Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Edcouch-Elsa to victory, but perhaps none more so than Elijah Trevino, who rushed for 88 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries.
Trevino wasn't the only one working in the rushing yards department: Edcouch-Elsa was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 200 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've posted since back in September of 2023.
