Deiondre Whiterock Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Tuba City's Deiondre Whiterock, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Whiterock picked up 211 receiving yards and three touchdowns. The effort also marked the most rushing yards (17) he has had since back in August. He really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
The victory was the fifth in a row for Tuba City, bringing their record for this year to 6-2. They and Greyhills Academy are set to duel on Friday.
