Bruce Comes Up Short Despite Huge Game from Underclassman Raquan Mccuiston
While Bruce couldn't topple Myrtle on Friday, it's impossible to ignore the impact made by underclassman Raquan McCuiston. McCuiston was unstoppable, rushing for 120 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Bruce dropped their record down to 1-5 with the defeat, which was their fourth straight on the road dating back to last season. McCuiston and Bruce will be playing in front of their home fans against Hatley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
