Big West - Upper Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Dorian Hoze Delivers Electric Effort Vs Chaparral
Starting off the list is Murrieta Valley's Dorian Hoze, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hoze rushed for 227 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 10.3 yards per carry. Those 227 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Chaparral's probably not too fond of Hoze given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Hoze saw the Pumas), he rushed for 210 yards and three touchdowns.

Longstreet Made His Presence Known in Centennial's 63-0 Victory
Centennial picked up their fifth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Husan Longstreet. Nobody could stop Longstreet as he threw for 216 yards and three touchdowns while completing 76.9% of his passes, and also rushed for 32 yards and a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Vista Murrieta's probably not too fond of Longstreet given he always seems to get the better of them. When Longstreet last faced the Broncos back in October of 2023, he threw for 299 yards and four touchdowns while completing 93.8% of his passes.

Jeremiah Watson Turns in Season-Best Performance
Jeremiah Watson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Murrieta Valley to the win on Friday. Watson rushed for 149 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 61 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the season, Watson has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 60 rushing yards per game.

Joseph Stoffel Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Joseph Stoffel produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Norco to the win on Friday. Stoffel rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, and also threw for 96 yards and a touchdown while completing 71.4% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the year, Stoffel has thrown 5 touchdowns while averaging 131.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to two.

Schneider Came Up Big in Norco's 49-7 Win
Keeping Stoffel company is Trevor Schneider, a fellow Norco player. He rushed for 129 yards and two touchdowns. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 111 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Roosevelt, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Schneider. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Schneider saw the Mustangs), he rushed for 140 yards and a touchdown.
