Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Mason Caturegli Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Saturday, St. Vincent de Paul got the W thanks in part to Mason Caturegli playing the best football he has all season. Caturegli rushed for 217 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 55 yards.
St. Vincent de Paul's victory was their tenth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Caturegli and St. Vincent de Paul will head out on the road to challenge Ukiah at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Big Game from Phillips As Ukiah Won 42-14
Omaurie Phillips's big game helped extend Ukiah's winning streak to three on Friday. Santa Rosa had no answer to Phillips as he picked up 89 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Phillips is on a roll when it comes to receiving touchdowns, as he's now hauled in two or more in the last three games he's played.
Phillips and Ukiah will challenge St. Vincent de Paul at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The contest will pit Phillips up against the Mustangs' star WR Tye Nickens. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Rashai Thompson continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his fourth-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least 119 rushing yards. He rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 73-yard run.

Jack Ellis and Co. Win Fifth in a Row
St. Vincent de Paul picked up their fifth consecutive win on Saturday thanks in part to Jack Ellis. Ellis turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 52 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Ellis and St. Vincent de Paul will square off against Ukiah at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Mustangs had to take a loss when they last met the Wildcats, but Ellis had little to do with the loss: he picked up 59 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
