Scoville rushed for 197 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 12.3 yards per carry, and also picked up 66 receiving yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.all of that, receiving production came thanks to one massive catch
Scoville is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Paxton on Friday. Scoville rushed for 130 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.

His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 151 rushing yards dating back to last season.
