4A North Puget Sound Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Performance from Andrew Wold Leads Auburn Riverside over Kentridge
Andrew Wold produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Auburn Riverside to the win on Friday. Wold rushed for 135 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 208 yards and three touchdowns on only ten passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 75 yards.
For the year, Wold has thrown 8 touchdowns while averaging 143.6 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to five.

Indiana Jones Dazzles in Kennedy Catholic Win
Kennedy Catholic picked up their seventh consecutive win on Saturday thanks in part to Indiana Jones. Jones was unstoppable, rushing for 168 yards and four touchdowns. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
If history really does repeat itself, Jones might just drop another big game when he faces off against Kentridge on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Jones saw the Chargers), he rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also picked up 52 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Jonathan Epperson Jr Makes It Two for Auburn Riverside
The second Auburn Riverside player making an appearance here is Jonathan Epperson Jr, and for good reason. He made three total tackles. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 60 yards.

Kennedy Catholic Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Nikko Lecksiwilai
Nikko Lecksiwilai's big game helped extend Kennedy Catholic's winning streak to seven on Saturday. Lecksiwilai turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 56 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
Lecksiwilai's next game is against Kentridge on Saturday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance. The last time Lecksiwilai took on the Chargers, he rushed for 61 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
