Sacramento Metro Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Emanual Daugherty II Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is Elite's Emanual Daugherty II, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Daugherty II rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 251 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 12.6 yards per attempt, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 105 or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
The win (which was Elite's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Daugherty II and Elite will face off against Valley Christian at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday.
