In a town like Hilmar, where football means more than most things, Isaac Sharp is at home. Sharp, a junior at Hilmar High and the Yellowjackets’ starting running back, has recently become somewhat of a local star after helping his team make an improbable Sac Joaquin Section Division VI Championship run with a combined 654 all-purpose yards and seven touchdowns over a three-game stretch – an outcome that was unthinkable after Hilmar finished the regular season with a 5-5 record. But beating the odds is nothing new for Sharp, who has shown an ability to adapt in the face of adversity throughout his life.
