Northern 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!
Raby Came Up Big in Anderson's 17-6 Defeat
Starting off the list is Anderson's Alias Raby, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Raby made 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss). The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 77 yards.
Anderson now has a losing record at 3-4. Raby and Anderson will be playing in front of their home fans against University Prep at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 50.00
University Prep had to settle for second on Friday, but Devin Huegel sure wasn't going down easily. Huegel was unstoppable, picking up 155 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
University Prep's defeat ended a five-game streak of away wins dating back to last season and brought them to 5-2. Huegel and University Prep will head out on the road to challenge Anderson at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Effort from Logan Rasmussen Leads West Valley over Central Valley
On Friday, West Valley got the W thanks in part to Logan Rasmussen playing the best football he has all season. Rasmussen picked up 100 receiving yards and two touchdowns. West Valley is 2-1 when Rasmussen posts two or more receiving touchdowns, but 0-4 otherwise.
On the year, Rasmussen has averaged 14.4 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 5.29 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 41.71 receiving yards.

Another Game with at Least 106 Rushing Yards from Dathen Moore
Dathen Moore's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his seventh-straight game with 106+ rushing yards. He rushed for 171 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 50 yards.
University Prep's probably not too fond of Moore given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Moore saw the Panthers), he rushed for 133 yards and two touchdowns.
