Quinn Gillman Goes Supernova in Franklin County Victory

If the past is any indication, Gillman could be in store for another big game when he takes on Batesville on Friday. Two weeks ago (the last time Gillman saw the Bulldogs), he threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.2 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 85 yards.

A Season-Best Effort from Bryson Abplanalp Leads Greensburg over Purdue Poly Englewood
Greensburg's 19-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Bryson Abplanalp. Abplanalp produced his best game of the campaign on Friday: he threw for 184 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making ten total tackles (1.0 for loss).
This season, Abplanalp has thrown those 3 touchdowns while averaging 71.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 29.4 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 50.17 passer rating.
Gamescore: 35.32
Carson Kilgore helped snap Greensburg's 19-game losing streak dating back to last season. Kilgore produced his best game of the campaign on Friday: he picked up 106 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, connecting on a big catch for 59 yards.
For the season, Kilgore has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 36.5 receiving yards per game.

Kayden Kerr Makes It Two for Franklin County
The second Franklin County player making an appearance here is Kayden Kerr, and for good reason. He made eight total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended a pass.
On the year, Kerr has averaged 5.6 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 9.1 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 15.4 receiving yards.
