Not sure Preacher. Lexington Catholic held Rockcastle County to -29 yards rushing which is impressive, but gave up over 200 yards passing. I'm assuming with the stats as close as they are that they forced a lot of turnovers and got touchdowns from special teams and defense. Maybe a Catholic fan can shed some light.

First, very sorry to hear about the team doctor. Prayers to the family.

There was a punt return for a TD in the 2nd quarter.

Also, the last three 'drives' were 40 yards (1 play - pass to Letton), 1 yard (1 play after interception) and 14 yards (1 play after turnover on downs inside own redzone). Total time: 0:22 seconds.

RC ran out of gas - but kept playing and did not just want to punt away late in the game.

There longest run was 13 yards. Most were 3 yards or less. Only 20 total runs. The Knights had 13 TFLs for 88 yards of loss vs. 63 yards gained for the net -25. 6 of the TFLs were sacks. So the other 7 were running plays behind tackled behind the line. I had heard that RC has a good lineman go down the week before so that may have hurt them in the running game. But they favored the pass all season anyway as well.

Russell Co. looks a lot like Boyle in the running game it appears. So it will be a challenge for the Knights.
