Indiana 5A State Championship Standout Performances

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Warsaw had a rocky start to the season and completely turned things around. Decatur Central came close last year and came back hungry this year as they got the win </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["223703"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-674bdb79b4e14"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Polston was poised tonight and it was clear that the experience has made a world of a difference. He was confident all night long and tossed 2 TDs and went 12 of 17 for 147 yards and added 30 yards on the ground. An overall solid performance from Polston helped vault them over the top as state champions.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["401645"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-674bdb79b4e67"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Warsaw scrapped and clawed most of the game, but it was Carter who took over late. He had 3 TDs on the night on the ground, including a 74 yard TD run which helped open up the gap. He scored 2 4-yard touchdowns when they got deep in the redzone. Carter's 200 scrimmageyards and hat-trick of TDs was as good of a performance as you can have at the biggest stage.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["756262"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-674bdb79b4eaf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hicks was big for Decatur Central tonight as not only did he score a pair of TDs, but he was on the receiving end of the opening score of the game. A 38-yard TD got things rolling. He later caught an 8-yard TD to go up 2 scores. Hicks carried the ball 9 times for 60 yards and then led the team with 6 catches and in receiving yards with 91. Hicks's versatility and explosiveness come through week after week, including when the lights are brightest.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1569786"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-674bdb79b4ef3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sullivan gave Warsaw everything he had on every down of his career for them. He didn't go down without a fight tonight and put another fantastic performance together with all things considered. He scored on the ground for Warsaw's first points of the night from 1 yard out. He later added a 5-yard TD pass in the 4th but it wasn't enough as they fell to DC.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
