Ocean 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!
Blake Gregory Delivers Electric Effort Vs Morro Bay
Starting off the list is Cabrillo's Blake Gregory, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Gregory rushed for 140 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also threw for 129 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes. Those 140 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Gregory and Cabrillo will stay at home for another week and welcome Carpinteria at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Conquistadores got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Warriors, probably because Gregory had a solid game then too: he picked up 87 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 42 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

A Season-Best Effort from John Myers Leads Morro Bay over Cabrillo
On Friday, Morro Bay had to settle for second even though John Myers put up the best numbers he has all season. Myers picked up 287 receiving yards and a touchdown. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
This season, Myers has caught 7 touchdowns while averaging 96 receiving yards per game.

Sands Dougherty Makes It Two for Morro Bay
Keeping Myers company is Sands Dougherty, a fellow Morro Bay player. He threw for 401 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown. His passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 336 passing yards dating back to last season.
For the season, Dougherty has thrown 19 touchdowns while averaging 284.8 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one passing touchdown.

Brisco Made His Presence Known in Cabrillo's 41-39 Win
Andre Brisco posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 208 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.7 yards per carry. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 64 yards.
This season, Brisco has averaged 22.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 24.33 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 132.5 rushing yards.
