A Season-Best Performance from Mar?Quavis Thomas Leads J.L. Mann over Mauldin
On Saturday, J.L. Mann got the W thanks in part to Mar?Quavis Thomas playing the best football he has all season. Thomas picked up a sack and made four total tackles (3.0 for loss) in addition to snagging an interception.
J.L. Mann and Greenville are set to duel on Friday. Thomas better keep an eye on Ezekiel Belcher as he's been one of the Wildcats' best RB. Will Belcher have another big offensive game, or will Thomas keep him contained? We'll have our answer soon enough.
