The final week of the regular season brought out some impressive performances from south Charlotte athletes. Starting with ...

Elijah Hood, RB, Charlotte Catholic: 360 yards on 18 carries and four touchdowns in a win over Olympic. That broke a school record for yardage and is also the third-highest single game total in county history. The scary part is that I was at the game watching and, yes, he was playing well, but it just seemed like any other game with Hood. Until I looked at the numbers.

Josh Glisson, RB, Butler: 20 carries for 167 yards and three scores in the Bulldogs’ 33-14 win over Independence in the Southwestern 4A championship game. He also had a 50-yard kick return for a score plus three receptions for 57 yards.Glisson doesn't always get the recognition during games, but he's been crucial for the Bulldogs while Riley Ferguson has been injured.

Jaquavion Alexander, RB, Ross Jeffries, QB, Myers Park: Alexander had 152 yards and two touchdowns rushing and Jeffries was 10-for-15 passing for 188 yards and three touchdowns in Myers Park's upset over Rocky River to earn a spot in the playoffs. Impressive play in a clutch game for the Mustangs.

CJ Thompson, WR, South Mecklenburg: 11 catches for 190 yards, a touchdown, an interception and the game winning two-point conversion in South Meck's come from behind win against East Meck.
