Chase Ferrell Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Cypress Falls got the W thanks in part to Chase Ferrell playing the best football he has all season. Ferrell rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 70 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 80 yards.
The victory (which was Cypress Falls' fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Ferrell will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Stratford on Friday.
