RELATED WEEK FOUR CONTENT   <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2024/09/week-four-round-up/">– Week Four Round Up</a>   WEEK FOUR'S TOP PERFORMERS   [player_tooltip player_id='268315' first='AJ' last='Lyons-Jerrell'] - Senior Running Back/Linebacker - Pocola   Following a tough loss to Vian, Pocola bounced back with a 46-22 win over Warner. Leading the way was a balanced offensive attack and senior [player_tooltip player_id='268315' first='AJ' last='Lyons-Jerrell'] dominated on the ground as a running back. He would finish the night with nearly 250 yards on the ground and two touchdowns. He also turned around and had six tackles and an interception on the defensive side of the ball. The Pocola senior is one of the better two-way players in the state because we keep flipping back and forth on what we like him better as. He's a terrific linebacker but clearly a productive and talented running back.   [player_tooltip player_id='294262' first='Alex' last='Shieldnight'] - Senior Defensive Lineman - Wagoner   Wagoner went on the road and dominated Fort Gibson on Friday night. The Bulldogs jumped out to a 28-0 lead in the first quarter and coasted to a 54-14 victory. The defense was dominant early on and leading the way once again was Oklahoma commit [player_tooltip player_id='294262' first='Alex' last='Shieldnight'] along the defensive line. The Wagoner senior would finish the night with 11 tackles, a sack and countless quarterback pressures. One of the more underrated part of Shieldnight's game is his work at tight end. He also had four catches for 30 yards on offense but make no mistake, he's a game-wrecker on defense.   [player_tooltip player_id='1109329' first='Anthony' last='Keys'] - Sophomore Running Back - Millwood   Millwood had a record-setting night on Friday as they beat Blackwell 65-6. The Falcons scored 51 points in the first quarter of play. Needless to say, it felt like they were scoring on every single snap. The Falcons were incredibly balanced offensively but one of the more productive players in the win was sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='1109329' first='Anthony' last='Keys'] at running back. He finished with 68 yards and three touchdowns on six carries. He also had a 38-yard touchdown reception in the win. Keys and the Falcons will look to continue this momentum next week when they host Jones in a 2A-1 clash featuring top three teams.   [player_tooltip player_id='1005610' first='Austin' last='Solis'] - Senior Running Back - Mangum   Mangum senior running back [player_tooltip player_id='1005610' first='Austin' last='Solis'] is now 4-4 on Top Performer posts. Mangum wins, Solis stars and gets on the Sunday breakdown. That's how it's worked as the Tigers have jumped out to a 3-0 start. Mangum had no problems improving to 4-0 on the year with a 70-12 victory over Apache on Friday night and Solis might have actually had his best performance of the four so far this season. He finished the night with nearly 200 yards and three touchdowns on 16 carries. He also had a 22-yard reception and was productive on defense from the linebacker position.   [player_tooltip player_id='434307' first='Barrett' last='Travis'] - Senior Running Back - Heritage Hall   Heritage Hall had a rematch with North Rock Creek from their first round meeting a year ago. They beat the Cougars 35-20 and senior running back [player_tooltip player_id='434307' first='Barrett' last='Travis'] led the way to a quick start. He finished the night with over 150 yards and a touchdown on the ground and also had nearly 50 yards and a touchdown as a receiver. Travis helped lead the Chargers to a 29-0 halftime lead and they would cruise to the big win to open up district play. Travis was one of the players that we highlighted last week as one to watch heading into week four. With over 200 yards of offense, he lived up to the hype.   [player_tooltip player_id='595746' first='Behrett' last='Boyd'] - Senior Linebacker - Norman   Any chance we get to write about Norman senior linebacker Behr Boyd we jump at it. They shut out Edmond North 30-0 and Boyd continued to show why he's one of the best linebackers in the state. Boyd would finish the night with 13 tackles, three of them coming for a loss and he also finished the night with four sacks. Boyd is criminally underrated as a linebacker prospect in the state's 2025 class. He's productive on the field and as a track athlete as well. And finally, Boyd has the perfect name for a linebacker but that's just our opinion. Boyd and the Tigers have jumped out to a 4-0 start.   [player_tooltip player_id='215570' first='Brady' last='Mcadoo'] - Senior Wide Receiver - Tuttle   Tuttle remained unbeaten on the season with a 48-7 victory over Ardmore on Friday night. Senior wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='215570' first='Brady' last='Mcadoo'] continues to remind us why he's one of the more dynamic players in Class 4A with another stellar performance in multiple departments. As a wide receiver, Mcadoo finished with nearly 100 yards on four receptions. But he also took two punts back for scores and finished the night with over 200 all purpose yards in the win. We've written about this a few times but the Tigers have some serious firepower on offense and Mcadoo is a player that can produce in multiple ways.   [player_tooltip player_id='593641' first='Caleb' last='Hawkins'] - Senior Running Back/Defensive Back - North Rock Creek   It's not often that a player gets on this breakdown following a loss but senior standout and North Texas commit [player_tooltip player_id='593641' first='Caleb' last='Hawkins'] was arguably the best player on the field in the loss to Heritage Hall. Hawkins would finish with nearly 200 yards receiving on four catches and he also added over 50 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Heritage Hall definitely did a good job of limiting what he could do in the ground game. Hawkins also turned around and finished the night with 15 tackles. The Cougars couldn't overcome the 29-0 halftime deficit but they definitely still had a solid showing.   [player_tooltip player_id='1333179' first='Carter' last='Nathman'] - Junior Wide Receiver - Cascia Hall   Cascia Hall bounced back from a week two loss to Metro Christian with a 38-7 victory over Inola on Friday night. The Commandos had to wait a week to get that taste out of their mouth but they looked solid in the district opener. The Commandos were rolling on offense and put up some serious numbers on that side of the ball in the win. Leading the way was junior wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1333179' first='Carter' last='Nathman'] as he continues to be one of the top playmakers in this Cascia Hall offense. He finished the night with nearly 150 yards receiving and four touchdowns on five catches. That's efficient and explosive production.   [player_tooltip player_id='1101281' first='Carter' last='Ricke'] - Junior Quarterback - Lincoln Christian   After a week off following a brutal non-district slate, 3A's top-ranked Lincoln Christian returned to the field with a 49-7 win over Stigler. Junior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='1101281' first='Carter' last='Ricke'] would have his best performance of his young career at quarterback, throwing for a little over 300 yards and five touchdowns on 12-14 passing. So far through the first month, most of Lincoln Christian production has come from the ground game and Ricke hasn't had to throw the ball a lot. But when Ricke threw the ball on Friday night, more times than not it was working. The Bulldogs look like a big favorite to repeat in Class 3A.   [player_tooltip player_id='255022' first='Cooper' last='Parker'] - Senior Quarterback/Linebacker - Bixby   It was the game of the week across Oklahoma and it was a decisive one as #2 Bixby beat #4 Jenks 21-7 in a rematch of last year's 6A-1 state championship game. We mentioned in our Week Four Round Up post how the two-quarterback system worked to perfection on Friday night and we could have picked either guy. But we're going with senior [player_tooltip player_id='255022' first='Cooper' last='Parker'] for his production on defense as well. Parker finished the night with 81 yards on the ground and a pair of Bixby touchdowns on 18 carries. He also had a handful of tackles and helped lead a Bixby defense that shut down the Jenks rushing attack.   [player_tooltip player_id='922962' first='Connor' last='Payne'] - Senior - Berryhill   It's been a tough start to the season for Berryhill as the Chiefs played a tough non-district schedule and started the year 0-3. But Berryhill opened up district play with a dominant 49-0 win over Cleveland on Friday night and senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='922962' first='Connor' last='Payne'] had a strong showing. He would finish with a little over 150 yards and two touchdowns on 11-15 passing. He also added 30 yards and a touchdown on four carries. Payne is a quarterback that we really like moving forward and as Berryhill gets further into district play, it wouldn't surprise us to see the Chiefs to completely turn things around.   [player_tooltip player_id='917724' first='Darien' last='Dansby'] - Senior Running Back - Bristow   Bristow bounced back from a tough loss to Wagoner by getting a big district win over Victory Christian on Friday night. The Pirates would win 31-20 and the running game could not be stopped as senior running back [player_tooltip player_id='917724' first='Darien' last='Dansby'] shined bright. He would finish the night with nearly 250 yards on 23 carries and he scored all four of Bristow's touchdowns in the win. Dansby is also a terrific linebacker and finished with eight tackles on defense. But what gets the Bristow senior on this breakdown is his production on offense as he had one of the better performances of his career in the win.   [player_tooltip player_id='209872' first='David' last='McComb'] - Senior Quarterback - Edmond Memorial   On Thursday night, Edmond Memorial went on the road and took care of business, winning 21-6 over Norman North. Senior quarterback and Kansas commit [player_tooltip player_id='209872' first='David' last='McComb'] led the way as the Bulldogs were able to move the ball up and down the field. McComb had a complete game, with nearly 200 yards and a touchdown on 14-25 passing. The Kansas commit also had over 100 yards and a touchdown on six carries. McComb's rushing touchdown was one of the more impressive runs we've seen this season as he barreled over a defender and raced another 30 yards for a score.   [player_tooltip player_id='805093' first='Deetrick' last='Beavers'] - Senior Running Back - Shawnee   Shawnee is 3-1 and the Wolves look like a team that could make some noise in Class 5A. They rolled to a 28-7 victory over East Central. Senior running back [player_tooltip player_id='805093' first='Deetrick' last='Beavers'] would finish the night with nearly 200 yards, two touchdowns on 20 carries. Beavers would also finish the night with 45 receiving yards on two receptions. Beavers also turned around and made plenty of plays on the defensive side of the ball but it's what he was able to do on the offensive side of the ball that got our attention. Shawnee rolled on offense and now take some momentum into their week five game with Booker T Washington.   [player_tooltip player_id='1530080' first='Dom' last='Forbes'] - Sophomore Wide Receiver - Sand Springs   Sand Springs won their second straight game on Friday night, beating Bartlesville 41-20 and for the second straight week, the Sandite passing game was impossible to stop. Last week, quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='449993' first='Easton' last='Webb'] would get the spotlight after throwing for well over 400 yards. This week, it's one of his receivers as sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='1530080' first='Dom' last='Forbes'] had one of the best performances from a wide receiver that we've seen this season. The sophomore finished with 261 yards and four touchdowns on just seven receptions. He has been a nightmare to defend over the last two weeks.   [player_tooltip player_id='1286538' first='Jacob' last='Gain'] - Senior Wide Receiver - Grove   Grove remained unbeaten with a 21-20 victory over Catoosa on Friday night. The Ridgerunners would have to rally to get the big district win but senior wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1286538' first='Jacob' last='Gain'] played a big role and was incredibly productive. Gain would finish the night with nearly 200 yards receiving and two touchdowns on five receptions. We really like the firepower that Grove has on offense and it was on full display in the win over the Indians. Now, Grove has one of their tougher games on the schedule as they host unbeaten Cushing. That should be one of the top games in Class 4A for week five.   [player_tooltip player_id='379243' first='Jax' last='Bernard'] - Senior Quarterback - Fairview   Class A-1's top-ranked Fairview won their 34th consecutive game with a 69-34 win over Watonga. The Fairview offense was firing on all cylinders and there were several players we could have given the nod to on a unit that scored nearly 70 points. But senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='379243' first='Jax' last='Bernard'] gets the nod here as he would throw for well over 200 yards and three touchdowns on 13-20 passing and run for 70 yards and a touchdown on five carries. It still blows our mind how Bernard isn't being talked about more statewide as one of Oklahoma's best quarterbacks. He's been that guy for a while now.   [player_tooltip player_id='1293008' first='Jayden' last='Ellen'] - Junior Running Back - Checotah   Defense was incredibly optional in the Checotah-Locust Grove game on Friday night. There were 110 combined points between the two teams but it was Checotah coming out on top with a 68-42 victory. There were a few Checotah players to pick from that put up some monster numbers but we settled on junior [player_tooltip player_id='1293008' first='Jayden' last='Ellen'] at the running back position. Ellen would finish the night with 275 yards and five touchdowns on the ground after carrying the ball 19 times. When it comes to Checotah, a lot of eyes shift to OU commit [player_tooltip player_id='353415' first='Elijah' last='Thomas'] but it was Ellen that couldn't be stopped Friday.   [player_tooltip player_id='936775' first='Jaylan' last='Woody'] - Senior Running Back - Westmoore   Westmoore got their first win of the season with a 31-21 victory over Yukon on Friday night. Leading the way for the Jaguars in the win was senior [player_tooltip player_id='936775' first='Jaylan' last='Woody'] at the running back position. Woody would finish the night as a workhorse back for the Westmoore offense. He had 25 carries for nearly 150 yards and three touchdowns. Woody came over to Westmoore from Midwest City in the summer and he's hoping to help lead the Jaguars back to the 6A-1 playoffs. After somewhat of a slow start, the Jaguars are also hoping to take some momentum from this win to help them the rest of the way.   Jefferson Hodge - Sophomore Quarterback - Mount Saint Mary   For the second straight week, Mount Saint Mary sophomore quarterback Jefferson Hodge is on the Top Performer breakdown after he helped lead the Rockets to a 63-0 win over Crooked Oak on Friday night. Last week, he had a dominating dual-threat performance in the win over Casady and he was back at it again this week. Hodge finished with over 100 passing yards and two touchdowns and also added over 100 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Hodge has helped guide Mount Saint Mary to a 4-0 start but they have their toughest four-game stretch of the season coming up.   [player_tooltip player_id='1325096' first='Lane' last='Kyler'] - Senior Wide Receiver - Pawhuska   After suffering a tough home loss to Woodland, it was time for Pawhuska to bounce back and they did in a major way with a 52-20 victory over Oklahoma Union. The Huskies are still one of the teams to beat in a top-heavy Class A-1. Senior wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1325096' first='Lane' last='Kyler'] has had a terrific start to his senior season and he was lights out once again in the win over Oklahoma Union. He finished the night with nearly 150 yards and three touchdowns on nine catches. He also caught a pair of two-point conversions. Pawhuska's passing attack was limited in week three but they bounced back in a major way Friday.   [player_tooltip player_id='1045558' first='Luke' last='Quinter'] - Junior Running Back/Linebacker - Bethel   After starting the season with an 0-2 record, Bethel has won their last two games and Friday night's win over Prague was a big one for their playoff hopes. It's only week four but that win will definitely put them in a better position moving forward. Leading the way for the Wildcats was junior [player_tooltip player_id='1045558' first='Luke' last='Quinter'] and he impacted the game on both sides of the ball. He finished with well over 100 yards and two touchdowns on the ground at running back. He also had ten tackles and led the team in tackles for loss from the linebacker position. Quinter helped rally the Wildcats to a big week four win.   [player_tooltip player_id='1569774' first='Maddax' last='Mobly'] - Junior Running Back/Linebacker - Sulphur   Sulphur came out and absolutely dominated their district opener, winning 48-0 over Perkins-Tryon. The Bulldogs are now 3-1 on the season and look like a very serious contender in Class 3A. And what's scary is they've had multiple players step up each week. This week, it was junior running back and linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='1569774' first='Maddax' last='Mobly'] after he dominated on both sides of the ball. He would finish the night with nearly 150 yards and a touchdown on the ground and he also had a 70-yard touchdown reception. Mobly also finished the night with eight tackles in the win on the defensive side of the ball.   [player_tooltip player_id='655747' first='Mason' last='Schubert'] - Senior Quarterback - Stillwater   Following a shutout loss to Carl Albert, Stillwater's offense was ready to get back on track in week four and they did just that. The Pioneers rolled to a 66-20 win over Lawton Eisenhower and senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='655747' first='Mason' last='Schubert'] might have had his best game as a Pioneer in the win. Schubert threw for nearly 300 yards and five touchdowns on 22-28 passing. He also added over 50 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the ground. Schubert is no stranger to this breakdown already this season after a solid start to his senior year. And Schubert and the Pioneers should roll over the next two weeks.   [player_tooltip player_id='424595' first='Masyn' last='Wright'] - Junior Athlete - Vian   Last week, we added Vian junior [player_tooltip player_id='424595' first='Masyn' last='Wright'] to our PRZ-Oklahoma Player Of The Year Watchlist and that was a decision we made even before his performance on Thursday. Then he came out and scored on the first four times he touched the ball and it solidified our opinion that he truly is one of the best players in Oklahoma this season. In a 64-6 win over Spiro, Wright would finish with nearly 150 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, a 31-yard touchdown reception and he had a pick six. Literally, the first four times he touched the ball, he ended up in the end zone and he scored in three different ways.   [player_tooltip player_id='479389' first='Matrail' last='Lopez'] - Senior Athlete - Idabel   On Thursday night, Idabel made quite the statement with a dominant 41-7 win over Holland Hall. We mentioned it earlier this weekend how it was Idabel's two D1 commits that led the way and Oklahoma State commit [player_tooltip player_id='479389' first='Matrail' last='Lopez'] reminded us why he's one of the more dynamic players in the state. We had him listed as a player to watch coming into week four and he certainly lived up to the hype. He finished with six catches for 50 yards, ran for a touchdown, had an interception and took a punt back for a touchdown. It doesn't matter if it's offense, defense or special teams, Lopez impacts the game.   [player_tooltip player_id='476091' first='Mayor' last='Morgan'] - Junior Running Back - Choctaw   After dropping two straight, Choctaw went on the road looking to get back in the win column and their offense put on a show with a 56-40 win over Piedmont to open the district slate with a victory. The Yellowjackets were lights out on the offensive side of the ball, racking up over 500 yards of total offense. Junior running back [player_tooltip player_id='476091' first='Mayor' last='Morgan'] made up a lot of that total by himself. He finished then ight with nearly 250 yards and three touchdowns on 19 carries. This game was tied at halftime but Morgan and the Yellowjackets would run away with this district opener in the final two quarters.   [player_tooltip player_id='1549980' first='Milton' last='Alford'] - Senior Running Back - Putnam City North   Putnam City North continues to be an interesting team to watch in Class 6A-2. They are now 3-1 on the season and have won their last three, including a 49-0 district opener against rival Putnam City West. Senior running back [player_tooltip player_id='1549980' first='Milton' last='Alford'] had a terrific showing in the win. He finished the night with a little over 250 yards and five touchdowns on just 14 carries. It's still early on but the Panthers look like a team that can definitely make the playoffs and if they have Alford running like he ran in week four, they could end up making a significant run once they get there.   [player_tooltip player_id='1719591' first='Roman' last='Tucker'] - Junior Quarterback - Cushing   You won't find many performances in week four that were better than this one. Cushing remained unbeaten on the season with a 35-3 victory over Skiatook on Friday night. Junior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='1719591' first='Roman' last='Tucker'] was perfect in the victory. And we do mean perfect as he would finish the night with over 300 yards and four touchdowns on 15-15 passing. It's tough to go 15-15 at practice or in 7v7 or whatever but to do it in a game is pretty impressive. He also added 22 yards on the ground and had seven tackles on defense. Tucker has Cushing as one of the teams to look out for in Class 4A moving forward.   [player_tooltip player_id='1005608' first='Tanner' last='Perry'] - Senior Quarterback - Pauls Valley   This week was the first week where Pauls Valley senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='1005608' first='Tanner' last='Perry'] was healthy and the Panthers needed him to be at 100 percent as they rallied to beat Kingfisher 43-40. They trailed 40-22 going into the fourth quarter but Perry helped lead the comeback victory. Perry finished the night throwing for just over 200 yards and two touchdowns on 12-19 passing. He also had well over 100 yards and a touchdown on the ground after carrying the ball 16 times. The 1-2 punch of Perry and Knighten in the Pauls Valley backfield was tough to stop once they got rolling and will be moving forward.   [player_tooltip player_id='1161908' first='Teaguen' last='Collins'] - Junior Athlete - Muldrow   We mentioned this in our Week Four Round Up post but it's very clear to us that Muldrow junior [player_tooltip player_id='1161908' first='Teaguen' last='Collins'] is quickly becoming one of the stars in Class 3A this season. The Bulldogs remained unbeaten with a 42-41 win over Eufaula in double overtime and Collins was once again the star leading the way for Muldrow. The junior finished with a little over 100 yards passing and a touchdown. He also had 200 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Collins is dynamic, productive and the more Muldrow wins, the more attention he should get around the state and from college coaches.   [player_tooltip player_id='449184' first='TJ' last='Bradford'] - Junior Running Back - Newcastle   Newcastle junior running back [player_tooltip player_id='449184' first='TJ' last='Bradford'] was back with a vengeance after missing the last two games with an injury. He was hungry to get back on the field and made quick work of his time. He would run for nearly 200 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 14 carries as the Racers would beat Duncan 60-7 on Friday night. With the win, Newcastle snapped a three-game skid after playing three of the best teams in Class 4A. Newcastle now has their next three games away from home, starting in week five against Midwest City. Having a healthy Bradford will help the Racers in district play.   [player_tooltip player_id='211570' first='Tres' last='Lorah'] - Senior Quarterback - Elgin   Elgin senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='211570' first='Tres' last='Lorah'] is one of the more experienced signal callers in Class 4A and he (among many other position groups) is a big reason why we have the Owls atop our Class 4A rankings. They made quick work of Woodward in week four, rolling to a 63-0 victory. Lorah was nearly perfect in the passing game, throwing for well over 200 yards and four touchdowns on 12-13 passing. When you look at Elgin on paper, it's easy to focus in on the running game because that's a big strength. But having an experienced and talented quarterback like Lorah leading the way at QB is big.   [player_tooltip player_id='806158' first='Trey' last='Bennett'] - Senior Quarterback - Woodland   Class A-2's top-ranked Woodland remained unbeaten with a 65-12 win over Porter on Friday night. The Cougars were able to take their starters out by halftime after senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='806158' first='Trey' last='Bennett'] led an offensive explosion in the first two quarters. he finished with nearly 250 yards on 15-18 passing and five touchdowns in the win. Woodland definitely looks like the team to beat in Class A-2 after the first month of this season. Bennett is a big reason why with his abilities at the quarterback position but don't forget that he can also turn around and play defense at a very high level.
