Sophomore gets 4th straight 200+ rushing game

[time2punt]

Cissell ended his string of 200 yard rushing games last night. He rushed 9 times for 191 yards and 3 TD's in the first half vs. Atherton boosting his average to 9.5 yards per carry for the season. Just to show what type of kid he is, on his last carry of the game, he went 84 yards and stepped out of bounds at the two yard line in an effort to let a senior RB that doesn't play much get a TD. The officials however gave him the TD. I guess they couldn't believe a kid all alone would go out of bounds before scoring.

 

BTW - Last winter, he was benching 300, powercleaning 250 and deadlifting 500

 

Only other sport is track. While in middle school finished #2 in 100 at middle school state track meet.

I have lifted my whole life and those numbers are next to impossible for his size. Even if he could lift that kind of weight, someone should stop him before he gets hurt.

Have you ever been to a high school powerlifting meet?? Many other kids his size are lifting that much or more.

That's great hopefully he can keep this pace up.

Rockcastle has a sophmore that can match him on his bech and his deadlift and blow him away on the powercling. As far as the weight he weighs some less than him.

Big game for Cissell this week vs. Bullitt East -- if he can rush close to his average, Eagles win and finish 2nd or 3rd in district.

Great games for this young man...I just wonder what sophomore Josh Conner of HHS stats would be if he was featured. He's had a few near or plus 200 yard games while splitting the carries with senior Jordan Kremer. (who also was plus or near 200). Maybe these 2 sophs will battle for POY in '08 !!

[time2punt]

Can't forget about the Bacon kid at Ft. Knox as well. He is putting up huge numbers w/o a lot of help judging from their record.

What is N. Bullitt's O line like this year. It is Senior dominated. They are the one's doing all the dirty work. For any back to do a great job then the O line must do a great job first.

[time2punt]

Good line doing a great job. 4 of the 5 will be back next year to lead Cissell again. In fact, North loses only 4 seniors that start.

[Neers 44]

Congatulations, can't wait to see what he can do as he continues to get stronger.

[time2punt]

Cissell closed out the regular season rushing 24 times for 166 yds and 1 TD in North's 30-12 defeat of Bullitt East. Cissell now has 2,046 yards rushing thru 10 games.

This is great! Congrats to Cissell. Continue the hard work in the classroom and keep hitting that weight room!

[time2punt]

Thanks for the kind words of support. Knowing this kid, there is no doubt he will continue his hard work in both areas.
