On Thursday Jalis Hughes racked up double-digit total tackles for the very first time. He made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss), but sadly Newton still had to take a 48-34 loss at the hands of Pelahatchie. We rated that as his best performance since September 19th, when he picked up three sacks and made six total tackles.
Coming up, Hughes and Newton will venture away from home to face off against Scott Central at 7:00 p.m. on the 17th. Hughes had to take a loss the last time the two teams duked it out, losing their contest back in October of 2024 42-6. If he drops another game like that, the outcome could be different this time around. Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other football content.
