Antonio Washington Delivers Best Performance of Season
Bell was led to victory by Antonio Washington, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Washington rushed for 251 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.0 yards per carry, and also threw for 22 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
McKinley Tech had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Washington it was a similar story. Washington rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries the last time he and the Trainers duked it out back in October of 2023.
