Noah Guerrero Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Noah Guerrero posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Upland over Rancho Cucamonga on Friday. Guerrero wasn't messing around, picking up a sack and making 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss). The matchup was his sixth straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
For the year, Guerrero has averaged 11.2 total tackles per game and for the season has those 1 sack. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 4.8 total tackles per game.
