Railbelt 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 Oschaun Easaw Leads Lathrop over West Valley
Lathrop was led to victory by Oschaun Easaw, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Saturday. Easaw rushed for 205 yards and four touchdowns on only 12 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 115 or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.
Easaw might have his next game, a home matchup with North Pole, circled on his calendar. Easaw rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Patriots duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 60.20
Deshon Hall Makes It Two for Lathrop
Keeping Easaw company is Deshon Hall, a fellow Lathrop player. He picked up 30 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Hall and Lathrop are on the road again on Friday to play North Pole at 6:00 p.m. Hall will face off against Devin Cooper-Jackson, the Patriots' star receiver. The only thing left to do is find out who's the greater deep ball threat. You'll have to watch the game to know for sure.
