Kaleb (Bubba) Burras Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Heritage Academy's Kaleb (Bubba) Burras, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. (Bubba) Burras rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 184 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (100.3). He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 79-yard run.
(Bubba) Burras is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Arete Prep on Friday. When (Bubba) Burras last faced the CHARGERS back in October of 2023, he rushed for 71 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 101 yards and two touchdowns.

Ysaguirre might have his next game, a home matchup with San Tan Charter, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Ysaguirre saw the Roadrunners), he rushed for 184 yards.
