Alijah Royster Dazzles in Pacifica Victory
Alijah Royster was instrumental in extending Pacifica's winning streak to seven on Saturday. Royster turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 152 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown. His longest reception was for an incredible 75 yards.
For the season, Royster has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 53.9 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after 11 games last season, he was only averaging 0.91 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 50.5 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 37.62
Hawkins Made His Presence Known in Simi Valley's 35-21 Loss
Brice Hawkins continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his fifth-straight game with at least two rushing touchdowns. He picked up 88 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also punched in two touchdowns on the ground.
On the year, Hawkins has caught 6 touchdowns while averaging 37.8 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after 14 games last season, he had 21 rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 32.
Gamescore: 28.93
Glover Came Up Big in St. Bonaventure's 27-20 Defeat
St. Bonaventure was sadly handed a defeat on Saturday, but Koen Glover did his best to prevent it. Glover was unstoppable, rushing for 176 yards while picking up 8.0 yards per carry.
Unfortunately for Pacifica, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Glover. When Glover last faced the Tritons back in October, he rushed for 213 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 27.27
Matthew Perez Has Career-Day on Saturday
Matthew Perez posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He picked up a sack and made eight total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Perez must have Pacifica's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Perez made 11 total tackles (5.5 for loss) and defended a pass the last time he and the Tritons duked it out back in October.
Gamescore: 27.10
Dominic Duran and Co. Win Seventh in a Row
Dominic Duran's big game helped extend Pacifica's winning streak to seven on Saturday. St. Bonaventure had no answer to Duran as he threw for 226 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.3 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 39 yards.
For the year, Duran has thrown 28 touchdowns while averaging 212 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 16.73 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 28.75 rushing yards.
