Jamar Hicks Has Career-Day on Friday
On Friday, South Granville got the W thanks in part to Jamar Hicks playing the best football he has all season. Hicks rushed for 152 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 107 or more in the last three games he's played.
If the past is any indication, Hicks could be in store for another big game when he takes on J.F. Webb on Friday. When Hicks last faced the Warriors back in October of 2023, he rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries.
