Ocean 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!
Blake Gregory's Big Game Leads Cabrillo over Morro Bay
Starting off the list is Cabrillo's Blake Gregory, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Gregory rushed for 140 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also threw for 129 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes. Those 140 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
The victory (which was Cabrillo's fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Gregory and Cabrillo will play host again on Thursday to welcome Carpinteria, where kickoff is scheduled at 7:00 p.m.

John Myers Delivers Best Performance of Season
Sadly, John Myers posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Morro Bay over Cabrillo on Friday. Myers picked up 287 receiving yards and a touchdown. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
For the year, Myers has caught 7 touchdowns while averaging 96 receiving yards per game.

Big Game from Dougherty As Morro Bay Fell 41-39
Keeping Myers company is Sands Dougherty, a fellow Morro Bay player. He threw for 401 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown. His passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 336 passing yards dating back to last season.
For the year, Dougherty has thrown 19 touchdowns while averaging 284.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 60.9 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 98.93 passer rating.

This year, Brisco has averaged 22.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to six.
