Russell Christian Academy Gets a Boost from Jones in 68-8 Victory
Ty Jones's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his 14th-straight game with 106+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He rushed for 141 yards and four touchdowns on only seven carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 59 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
If history really does repeat itself, Jones might just drop another big game when he faces off against Tuscaloosa Christian on Friday. When Jones last faced Tuscaloosa Christian back in September, he rushed for 220 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.2 yards per carry, and also threw for 72 yards and a touchdown.

He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made ten total tackles (4.0 for loss).
