Isaiah Holliday was instrumental in extending Creekview's winning streak to seven on Friday. Holliday did his part (and then some), making six total tackles for the 'W'.
This year, Holliday has averaged 4.9 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 11.29 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 56.43 receiving yards.
