Christ the King

(W) 70-7

From his quarterback position, Marcus Graham was 2 of 4 through the air for 78 yards and one touchdown. He was injured early in the game, according to the Gaston Gazette.


“I think Marcus is going to be fine,” head coach Robert Washington said. “It’s his knee. He’ll be back next week; there’s nothing torn. We probably could have played him again but I didn’t want to risk it.”
