NCISAA Big South Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Performance from Ian Cline Leads Providence Day over Charlotte Christian
On Thursday, Providence Day got the W thanks in part to Ian Cline playing the best football he has all season. Cline rushed for 275 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 39 receiving yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Cline must have Charlotte Christian's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Cline rushed for 223 yards and a touchdown while picking up 11.7 yards per carry the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in November of 2023.
