Todd Robinson isn’t planning to play quarterback or running back in college, but he sure looks like a star at both in a Valdosta uniform.
Robinson, a senior committed to Georgia as a defensive back, was 21-of-27 passing for 269 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 132 yards and four touchdowns in a 56-37 victory over fourth-ranked Camden County last week.
In six games, all victories, Robinson has passed for a career-high 1,219 yards, putting him at 3,335 for his career. In the Camden game, he surpassed 2,000 yards rushing for his career (2,007). Valdosta, now ranked No. 4 in Class 6A, has its highest ranking in the highest classification since 2014.
