Booker T. Washington Gets a Boost from Murphy in 23-0 Defeat
The second Booker T. Washington player making an appearance here is Darius Murphy, and for good reason. He made 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss). He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
