AA - Western 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!
Kobe Dorcheus Goes Supernova in Glacier Win
Starting off the list is Glacier's Kobe Dorcheus, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Dorcheus rushed for 131 yards and three touchdowns. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up 1.5 sacks and making three total tackles.
Butte's probably not too fond of Dorcheus given he always seems to get the better of them. When Dorcheus last faced the Bulldogs back in September, he rushed for 131 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries.
Gamescore: 45.35
Big Sky was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Cormack Batt did his best to prevent it. Batt turned in nothing short of a gem, making 11 total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making 11 total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass.
On the season, Batt has averaged 6.2 total tackles per game. It gets even more impressive: after ten games last season, he was only averaging 10.2 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 35.7 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 39.05
Avery Omlid Makes It Two for Big Sky
Another Big Sky player making an appearance on this list is Avery Omlid. He threw for 258 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72% of his passes.
This season, Omlid has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 179.4 passing yards per game.

Sadly, Blake Williams posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Big Sky over Billings West on Friday. Williams made 19 total tackles.
For the season, Williams has averaged 7.5 total tackles per game.
