Second Straight WIn

Harris & Janous Go Over 200 Yards


The Raiders traveled to Hattiesburg to face Presbyterian Christian School in their fourth conference game of the season. The Raiders were riding a three-game win streak heading into the 15th meeting in the series. On this night, the Raiders had their offense shine like never before this season as they ran their way to a 51-33 victory over the Bobcats.

JA was able to run for a season high 503 yards against PCS and secure two 200-yard rushers in the process. The Bobcats struck first with a quick 6 play - 80 yard drive that ran just 1:32 off the clock. Ricco Dorsey ran in from 9 yards out. JA got the ball next and did just the opposite as they consumed 8:06 off the clock in a 15 play - 75 yard drive capped off by a Marcus Harris 2 yard run. After holding PCS to a quick three-and-out, JA grabbed the lead on a William Janous 36-yard scamper. The two teams traded TDs before a blocked field goal by Ricco Harris was scooped up and run in from 45 yards away. At the half, the Raiders held a slight lead of 21-19.

The Raiders began the second half with the first possession and marched the ball down the field quickly and Harris scored his third TD of the game. On the ensuing kickoff, Landon Lofton ran it back 95 yards for a touchdown to make it a three point game. The lone turnover of the game was a questionable fumble charged to the Raiders which resulted in a PCS score on a fourth down conversion giving PCS a 33-29 advantage. JA then put the ball into the hands of William Janous and he ran 86 yards for the go ahead score. After a successful onside kick, Harris added a 50 yard score (his career high 4th in the game), followed by a Parker Ryan 4 yard run to set the final margin.

JA will return to The Brickyard next Friday night as they take on Starkville Academy, with the kickoff at 7pm.
