6A Region II District 12 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!
A Season-Best Effort from Brandon Brown Jr Leads Shoemaker over Bryan
On Friday, Shoemaker got the W thanks in part to Brandon Brown Jr playing the best football he has all season. Brown Jr rushed for 133 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also picked up 57 receiving yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the season, Brown Jr has averaged 57.5 receiving yards per game.

Anthony King's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Copperas Cove over Harker Heights
Anthony King continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his third-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least 315 passing yards. He threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.8% of his passes. He is becoming a predictor of Copperas Cove's success: when he posts at least 250 passing yards the team is 2-1 (and 1-3 when he doesn't).
On the year, King has thrown 20 touchdowns while averaging 257.3 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had four passing touchdowns.

Shoemaker Gets a Boost from Wade in 35-21 Victory
Another Shoemaker player making an appearance on this list is Tyrieke Wade. He rushed for 82 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 188 yards while completing 77.8% of his passes.

Trishstin Glass Makes It Two for Copperas Cove
The second Copperas Cove player making an appearance here is Trishstin Glass, and for good reason. He picked up 177 receiving yards and two touchdowns. His receiving production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 124 receiving yards dating back to last season.
Harker Heights's probably not too fond of Glass given he always seems to get the better of them. When Glass last faced the Knights back in October of 2023, he picked up 167 receiving yards and a touchdown.
