West 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!
A Season-Best Effort from Jordan Crisp Leads Tulare Union over Lemoore
On Friday, Tulare Union got the W thanks in part to Jordan Crisp playing the best football he has all season. Crisp wasn't messing around, throwing for 396 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 12.8 yards per attempt. The contest was his 13th straight with three or more passing touchdowns dating back to last season.
If history really does repeat itself, Crisp might just drop another big game when he faces off against Hanford on Friday. When Crisp last faced the Bullpups back in October of 2023, he threw for 406 yards and four touchdowns.

Tulare Union Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Brayden Stevenson
Brayden Stevenson was instrumental in extending Tulare Union's winning streak to six on Friday. Stevenson was dynamite, picking up 110 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 55 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Stevenson has caught 8 touchdowns while averaging 89.5 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to two.

Albert Richardson Delivers Best Performance of Season
Hanford was led to victory by Albert Richardson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Richardson rushed for 48 yards and two touchdowns. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023.
If the past is any indication, Richardson could be in store for another big game when he takes on Tulare Union on Friday. When Richardson last faced the The Tribe back in October of 2023, he rushed for 74 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries.

Taveon Patterson Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Hanford picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Taveon Patterson. Patterson showed up in a big way, picking up 197 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average receiving yardage north of 100 yards per game (100.3). He showed off some serious burst, cutting upfield on a catch for 65 yards.
This year, Patterson has caught 8 touchdowns while averaging 100.3 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 36.5 receiving yards per game.

Big Game from Gomez As Hanford Won 43-6
Hanford picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Daniel Gomez. Dinuba had no answer to Gomez as he threw for 292 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes.
Dinuba had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Gomez it was a similar story. Gomez threw for 189 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 35 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Emperors duked it out back in September of 2023.
