Underclassman Pierce Wilson Comes Up Big Against Mount Paran Christian
While Greater Atlanta Christian couldn't topple Mount Paran Christian on Friday, it's impossible to ignore the impact made by underclassman Pierce Wilson. Mount Paran Christian had no answer to Wilson as he rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries. Wilson is becoming a predictor of Greater Atlanta Christian's success: when he posts at least 80 rushing yards the team is 4-1 (and 0-6 when he doesn't).
For the year, Wilson has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 39.5 rushing yards per game.
