Delta 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!
Landon Pompey Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Landon Pompey posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Trabuco Hills over Mayfair on Friday. Pompey rushed for 223 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.6 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 55 yards.
This season, Pompey has averaged 32.5 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after 11 games last season, he was only averaging 0.82 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 93.36 rushing yards.

Xzavior Guess Delivers Electric Effort Vs Santa Barbara

Guess is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Thousand Oaks on Friday. Back in August (the last time Guess saw the Lancers), he rushed for 91 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 320 yards and two touchdowns.
