Mosley Came Up Big in Briarwood Academy's 29-6 Victory
Charlie Mosley posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 196 yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 144 rushing yards dating back to last season.
If history really does repeat itself, Mosley might just drop another big game when he faces off against Thomas Jefferson Academy on Friday. Back in August of 2023 (the last time Mosley saw the Jaguars), he rushed for 188 yards and a touchdown while picking up 11.8 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown.
