Jacob Monroe Delivers Best Performance of Season

Kolbe Little Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Laney got the W thanks in part to Kolbe Little playing the best football he has all season. Little threw for 222 yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Little and Laney are taking a road trip to take on New Hanover at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Little took on the Wildcats, he threw for 204 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
