C2 District 2 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!
Gavin Baker Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Archbishop Bergan's Gavin Baker, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Baker picked up 174 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Archbishop Bergan's success: when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
Archbishop Bergan moved to 3-4 with that win, which also ended their four-game losing streak. Baker and Archbishop Bergan will welcome North Bend Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 42.07
While Dallin Franzlubbers delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Arlington. Nobody could stop Franzlubbers as he rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries.
Arlington dropped their record down to 2-5 with the loss, which was their third straight on the road. Franzlubbers and Arlington will head out to challenge Tekamah-Herman at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 31.65
Mcintosh Posts Huge Game in 34-24 Loss
Another Arlington player making an appearance on this list is Killian Mcintosh. He rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
On the year, Mcintosh has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 71.3 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns.
Gamescore: 29.20
Aj Arensberg and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Aj Arensberg's big game helped extend Yutan's winning streak to four on Friday. Arensberg did his part (and then some), making two total tackles (1.0 for loss) for the 'W'. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 53 yards.
Yutan's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-3. Arensberg and Yutan will square off against Aquinas at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 28.63
Cale Sheets Dazzles in Archbishop Bergan Victory
The second Archbishop Bergan player making an appearance here is Cale Sheets, and for good reason. He picked up 154 receiving yards and a touchdown. He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 63 yards.
This season, Sheets has caught 8 touchdowns while averaging 90.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 48.33 receiving yards per game.
