Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Performance from Kingston Keanaaina Leads Saint Francis over Junipero Serra
Kingston Keanaaina produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Saint Francis to the win on Friday. Keanaaina rushed for 323 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.5 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 76-yard run.
The win (which was Saint Francis' third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Keanaaina and Saint Francis will square off against St. Ignatius College Preparatory at 4:30 p.m. on Friday.

Legend Williams Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Saturday, Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory got the W thanks in part to Legend Williams playing the best football he has all season. Williams rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He is becoming a predictor of Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
Archbishop Mitty had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Williams it was a similar story. When Williams last faced the Monarchs back in September of 2023, he rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 35.98
While Kai Sniffen delivered a dominant performance on Saturday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Archbishop Mitty. Despite the defeat, Sniffen was still balling out as he picked up 21 receiving yards.
Archbishop Mitty is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-3. Sniffen and Archbishop Mitty will face off against Junipero Serra at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Gamescore: 28.27
Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory Gets a Boost from Sargent in 35-28 Victory
Michael Sargent posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He threw for 268 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.7 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
For the year, Sargent has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 222.2 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after six games last season, he was only averaging 13.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 24.67 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 27.07
Jonah Kroenung Makes It Two for Archbishop Mitty
The second Archbishop Mitty player making an appearance here is Jonah Kroenung, and for good reason. He threw for 163 yards and two touchdowns.
On the season, Kroenung has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 133.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 27.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 45.83 rushing yards.
