2A San Pedro Top Player Performances of the Week

Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!

Landon Ward Sets Career High in Rushing Yards

Starting off the list is Willcox's Landon Ward, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Ward made three total tackles and defended four passes, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 58 yards.

Willcox is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Ward and Willcox will face off against Benson at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Bisbee Gets a Boost from Lopez in 35-21 Victory

Sebastian Lopez was instrumental in extending Bisbee's winning streak to five on Friday. Lopez was unstoppable, throwing for 255 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes, while also rushing for 40 yards. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble, making eight total tackles, and defending three passes in addition to snagging an interception.

Lopez and Bisbee will venture away from home to challenge Tombstone at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Pumas had to take a loss when they last met the Yellow Jackets, but Lopez had little to do with the loss: he threw for 184 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 50 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Flint Davis Dazzles in Benson Victory

Flint Davis was instrumental in extending Benson's winning streak to three on Saturday. Nobody could stop Davis as he rushed for 150 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.

Benson's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-3. Davis and Benson will play host again on Friday to welcome Willcox, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.

Jmiah Wallis and Co. Win Third in a Row

Tombstone picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jmiah Wallis. Wallis was dynamite, rushing for 148 yards and two touchdowns. His longest rush was for an incredible 85 yards.

Tombstone's victory was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-3. Wallis and Tombstone will square off against Bisbee at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

DJ Elias Turns in Season-Best Performance

Tombstone was led to victory by DJ Elias, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Elias rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 81 yards and three touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 65 yards.

This season, Elias has thrown 6 touchdowns while averaging 118 passing yards per game.
