INEZ — Martin County junior Ja Quan “Jay” Rufus’s performance in the Cardinal game at Shelby Valley earned him Mountain Citizen Play of the Week honors.

Rufus received the pigskin at the 50-yard line and broke two tackles as he ran up the middle. A Wildcat defender tried to bring the brute down, but he fought through for 8 more yards before going down on a 22-yard carry.

Rufus rushed for 79 yards on 10 carries in Thursday night’s contest.
