Week 0 Prime Time Players Part 2

The standout performances were impressive this weekend in the state of Arkansas. Prep RedZone Arkansas was able to split the list in two this weekend and give the players that performed well some time in the spotlight. We are going to shine a spotlight on guys that played well this weekend. With all of the game from the weekend in the books, lets see the guys that stood out. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="75135" first="Carston" last="Poole"]-Quarterback-Prescott-2023</strong> The Prescott quarterback got off to an excellent start for the 2021 season. Poole passed for 245 yards and four touchdowns off of 12/17 passing. He was factored in heavily in the victory over Newport. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="152083" first="Chris" last="Gannaway"]-Running Back-Bryant-2023</strong> Gannaway has speed to burn, and he can get into the second level of defenders in the blink of an eye. Gannaway was extremely impressive against Benton to start the season. Churning out 230 all-purpose yards and tacking on three touchdowns in the 42-3 win over Benton in the Salt Bowl. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="92740" first="Jaylen" last="Hopson"]-Running Back-Prescott-2022</strong> The Curley Wolves were clicking on all cylinders against Newport this week. [player_tooltip player_id="92740" first="Jaylen" last="Hopson"] racked up 400 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns against the Greyhounds. Prescott has plenty of guys that can hurt you from anywhere on the field. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="157343" first="Cameron" last="Vanzant"]-Quarterback-Farmington-2024</strong> The Farmington Cardinals offense got off to a hot start to being the season on Friday night.

Dyer-Jones rushed 187 yards against Little Rock Central and proceeded to punch the ball in the end zone four times. Dyer-Jones is a player to keep an eye on, he has the potential to build on this performance. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="75121" first="Zaire" last="Green"]-Running Back-White Hall-2022</strong> [player_tooltip player_id="75121" first="Zaire" last="Green"] made the most of the carries he received on Friday night.

Robinson. The Pulaski Academy Bruin was able to find the end zone three times in the victory over Robinson. Clearly, the Pulaski Academy Bruins are still a loaded football team this season.
