Hoosier - Big School 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!
Dawson Martin Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, West Lafayette got the W thanks in part to Dawson Martin playing the best football he has all season. Martin rushed for 219 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 71 yards.
Twin Lakes's probably not too fond of Martin given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Martin saw the Indians), he rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns.

Sigler Posts Huge Game in 14-13 Win
Hamilton Heights took down Tipton on Friday, a win that might not have happened without Joey Sigler's performance. Nobody could stop Sigler as he threw for 324 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 14.7 yards per attempt.
Hamilton Heights' win ended a four-game drought on the road and puts them at 3-5. Sigler and Hamilton Heights will square off against West Lafayette on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Quincy Jackson Leads Logansport over Western
