(VIDEO) Player of the Week: Wood's second dominating night earns Jefferson RB award

Posted 11:15AM on Tuesday 1st September 2015 ( 8 years ago )

Heading into the season Jefferson coaches and players knew that Colby Wood would be an asset.

Two games into the campaign the sophomore running back is beginning to out-run even the highest expectations, however.

Wood has rolled up 503 yards rushing on 60 carries, scoring eight total touchdowns to help the Dragons move to 2-0. In fact he has had a hand in every touchdown Jefferson has scored so far on this young campaign.

This past week's performance was especially impressive, as Wood rushed for 239 yards and four scores, caught a 21-yard touchdown pass and also came up big on defense, where he recovered a fumble, intercepted a pass and recorded a tackle for loss in a 32-17 defeat of Winder-Barrow.

For his efforts has been named the Locos Grill and Pub Friday Game Night Player of the Week. To watch a video interview with the young standout simply press "play" above.
