TOP TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYS OF WEEK 2

KATY DOUBLE-REVERSE PASS: Katy's Gunner Nelson hits senior wideout Israel Olotu-Judah deep downfield on a double-reverse throw to net the Tigers a 27-yard gain deep into Atascocita territory, setting up a go-ahead field goal. Atascocita pulled away late.

LAKE TRAVIS GAME-WINNING TD: Chaston Ditta hits Patrick Colby in the back of the endzone for a go-ahead 14-yard touchdown in the final minute of a thrilling shootout win over Lancaster.

DAKORIEN MOORE MAKES TWO MISS: Duncanville's star wideout and the top-rated receiver in the country caught a short pass, juked two defenders in the open field and jetted in for a 19-yard TD catch in the Panthers' win over South Oak Cliff.

BYRON NELSON TRICK PLAY TO WIN: The Bobcats pulled off a little trickery to score a go-ahead touchdown against Lewisville in the final minute of a comback win. Grant Bizjack faked two hand-offs and hit Baylor commit Leo Almanza behind the defense for a 54-yard touchdown.

ATASCOCITA GOES DEEP: Cardae Mack, 3-star running back-turned quarterback, flashed his arm with an 80-yard deep ball TD pass to Brodrick Malone for a go-ahead score in the third quarter of a win over Katy in a ranked showdown.

DESOTO QB FLASHES WHEELS: New Eagles QB Kelden Ryan, a Virginia Tech commit, made an impressive play on his feet to keep a QB run alive for a 30-yard go-ahead touchdown early in a narrow upset loss to North Crowley.

JIMERSON, GIBSON LINK FOR LONG TD HAUL: North Crowley opened its high-scoring shootout upset of nationally ranked DeSoto with a 35-yard touchdown pass in the endzone in one-on-one coverage. Chris Jimerson Jr. hit Quinten Gibson for an impressive six and the duo's one of three TD connections on the day.

RAYCINE GUILLORY LONG TD RUN: Aledo 4-star junior Raycine Guillory broke ankles and tackles en route to a 59-yard TD in a bounce-back win over Lancaster. He flashed shades of LaMichael James' 72-yard TD in Oregon's win at Tennessee in 2010 where he seemingly sought out each of the opponent's 11 defenders to make them miss before scoring.

NORTH SHORE GOES DEEP: Speedy two-way star Quanell X Farrakhan Jr., a four-star Colorado commit, snuck behind the Crowley secondary and caught a Kaleb Bailey deep ball to help the nationally ranked Mustangs pull away.
