C2 District 2 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!
Gavin Baker Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Archbishop Bergan's Gavin Baker, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Baker picked up 174 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Archbishop Bergan's success: when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
With the win, Archbishop Bergan broke their four-game losing streak and moved their record to 3-4. Baker and Archbishop Bergan will welcome North Bend Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 42.07
While Arlington might've come up empty on Friday, Dallin Franzlubbers wasn't going down without a fight. Yutan had no answer to Franzlubbers as he rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries.
Arlington's loss was their third straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 2-5. Franzlubbers and Arlington will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Archbishop Bergan at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Killian Mcintosh's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Arlington over Yutan
Keeping Franzlubbers company is Killian Mcintosh, a fellow Arlington player. He rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
This season, Mcintosh has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 71.3 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns.

Aj Arensberg and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Aj Arensberg was instrumental in extending Yutan's winning streak to four on Friday. Nobody could stop Arensberg as he made two total tackles (1.0 for loss). He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 53 yards.
Yutan's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-3. Arensberg and Yutan will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against North Bend Central at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Cale Sheets Makes It Two for Archbishop Bergan
The second Archbishop Bergan player making an appearance here is Cale Sheets, and for good reason. He picked up 154 receiving yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, lighting up the secondary with a catch for 63 yards.
This season, Sheets has caught 8 touchdowns while averaging 90.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he had three receiving touchdowns.
