Tuff Street Crosses Big Stat Threshold
LaSalle was led to victory by Tuff Street, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Street rushed for 185 yards and five touchdowns on only 15 carries, and also threw for 20 yards and a touchdown. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (108.7).
