A Season-Best Performance from Marquez Xavion Ziair Davis Leads Kingwood over Atascocita
Kingwood came up short on Friday despite Marquez Xavion Ziair Davis delivering his best game to date. Xavion Ziair Davis wasn't messing around, rushing for 201 yards and three touchdowns, while also catching a touchdown. The contest was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 50 yards.
For the season, Xavion Ziair Davis has run in 13 touchdowns while averaging 144.7 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 54.45
Thomas Posts Huge Game in 81-6 Victory
Blake Thomas was a major factor in Summer Creek's win over Goose Creek Memorial on Friday. Thomas was dynamite, throwing for 246 yards and four touchdowns while completing 89.5% of his passes, and also rushing for 43 yards.
Summer Creek's victory was their seventh straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Thomas will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Humble on Saturday.

Javienx Mouton Makes It Two for King
Another King player making an appearance on this list is Javienx Mouton. He wasn't messing around on Thursday, forcing two fumbles and making 15 total tackles (2.0 for loss). The match was his fourth straight with five or more total tackles.
For the season, Mouton has averaged 7.7 total tackles per game.
Gamescore: 30.75
Dominick Toulon Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Thursday, King got the W thanks in part to Dominick Toulon playing the best football he has all season. Toulon picked up two sacks and made seven total tackles (3.0 for loss). He is becoming a predictor of King's success: when he posts at least two sacks the team is 3-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
If history really does repeat itself, Toulon might just drop another big game when he faces off against Kingwood on Saturday. Toulon picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made 11 total tackles (5.0 for loss) the last time he and the Mustangs duked it out back in October of 2023.
