Adam Ball, Mullan/St. Regis RB: Ball ran for 165 yards and three touchdowns, but that’s not even the most impressive part. He did so on just four carries (41.3 yards per carry) in a 72-20 blowout win over Lakeside.
Max Clark, Capital QB: Clark went 24-of-31 for 346 yards and five TDs as the Eagles cruised to a 41-11 win over Centennial.

Taylor Freeman, Rigby WR: Again, when the Trojans needed a spark – the ex-quarterback gave it to them with eight catches for 115 yards and two TDs in a come-from-behind 28-14 victory over defending 4A champion Skyline
Thompson Goodfellow, Middleton RB: Goodfellow scored nearly every time he touched the ball. He ran for five TDs and 64 yards on just six carries, while also blocking a punt return for a touchdown in a 70-16 shellacking over Caldwell.

Ryken Echo Hawk, Pocatello RB: Echo Hawk ran for 111 yards and two scores on just 10 carries in a 46-20 win over Jackson Hole (WY).
Cruz Hepburn, Lewiston RB: Hepburn recorded his third consecutive 100-yard game with 150 yards and three TDs as the Bengals blew past Clarkston (WA) 54-13.

Javonte King, Blackfoot WR: King hauled in five receptions for 137 yards and a TD. But the real highlight was his 38-yard Odell Beckham Jr.-esque catch in the third quarter that turned the tide of the game in a 35-21 win over Snake River.
Colten Meyer, Horseshoe Bend QB: Meyer put up 377 yards (253 passing, 124 rushing) and five TDs just by himself. He also racked up a team-high 13 tackles in a 30-26 win over Notus.
