I had to watch Elijah’s performance against Caledonia, because, well, Elijah carried East Kentwood to the huge upset. His first highlight showcases an explosive 60-yard touchdown on what I can only call a HB dive. The right tackle pulls and pushes out the DT, the linebacker hits the wrong hole, and Elijah simply runs up the middle and he’s off to the races. Once he hits the open field, it was just a matter of if he was fast enough to score, and he was. The next play features a great outside zone run. Though the last play, Elijah scampers in the backfield for a moment before finding a WIDE open hole and taking advantage of the blown defense. Good on Elijah for having good enough vision and speed to turn some standard runs into explosive game-changing plays.
