Theodis Fields' Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Cypress Lakes came up short on Thursday despite Theodis Fields delivering his best game to date. Fields rushed for 149 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 72 yards.
On the season, Fields has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 42.6 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 25.57 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 33.00
On Thursday, Cypress Ranch got the W thanks in part to Owen Cossette playing the best football he has all season. Cossette threw for 131 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 108 yards on only seven carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Cossette is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Cypress Woods on Friday. When Cossette last faced the Wildcats back in September of 2023, he threw for 479 yards and eight touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown.
