Chalk up another win for DigitalSports’ top ranked team, Booker T. Washington. After a slower than usual start, the Tornadoes pulled away from Northwestern High School, one of their Miami rivals, to win 21-9.
Though Northwestern does not hold a place in DigitalSports’ Top 100, Washington expected a tough game from the Bulls, and got just that.
With both offensive and defense linemen on the bench due to injuries, along with running back Mark Walton limited to only a few carries, Washington needed the whole team to step up their game.
Senior running back Krondis Larry led the team with 144 yards and a touchdown. Larry found the endzone with only 2:57 remaining in the fourth quarter to secure the win.
In the air, Lamar Parker added on 129 receiving yards. Washington finished with 427 offensive yards.
The Tornadoes’ defense kept them in the game. Northwestern had scored 25 or more points in four of their previous five games. On Friday, however, the Bulls scored a field goal in the first quarter, and did not add to that until their six points in the fourth.
Booker T. Washington, now at 6-0, prepares for their game against Gulliver Prep. The game is on Thursday, October 17, with a 7:00p kickoff.
Key Players:
Krondis Larry- 144 rushing yards, 1 TD
Lamar Parker- 129 receiving yards
