Anaconda's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Travis Dye
Thanks in part to Travis Dye, Anaconda said goodbye to their seven-game losing streak dating back to last season. On Friday Dye rushed for 69 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, and also threw for 90 yards and a touchdown while completing 85.7% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up 0.5 sacks and making five total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Anaconda's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-5. Dye and Anaconda are taking a road trip to square off against Loyola-Sacred Heart at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

While Thompson Falls might've come up empty on Friday, Bryson Lecoure wasn't going down without a fight. Lecoure was dynamite, throwing for 101 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 61 yards on only eight carries. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 56 yards.
