The Washington Generals attacked hard on offense, defense, and special teams to secure a 55-0 win over the Jordan Bulldogs. The victory gives Washington Prep a 4-2 overall record and Jordan now has a 5-2 overall record in their first Metro league loss.
“I feel like we just kept our head up, we fought,” said junior wide receiver Logan Johnson “We didn’t let nothing happen, nothing bring us down and we fought until the end, like we always do.”
The Generals set the tone at kick-off when senior Anthony Whitsey sprinted in a return for a touchdown. Whitsey noted how he wants to put his best foot forward anytime he can.
“I want these offers, I’m trying to go to college,” Whitsey said. “I got to show out every time, 110 percent, not just 100 percent, ball out 110 percent.”
