East Yosemite 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!
Burk Made His Presence Known in Redwood's 28-6 Win
Starting off the list is Redwood's Jimmie Burk, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Burk rushed for 132 yards and four touchdowns.
Unfortunately for Monache, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Burk. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Burk saw the Marauders), he rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries.

Case Anders and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Golden West picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Case Anders. Anders turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 84 yards and three touchdowns, while also picking up 78 receiving yards.
Anders and Golden West will head out on the road to challenge Redwood at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Anders will face off against Jimmie Burk, the Rangers' star running back. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Porterville was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Izaya Welsh did his best to prevent it. Welsh was dynamite, picking up 90 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 64 yards.
For the season, Welsh has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 89 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 29.43 receiving yards per game.
