Wabash River 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!
Cian Moore Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Cian Moore produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Covington to the win on Friday. Moore rushed for 390 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 15.0 yards per carry, and also picked up 69 receiving yards. Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 2.1 rushing touchdowns per game. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Moore might have his next game, a road matchup with Attica, circled on his calendar. When Moore last faced the Red Ramblers back in October of 2023, he rushed for 303 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.2 yards per carry, and also picked up 55 receiving yards.

A Season-Best Performance from Aj Goff Leads Riverton Parke over Attica
Aj Goff produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Riverton Parke to the win on Friday. Goff rushed for 168 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries, and also picked up 104 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Goff's next contest is against Parke Heritage on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort. The Panthers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Wolves, probably because Goff had a solid game then too: he picked up 57 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 37 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Dallas Coleman Turns in Season-Best Effort
South Vermillion was led to victory by Dallas Coleman, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Coleman rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also picked up 45 receiving yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 66 yards.
Fountain Central had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Coleman it was a similar story. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Coleman saw the Mustangs), he rushed for 87 yards and three touchdowns, and also picked up 34 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Matthew Dawson's Big Game Leads North Vermillion over Parke Heritage
Matthew Dawson's big game helped extend North Vermillion's winning streak to three on Friday. Dawson was dynamite, rushing for 135 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, while also throwing for 198 yards and two touchdowns.
North Vermillion's win was their fourth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Dawson and North Vermillion will welcome Fountain Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

South Vermillion Gets a Boost from Garzolini in 55-14 Victory
Dominic Garzolini was instrumental in extending South Vermillion's winning streak to seven on Friday. Garzolini turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 301 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 11.1 yards per attempt. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Garzolini will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Seeger on Friday. The Wildcats got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Patriots, probably because Garzolini had a solid game then too: he threw for 221 yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a rushing score. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
