California - Division I (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Effort from Levi Cavalli Leads Hayfork over Loyalton
Levi Cavalli produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Hayfork to the win on Saturday. Cavalli rushed for 286 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 82-yard run.
Cavalli might have his next game, a road matchup with Chester, circled on his calendar. Cavalli rushed for 232 yards and four touchdowns on only six carries the last time he and the Volcanoes duked it out two weeks ago.

Silva Posts Huge Game in 64-8 Win
Xavier Silva was instrumental in extending Tulelake's winning streak to three on Friday. Burney had no answer to Silva as he rushed for 88 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries, and also threw for 84 yards and a touchdown on only five passes.
Silva must have Burney's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Silva rushed for 43 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 138 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes the last time he and the Raiders duked it out back in October of 2023.

Hayfork Wins 20th-Straight Thanks to Devin Nanez
Devin Nanez was instrumental in extending Hayfork's winning streak to 20 on Saturday. Nanez rushed for 160 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
If the past is any indication, Nanez could be in store for another big game when he takes on Chester on Friday. Two weeks ago (the last time Nanez saw the Volcanoes), he rushed for 141 yards and a touchdown on only five carries.

Danny Garcia Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Tulelake got the W thanks in part to Danny Garcia playing the best football he has all season. Garcia rushed for 168 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He didn't just play on offense: he also made three total tackles and defended a pass.
Unfortunately for Burney, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Garcia. When Garcia last faced the Raiders back in October of 2023, he rushed for 232 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per carry.
