East Sequoia 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!
Aldo Rodriguez Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Woodlake got the W thanks in part to Aldo Rodriguez playing the best football he has all season. Rodriguez threw for 331 yards and six touchdowns while completing 73.9% of his passes.
For the season, Rodriguez has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 201.5 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 42.03 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 89.03 passer rating.
Gamescore: 40.57
A Season-Best Effort from David Flores Leads Woodlake over Orange Cove
On Friday, Woodlake got the W thanks in part to David Flores playing the best football he has all season. Flores picked up 146 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
This season, Flores has caught 6 touchdowns while averaging 97.7 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 5.33 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 33.10
Corcoran was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Julian Fernandez did his best to prevent it. Fernandez turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up a sack and making six total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making six total tackles.
This year, Fernandez has averaged 5.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 2 sacks.
Gamescore: 30.12
Big Game from Ruiz As Strathmore Won 28-12
Gerardo Ruiz's big game helped extend Strathmore's winning streak to three on Friday. Orosi had no answer to Ruiz as he rushed for 53 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a touchdown.
Ruiz and Strathmore will be playing at home against Woodlake at 7:15 p.m. on Friday. The Spartans got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Tigers, probably because Ruiz had a solid game then too: he rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 29.85
Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles from Dayr Salazar
Dayr Salazar produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Woodlake to the win on Friday. Salazar wasn't messing around, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles (5.0 for loss). The game was his third straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
This season, Salazar has averaged 6.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 sacks.
