Briarwood Academy Gets a Boost from Mosley in 35-18 Defeat
Briarwood Academy had to settle for second on Friday, but Charlie Mosley sure wasn't going down easily. Edmund Burke Academy had no answer to Mosley as he rushed for 181 yards and three touchdowns.
Mosley must have Edmund Burke Academy's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Mosley rushed for 177 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Spartans duked it out back in November of 2023.
