The Ranger offense was once again led by star senior running back Jimmie Burk, ’26, who rushed for 165 yards and three touchdowns, averaging 7.5 yards per carry.

Burk has a total of  1,062 scrimmage yards this season, and has a total of 13 rushing touchdowns, averaging 152 scrimmage yards per game.

Special teams also made some special plays, as the Rangers would block a punt and would take it all the way to the house for a Ranger touchdown, followed by Jarius Brooks, ’28, returning a punt all the way to the house for a touchdown.

The defense did an exceptional job, holding Marauder quarterback, Devin Rodriguez, to only 55 yards and intercepting the ball twice. The Rangers totaled 49 tackles; they have totaled 430 tackles as a team so far this season.

The Rangers are set to face the Golden West Trailblazers in a locally televised heavyweight EYL matchup in what many are calling the battle of Visalia. Will the Rangers knock off the Trailblazers? Show up to find out!
