Fisher Leftwich Crosses Big Stat Threshold
On Friday, North Surry got the W thanks in part to Fisher Leftwich playing the best football he has all season. Leftwich picked up 184 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 34 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average receiving yardage north of 100 yards per game (101.6). He continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played.
North Wilkes's probably not too fond of Leftwich given he always seems to get the better of them. When Leftwich last faced the Vikings back in September of 2023, he picked up 134 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
