Ivan Vega Zavala Posts the Field's Best Run for Young Gunz

Ivan Vega Zavala earned Player of the Game in all 7 of his games. That alone frames the case for the tournament's top individual run.

Vega Zavala averaged 11.4 points across those 7 games and finished with 80 total points, all of them inside the arc, as his team reached the final. He led his team in scoring and ranked first in the field in scoring.

The signature work came against Liberal Falcons, where he dropped 20 points and took Player of the Game honors. He met the Falcons again and added 14 more points, claiming the recognition once more. A 14-point outing against Rangers brought another Player of the Game nod. Across the rest of the schedule the pattern held, with the coaches handing him the game ball every time out.

The why here is straightforward. Vega Zavala posted the highest scoring average in the field, paced his own team's offense, and collected 7 Player-of-the-Game honors over 7 games. The scoring line was built entirely on twos, with no threes across the run, an MVP case grounded in volume and consistency rather than any single number.

The Young Gunz reached the final and came up short of the title. That does not dim the individual ledger. The best tournament run did not end with a trophy, but it ended with the field's top scoring average, a team-leading offensive load, and a Player of the Game honor in every game played. The MVP nod follows the evidence: 80 points, a 11.4 average, first in the field, and 7 game balls in 7 tries.
