Gavin Paul Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Sadly, Gavin Paul posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Middletown over East Pennsboro on Saturday. Paul rushed for 166 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (101). The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Middletown is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. Paul will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Big Spring on Friday.
