West Sierra Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
Hawk Garcia Delivers Best Effort of Season
Hawk Garcia produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Mendota to the win on Friday. Garcia rushed for 137 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win was the third in a row for Mendota, bringing their record for this year to 5-1. Garcia will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Dos Palos on Friday.

Julius Borjas Dazzles in Coalinga Win
Coalinga picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Julius Borjas. Borjas was unstoppable, rushing for 125 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the season, Borjas has run in 11 touchdowns while averaging 83.8 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns.
Gamescore: 31.40
Dylan Teixeira and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Dylan Teixeira was instrumental in extending Coalinga's winning streak to six on Friday. Firebaugh had no answer to Teixeira as he picked up 78 receiving yards and a touchdown. Teixeira also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making three total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown.
Teixeira will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Avenal on Friday. The last time Teixeira took on the Buccaneers, he picked up 90 receiving yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
