James Stampley Turns in Season-Best Effort
James Stampley produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Kankakee to the win on Saturday. Stampley picked up 148 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Bloom's probably not too fond of Stampley given he always seems to get the better of them. Stampley rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries the last time he and the Blazing Trojan duked it out back in October of 2023.
