Caeden Herrera Delivers Electric Performance Vs Pueblo Centennial
Another Pueblo South player making an appearance on this list is Caeden Herrera. He threw for 159 yards and four touchdowns while completing 88.2% of his passes.
Pueblo Centennial had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Herrera it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Herrera saw the Bulldogs), he threw for 76 yards and four touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 30 yards.

Big Game from Jones As Discovery Canyon Won 49-6
The second Discovery Canyon player making an appearance here is Hayden Jones, and for good reason. He threw for 132 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 61 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Jones has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 79.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had seven rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 13.
