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 Goes Supernova in Salem Victory
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.
Dent must have West Washington's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Dent rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.5 yards per carry the last time he and the Senators duked it out back in October of 2023.

Lawyer Made His Presence Known in Corydon Central's 35-34 Defeat
While Carson Lawyer delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Corydon Central. Lawyer turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 179 yards while picking up 8.5 yards per carry, and also picking up 58 receiving yards. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 61 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Lawyer might just drop another big game when he faces off against North Harrison on Friday. When Lawyer last faced the Cougars back in September, he rushed for 257 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per carry, and also picked up 30 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 33.45
While Garrett Boling delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Scottsburg. Brownstown Central had no answer to Boling as he picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown.
With the defeat, Scottsburg broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 6-3. They and Owen Valley are set to duel on Friday.

Christian Grayson Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Charlestown got the W thanks in part to Christian Grayson playing the best football he has all season. 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 to take on Martinsville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
