Everglades had to settle for second on Monday, but JADARIEN CANTON JR sure wasn't going down easily. CANTON JR was unstoppable, picking up a sack and making six total tackles (5.0 for loss).
Everglades has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season. CANTON JR will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Miramar on Friday.
