San Joaquin AA 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!
Joel Donnell Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, McNair got the W thanks in part to Joel Donnell playing the best football he has all season. Donnell rushed for 260 yards and three touchdowns on only 13 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win was the fourth in a row for McNair, bringing their record for this year to 5-2. Donnell and McNair will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Stagg at 7:15 p.m. on October 18th.

The win (which was Chavez's fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Easter and Chavez will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Weston Ranch at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.

Jamani Hampton Makes Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Jamani Hampton of West. Hampton rushed for 138 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.6 yards per carry. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (101.1) per game. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making three total tackles and defending a pass in addition to snagging two interceptions.
West is on a 12-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-7. Hampton and West will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Tokay at 7:15 p.m. on October 18th.
