Jackson Gets a Boost from Crowell in 48-0 Win
Jackson picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ezavier Crowell. Crowell turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 121 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries, while also picking up 33 receiving yards. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
If the past is any indication, Crowell could be in store for another big game when he takes on Satsuma on Friday. Crowell rushed for 113 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, and also picked up 46 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Gators duked it out back in October of 2023.
