6A Region I District 2 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!
Elijah Mccoy Has Career-Day on Friday
Starting off the list is Midland's Elijah McCoy, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday McCoy rushed for 360 yards and seven touchdowns while picking up 10.6 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 122 or more in the last eight games he's played.
Midland pushed their record up to 6-2 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season. McCoy and Midland will take on Midland Legacy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Aiden Serrano's Big Game Leads Midland Legacy over Permian
Midland Legacy found a leader in Aiden Serrano as the squad took down Permian on Friday. Serrano was dynamite, rushing for 94 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, while also picking up 67 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an incredible 70 yards.
Permian had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Serrano it was a similar story. When Serrano last faced the Panthers back in October of 2023, he picked up 93 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Phillips is crushing it when it comes to passing touchdowns: he's passed for at least three every time he's taken the field this season.
Frenship pushed their record up to 7-1 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Tigers challenges Permian at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
