A Season-Best Performance from Elliott Cahall Leads Heritage Academy over Western Scitech
Elliott Cahall produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Heritage Academy to the win on Friday. Cahall rushed for 200 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.0 yards per carry. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 65 yards.
Heritage Academy is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Cahall will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Imagine Prep on Saturday.
