Ryder Watson Delivers Best Performance of Season

A Season-Best Effort from Hunter Harrington Leads Cathedral Catholic over Madison

Jackson Came Up Big in Lincoln's 63-0 Victory
Lincoln picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Aden Jackson. St. Augustine had no answer to Jackson as he rushed for 69 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries.
Jackson and Lincoln will be playing in front of their home fans against Madison at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Hornets got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Warhawks, probably because Jackson had a solid game then too: he rushed for 69 yards and a touchdown on only six carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
