Oscar Rios' Big Game Leads Downey over Dominguez
Starting off the list is Downey's Oscar Rios, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Rios threw for 177 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes, and also rushed for 31 yards.
Unfortunately for Dominguez, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Rios. Rios threw for 316 yards and two touchdowns on only 18 passes, and also rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries the last time he and the Dons duked it out back in October of 2023.

Johnson Came Up Big in Mayfair's 42-21 Victory

La Mirada had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Johnson it was a similar story. When Johnson last faced the Matadores back in October of 2023, he rushed for 179 yards and two touchdowns.
