In Marsh Valley's district-opening win at American Falls, running back Dylan Bybee ran over, around and through the Beavers' defense, lifting the Eagles to their sixth consecutive win, 41-14. For that, Bybee is the Idaho State Journal's Athlete of the Week.

Against American Falls, Bybee rushed for more than 300 yards and scored all six Eagles touchdowns. He averaged 19.4 yards per carry in the game. The senior has nine touchdowns in the last two weeks, and has averaged 242 yards a game over the last three weeks for the undefeated Eagles.

Marsh Valley locked up a playoff spot on Friday night by beating Bear Lake, and the now 7-0 Eagles will attempt to win the 3A Fifth Distric next week at home against Snake River.
