There weren’t a ton of bright spots for South Hardin on Friday afternoon, but one couldn’t leave its matchup with West Lyon and say the Wildcats went untested. Sam Benson was a key reason why.

The senior receiver and defensive back hybrid showed off the ball skills that carried he and the ariel attack of the Tigers all season long — on offense and defense. Hauling in some difficult catches to finish with three catches for 51 yards, along with an interception he contorted his body to high point and haul in, Benson was effective on both sides of the ball. He finished with nine tackles, as well.
