Hoosier Heritage 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!
Cooper Hinton Dazzles in Greenfield-Central Win
Starting off the list is Greenfield-Central's Cooper Hinton, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hinton made 16 total tackles (1.0 for loss). The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Hinton must have New Castle's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Hinton last faced the Trojans back in October of 2023, he picked up a sack, made seven total tackles (3.0 for loss), and defended two passes.
Gamescore: 73.25
Ranes Posts Huge Game in 38-0 Victory
Josh Ranes's big game helped extend New Palestine's winning streak to seven on Friday. Ranes was dynamite, rushing for 235 yards while picking up 12.4 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 75-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Ranes might just drop another big game when he faces off against Mt. Vernon on Friday. When Ranes last faced the Marauders back in September, he rushed for 119 yards and four touchdowns on only 13 carries.

New Palestine Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Jacob Davis
Jacob Davis's big game helped extend New Palestine's winning streak to seven on Friday. Davis turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 138 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for 44 yards and two touchdowns.
On the season, Davis has thrown 17 touchdowns (and and only 1 picks) while averaging 152.9 passing yards per game.

Keaton Jones Delivers Electric Performance Vs Shelbyville
Keaton Jones was a major factor in Pendleton Heights's victory over Shelbyville on Friday. Nobody could stop Jones as he rushed for 124 yards and four touchdowns.
If history really does repeat itself, Jones might just drop another big game when he faces off against New Castle on Friday. Jones rushed for 225 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.4 yards per carry the last time he and the Trojans duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 37.68
Cade Logston Makes Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Cade Logston of New Castle. Logston made six total tackles and defended a pass. He was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 59 yards.
New Castle is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-5. Logston's next match is against Pendleton Heights on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
