<p>I was on the sideline for the matchup between a ranked team and an unranked team. CE Jordan High School, a ranked team which featured a high-powered running game. Millbrook High School, an unranked team which featured a high-powered passing attack. Millbrook unleashed the passing attack and the defensive unit contained Jordan's running game and finished the game with a 33-22 victory. The listed players caught my attention throughout the game.</p>
