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 Effort from Dawson Martin Leads West Lafayette over Twin Lakes
On Friday, West Lafayette got the W thanks in part to Dawson Martin playing the best football he has all season. 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. His longest rush was for an incredible 71 yards.
Martin must have Twin Lakes's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Martin last faced the Indians back in October of 2023, he rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns.
