Sophomore RB Bronwyn Rios Bronwyn Rios 5'9" | 190 lbs | RB Reed | 2026 State NV continues to dominate the ground game for Reed’s offense.
Alejado led the game-winning TD drive against Central (Miami, FL) in the Gaels’ 39-35 victory over the #6 team in the country. He spread the ball around to leading receivers Audric Harris Audric Harris 6'0" | 175 lbs | WR Bishop Gorman | 2024 State NV and Brandon Gaea Brandon Gaea 6'1" | 185 lbs | WR Bishop Gorman | 2025 State NV totaling 390 yards and 3 TDs on 20/29 passing. He also showed athleticism and toughness scrambling for 58 yards against a physical Central defense. Bishop Gorman continues it’s tough out-of-state schedule with #13-Centennial (Corona, CA) this Friday.
Lofton showed his dominant athletic versatility with 3 red-zone rushing TDs and 4 catches for 70 yards and another TD. He punched in the game-winning TD with under a minute left to put Bishop Gorman up 39-35 over Central. The Miami-commit continued to prove that he’s an elite offensive weapon with a rare blend of size, athleticism, and body control.
Highlights
Rios dominated the ground game with 22 rushes for 240 yards and 3 TDs in Reed’s 38-24 win over Faith Lutheran. He’s a tough, physical runner between the tackles with a bruising downhill running style. He’s a difficult ball-carrier to wrap with a strong lower half and powerful leg drive through contact. Rios is one of the top rushers in the state through three games, averaging over 180/ypg with 500+ rushing yards and 5 TDs.
Jackson has steadily led Douglas’ rushing attack with 100+ yards in each of his first three games and hit his first 200-yard game of the season in the Tigers’ 31-0 win over Spanish Springs last Friday. He’s a fluid runner out of the backfield that can play in tight spaces around the LOS and finish with downhill physicality at the second/third levels. Jackson’s one of the state’s early leading rushers with over 400 yards and 6 TDs in Douglas’ three wins.
Lauofo accounted for both of Liberty’s touchdowns in their 20-14 win over Campbell (Ewa Beach, HI). The senior RB totaled 189 yards on 23 carries. He’s a compact, shifty back that can elude defenders with lateral agility and bounce off tackles with great contact balance. Lauofo totaled over 300 rushing yards in Liberty’s back-to-back wins over Hawaii opponents.

Las Vegas’ sophomore QB threw 4 TD passes to four different receivers and added a rushing score in the Wildcats’ 44-0 win over Rancho. He’s a nimble athlete that’s mobile from the pocket, can throw on the run, and scramble for yards when needed. Vibabul and Las Vegas host 2-0 Cactus Shadows (Cave Creek, AZ) this Friday.
