Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Wednesday and Thursday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Lillian Mcdaniel's Big Game Leads Granite Bay over Rocklin
Starting off the list is Granite Bay's Lillian McDaniel, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. McDaniel threw for 203 yards and four touchdowns while completing 74.2% of her passes, and also rushed for 88 yards on only nine carries.
The win (which was Granite Bay's third in a row) raised their record to 9-6. McDaniel and Granite Bay will head out to challenge Folsom at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

Im Posts Huge Game in 31-0 Victory
Lulu Im put up the most rushing yards she's had since back in September on Thursday. She threw for 105 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 58 yards on only six carries.
Folsom had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Im it was a similar story. Back in September (the last time Im saw the Bulldogs), she threw for 126 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 49 yards.
Gamescore: 28.50
Things weren't looking good for Oak Ridge heading into Wednesday's tilt with Del Oro(they were ranked 54 places lower in California), but Ava Edwards wasn't phased. Edwards did her part (and then some), picking up 20 receiving yards for the 'W'.
The win was the seventh in a row for Oak Ridge, bringing their record for this year to 12-4. Edwards will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when she faces off against Davis Sr. on Thursday.
Gamescore: 21.50
Alexa Randall Turns in Season-Best Effort
St. Francis came up short on Thursday despite Alexa Randall delivering her best game to date. Randall made five total tackles and defended two passes in addition to snagging an interception which she returned one-yard for a touchdown.
St. Francis is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-14. Randall and St. Francis will challenge Whitney at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
Gamescore: 19.50
Leilani Teaupa Makes It Two for Granite Bay
The second Granite Bay player making an appearance here is Leilani Teaupa, and for good reason. She picked up 37 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 55 yards on only six carries.
If history really does repeat itself, Teaupa might just drop another big game when she faces off against Folsom on Thursday. Teaupa rushed for 92 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries the last time she and the Bulldogs duked it out back in September.
