California - Division I (8 Man) 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!
Hayfork Wins 19th-Straight Thanks to Levi Cavalli
Levi Cavalli's big game helped extend Hayfork's winning streak to 19 on Friday. Cavalli turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 141 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, while also throwing for 63 yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 116 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Cavalli is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Loyalton on Friday. Cavalli rushed for 253 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 13.3 yards per carry the last time he and the Grizzlies duked it out back in November of 2023.

A Season-Best Effort from Gus Petterson Leads Loyalton over Chester
Gus Petterson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Loyalton to the win on Friday. Petterson threw for 291 yards and six touchdowns on only 18 passes, and also rushed for 46 yards and a touchdown.
Petterson and Loyalton will welcome Hayfork at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Petterson will face off against Levi Cavalli, the Timberjacks' star quarterback. 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.

Xavier Silva Has Career-Day on Friday
On Friday, Tulelake got the W thanks in part to Xavier Silva playing the best football he has all season. Silva rushed for 148 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 72 yards and two touchdowns on only five passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 85-yard run.
Silva might have his next game, a home matchup with Burney, circled on his calendar. Silva rushed for 43 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 138 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes the last time he and the Raiders duked it out back in October of 2023.

Devin Nanez and Co. Win 19th in a Row
Devin Nanez was instrumental in extending Hayfork's winning streak to 19 on Friday. Nanez was unstoppable, picking up 63 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 50 yards and a touchdown.incredibly, Nanez got all that yardage with just one huge grab
Nanez must have Burney's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September (the last time Nanez saw the Raiders), he rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.

Anthony Bonelli Goes Supernova in Hayfork Victory
Anthony Bonelli's big game helped extend Hayfork's winning streak to 19 on Friday. Burney had no answer to Bonelli as he rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only six carries. Bonelli's longest rush was for an impressive 57 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
This year, Bonelli has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 68.8 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he had three rushing touchdowns.
