A Season-Best Performance from Demetris Johnson Leads Vigor over Elberta

Demetris Johnson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Vigor to the win on Friday. Johnson rushed for 163 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.6 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.

Jabarrius Garror Goes Supernova in Vigor Victory

Jabarrius Garror's big game helped extend Vigor's winning streak to seven on Friday. Garror was unstoppable, picking up a sack, forcing a fumble, and making 12 total tackles (5.0 for loss). He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last eight games he's played dating back to last season.

Elberta's probably not too fond of Garror given he always seems to get the better of them. When Garror last faced the Warriors back in October of 2023, he picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made five total tackles.
