3A North 1 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Emmitt Munson Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Thursday, Pomona got the W thanks in part to Emmitt Munson playing the best football he has all season. Munson rushed for 184 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, and also threw for 88 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 60 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Pomona is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four matches, which provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Munson and Pomona will face off against Severance at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday.
