Evans Posts Huge Game in 70-27 Win
Susquehanna Township picked up their fourth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Td Evans. Evans did his part (and then some), throwing for 297 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75.9% of his passes, and also punching in a touchdown on the ground for the 'W'.
On the year, Evans has thrown 21 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 257.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 6.63 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 17.38 rushing yards.

Keegan Barrick Delivers Best Effort of Season
