Logan Jerry Delivers Best Effort of Season
Milton Hershey was led to victory by Logan Jerry, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Jerry rushed for 314 yards and six touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 50 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack, forcing a fumble, and making ten total tackles.
