Sunset 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!
Colbin Garrison Turns in Season-Best Performance
San Luis Obispo was led to victory by Colbin Garrison, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Garrison rushed for 203 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win was the sixth in a row for San Luis Obispo, bringing their record for this year to 8-1. Garrison and San Luis Obispo will be playing at home against Atascadero at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Abel Ritter Leads San Luis Obispo over Santa Ynez
On Friday, San Luis Obispo got the W thanks in part to Abel Ritter playing the best football he has all season. Ritter picked up 73 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making seven total tackles (2.0 for loss).
This season, Ritter has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 18.4 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after nine games last season, he was only averaging one receiving yard per game.

Righetti Gets a Boost from Muriguia in 55-7 Victory
Keeping Magana company is Gilbert Muriguia, a fellow Righetti player. He threw for 187 yards and a touchdown while completing 80% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.
Righetti and Santa Ynez are set to duel on Friday. The match will pit Muriguia up against the Pirates' star quarterback Jude Pritchard. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

San Luis Obispo Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Jace Gomes

Gomes might have his next game, a home matchup with Atascadero, circled on his calendar. Gomes rushed for 106 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 73 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Greyhounds duked it out back in September of 2023.
