Miles Woods Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sadly, Miles Woods posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Carl Hayden Community over Youngker on Friday. Woods rushed for 221 yards and a touchdown while picking up 11.6 yards per carry. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 57 yards.
On the season, Woods has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 95.2 rushing yards per game.

Christopher Calderon Turns in Season-Best Performance
Youngker was led to victory by Christopher Calderon, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Calderon rushed for 148 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.8 yards per carry. He is becoming a predictor of Youngker's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
For the season, Calderon has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 52.7 rushing yards per game.

A Season-Best Effort from Tyler Mcnally Leads Greenway over Glendale
On Friday, Greenway got the W thanks in part to Tyler Mcnally playing the best football he has all season. Mcnally threw for 245 yards and four touchdowns on only 19 passes, and also rushed for 34 yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023.
If the past is any indication, Mcnally could be in store for another big game when he takes on Peoria on Friday. Mcnally threw for 289 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.0 yards per attempt the last time he and the Panthers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Carmelo Goe Dazzles in Moon Valley Loss
Rounding off our Top Five is Carmelo Goe of Moon Valley. Goe picked up 0.5 sacks, made 14 total tackles (4.0 for loss), and defended a pass. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
Moon Valley moved to 3-3 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak. Goe and Moon Valley will be playing in front of their home fans against Youngker at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
