Vote: Who Was the Indiana High School Football Player of the Week? (Sept. 24-26, 2026)

These 12 Indiana high school football standouts gave fans plenty to consider when it came time to choose the nominees for this week's Indiana High School Football Player of the Week.

From quarterbacks putting up huge numbers through the air to running backs finding the end zone again and again, the performances covered just about every way a player can take over a game. One player topped 400 passing yards, another accounted for five touchdowns on the ground in just seven carries, and another piled up more than 300 yards of total offense while scoring four times.

Congratulations to last week's winner: Logan Parks of New Palestine.

One of the best performances of the week came courtesy of South Spencer's Tre Lance, who rushed for 195 yards and five touchdowns, and somehow still wasn't enough as his Rebels still lost 56-55 in overtime to North Posey.

It was still good enough, however, to make the cut here, and now it's up to you. Take a look at this week's nominees and their performances from Sept. 24-26, then cast your vote for the Indiana High School Football Player of the Week.
