Delta League Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Kate Myers' Big Game Leads Pleasant Grove over Monterey Trail
Kate Myers's big game helped extend Pleasant Grove's winning streak to ten on Thursday. Myers did her part (and then some), rushing for 138 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, while also throwing for 45 yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. Her longest rush was for an impressive 60 yards, which helps to explain her lofty yards per carry total.
If history really does repeat itself, Myers might just drop another big game when she faces off against Sheldon on Thursday. Back in September (the last time Myers saw the Huskies), she threw for 113 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
Gamescore: 44.80

Aletha Singleton was a major factor in Franklin's victory over Laguna Creek on Thursday. Singleton was dynamite, picking up 60 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 55 yards and a touchdown. She really tore up the turf during one magnificent 95-yard run.
Franklin is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matches, which provided a nice bump to their 9-6 record this season. Singleton and Franklin will square off against Wheatland at 6:00 p.m. on Monday.
