Cam Hollaway Turns in Season-Best Performance

Villarreal Posts Huge Game in 28-20 Defeat
Another Columbus East player making an appearance on this list is Kyson Villarreal. He threw for 163 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 passes, and also rushed for 85 yards on only 12 carries.
Villarreal and Columbus East will face off against Jeffersonville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Olympians got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Red Devils, probably because Villarreal had a solid game then too: he rushed for 74 yards, and also threw for 95 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
