Northern Lakes 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!
Jaron Thomas Goes Supernova in Concord Win
Jaron Thomas's big game helped extend Concord's winning streak to eight on Friday. Thomas did his part (and then some), rushing for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries for the 'W'. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up 0.5 sacks and made eight total tackles.
Thomas is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Plymouth on Friday. When Thomas last faced the Pilgrims/Rockies back in October of 2023, he rushed for 186 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries.
Gamescore: 47.45
While NorthWood might've come up empty on Friday, Austin King wasn't going down without a fight. King was dynamite, forcing a fumble and making seven total tackles. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made seven total tackles.
NorthWood is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. King and NorthWood will face off against Goshen at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 38.78
Breveard Made His Presence Known in Concord's 44-7 Win
Char'Rese Breveard's big game helped extend Concord's winning streak to eight on Friday. Breveard turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 143 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also punching in a touchdown on the ground. He showed off some serious burst, lighting up the secondary with a catch for 69 yards.
For the year, Breveard has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 76.2 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 29.5 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.53
Derek Sherwood Delivers Best Effort of Season
Derek Sherwood produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Northridge to the win on Friday. Sherwood rushed for 113 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries.
Goshen's probably not too fond of Sherwood given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Sherwood saw the RedHawks), he rushed for 63 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries.
Gamescore: 30.48
Karsyn Rumfelt Makes It Two for Northridge
Another Northridge player making an appearance on this list is Karsyn Rumfelt. He rushed for six yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 135 yards and a touchdown. He is becoming a predictor of Northridge's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 0-5 when he doesn't).
This season, Rumfelt has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 148.1 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 1.63 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 13 rushing yards.
