Roscommon's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Landon Mann
Roscommon's six-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Landon Mann. Mann turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 142 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, while also throwing for 196 yards and three touchdowns.
This season, Mann has thrown 6 touchdowns while averaging 77.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 47.33 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 90.17 rushing yards.
