A Season-Best Performance from Tyler Sharp Leads Providence Christian over Abbeville
Tyler Sharp produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Providence Christian to the win on Friday. Sharp rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also picked up 49 receiving yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win (which was Providence Christian's fourth in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Sharp and Providence Christian will square off against Long at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Cottonwood Gets a Boost from Campbell in 57-6 Victory
Cottonwood picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to King Campbell. Campbell did his part (and then some), rushing for 200 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
On the year, Campbell has averaged 16 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 49.58
Craig Pittman Makes It Two for Providence Christian
Another Providence Christian player making an appearance on this list is Craig Pittman. He rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 61 yards and two touchdowns.
For the year, Pittman has thrown 11 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 112.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 12.71 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 83.14 rushing yards.
