He also ran for a TD giving him 7 total on the night. The senior QB's ability to move around the pocket and make improvised plays stood out on the film and showed impressive accuracy to all areas of the field. McNeil is one of Nevada's most underrated senior QBs and currently leads the state in passing yards with 1,108 and 15 TDs through four games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/McneilTyson10/status/1966957502463095075","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/McneilTyson10/status/1966957502463095075 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1803015"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed299d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rodriguez handled 20 carries for 208 yards and 2 TDs in McQueen's 44-6 win over Damonte Ranch on Friday. The 5'8"/195 senior has been a breakout playmaker for the Lancers with three games over 150+ rushing yards and sits at second in the state in total rushing yards with 761 and 8 TDs through 5 games. He's a tough, physical ball-carrier that can break tackles and rack up yards-after-contact with his contact balance and low center-of-gravity. Rodriguez is working his way into the Nevada RB rankings with his performances on the field this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17836577/68c6248f2612daceb069f3a9' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed2b71"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1218616"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed2bd1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Love amassed 241 yards and 3 TDs on just 8 carries for an average of 30 YPC in Fernley's 54-14 victory over South Tahoe. Nevada's leading rusher is already less than 20 yards away from a third straight 1,000 yard campaign and is averaging nearly 200 rushing yards per game through Fernley's 4-1 start to the season. He showed his downhill speed and ability to make plays between the OTs on multiple explosive runs through the teeth of the defense. Love is firmly on track to repeat as Nevada's leading rushing in 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17916466/68c634c82a48f2dfd6d30c87' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed2bfa"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["876717"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed2c47"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Maveni posted 6 total tackles, 2 sacks, and 2 TFLs in Reed's 42-35 win over West Park on Friday. The #3 DL in PRZ NV's 2026 rankings has recorded a sack and 2+ TFLs in each of Reed's first three games as he continues to show the power and disruptiveness he brings to the defensive front-seven. He's a versatile defender that can line up over OTs or OGs and packs a high upside combination of strength, violence, and athleticism. Maveni leads the team in sacks (4) and TFLs (6) through three games. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Ray59712548/status/1967035695022981550","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Ray59712548/status/1967035695022981550 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1584952"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68c893aed2c9a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jackson racked up 300 rushing yards and 3 TDs on just 9 carries and took an interception for a TD in Douglas' 45-0 shutout of North Valleys. The state's #6 ATH showed why he's one of the best two-way players in the state with the combination of size, physicality, and athleticism he brings to the table. He showed his downhill speed and power trucking through a defender for a highlight run and averaged over 30 YPC in his standout performance. Jackson has rushed for 150+ yards and 2+ TDs in three of Douglas' four games so far. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ZackJackson007/status/1967057475984912715","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ZackJackson007/status/1967057475984912715 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">More Standouts</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1579076' first='Nathan' last='Simmons'] (WR / 2026 / Bishop Manogue) - 6 catches, 125 yards, TD</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='281928' first='Brandon' last='Mann'] (QB / 2026 / Bishop Manogue) - 19/24, 261 yards, 3 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1825957' first='Zeke' last='Peterson'] (EDGE / 2028 / Bishop Manogue) - 9 total tackles, 3 sacks, 3 TFLs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1576896' first='Coy' last='Jones'] (WR / 2026 / Elko) - 2 INTs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1576418' first='Joey' last='Machado'] (LB / 2026 / Fernley) - 12 total tackles, 3 TFLs, sack</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1558882' first='Brooks' last='Porter'] (LB / 2026 / McQueen) - 10 total tackles, 2 TFLs, sack</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1615990' first='Shaysan' last='Rivero'] (LB / 2026 / Reed) - 5 carries, 107 yards, 2 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1544593' first='Braylon' last='Wilson'] (QB / 2026 / Reno) - 328 total yards, 2 rushing TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1892541' first='Jackson' last='Sundeen'] (WR / 2026 / Spanish Springs) - 8 catches, 174 yards, 2 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1343857' first='Brady' last='Hummel'] (ATH / 2026 / Spanish Springs) - 9 catches, 112 yards, 2 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1660287' first='Ivan' last='Esparza'] (RB / 2026 / Truckee) - 30 carries, 201 yards, TD</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
