Darren Goodman Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Redding Christian's Darren Goodman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Goodman picked up 53 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
If the past is any indication, Goodman could be in store for another big game when he takes on Maxwell on Friday. Back in September (the last time Goodman saw the Panthers), he picked up 143 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Big Game from Ogden As Redding Christian Won 29-0
Another Redding Christian player making an appearance on this list is Brodie Ogden. He picked up 58 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 15 yards and a touchdown. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made two total tackles.
On the season, Ogden has caught 10 touchdowns while averaging 70.3 receiving yards per game.

Lincoln Burlew Delivers Best Performance of Season
Redding Christian was led to victory by Lincoln Burlew, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Burlew wasn't messing around, picking up a sack and making ten total tackles (3.0 for loss). The game was his seventh straight with six or more total tackles.
For the year, Burlew has averaged 8.5 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 sacks. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging one total tackle per game.

Weed's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Marcus Horton
Thanks in part to Marcus Horton, Weed said goodbye to their three-game losing streak. Horton was dynamite on Friday, rushing for 91 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 150 yards and a touchdown.
On the year, Horton has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 102.1 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 23.

Logan Bowles Makes It Two for Weed
Keeping Horton company is Logan Bowles, a fellow Weed player. He picked up 74 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Bowles might have his next game, a home matchup with Los Molinos, circled on his calendar. When Bowles last faced the Bulldogs back in September of 2023, he rushed for 219 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.0 yards per carry.
