Evan Moreno's Big Game Leads Robinson over Lorena
Starting off the list is Robinson's Evan Moreno, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Moreno rushed for 205 yards and four touchdowns on only 12 carries. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
The victory (which was Robinson's third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Moreno and Robinson will head out to square off against Connally at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
