A Season-Best Effort from Jeremiah Shelley Leads Westbury over Waltrip
On Thursday, Westbury got the W thanks in part to Jeremiah Shelley playing the best football he has all season. Shelley wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks, forcing a fumble, and making nine total tackles (3.0 for loss). The match was his seventh straight with five or more total tackles. He is becoming a predictor of Westbury's success: when he posts at least one forced fumble the team is 2-1 (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
On the season, Shelley has averaged 7 total tackles per game and for the season has 10 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 4.38 total tackles per game.
