Big Game from Perez As Banning Fell 34-33

San Pedro had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Perez it was a similar story. When Perez last faced the Pirates back in October of 2023, he picked up 79 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

A Season-Best Effort from Adrian Guzman Leads Banning over San Pedro
On Friday, Banning had to settle for second even though Adrian Guzman put up the best numbers he has all season. Guzman picked up 69 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
On the year, Guzman has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 21.2 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 10.13 receiving yards per game.

Troy Taulua Makes It Two for Carson
The second Carson player making an appearance here is Troy Taulua, and for good reason. He wasn't messing around on Friday, making eight total tackles and defending three passes in addition to snagging an interception. The matchup was his seventh straight with five or more total tackles dating back to last season. He is becoming a predictor of Carson's success: when he posts at least one interception the team is undefeated (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
For the season, Taulua has averaged 8 total tackles per game and for the season has 5 interceptions. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he had three interceptions.
