Henri Reed Dazzles in Lindhurst Loss
Henri Reed posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 216 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.3 yards per carry. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making five total tackles (1.0 for loss).

Underclassman Cody Mccoard Major Player in Golden Sierra Victory
While it always takes a team to win, one person punching above their weight class on Friday was Cody Mccoard. Foresthill had no answer to Mccoard as he rushed for 175 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries. Mccoard also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making six total tackles.
Mccoard and Golden Sierra will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Lindhurst at 7:00 p.m. on September 20th. The game will pit Mccoard up against the Blazers' star RB Henri Reed. 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.

Preston Radich Has Best Rushing Day of Career

Fred Robinson Continues His Big Scoring Run Against El Camino
Rounding off our Top Five is Fred Robinson of Mesa Verde. Robinson rushed for 101 yards and three touchdowns. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Mesa Verde's victory ended a six-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-1. Robinson and Mesa Verde will have plenty of time to enjoy the win as they don't play again for a while. They'll take on Highlands at 7:20 p.m. on September 20th.
