The Leaderboard: Woodford, Philo, Gibson win regular-season yardage titles

Nick Woodford of Northeast, Aaron Philo of Prince Avenue Christian and Jaden Gibson of Rabun County are the GHSA’s regular-season yardage champions.

Woodford finished with a 242-yard rushing effort in his final game, a 51-13 victory over Rutland. Also finishing with more than 2,000 yards in the regular season were South Atlanta’s Keyjuan Brown, Johnson County’s Germivy Tucker and Hebron Christian’s Gavin Hall.

Brown played only nine games as South Atlanta had a cancellation that couldn’t be made up.

Hall was the state’s leading rusher among quarterbacks with 2,098 yards. He also passed for 1,500 yards.

In passing, Prince Avenue’s Philo threw for 500 yards in his final game, a 48-21 victory over Social Circle that decided the Region 8-A Division I championship. Philo played only nine games and averaged 349.2 yards per game, ahead of his pace of 324.4 from a season ago, when his full-season total of 4,540 was first in the state.

The receiving leader, Rabun County’s Gibson, is also a defending champion on a faster pace. He finished the regular season with 1,576 yards, or 157.6 per game. He averaged 144.5 per game last season when his 13-game total reached 1,878.

This is GHSF Daily’s final yardage Leaderboard. It won’t be updated during the playoffs.
