Don't know. Didn't see the game.
Again, Zimmerly gets the yards, but the line is largely what makes that possible. Any running back will tell you that he lives and dies by his line. Zimmerly behind a horrible line would have horrible numbers. Zimmerly behind an excellent line will have excellent numbers. That applies to virtually any starting running back. Ultimately, I doubt there is a running back in the WCAL who wouldn't be seen as the "hands down" best if he was running behind Norwayne's line.
To give everyone an idea of just how productive he's been all year, tonight he ran for 324 yards on 34 carries, and his per-carry average on the season actually dropped. It's just unreal.
It's hard to definitely say. I still maintain that he's one of the best in the area, and that he should certainly get some looks, especially after tonight.
I think the world of what Harbour is doing over there, and the entire offense should be proud of the running and passing effort that this team can put up on any given night. The line and receivers block when Zimmerly gets the call to pound the ground, and that team blocks EXTRAORDINARILY.
I also do have to say this: I've been extremely impressed with what I've heard about their quarterback this year. He has obviously stepped up to fill some big shoes, and I think he's done it as well as anyone could have done it. He should be quite proud.
