On Thursday, Tompkins got the W thanks in part to Robert Bernard playing the best football he has all season. Bernard rushed for 170 yards and four touchdowns on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 56 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Bernard and Tompkins will venture away from home to take on Strake Jesuit at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Bernard will face off against John Hebert, the Fighting Crusaders' star rusher. Will the contest be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.
