Derek Keeley's Big Game Leads Rocklin over Whitney
Another Rocklin player making an appearance on this list is Derek Keeley. He rushed for 105 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 105 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Keeley must have Whitney's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Keeley saw the Wildcats), he rushed for 99 yards and five touchdowns.
