Greater Sacramento League Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Aubrey Stewart Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Thursday, Fairfield got the W thanks in part to Aubrey Stewart playing the best football she has all season. Stewart rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75% of her passes. The performance marked the most rushing yards she has had since back in September. Fairfield is undefeated when Stewart posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 3-4 otherwise.
Burbank had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Stewart it was a similar story. Back in September (the last time Stewart saw the Titans), she rushed for 127 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 183 yards and two touchdowns.

Sariah Williams Goes Supernova in Fairfield Victory
Sariah Williams was instrumental in extending Fairfield's winning streak to eight on Thursday. Williams turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 140 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, while also picking up 76 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Her longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain her lofty yards per carry total.
If history really does repeat itself, Williams might just drop another big game when she faces off against Johnson on Thursday. Back in September (the last time Williams saw the Warriors), she rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.

Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Deyonce Espinal stepped things up a notch to give Valley the 'W'. Espinal was dynamite, making two total tackles and defending two passes. She also punched in two rushing touchdowns, which is notable because Valley is 3-1 when she posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 5-6 otherwise.
Espinal must have West Campus's number; she was a force to be reckoned with the last time she faced them too. Back in September (the last time Espinal saw the Warriors), she made a tackle and snagged four interceptions.

Foster Made Her Presence Known in Florin's 39-6 Loss

For the season, Foster has caught 7 touchdowns while averaging 25.2 receiving yards per game.
