INEZ — Martin County defense earned the Mountain Citizen Play of the Week.

The Cards were in front 27-20 and needed a stop with less than three minutes remaining. Prestonsburg faced a fourth-and-3 and handed off to Ethan Jarvis, the state’s leading rusher. Jarvis tried to run through the middle, but a red and white wall was waiting for him.

Madden Miller found his way past two defenders to send the Blackcat flying into the air. Miller held on to the runner’s leg for dear life as his teammates rushed in to push Jarvis back. Caleb Costa, Julian Stafford, Damian Cheek and Noah Mollett swarmed the runner at the line of scrimmage.

The officials brought the chains out, and the Cards had put a halt on Prestonsburg’s drive to clinch the game.
