Cook Inlet Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Wednesday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Big Game from SIMON As Service Fell 26-6
Starting off the list is Service's NORA SIMON, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. SIMON rushed for 152 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries. Her rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked her fifth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards.
If history really does repeat itself, SIMON might just drop another big game when she faces off against Chugiak on Saturday. When SIMON last faced the Mustangs back in September, she rushed for 145 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also picked up 34 receiving yards.
