South Stanly football junior Jasiah Holt is Athlete of the Week.
Last year as a sophomore, Holt was the leading punt returner in the Yadkin Valley Conference as well as the No. 3 receiver in the league. This year, he’s stepped things up. He leads the Yadkin in receiving and is No. 6 in North Carolina 1A, averaging 94 yards a game, up 30 from last season. He also is the league-leading scorer, with 38 points on six touchdowns and a conversion.
In a win over Wheatmore last week, Holt had five catches for 108 yards and a pair of touchdowns, including a 60-yarder. He also returned a punt 40 yards and made a tackle on defense, where he plays safety.
