NCISAA Big South Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Ian Cline Delivers Best Effort of Season
Ian Cline produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Providence Day to the win on Thursday. Cline rushed for 275 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 39 receiving yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Charlotte Christian's probably not too fond of Cline given he always seems to get the better of them. Cline rushed for 223 yards and a touchdown while picking up 11.7 yards per carry the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in November of 2023.
