The Platteville Hillmen have been selected as the Week 9 Team of the Week following a statewide vote on WSN. The team secured a share of the SWC title by running clock previously undefeated Lancaster. The Hillmen were chosen from a strong group of nominees in Week 9. A total of 4,708 votes were cast, as Platteville's 1,563 votes edged Lake Mills' 1,324.

The Hillmen hammered Lancaster 35-6 on Friday to force a three-way tie for the SWC crown along with River Valley. Platteville had a running clock early in the fourth quarter when Ethan Bernhardt connected with Cameron Brant on a 6-yard touchdown. Bernhardt finished with 126 yards and a pair of scores on 11 of 13 passing, while Luke Fugate added 137 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns.

Remember folks, the only way your favorite team can be named WSN Team of the Week is to vote and share the word. Look for the Level 1 nominees to be posted Monday afternoon.
