Golden Empire 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!
Braylen Blevins Delivers Electric Effort Vs Dixon
Starting off the list is Casa Roble's Braylen Blevins, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Blevins rushed for 175 yards while picking up 8.8 yards per carry. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Dixon had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Blevins it was a similar story. When Blevins last faced Dixon back in October of 2023, he rushed for 130 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also caught a touchdown.

A Season-Best Performance from Marcus Meras Leads Sutter over Natomas
On Friday, Sutter got the W thanks in part to Marcus Meras playing the best football he has all season. Meras rushed for 164 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 64 yards.
Meras and Sutter will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Casa Roble at 7:15 p.m. on November 1st. Meras will face off against Braylen Blevins, the Rams' star RB. 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.
