Hughson High had a tough start to the Trans-Valley League, scoring just 13 points in losses to Escalon and Livingston.

The Huskies broke out of their two-game skid Friday, Oct. 1, with a 63-0 win over Modesto Christian.

Wide receiver Anthony Lopez was named one of the team’s players of the game, and for good reason. The 5-foot-9 senior had a breakout performance, leading Hughson’s offense with nine carries for 168 yards and five touchdowns.

Not only did the team notice, but the fans did as well, voting Lopez The Bee’s Week 7 Player of the Week.

Lopez received 40% of the more than 47,000 votes in our weekly poll.

He finished ahead of runner-up and Orestimba wide receiver Vincent Lopez (36%) and third-place finisher, Gregori quarterback Cruz Marines.
