Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Lake Dallas). They simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat the Community Braves 56-8. The contest was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 35-8.

Bryce Thurman had a dynamite game, rushing for 144 yards and one TD on only ten carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 54 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. Kevin Ohaeri was another key player, rushing for 96 yards and one touchdown on only 11 carries.

Lake Dallas' run defense was locked in: Community could only muster 2.5 yards per carry. The team can thank Ryan Young for the heroic effort on defense: he. Lake Dallas' run defense has been on the up-and-up: they allowed 4.83 yards per carry earlier this season, but they've only allowed 4.53 on average over their last three games.

Lake Dallas' win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-2. The home victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 41.8 points over those games. As for Community, their loss dropped their record down to 1-4.
