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!
Hayfork Wins 19th-Straight Thanks to Levi Cavalli
Levi Cavalli's big game helped extend Hayfork's winning streak to 19 on Friday. Cavalli did his part (and then some), rushing for 141 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, while also throwing for 63 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 116 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Cavalli might have his next game, a home matchup with Loyalton, circled on his calendar. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Cavalli saw the Grizzlies), he rushed for 253 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 13.3 yards per carry.

A Season-Best Performance from Gus Petterson Leads Loyalton over Chester
Loyalton was led to victory by Gus Petterson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Petterson threw for 291 yards and six touchdowns on only 18 passes, and also rushed for 46 yards and a touchdown.
Petterson and Loyalton will welcome Hayfork at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Petterson will face off against Levi Cavalli, the Timberjacks' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Xavier Silva's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Xavier Silva produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Tulelake to the win on Friday. Silva rushed for 148 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 72 yards and two touchdowns on only five passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 85-yard run.
If the past is any indication, Silva could be in store for another big game when he takes on Burney on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Silva saw the Raiders), he rushed for 43 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 138 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes.
