Sharpe Posts Huge Game in 21-14 Victory
Lebron Sharpe put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in November of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 148 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Sharpe must have Jacksonville's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Sharpe rushed for 257 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 15.1 yards per carry the last time he and the Cardinals duked it out back in October of 2023.

Karvin Magwood Makes It Two for New Bern
Another New Bern player making an appearance on this list is Karvin Magwood. He rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also picked up 35 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Northside - Jacksonville's probably not too fond of Magwood given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Magwood saw the Monarchs), he rushed for 84 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also picked up 31 receiving yards and a touchdown.

For the season, Holley has caught 7 touchdowns while averaging 85.4 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 50.86 receiving yards per game.
