Jalen Addie passed for 173 yards and rushed for 110 in Warner Robins' 22-19 victory over No. 1 Ware County last week.
Neither yardage number was a career high for the two-year starter, but what isn’t easily counted is the leadership and play-making on an 89-yard drive for the game-winning touchdown with 2:12 left. Addie also played in the secondary, participating in 53 plays overall.
“His play definitely was the difference in the game,” Warner Robins coach Marquis Westbrook said. “Even though they weren’t spectacular, numbers don’t tell it all. The last drive was as big as I have been a part of.”
A two-year starter, Addie has led Warner Robins to victories over five top-10 opponents.
