peoples_champ62 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 The storybook career of Jeriah Hightower comes to an end after a 184 yard performance against a very stingy Johnson Central run defense. Hightower's last outing made him the all-time leading rusher in Madisonville North Hopkins (MNHS) history, breaking the 50 year old record of Sonny Collins (former UK record holder prior to Benny Snell). Jeriah finished the season with 3,001 yards, which also is the single season record for MNHS, and ranks 8th all-time in Kentucky state history. Hightower has ran for 6,343 yards in his career, placing him 18th on the all-time career rushing list. Congratulations to this young man for the stellar career that he has had, especially since he did it while carrying a 3.8 GPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSfan Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 He was pretty much unstoppable in the games I saw him play. Congratulations to him and good luck in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroonman Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I've had the privilege of knowing Jeriah since he started middle school. He has always and even more so now, been a polite young man of outstanding character. I have truly enjoyed watching him mature off and on the field. He comes from an outstanding family who have truly instilled in him what it means to be a man of integrity. I will miss watching him lower his shoulder and take on anyone who was willing to challenge him then turn around and give them his hand to help them off the turf. A true spirit and will to win! Good luck in all your future endeavors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peoples_champ62 Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 West Virginia has shown interest. Louisville offered a PWO. He has a few FCS offers as well (Illinois State, UTM, TSU, EKU). I would assume he is weighing his options right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdon Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 WKU interest? Jeriah Hightower and Tre Bass would be an interesting combo in Big Red's backfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Preston Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 He should be on a roster next fall if he wants to play. An exceptional football player for sure. Good luck in the future young man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
