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
David Flores Delivers Best Effort of Season
David Flores produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Woodlake to the win on Friday. Flores picked up 146 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
On the year, 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 had to settle for second on Friday, but Julian Fernandez sure wasn't going down easily. 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 season, Fernandez has averaged 5.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 2 sacks.
Gamescore: 30.12
Ruiz Posts Huge Game in 28-12 Win
Gerardo Ruiz was instrumental in extending Strathmore's winning streak to three on Friday. Ruiz was dynamite, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown, while also catching 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
On Friday, Woodlake got the W thanks in part to Dayr Salazar playing the best football he has all season. Salazar wasn't messing around, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles (5.0 for loss). The contest was his third straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
This year, Salazar has averaged 6.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 sacks.
