A Season-Best Performance from Ian Dempsey Leads Triad over Civic Memorial
On Friday, Triad got the W thanks in part to Ian Dempsey playing the best football he has all season. Dempsey picked up 73 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 60 yards.
If the past is any indication, Dempsey could be in store for another big game when he takes on Collinsville on Friday. When Dempsey last faced the Kahoks back in October of 2023, he picked up 165 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
