Eastern Indiana - Small 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!
Quinn Gillman Goes Supernova in Franklin County Win
Starting off the list is Franklin County's Quinn Gillman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Gillman threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.2 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 85 yards. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
The victory (which was Franklin County's third in a row) raised their record to 5-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats dukes it out withBluffton at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Jack Seals Makes It Two for Franklin County
Keeping Gillman company is Jack Seals, a fellow Franklin County player. He picked up 89 receiving yards and a touchdown.
This year, Seals has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 40.9 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one receiving touchdown.

Batesville Gets a Boost from Pohlman in 31-17 Defeat
While Batesville might've come up empty on Friday, Gage Pohlman wasn't going down without a fight. Pohlman turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 135 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries. He has become a key player for Batesville: the team is 4-1 when he posts at least 80 rushing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Pohlman must have Franklin County's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Pohlman saw the Wildcats), he picked up 137 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
Gamescore: 29.08
Another Franklin County player making an appearance on this list is Braylon Kruthaupt. He picked up 122 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
On the year, Kruthaupt has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 85.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 7.13 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 28.28
Braydon Wilson Delivers Best Effort of Season
Rushville was led to victory by Braydon Wilson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Wilson picked up 112 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Rushville has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Wilson and Rushville will square off against Greensburg at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
