Brady Hilgart of Grafton has been selected as the Week 4 Jolly Good Football Player of the Week following a statewide vote on WisSports.net. His big day helped the Black Hawks take down Wisconsin Lutheran in a come-from-behind victory to stay undefeated. He was chosen from a strong group of nominees in Week 4. A total of 5,624 were cast, as Hilgart's 1,725 were enough to edge out second place Brett Shutter of Plymouth, who tallied 1,657 votes.

Grafton rallied from a fourth-quarter deficit to score a key 43-34 win over Wisconsin Lutheran to remain undefeated in the Woodland Conference. Senior quarterback Brady Hilgart produced big play after big play in the passing game, including a 51-yard touchdown strike to Matthew Clemens to put the team ahead in the final period. He finished the day with 360 yards and five touchdowns, completing 16-of-27 passes.

Remember folks, the only way your favorite player can be named Jolly Good Football Player of the Week is to vote and share the word. Look for the Week 5 nominees to be posted Monday afternoon.
