4A Special District 4 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!
Kaleb Fox Delivers Best Effort of Season
Marshfield was led to victory by Kaleb Fox, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Fox rushed for 159 yards and three touchdowns on only 13 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.
Marshfield moved to 1-5 with that win, which also ended their six-game losing streak. Fox and Marshfield will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Henley at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

The win got Mazama back to even at 3-3. Baldwin and Mazama are taking a road trip to face off against North Bend on Friday.

A Season-Best Effort from Hadyn Widdicombe Leads Marshfield over Ashland
On Friday, Marshfield got the W thanks in part to Hadyn Widdicombe playing the best football he has all season. Widdicombe picked up 116 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 72 yards.
For the season, Widdicombe has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 48 receiving yards per game.

Folau Made His Presence Known in Marshfield's 41-33 Win
Marshfield's six-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Lucas Folau. Nobody could stop Folau on Friday as he picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made seven total tackles. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Ashland, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Folau. Folau picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made five total tackles the last time he and the Grizzlies duked it out back in October of 2023.

Brody Van Gastel Makes It Two for Mazama
The second Mazama player making an appearance here is Brody Van Gastel, and for good reason. He rushed for 62 yards, and also threw for 62 yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making four total tackles and defending a pass.
For the year, Van Gastel has thrown 6 touchdowns while averaging 80.5 passing yards per game.
