EDITOR'S NOTE: Coaching staffs, please send weekly and season statistics to ensure your athlete is included in top performers and our Top-10 lists by emailing sports@amarillo.com

Max Neff, Michael Campos and Bryce Lynn, Pampa

Neff rushed for 335 yards and two touchdowns, while Campos ran for 149 yards and contributed four total scores including the game-winning touchdown pass. Lynn was the receiver of that pass which gave him seven catches for 118 yards and two touchdowns.

Mason Graham, Connor Haelzle, and Jameson Garcia, Amarillo High

Garcia hauled in four catches for 111 yards and three touchdowns, while Haelzle caught six passes for 136 yards and two touchdowns. So their quarterback must've had a pretty good game, right? Well, that depends. Is 300 yards and seven touchdowns through the air and an eighth on the ground a good game? Then yes, Mason Graham had a good game.

Kalub Ramirez, Tony Salazar, and Nick Torres, Hereford

The Whitefaces didn't get the win, but it wasn't these kids' fault. Ramirez threw three touchdowns, Salazar ran for 147 yards and a touchdown and Torres had four catches for 104 yards and a score.

Sam Johnson and Javin Cash, Canyon

With quarterback Derrek Clements out, Canyon had to rely on the run game even more than normal. The ground attack got the job done as Johnson rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns while Cash ran for 128 yards and three touchdowns on offense. Cash was just as outstanding on defense with a strip return for a score, 16 tackles and an interception.

Bryce Braden Stratford

It was closer than most people expected, but Stratford got the win thanks to an outstanding performance at quarterback. Braden threw a touchdown and rushed for two more while also compiling 111 yards on the ground.

Emmanuel Ibanez and Aurelio Medrano, Dumas

Ibanez was a true dual threat in going 10-of-12 for three touchdowns while also rushing for 136 yards and three scores on just nine carries. Medrano was a one man show with 18 tackles, two of which came for a loss.

Alexis Rivas, Friona

Normally it's Mario Bautista leading the way, but it was Rivas who had the big game this week. He rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns in a win over Slaton.

Luis Flavela and Kade Crosby, Dalhart

Flavela rushed for 184 yards while Crosby hauled in five catches for 185 yards and two touchdowns as Dalhart got the win.

Logan Gray and Avery Adame, Borger

Daniel Sianez and Irvin Torres, Muleshoe

Sianez had 25 carries for 170 yards and two touchdowns while Torres hauled in eight catches for 113 yards and two touchdowns that came in the fourth.

Isaiah Brown and Rowdy Barnes, Boys Ranch

Brown, the senior quarterback, had 171 yards and three touchdowns in a win to move the Roughriders to 4-2 on the season. Barnes had 10 tackles, three for a loss and a forced fumble.
