William Webb's 500-yard, 7-TD game eye-opening, but not surprising for EJ senior

East Jordan senior William Webb's performance in a Week 7 game against Johannesburg-Lewiston was nothing short of extraordinary. Webb, who plays both quarterback and wide receiver, amassed a staggering 526 all-purpose yards on just 14 touches. This translates to a remarkable 37.5 yards per touch. He added seven touchdowns to his tally – five passing, two rushing, one receiving, one interception return for a touchdown, and a 75-yard kickoff return for a score.

Webb's remarkable game highlights his versatility and all-around skills. As East Jordan coach Adam Grybauskas noted, "I think he's an incredible football player." Webb's success is not surprising given his background. He has been all-state in multiple sports – football, basketball, and baseball – and qualified for the state finals in track.

His unselfish play style, fostered by his coaches, has helped the Red Devils secure a strong position in the Northern Michigan Football Conference, with a record of 6-1 and 6-0 in the league.
