A Season-Best Performance from Shiloh Peckham Leads Cayuga over Carlisle
Cayuga was led to victory by Shiloh Peckham, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Peckham rushed for 213 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
For the year, Peckham has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 68.5 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 42.83 rushing yards per game.
