It's playoff time, and Archbishop Murphy had no trouble coming through when it counted. They breezed past the Olympic Trojans to the tune of 45-13 on Saturday. Fans of the Wildcats have seen this all before: every one of the games they've played this season has ended in a blowout of 20+ points.
Isaiah Smith had another great game (as he tends to do), rushing for 130 yards and four TDs on only 11 carries. Ryder Sandstrom also deserves some recognition as he rushed for his first rushing yards of the season.
Archbishop Murphy's run defense was locked in: Olympic could only muster 3.5 yards per carry. The Wildcats didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged eight.
When it comes to explaining why Olympic lost, don't look at Chace Webster. Despite the final result, he rushed for 169 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Webster is crushing it when it comes to rushing yards: he's rushed for at least 117 every time he's taken the field this season.
