Eastern Indiana - Small 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!
Quinn Gillman's Big Game Leads Franklin County over Batesville
Starting off the list is Franklin County's Quinn Gillman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Gillman threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.2 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 85 yards. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making seven total tackles and defending a pass.
The victory was the third in a row for Franklin County, bringing their record for this year to 5-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats faces off against Bluffton at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 50.13
Kruthaupt Posts Huge Game in 31-17 Win
Keeping Gillman company is Braylon Kruthaupt, a fellow Franklin County player. He picked up 122 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He got the majority of those receiving yards when he pulled down a pass and took off for a gain of 70 yards.
For the year, Kruthaupt has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 85.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 7.13 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 39.53
A Constellation of Stars for Franklin County
Another Franklin County player making an appearance on this list is Jack Seals. He picked up 89 receiving yards and a touchdown.
On the year, Seals has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 40.9 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.13 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 37.40
Gage Pohlman Goes Supernova in Batesville Loss
Batesville was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Gage Pohlman did his best to prevent it. Pohlman was unstoppable, rushing for 135 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries. He is becoming a predictor of Batesville's success: when he posts at least 80 rushing yards the team is 4-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
Franklin County's probably not too fond of Pohlman given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Pohlman saw the Wildcats), he picked up 137 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
Gamescore: 29.08
Braydon Wilson Delivers Best Effort of Season
Rushville was led to victory by Braydon Wilson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Wilson picked up 112 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Rushville has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Wilson and Rushville will welcome Greensburg at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
