Rounding off our Top Five is Emmett Medders of Rio Vista. Medders rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 108 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Medders and Rio Vista will be playing at home against Woodland Christian at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Medders will face off against Isaiah Hunt, the Cardinals' star QB. 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.
