‘Blessed’: Bolles RB Xander Edwards reflects on record rushing performance

Xander Edwards rushed for an area-high 522 yards on 39 carries in a 73-39 win over Baldwin last Friday night, totals that quickly traveled from that small town all across the country. The yardage surpassed Yulee icon Derrick Henry’s high of 502 yards, set in a 45-28 win over Jackson in 2012. Henry broke Tampa Bay Tech’s Shawn Smith’s mark of 501 rushing yards in a game (1985 against East Bay). Henry never had more than six rushing touchdowns in a game in his historic career.
