Darius Akal is making a smooth transition from receiver to running back with the Harlan Green Dragons this season, running for over 200 yards thus far as Harlan has opened the season with two wins. Akal ran for 99 yards on only eight carries Friday as the Green Dragons downed East Ridge 22-16. He earned the honor as the Kellie Wilson Law Office Player of the Week in the process as he scored on a 56-yard run in the second quarter before leaving with an injury. Akal ran for 142 yards on 15 carries in the Dragons’ season-opening 28-22 victory over Berea.
