Zach Rogozik Crosses Big Stat Threshold

Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 2.1 rushing touchdowns per game. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 79 yards.

Brian Bonner's Big Game Leads Valencia over Golden Valley
Valencia picked up their third consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Brian Bonner. Bonner was unstoppable, rushing for 83 yards and four touchdowns, while also picking up 47 receiving yards and a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
For the year, Bonner has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 48.4 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 17.

Khanai Langford Turns in Season-Best Performance
Castaic was led to victory by Khanai Langford, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Langford threw for 207 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 40 yards and two touchdowns.

Big Game from Deperno As West Ranch Fell 42-28
Luke Deperno's rushing tear continued on Thursday as he dropped his third-straight game with 169+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He rushed for 169 yards and a touchdown, and also caught two touchdowns.
Castaic's probably not too fond of Deperno given he always seems to get the better of them. Deperno rushed for 189 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.5 yards per carry the last time he and the Coyotes duked it out back in October of 2023.
