2A West Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Will Tarallo Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Basalt's Will Tarallo, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Tarallo rushed for 194 yards and three touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (111.5). Those 194 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Tarallo is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Coal Ridge on Friday. When Tarallo last faced the Titans back in October of 2023, he rushed for 172 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.6 yards per carry.

Dylan Mika Turns in Season-Best Performance
Aspen was led to victory by Dylan Mika, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Mika rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries, and also picked up 42 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the year, Mika has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 123.2 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 25 rushing yards per game.

A Season-Best Performance from Angel Hernandez Leads Coal Ridge over Moffat County
Angel Hernandez produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Coal Ridge to the win on Friday. Hernandez picked up a sack and made eight total tackles (2.5 for loss). He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles (2.5 for loss).
The win (which was Coal Ridge's fourth in a row) raised their record to 4-1. Hernandez and Coal Ridge will square off against Basalt at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

This season, Miller has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 156.8 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 43.6 passing yards per game.

Will Daniel Makes It Two for Basalt
The second Basalt player making an appearance here is Will Daniel, and for good reason. He rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making ten total tackles and defending a pass.
Daniel is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Coal Ridge on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Daniel saw the Titans), he rushed for 132 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries.
