Sierra Delta 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!
Henri Reed Delivers Best Effort of Season
Lindhurst was led to victory by Henri Reed, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Reed rushed for 191 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.1 yards per carry, and also picked up 34 receiving yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making 12 total tackles.
Reed and Lindhurst will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Mesa Verde at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th. The last time Reed took on the Mavericks, he rushed for 133 yards on only 13 carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Preston Radich stepped things up a notch to give Golden Sierra the 'W'. Nobody could stop Radich as he picked up 162 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, cutting upfield on a catch for 65 yards.
Golden Sierra pushed their record up to 4-3 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Radich's next match is against Mesa Verde on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance.
