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 Dazzles in Franklin County Victory
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 win (which was Franklin County's third in a row) raised their record to 5-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats takes on Bluffton at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

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. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 70 yards.
This season, Kruthaupt has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 85.8 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 7.13 receiving yards per game.

Jack Seals Makes It Three 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 season, Seals has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 40.9 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 2.13 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 37.40
Gage Pohlman Goes Supernova in Batesville Loss
While Batesville might've come up empty on Friday, Gage Pohlman wasn't going down without a fight. Despite the defeat, Pohlman was still balling out as he rushed for 135 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries. He has become a key player for Batesville: the team is 4-1 when he posts at least 80 rushing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Franklin County had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Pohlman it was a similar story. Pohlman picked up 137 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries the last time he and the Wildcats duked it out back in October of 2023.

A Season-Best Effort from Braydon Wilson Leads Rushville over South Dearborn
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 is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Wilson and Rushville will be playing at home against Greensburg at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
