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!
Kingston Keanaaina Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Saint Francis got the W thanks in part to Kingston Keanaaina playing the best football he has all season. 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 victory (which was Saint Francis' third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Keanaaina and Saint Francis will challenge St. Ignatius College Preparatory at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Legend Williams Turns in Season-Best Performance
Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory was led to victory by Legend Williams, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Saturday. 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 has become a key player for Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Williams must have Archbishop Mitty's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Williams rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry the last time he and the Monarchs duked it out back in September of 2023.
