Tri-City 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!
Jermaine Nance Delivers Electric Effort Vs Lincoln
Starting off the list is Kimball's Jermaine Nance, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Nance rushed for 194 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 10.8 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 93-yard run.
The win was the fifth in a row for Kimball, bringing their record for this year to 5-1. Nance and Kimball will square off against St. Mary's at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Devin Rasmussen Leads Edison over Tracy
Edison was led to victory by Devin Rasmussen, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Rasmussen threw for 235 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 33 yards.
The win snapped Edison's winning streak at six games dating back to last season and leaves them with a 1-5 record. They and Lincoln are set to duel on Friday.

Jordin Thomas Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Sadly, Jordin Thomas posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Lincoln over Kimball on Friday. Thomas rushed for 191 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (104.8). Lincoln is 2-1 when Thomas posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Kimball's probably not too fond of Thomas given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in August of 2023 (the last time Thomas saw the Jaguars), he rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns.
Gamescore: 37.80
Big Game from Perez As Lincoln Fell 48-45
Another Lincoln player making an appearance on this list is Julian Perez. He threw for 216 yards and three touchdowns.
On the season, Perez has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 231.8 passing yards per game.

Richard Zuniga Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Kimball got the W thanks in part to Richard Zuniga playing the best football he has all season. Zuniga wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks and making 15 total tackles. The matchup was his sixth straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
This season, Zuniga has averaged 9 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 0.83 total tackles per game.
