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!
Big Game from Tia As Amador Valley Won 42-21
Starting off the list is Amador Valley's Tristan Tia, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Tia threw for 328 yards and four touchdowns while completing 89.5% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. His passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 328 passing yards.
Amador Valley now has a winning record of 6-5. Tia and Amador Valley will play host again on Friday to welcome Windsor, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.

Anthony Harrington Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Amador Valley got the W thanks in part to Anthony Harrington playing the best football he has all season. Harrington picked up 192 receiving yards and four touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 60 yards.
This season, Harrington has caught 11 touchdowns while averaging 124.6 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 25.3 receiving yards per game.

San Ramon Valley Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Owen Scott
Owen Scott was instrumental in extending San Ramon Valley's winning streak to three on Friday. Nobody could stop Scott as he picked up 164 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
San Ramon Valley's victory was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 10-1. Scott and San Ramon Valley will welcome Cardinal Newman at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Luckey Posts Huge Game in 35-7 Loss
California had to settle for second on Friday, but Jhadis Luckey sure wasn't going down easily. San Ramon Valley had no answer to Luckey as he rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 38 receiving yards.
Luckey must have San Ramon Valley's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Luckey last faced the Wolves back in October, he rushed for 165 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry.

A Season-Best Performance from Sammy Avalos Leads San Ramon Valley over California
San Ramon Valley was led to victory by Sammy Avalos, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Avalos picked up 48 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. The performance also marked the most rushing yards (29) he has had since back in September.
On the year, Avalos has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 13.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.64 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 21.18 rushing yards.
