A Season-Best Effort from Ryan Dye Leads Havana over Monmouth United

Dye rushed for 103 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also picked up 54 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest reception was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.

Kaden Olson Dazzles in Havana Win
Another Havana player making an appearance on this list is Kaden Olson. He threw for 175 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 49 yards. He didn't just play on offense: he also made two total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended three passes in addition to snagging an interception.
This year, Olson has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 162.1 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 5.5 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 36.63 rushing yards.
