Jordan Williams was a major factor in Ord's win over Centura on Friday. Williams did his part (and then some), rushing for 113 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries, while also throwing for 119 yards and a touchdown on perfect 5-for-5 passing for the 'W'. His longest rush was for an incredible 73 yards.
This season, Williams has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 112.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging two rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 85.29 rushing yards.
