Bravo Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Nate Lewis Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is Villa Park's Nate Lewis, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Lewis picked up a sack and made seven total tackles (2.0 for loss), good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played.
For the season, Lewis has averaged 7.8 total tackles per game and for the season has those 1 sack. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 16.63 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 40.75 rushing yards.

Adam Achour Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Tesoro came up short on Friday despite Adam Achour delivering his best game to date. Achour made 16 total tackles (3.0 for loss). Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 6.2 total tackles per game.
Tesoro is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. Achour and Tesoro will head out to square off against Corona del Mar at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Herr Posts Huge Game in 30-7 Victory
Timmy Herr's big game helped extend San Juan Hills's winning streak to five on Friday. Herr was dynamite, throwing for 215 yards and three touchdowns while completing 87% of his passes.
Herr must have Newport Harbor's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Herr rushed for 73 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 76 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Sailors duked it out back in September of 2023.
