West Catholic 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 Kingston Keanaaina Leads Saint Francis over Junipero Serra
On Friday, Saint Francis got the W thanks in part to Kingston Keanaaina playing the best football he has all season. Keanaaina rushed for 323 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.5 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 76-yard run.
The victory (which was Saint Francis' third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Keanaaina and Saint Francis will challenge St. Ignatius College Preparatory at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Legend Williams Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Saturday, Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory got the W thanks in part to Legend Williams playing the best football he has all season. Williams rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He is becoming a predictor of Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
Archbishop Mitty's probably not too fond of Williams given he always seems to get the better of them. Williams rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry the last time he and the Monarchs duked it out back in September of 2023.

Jarious Hogan's Big Game Leads St. Ignatius College Preparatory over Bellarmine College Prep
St. Ignatius College Preparatory picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jarious Hogan. Hogan was unstoppable, rushing for 64 yards and four touchdowns.
For the season, Hogan has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 88.7 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.00
While Archbishop Mitty might've come up empty on Saturday, Kai Sniffen wasn't going down without a fight. Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory had no answer to Sniffen as he picked up 21 receiving yards.
Archbishop Mitty is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-3. Sniffen and Archbishop Mitty will take on Junipero Serra at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Gamescore: 28.27
Sargent Came Up Big in Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory's 35-28 Victory
Michael Sargent posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He threw for 268 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.7 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
On the year, Sargent has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 222.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 13.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 24.67 rushing yards.
