Josiah Orosco Delivers Best Performance of Season

Tulare Union's victory was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 8-1. Orosco and Tulare Union will play host again on Friday to welcome Tulare Western, where kickoff is scheduled at 6:30 p.m.

Dominic Wilson Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Thursday, Tulare Union got the W thanks in part to Dominic Wilson playing the best football he has all season. Wilson forced a fumble and made 24 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Dinuba's probably not too fond of Wilson given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Wilson saw the Emperors), he made 22 total tackles.
Gamescore: 40.25
Albert Richardson and Co. Win Ninth in a Row
Hanford picked up their ninth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Albert Richardson. Nobody could stop Richardson as he rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries. He didn't just play on offense: he also made four total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Hanford pushed their record up to 9-0 with the victory, which was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season. Richardson and Hanford will take on Lemoore at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Big Game from Crisp As Tulare Union Won 43-29

Dinuba had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Crisp it was a similar story. When Crisp last faced the Emperors back in October of 2023, he threw for 306 yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
