Anissa Zavala Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Thursday, Johnson got the W thanks in part to Anissa Zavala playing the best football she has all season. Zavala picked up 87 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Zavala and Johnson will be playing at home against Burbank at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The Warriors got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Titans, probably because Zavala had a solid game then too: she rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a touchdown. Can she match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 32.77
Florin found a leader in Erin Foster as the squad took down Valley on Thursday. Foster was unstoppable, rushing for 31 yards.
Foster is probably looking forward to her next game, a road matchup against West Campus on Thursday. When Foster last faced the Warriors back in September, she rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown.

While Valley might've come up empty on Thursday, Deyonce Espinal wasn't going down without a fight. Espinal was unstoppable, making three total tackles.
The loss snapped Valley's winning streak at three games and leaves them with a 5-6 record. Espinal and Valley will welcome Foothill at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
