605 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!
Charlie Lopez Delivers Electric Effort Vs Pioneer
Starting off the list is Artesia's Charlie Lopez, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Lopez rushed for 128 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 66 yards.
Lopez's next match is against Cerritos on Thursday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance. The matchup will pit Lopez up against the Dons' star QB Justin Sagun. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Padilla Posts Huge Game in 35-27 Win
Julius Padilla put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in November of 2023 on Thursday. He rushed for 132 yards on only 15 carries.
Padilla must have Pioneer's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Padilla rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only six carries the last time he and the Titans duked it out back in October of 2023.

Josue Flores Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Thursday, Artesia got the W thanks in part to Josue Flores playing the best football he has all season. Flores rushed for 84 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 57 yards.
Flores and Artesia will challenge Cerritos at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Flores will face off against Josiah Ungos, the Dons' star rusher. Will the match be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.
