Here are the best of the best from the last week of high school football action in and around the Panhandle.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Coaching staffs, please send weekly and season statistics to ensure your athlete is included in top performers and our Top-10 lists by emailing sports@amarillo.com.
Kameron Brown, Palo Duro
Avery Randle and Charlie Love Jr. made a series of big plays, as well, but Brown did a bit of everything to get PD as close as he could to victory before losing to Wylie. Brown rushed for 164 yards and two scores while blocking an extra point late.
JQ Ervin, Amarillo High
Ervin's total yardage doesn't jump out at you, but playing in his first game since the season opener, he scored two touchdowns in a 17-14 win. That's enough to get him a spot here.
Shayne Franks, Follett
What didn't Franks do this past week? He rushed for 172 yards and three touchdowns on 14 carries, compiled nine tackles and an interception on defense and went five-for-five on touchbacks on kickoffs.
Armando Lujan, Kagan Davis and Dawson Bennett, Sunray
Another week, another dominant passing performance from the Bobcats. Lujan went 22-of-46 for 328 yards and four touchdowns. He threw two interceptions, but also rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. Davis hauled in eight catches for 151 yards and two touchdowns while Bennett had eight catches for 124 yards and two touchdowns.
Dawson Jaco and Ivan Soto, Bushland
The Falcons had an outstanding bounce back win over Dalhart. Soto rushed for 124 yards on 13 carries while Jaco threw five touchdowns.
Bryce Braden and Mauricio Duran, Stratford
Duran carried the ball just eight times, but still managed to score twice and put up 107 yards on the ground. Braden went 4-for-4 passing for 111 yards and three touchdowns while rushing for another score.
Chris LaBue, Javin Cash and Elijah Smothermon, Canyon
LaBue ran for 155 yards and a touchdown on offense, while putting up 16 tackles, three of which went for a loss on defense. Cash was a force of his own with 21 tackles, six for a loss, and two pressures. And Smothermon? All he did was kick the game-winning, walk-off field goal for the Eagles as time expired.
Parker Dunnam and Emmanuel Ibanez, Dumas
Dunnam had 16 tackles and two pass breakups. Even in a losing effort, that's enough to get recognition. Ibanez did a bit of everything as he threw for 108 yards and a touchdown, while rushing for 175 yards and two touchdowns. He also intercepted a pass on defense.
Koein Maeda, Tulia
Even in a defeat, Maeda made his presence known with three catches for 106 yards and a touchdown, while picking up six tackles and a pass deflection on defense.
Logan Gray and Tyler Brooks, Borger
Even in defeat, these two did their part. Gray compiled 20 tackles on defense while Brooks hauled in seven catches for 151 yards and a score.
Alec Actkinson, Farwell
The quarterback was 3-of-6 passing for 161 yards and three touchdowns, while rushing for 31 yards and two touchdowns on three carries. To say he was efficient would be an understatement.
Davian McMullen, Muleshoe
It was defeat for the Mules this week, but McMullen made his presence felt with 13 tackles.
Drake Rabe, Dareon Mathis and Lamont Nickleberry, Childress
Rabe threw for 200 yards and three touchdowns, Mathis ran for two scores and 157 yards on just eight carries and Nickleberry hauled in four catches for 134 yards and three scores while throwing another.

Kit Macina, Shamrock
Macina nearly delivered the win for Shamrock as he rushed for two scores and 102 yards.
Zevan Gonzales and Kalub Ramirez, Hereford
Not all heroes wear capes, they just play for the Whitefaces. Ramirez was as close to perfect as you can ask for as he went 20-of-29 for 376 yards and five touchdowns. He was aided by Gonzales who hauled in five catches for 193 yards and three touchdowns.
Austin Valle, Memphis
Valle rushed for 138 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries in a win over Wheeler.
Treshun Wilson and Hudson Farris, Tascosa
Wilson rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns, while Farris rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Cooper.
Haiden Thompson, Miami
