California - Division I (8 Man) 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!
Hayfork Wins 21st-Straight Thanks to Levi Cavalli
Levi Cavalli was instrumental in extending Hayfork's winning streak to 21 on Friday. Cavalli did his part (and then some), rushing for 175 yards and five touchdowns on only six carries for the 'W'. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his seventh straight game with at least 116 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Chester's probably not too fond of Cavalli given he always seems to get the better of them. When Cavalli last faced the Volcanoes back in September, he rushed for 232 yards and four touchdowns on only six carries.

Burney Gets a Boost from Noah in 34-16 Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Kyle Noah stepped things up a notch to give Burney the 'W'. Noah turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 107 yards and three touchdowns, while also throwing for 84 yards and a touchdown on only eight passes. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made seven total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Noah must have Plumas Charter's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September (the last time Noah saw the Warriors), he rushed for 150 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.9 yards per carry, and also threw for 196 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 passes.
Gamescore: 57.75
Anthony Loza Turns in Season-Best Effort
Anthony Loza produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Tulelake to the win on Friday. Loza rushed for 85 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 55 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making five total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging an interception.
If the past is any indication, Loza could be in store for another big game when he takes on Chester on Friday. Loza picked up 144 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Volcanoes duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 46.80
Xavier Silva Makes It Two for Tulelake
Keeping Loza company is Xavier Silva, a fellow Tulelake player. He rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown on only 13 carries, and also threw for 55 yards and a touchdown.
Silva and Tulelake will square off against Chester at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. The Honkers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Volcanoes, probably because Silva had a solid game then too: he threw for 150 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 38 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Garcia Posts Huge Game in 52-0 Victory
Another Tulelake player making an appearance on this list is Danny Garcia. He rushed for 156 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries.
Garcia and Tulelake will head out to face off against Chester at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. The Honkers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Volcanoes, probably because Garcia had a solid game then too: he rushed for 60 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
