Siena Freitas' Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Starting off the list is Los Banos's Siena Freitas, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Thursday Freitas picked up 63 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 33 yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the year, Freitas has caught 20 touchdowns while averaging 125.5 receiving yards per game.

Antonia Lejarde Dazzles in Merced Victory
Antonia Lejarde posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Thursday. She threw for 253 yards and three touchdowns while completing 71.8% of her passes, and also rushed for 53 yards and a touchdown. She is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as she's now passed for three or more in the last six games she's played.
Buhach Colony had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Lejarde it was a similar story. On October 1st (the last time Lejarde saw the Thunder), she threw for 342 yards and six touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.

Ariel Ochoa Goes Supernova in El Capitan Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Ariel Ochoa stepped things up a notch to give El Capitan the 'W'. Nobody could stop Ochoa as he threw for 352 yards and four touchdowns while completing 80.4% of her passes.
If the past is any indication, Ochoa could be in store for another big game when she takes on Merced on Thursday. Two weeks ago (the last time Ochoa saw the Bears), she threw for 280 yards and five touchdowns while completing 81% of her passes.
Gamescore: 33.87
Shantelle Magana Makes It Two for El Capitan
Keeping Ochoa company is Shantelle Magana, a fellow El Capitan player. She picked up 79 receiving yards and a touchdown.
If the past is any indication, Magana could be in store for another big game when she takes on Merced on Thursday. Magana picked up 91 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time she and the Bears duked it out two weeks ago.

Perez Posts Huge Game in 42-12 Win
Ryann Perez put up the most rushing yards she's had since back in September on Thursday. She picked up 38 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 52 yards on only six carries.
On the year, Perez has caught 16 touchdowns while averaging 46.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, she was only averaging 11.92 rushing yards per game. This year she is averaging 25.46 rushing yards.
