Game Balls: Week 6 – Central Texas

While it was nearly impossible to pick just 10 performances from this past week because of the numerous great performances overall, these are arguably the best 10 from week six. Check them out! 1. <strong>Colin Page (SR-RB) - Anderson High School (Austin, TX)</strong> Stats: 204 rushing yards, 5 rushing touchdowns, 4 receptions, 84 receiving yards Page continues to have just monstrous performances and this past week was arguably his best yet. The numbers speak for themselves, but his tape from the game also showcases not only his ability to run but be an effective receiver as well. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11332743/61572f85176cfa0ae89e7357" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 2. <strong>Dior Bradfield (SR-QB) - Weiss High School (Pflugerville, TX)</strong> Stats: 303 passing yards, 4 passing touchdowns Bradfield also had an excellent performance in the same game which included throwing a 40-yard touchdown pass. Bradfield has been an underrated quarterback in Central Texas but games like this one show why that should not be the case. 3. <strong>Daelen Alexander (JR-RB) - Weiss High School (Pflugerville, TX)</strong> Stats: 204 rushing yards, 3 rushing touchdowns Page was not the only one to reach 200-plus rushing yards. Alexander did as well which includes a 27-yard touchdown run to boot. 4. <strong>William Hammond (SO-QB) - Hutto High School (Hutto, TX)</strong> Stats: 121 passing yards, 1 passing touchdown, 142 rushing yards, 3 rushing touchdowns Hammond was not only accurate in his throwing but just had excellent agility whenever he ran the ball. He was lethal from each perspective, although he chose to run the ball more often. Still, this is an excellent young talent. 5. <strong>Trayvian McCoy-Gay (SR-RB) - Round Rock High School (Round Rock, TX)</strong> Stats: 133 rushing yards, 3 rushing touchdowns McCoy-Gay is an incredibly hard running back to tackle and usually requires two-three attempts to even bring him down. He has appeared many times on here this season and that trend will likely continue. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11533387/6159c12cc119d903b424f33a" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 6. <strong>Jalen Gilbert (JR-DB) - Round Rock High School (Round Rock, TX)</strong> Stats: 3 interceptions Talk about right place at the right time, multiple times. Gilbert walked away from this game showing excellent defensive back playmaking ability. He was excellent in his coverage, kept his eye on the ball while staying close to the receiver and play the ball intelligently, never going for a pick he could not grab. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/13081389/61589e76dfd8230e003afaad" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 7. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="121985" first="Jake" last="Iloka"] (JR-RB) - Pflugerville High School (Pflugerville, TX)</strong> Stats: 205 rushing yards, 4 rushing touchdowns Iloka was essentially unstoppable against Leander. He could not be tamed nor tackled and he made sure Leander will always remember him by scoring four touchdowns. The Pflugerville running game has continued to be impressive but his teammate also enjoyed success through the air. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15069815/6158ffe92347e108b8e885a7" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 8. <strong>Sidney Mbanasor (SR-WR) - Pflugerville High School (Pflugerville, TX)</strong> Stats: 3 receptions, 147 receiving yards, 3 receiving touchdowns Mbanasor towered over any opposing defensive back he came across and managed to score on each of his receptions. He was incredibly difficult to cover for any of the defensive backs and tough to tackle as well. Mbanasor is a giant with excellent hands and a great motor. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/12439433/6158cc93176cfa0ae8a03c87" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 9. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="121947" first="Mason" last="Shorb"] (JR-QB) - Rouse High School (Leander, TX)</strong> Stats: 291 passing yards, 5 passing touchdowns, 1 interception Shorb once again had an excellent performance with an insane five passing touchdowns. Once again, he showcased his canon of an arm and his ability to throw both inside and outside of the pocket. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/12965769/6158d8c97bd4180b1ce552b7" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> 10. <strong>Troy Oliver (SR-WR) - Rouse High School (Leander, TX)</strong> Stats: 4 receptions, 209 receiving yards, 3 receiving touchdowns One player that took advantage of Shorb's throwing abilities was Oliver who amassed 200-plus receiving yards. Although Shorb has to throw the ball well, same can be said for Oliver's catching ability and his ability to turn any play into a big one. Judging by the numbers, he did, scoring a touchdown almost on every reception. The duo of Oliver and Shorb has quickly become a dangerous one.
