A Season-Best Performance from Jacob Molina Leads Exeter over Washington Union
On Friday, Exeter got the W thanks in part to Jacob Molina playing the best football he has all season. Molina rushed for 96 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also threw for 184 yards and two touchdowns on only 17 passes. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023.
Molina is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Hanford West on Thursday. When Molina last faced the Huskies back in September of 2023, he threw for 296 yards and five touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.
