Dawson Sims Puts an End to Windsor Academy's Losing Streak on Friday
Windsor Academy's seven-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Dawson Sims.

What's more, he also racked up 100 rushing yards, the most he's had since back in August.
On the year, Sims has averaged 7.7 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 5.5 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 38.9 rushing yards.
