Hoosier Hills 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Mikey Wright Leads Seymour over Jennings County

This year, Wright has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 147.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 7.73 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 96.95 passer rating.

While Jared Brooks delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Columbus East. Brooks was dynamite, picking up 73 receiving yards and a touchdown.
With the loss, Columbus East broke their four-game winning streak and moved their record to 4-3. Brooks and Columbus East will be playing in front of their home fans against Jeffersonville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
