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 Delivers Electric Performance Vs West Washington
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.
Unfortunately for West Washington, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Dent. 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.

A Season-Best Effort from Samuel Conn Leads Silver Creek over Corydon Central
On Friday, Silver Creek got the W thanks in part to Samuel Conn playing the best football he has all season. Conn rushed for 160 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Corydon Central's probably not too fond of Conn given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Conn saw the Panthers), he rushed for 72 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries.

Carson Lawyer's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Corydon Central over Silver Creek
Corydon Central had to settle for second on Friday, but Carson Lawyer sure wasn't going down easily. Silver Creek had no answer to Lawyer as he rushed for 179 yards while picking up 8.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 58 receiving yards. Lawyer showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 61 yards.
Lawyer might have his next game, a home matchup with North Harrison, circled on his calendar. 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 effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Scottsburg. Nobody could stop Boling as he picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown.
The loss snapped Scottsburg's winning streak at six games and leaves them with a 6-3 record. They and Owen Valley are set to duel on Friday.

Christian Grayson Has Career-Day on Friday
Christian Grayson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Charlestown to the win on Friday. 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.
With the victory, Charlestown broke their five-game losing streak and moved their record to 2-7. Grayson and Charlestown will venture away from home to square off against Martinsville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
