Gus Petterson Delivers Electric Performance Vs Burney
Starting off the list is Loyalton's Gus Petterson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Petterson rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 199 yards and two touchdowns. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in August of 2023.
If the past is any indication, Petterson could be in store for another big game when he takes on Plumas Charter on Friday. Petterson rushed for 99 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 99 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in August.
