Sacramento Valley 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!
A Season-Best Effort from Gio Jimenez Leads Winters over Hamilton
Gio Jimenez produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Winters to the win on Friday. Jimenez rushed for 111 yards and five touchdowns on only 13 carries, and also picked up 74 receiving yards.
Jimenez might have his next game, a home matchup with East Nicolaus, circled on his calendar. Back in October (the last time Jimenez saw the Spartans), he rushed for 82 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 51 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 64.90
Sebastian Rodriguez and Co. Win 11th in a Row
Winters picked up their 11th consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Sebastian Rodriguez. Nobody could stop Rodriguez as he rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown.
If the past is any indication, Rodriguez could be in store for another big game when he takes on East Nicolaus on Friday. Rodriguez rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown on only five carries, and also picked up 88 receiving yards the last time he and the Spartans duked it out back in October.
Gamescore: 44.53
Mason Taylor's Big Game Leads East Nicolaus over Durham
Mason Taylor put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in September on Friday. He threw for 152 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown on only five carries.
East Nicolaus and Winters are set to duel on Friday. The Spartans had to take a loss when they last met the Warriors, but Taylor had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 37 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 91 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 37.93
Jaydan Marshall Makes It Two for East Nicolaus
Another East Nicolaus player making an appearance on this list is Jaydan Marshall. He rushed for 49 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Durham, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Marshall. Marshall rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries the last time he and the Trojans duked it out back in October.
Gamescore: 33.98
A Constellation of Stars for East Nicolaus
Another East Nicolaus player making an appearance on this list is Davan Earhart. He made two total tackles and defended a pass. He also hauled in two receiving touchdowns, which is notable because East Nicolaus is undefeated when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns, but 2-4 otherwise.
Gamescore: 24.10

- Robert Nesbitt Jr.: 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss) (Gamescore: 21.00)
