Some records...

 

-The 56 points Garrard County scored is the 11th most in school history.

 

-The 65 points allowed ties for the third most in school history.

 

-The 65 points allowed is the second most ever allowed in a home game, behind the 73 allowed in the season finale with Boyle County in 2000

 

-The 121 total points scored by both teams set the school record for most combined points in a game and marked only the second time ever more than 100 points were scored in a game.

Looks like Leonard Macon took over this game in the 2nd half.

 

Chris Thomas is a stud but if Leonard Macon turns into a consistent stud, then this could be a dangerous football team.

It was like a holiday basketball tournament! Pulaski and Taylor will meet in the final; Garrard and South will have to settle for the third place game!:lol:

Can anyone say shoot out! WOW!!!!

643 yards of offense and you lose!

Leonard Macon was all over Garrard County!

Garrard lost the game on special teams. If you take away the two touchdowns the Leonard Macon returned on kick returns then Garrard wins 56-51. Other than those two plays the game was about as even as it could get. Both offenses were dominate and defense was just out there for both. Garrard has to control the special teams game in order to win in districts.

Garrard also again caught a tough break with the officials. Taylor fumbeld the snap and Garrard recovered. However, a false whistle by the head official gave the ball back to Taylor, and they scored on the next play going up by one touchdown. I hate to say it was a game changing call but Garrard was getting hot and Taylor was having trouble driving the ball late. The score that followed made it hard for Garrard to come back.

Sure this wasnt a high school basketball score??? lol

Do they score that many points in high school basketball?:laugh:

Good win for Taylor Co.
