East Yosemite 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!
Case Anders Delivers Electric Effort Vs Redwood
Case Anders's big game helped extend Golden West's winning streak to seven on Friday. Nobody could stop Anders as he rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 55 receiving yards. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
If history really does repeat itself, Anders might just drop another big game when he faces off against Monache on Friday. Anders rushed for 223 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.0 yards per carry the last time he and the Marauders duked it out back in September of 2023.

Baxter Came Up Big in Monache's 24-7 Victory
Ty Baxter was a major factor in Monache's win over Mt. Whitney on Friday. Mt. Whitney had no answer to Baxter as he rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries.
Baxter is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Golden West on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Baxter saw the Trailblazers), he rushed for 78 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards and a touchdown.
