Congratulations to Sheridan sophomore running back Isaiah "Zay" Stephens who was named the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Player of the Week for his performance Friday against undefeated Little Rock Catholic. Stephens piled up 421 yards of total offense and 6 touchdowns. He rushed 28 times for 219 yards and 3 touchdowns, and he caught 10 passes for 202 yards and 3 touchdowns. He became the first player Kevin Kelley has coached to record 200+ yards rushing and 200+ yards receiving in the same game.
Coach Kelley told the Democrat-Gazette, "I think he's the best running back in the state, and I think he's definitely the best sophomore in the state... I'm biased, but with his ability to catch and run out of the backfield and just create plays when it looks like there's nothing, he's unbelievable."
Through seven games, Stephens has 909 rushing yards, 621 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns. According to the Democrat-Gazette, Stephens is tied for second in the state for total touchdowns and leads all non-quarterbacks with 1,530 yards of offense.
Sheridan will be back in action tomorrow night at Marion. Go Jackets! #YJNation
