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!
HANK HAGENBARTH Drops League-Best Performance on Friday
Starting off the list is Beaverhead County's HANK HAGENBARTH, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. HAGENBARTH rushed for 79 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles.
Beaverhead County pushed their record up to 4-1 with the win, which was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season. HAGENBARTH and Beaverhead County will venture away from home to take on Hamilton at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

A Season-Best Performance from Carson Gulick Leads Whitefish over Bigfork
Whitefish was led to victory by Carson Gulick, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Gulick rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 139 yards and three touchdowns.
Gulick and Whitefish will take on Stevensville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Yellowjackets, probably because Gulick had a solid game then too: he threw for 214 yards and three touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Shaedon Perry Turns in Season-Best Performance
Shaedon Perry produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Polson to the win on Friday. Perry rushed for 87 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Polson's win bumped their record up to 4-2. Perry and Polson will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Whitefish at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.

Frenchtown's win was their sixth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-0. Schmill and Frenchtown will take on Ronan at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
