A Season-Best Performance from Tabor Offord Leads Saint James over Cleburne County
On Friday, Saint James got the W thanks in part to Tabor Offord playing the best football he has all season. Offord picked up 177 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Saint James' success: when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-3 when he doesn't).
Saint James pushed their record up to 5-3 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home. Offord and Saint James will venture away from home to square off against Tallassee at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
