Great Lakes 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!
Dashawn Woods Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Hammond Morton got the W thanks in part to Dashawn Woods playing the best football he has all season. Woods' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 111 rushing yards. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 85 yards.
The victory was the third in a row for Hammond Morton, bringing their record for this year to 3-4. Woods and Hammond Morton will face off against East Chicago Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Davion Terry Sets Career High in Rushing Yards

Hammond Central moved to 3-5 with that win, which also ended their three-game losing streak. Terry and Hammond Central have the luxury of staying home for another week and will welcome Hanover Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
