Butte View 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!
Gus Stogsdill Dazzles in Gridley Win
Starting off the list is Gridley's Gus Stogsdill, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stogsdill rushed for 223 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry, and also threw for 92 yards and a touchdown while completing 80% of his passes. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
Stogsdill and Gridley will head out on the road to square off against University Prep at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs had to take a loss when they last met the Panthers, but Stogsdill had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 117 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
