Iota 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!
Ethan Mundt Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Troy got the W thanks in part to Ethan Mundt playing the best football he has all season. Mundt rushed for 176 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.0 yards per carry. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in November of 2023.
Sonora had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Mundt it was a similar story. Mundt rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Raiders duked it out back in October of 2023.

Lundsberg Came Up Big in Canyon's 63-35 Defeat
Alexander Lundsberg's tear continued on Friday as he dropped his sixth-straight game with 324+ passing yards. He threw for 491 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 51 yards and a touchdown.
Canyon has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-4 record this season. Lundsberg's next game is against Irvine on Thursday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance.
