Diablo - Foothill Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Drew Mckenzie Turns in Season-Best Performance
Drew Mckenzie produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Acalanes to the win on Friday. Mckenzie picked up three sacks, forced two fumbles, and made four total tackles.
Mckenzie and Acalanes will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Campolindo at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st. Mckenzie better keep an eye on Roman Mercado as he's been one of the Knights' best RB. Will Mercado have another big offensive game, or will Mckenzie keep him contained? We'll have our answer soon enough.
