Hoosier Heritage 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!
Wilson Webster Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Yorktown got the W thanks in part to Wilson Webster playing the best football he has all season. Webster made ten total tackles, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the year, Webster has averaged 6.7 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 interceptions. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to four.

Joliba Brogan II Has Career-Day on Friday
