Legend Williams Delivers Best Performance of Season
Legend Williams produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory to the win on Saturday. Williams rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory is undefeated when Williams posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Archbishop Mitty had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Williams it was a similar story. Williams rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry the last time he and the Monarchs duked it out back in September of 2023.

Sargent Came Up Big in Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory's 35-28 Victory
Michael Sargent posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He threw for 268 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.7 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
On the year, Sargent has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 222.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 13.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 24.67 rushing yards.
