Greater Sacramento League Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Sariah Williams Delivers Electric Effort Vs Valley
Sariah Williams was instrumental in extending Fairfield's winning streak to six on Thursday. Williams was dynamite, picking up 95 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 80 yards and a touchdown. She showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 60 yards.
Williams is probably looking forward to her next game, a home matchup against West Campus on Thursday. When Williams last faced the Warriors back in September, she rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Valley had to settle for second on Thursday, but Deyonce Espinal sure wasn't going down easily. Espinal was unstoppable, picking up three sacks and making three total tackles. She was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 55 yards.
Valley now has a losing record at 6-7. Espinal will have a chance to log another big game when she takes on Armijo on Tuesday.

Brown Came Up Big in Johnson's 21-12 Victory
Philliyah Brown's big game helped extend Johnson's winning streak to three on Thursday. Nobody could stop Brown as he picked up 32 receiving yards and two touchdowns. She also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making six total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass.
Johnson's victory was their fifth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 8-2. Brown and Johnson will square off against Florin at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Iris Vang Makes It Two for Johnson
Keeping Brown company is Iris Vang, a fellow Johnson player. She threw for 174 yards and two touchdowns while completing 72.7% of her passes, and also rushed for 41 yards and a touchdown. She also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making two total tackles and defending two passes.
If history really does repeat itself, Vang might just drop another big game when she faces off against Florin on Thursday. Back in September (the last time Vang saw the Panthers), she threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.8% of her passes, and also rushed for 52 yards.

Florin is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 10-7 record this season. Lewis and Florin will challenge Johnson at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
