Mid-Southern 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!
Logan Dent Delivers Electric Effort Vs West Washington
Starting off the list is Salem's Logan Dent, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Dent rushed for 164 yards and three touchdowns. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 131 rushing yards dating back to last season.
West Washington's probably not too fond of Dent given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Dent saw the Senators), he rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.5 yards per carry.

Lawyer Came Up Big in Corydon Central's 35-34 Defeat
While Corydon Central might've come up empty on Friday, Carson Lawyer wasn't going down without a fight. Despite the defeat, Lawyer was still balling out as he rushed for 179 yards while picking up 8.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 58 receiving yards. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 61 yards.
If the past is any indication, Lawyer could be in store for another big game when he takes on North Harrison on Friday. Lawyer rushed for 257 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per carry, and also picked up 30 receiving yards the last time he and the Cougars duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 33.45
Scottsburg had to settle for second on Friday, but Garrett Boling sure wasn't going down easily. Despite the loss, Boling was still balling out as he picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Scottsburg moved to 6-3 with that defeat, which also ended their six-game winning streak. They and Owen Valley are set to duel on Friday.

Christian Grayson Delivers Best Effort of Season
Charlestown was led to victory by Christian Grayson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Grayson threw for 106 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 33 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
The victory snapped Charlestown's losing streak at five games and leaves them with a 2-7 record. Grayson and Charlestown will head out on the road to face off against Martinsville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
