Jamarcuz Fountain Delivers Best Effort of Season

Fountain rushed for 207 yards on only 15 carries, and also threw for 102 yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 62 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Pensacola's loss was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 3-4. Fountain will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against St. Michael Catholic on Friday.
