2A San Pedro Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Landon Ward Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is Willcox's Landon Ward, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Ward made three total tackles and defended four passes, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 58 yards.
Willcox has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Ward and Willcox will take on Benson at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Bisbee Gets a Boost from Lopez in 35-21 Win
Sebastian Lopez was instrumental in extending Bisbee's winning streak to five on Friday. Lopez did his part (and then some), throwing for 255 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes, while also rushing for 40 yards for the 'W'. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble, making eight total tackles, and defending three passes in addition to snagging an interception.
Lopez and Bisbee are taking a road trip to square off against Tombstone at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Pumas had to take a loss when they last met the Yellow Jackets, but Lopez had little to do with the loss: he threw for 184 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 50 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Flint Davis Goes Supernova in Benson Win
Flint Davis was instrumental in extending Benson's winning streak to three on Saturday. Davis did his part (and then some), rushing for 150 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries for the 'W'. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Benson pushed their record up to 5-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home. Davis and Benson will play host again on Friday to welcome Willcox, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.

Tombstone pushed their record up to 5-3 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Wallis and Tombstone will take on Bisbee at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
