Heath Thompson's Big Game Leads Westview over Beaverton
Heath Thompson was a major factor in Westview's victory over Beaverton on Friday. Thompson did his part (and then some), rushing for 92 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries for the 'W'.
Unfortunately for Beaverton, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Thompson. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Thompson saw the Beavers), he rushed for 154 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.3 yards per carry.
