6A Pacific 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!
Wilson Medina Dazzles in Sherwood Victory
Starting off the list is Sherwood's Wilson Medina, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Medina rushed for 234 yards and four touchdowns on only six carries, and also picked up 39 receiving yards and a touchdown. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 85-yard run.
The victory (which was Sherwood's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Medina and Sherwood will face off against Liberty at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Andrew Waletich Turns in Season-Best Performance
Andrew Waletich produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Sherwood to the win on Friday. Waletich rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 30 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 62 yards.
Waletich might have his next game, a road matchup with Liberty, circled on his calendar. When Waletich last faced the Falcons back in October of 2023, he rushed for 74 yards and a touchdown.

Hussein Kamel Puts an End to Century's Losing Streak on Friday
Thanks in part to Hussein Kamel, Century said goodbye to their three-game losing streak. Nobody could stop Kamel on Friday as he picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made 11 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
On the season, Kamel has averaged 4.2 total tackles per game and for the season has 2 sacks. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.17 defended passes per game. This year he is averaging 0.5 defended passes.
Gamescore: 32.00
A Constellation of Stars for Sherwood
Another Sherwood player making an appearance on this list is Jackson Bell. He threw for 102 yards and two touchdowns on only seven passes.
This year, Bell has thrown 5 touchdowns while averaging 77.4 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 5.66 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 83.69 passer rating.
