Christian Tilton rushed for 247 yards and all four JPII touchdowns at home on Friday night, Aug. 18, including an 80-yard run for the go-ahead score in the Golden Warriors’ first win over the Rebels, 28-21, in seven tries.

Tilton injured his throwing hand early in the game and started 2-for-6 passing for 27 yards before deciding to do it all with his legs, outdueling THA star Tony O’Banner, who racked up 159 yards from scrimmage with a rushing score and a kickoff return touchdown, but couldn’t top Tilton.

Sebastian Slusne led a strong defensive effort for JPII with 10 tackles, while Daniel Snyder added eight with three for loss in a head-to-head battle with his brother, Caleb, who is the Rebels’ quarterback. Dante Aiken had a pair of interceptions to help the Golden Warriors hang on.

O’Banner rushed for 85 yards and a TD on 10 carries and had two catches for 74 yards, and Beau Pinckney led THA’s defense with 12 tackles, one for loss, and a fumble recovery.
