Holly Pond’s Boston Gibbs led the charge in a record-setting performance last week. 

The junior running back totaled 269 yards and three touchdowns on just 16 carries — good for an average of 16.8 yards per tote — to help the Broncos run wild and crazy in a 74-35 home victory over Hanceville. He also converted a 2-point conversion. 

Gibbs — along with Sawyer Olinger, Zayne Faulkner and Brody Howard — combined to rush for 517 yards en route to Holly Pond posting its highest single-game point total in program history. 

He is The Times’ Athlete of the Week. 

Athlete of the Week, which is sponsored by Mitch Smith Chevrolet, is open to all local athletes.
