Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Sariah Williams Dazzles in Fairfield Win
Sariah Williams's big game helped extend Fairfield's winning streak to six on Thursday. Williams turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 95 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 80 yards and a touchdown. She was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 60 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Williams might just drop another big game when she faces off against West Campus on Thursday. Williams rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time she and the Warriors duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 48.23
Valley was sadly handed a defeat on Thursday, but Deyonce Espinal did her best to prevent it. Despite the loss, Espinal was still balling out as she picked up three sacks and made three total tackles. She showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 55 yards.
Valley now has a losing record at 6-7. Espinal and Valley will take on Armijo at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Philliyah Brown's big game helped extend Johnson's winning streak to three on Thursday. Brown did her part (and then some), picking up 32 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. She didn't just play on offense: he also made six total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended a pass.
Johnson's victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 8-2. Brown and Johnson will square off against Florin at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Iris Vang Makes It Two for Johnson
Keeping Brown company is Iris Vang, a fellow Johnson player. She threw for 174 yards and two touchdowns while completing 72.7% of her passes, and also rushed for 41 yards and a touchdown. She also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making two total tackles and defending two passes.
Vang is probably looking forward to her next game, a road matchup against Florin on Thursday. Back in September (the last time Vang saw the Panthers), she threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.8% of her passes, and also rushed for 52 yards.

Jayda Lewis Rounds Out Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Jayda Lewis of Florin. Lewis threw for 229 yards and two touchdowns.
Lewis and Florin are taking a road trip to challenge Johnson at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The matchup will pit Lewis up against the Warriors' star quarterback Iris Vang. 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.
