A - 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!
HANK HAGENBARTH Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Beaverhead County's HANK HAGENBARTH, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. HAGENBARTH rushed for 79 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles.
Beaverhead County pushed their record up to 4-1 with the victory, which was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season. HAGENBARTH and Beaverhead County will head out to face off against Hamilton at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Carson Gulick Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Whitefish got the W thanks in part to Carson Gulick playing the best football he has all season. Gulick rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 139 yards and three touchdowns.
Gulick and Whitefish will take on Stevensville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Yellowjackets, probably because Gulick had a solid game then too: he threw for 214 yards and three touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

This year, Savik has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 49.5 receiving yards per game.

Shaedon Perry produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Polson to the win on Friday. Perry rushed for 87 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 50 yards.
Polson's win bumped their record up to 4-2. Perry and Polson will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Whitefish at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.
