FLORENCE — Wilkinson County Christian Academy senior quarterback Jacob Sessions threw for 152 yards, ran for another 101 yards, and accounted for four total touchdowns as the Rams cruised to a 46-14 road win over the Discovery Christian School Lions last Friday night.

Sessions had touchdown runs of 57 yards with 4:10 left in the first quarter go give WCCA an 8-0 lead and 44 yards nearly midway through the third quarter that gave the Rams a 46-6 lead. Even though he went 3-for-7 passing, two of those completions went for long touchdowns.

The first was a 73-yarder to Easton Buteaux at the 3:25 mark of the first quarter and just 14 seconds after Trent Poe scored on a 54-yard run for Discovery Christian that made it an 8-6 game.
