2A Metro 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!
Angel Arroyo Dazzles in Alameda Win
Starting off the list is Alameda's Angel Arroyo, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Arroyo rushed for 128 yards and three touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Alameda's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 2-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
With the victory, Alameda broke their three-game losing streak and moved their record to 3-3. Arroyo and Alameda will stay at home for another week and welcome The Classical Academy at 4:00 p.m. on Friday.
