Corbin Johnson Rounds Out Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Corbin Johnson of Russellville. Johnson made 13 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Russellville has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season. Johnson will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Fayette on Friday.
