Skyler Linehan Turns in Season-Best Effort
Rocklin was led to victory by Skyler Linehan, who turned in her biggest game of the season on Friday. Linehan picked up 150 receiving yards and three touchdowns. She was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 60 yards.
Linehan is probably looking forward to her next game, a home matchup against St. Francis on Thursday. When Linehan last faced the Troubadours last Thursday, she picked up 81 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Paeu-Lindgren Made Her Presence Known in St. Francis' 49-6 Win
The second St. Francis player making an appearance here is Tayli Paeu-Lindgren, and for good reason. She picked up 73 receiving yards and two touchdowns. She also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making a tackle and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception which she returned one-yard for a touchdown.
This year, Paeu-Lindgren has caught 11 touchdowns while averaging 53.6 receiving yards per game.

Rocklin Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Robyn Nguyen

Ella Cottrell and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Oak Ridge picked up their fourth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Ella Cottrell. Folsom had no answer to Cottrell as she threw for 221 yards and three touchdowns while completing 81.3% of her passes.
Oak Ridge has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six games, which provided a nice bump to their 9-4 record this season. Cottrell and Oak Ridge will face off against Granite Bay at 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
