Sandhill Thedford High School (Dunning, Neb.) has been on the verge of a championship multiple times this decade. In both 2020 and 2021, the Knights reached the championship game but failed to grab the title.<\/p>\n
This past Monday, junior quarterback Kyle Cox decided he would not let that happen again.<\/p>\n
Cox rushed the ball a state record 65 times, recording 486 yards and six touchdowns to help the Knights cruise to a 50-12 win, according to the local KSNB station<\/a>. In an interview with the outlet, he praised his offensive line:<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got the best O-line in the state,” he said. “They\u2019re dogs, pancaking kids every play. It was amazing … I don\u2019t think it\u2019s set in yet, honestly. I don\u2019t know, it\u2019s crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n Check out KSNB for highlights from the game.
