Greater Sacramento League 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!
Aubrey Stewart Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Thursday, Fairfield got the W thanks in part to Aubrey Stewart playing the best football she has all season. Stewart rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75% of her passes. The performance marked the most rushing yards she has had since back in September. She has become a key player for Fairfield: the team is undefeated when she posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 3-4 otherwise.
Burbank had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Stewart it was a similar story. Back in September (the last time Stewart saw the Titans), she rushed for 127 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 183 yards and two touchdowns.

A Season-Best Performance from Sariah Williams Leads Fairfield over Burbank
Sariah Williams produced her most outstanding game to date while leading Fairfield to the win on Thursday. Williams rushed for 140 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also picked up 76 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The performance marked the most rushing yards she has had since back in August. She was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 65 yards.
Williams might have her next game, a road matchup with Johnson, circled on her calendar. Back in September (the last time Williams saw the Warriors), she rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.

Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Deyonce Espinal stepped things up a notch to give Valley the 'W'. Nobody could stop Espinal as he made two total tackles and defended two passes. She also punched in two rushing touchdowns, which is notable because Valley is 3-1 when she posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 5-6 otherwise.
West Campus had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Espinal it was a similar story. Espinal made a tackle and snagged four interceptions the last time she and the Warriors duked it out back in September.
