Standout Performances from Tupelo’s Weekly 7v7

Ty Davis, Itawamba AHS, 6-3 202, QB Ty was on fire today at Tupelo’s weekly 7v7. He was showing off that big arm and threading the needle with his good throws. It was a hot one today and he was making a great effort every time he stepped on the field. He showed great placement on the deep passes today. It was great to see him putting so many passes on the money. Ty had a big year last season accumulating for over 2500 yards and 25 TDs. His completing percentage was 62 percent. He has proven even in pads he gets it done. Davis showed great leadership today as well. He was very vocal even when the junior varsity team was on the field. It won’t surprise anyone if he throws for 3,000 yards this season. [player_tooltip player_id="344100" first="Jeremiah" last="Harrell"], Tupelo, 6-3 185, QB Jerm was on point all day today. He was throwing missiles from every angle on the field today. This kid is very impressive. Has a big arm and knows how to direct his receivers. It’s good to see young QBs who are able to correct his receivers mistakes. He is very vocal on offense. Harrell hardly ever makes bad throws. It was good to see him be able to make some moves on the run today. He can hurt you more ways than one with his passing game. Today he showed that when he rolls out later this season defenses are going to want to tighten up their defense. He was throwing darts today. [player_tooltip player_id="121038" first="Conner" last="Armstrong"], Pontotoc, 6-2 220, QB Conner was showing off that smooth left arm in many ways today. He can throw some missiles as well. He can make the throws that helps receivers accumulate yards after the catch. He throws a very good deep ball as well. He puts a soft touch on it when he needs to and he can also put some zap on it to keep defenders catching up to an open receiver. Conner has nice feet work as well. He moves great when throwing the ball. He knows how to set up good throwing lanes. He gets his hips around well when he is on the move throwing the ball. [player_tooltip player_id="161267" first="Jalen" last="Washington"], Houston, 5-9 185, RB Jalen has gotten more shifty this summer. Today he was moving around with a lot of quick moves. He showed off those great hands as well. Jalen has a lot of talent and today he showed how elusive he is. On one pass he caught the ball was under thrown allowing the defender to get within touching reach of Jalen. He made a sure catch first and then quickly left the defender in the turf and kindly walked into the end zone. It was great seeing him today. EJ Stovall, Houston, 6-2 170, WR Did a great job catching the ball today. His effort at receiver can sometimes go unnoticed at Houston. Houston runs the ball a lot so when you see this kid making plays pay a lot of attention. The Hilltoppers don’t have a traditional QB this year and they have been playing 7v7 with guys who aren’t used to the position. It hasn’t stopped EJ from making plays. He somehow always finds a way to get it done. Today he was making great catches on throws that weren’t the best. EJ was getting nice separation on his routes today as well. He attacks the ball in the air. He makes nice grabs and doesn’t let the ball get to his body. He kept his head high and continued to make plays for his team all morning.
