Tucker Wolf Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Tucker Wolf was a major factor in Grace Christian Academy's victory over Whites Creek on Friday. Wolf was excellent, picking up 212 receiving yards and three touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average receiving yardage north of 100 yards per game (127).
Wolf must have Whites Creek's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Wolf picked up 97 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Cobras duked it out back in October of 2023.
