Hoosier - Big School 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Dawson Martin Leads West Lafayette over Twin Lakes
West Lafayette was led to victory by Dawson Martin, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Martin rushed for 219 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 71-yard run.
Unfortunately for Twin Lakes, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Martin. Martin rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Indians duked it out back in October of 2023.
