Top Players: Lake Travis vs East Central

Lake Travis walked away with a dominant win over East Central. The Cavaliers defeated the Hornets 56-14 last Friday. The offense was electric but the defense made sure to keep away any chance of a comeback, especially early on. The momentum was clearly in the direction of Lake Travis, and these are the players that made that happen. 1. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="121941" first="Bo" last="Edmundson"] (JR-QB) - Lake Travis High School (Austin, TX)</strong> Stats: 279 passing yards, 4 passing touchdowns Edmundson was an unstoppable force all game and made very few mistakes. He and senior wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id="60689" first="Caleb" last="Burton"] had a great connection all game, which is what led to such a massive victory for the Cavaliers. This dynamic duo can take the team to possibly a state title. 2. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="60689" first="Caleb" last="Burton"] (SR-WR) - Lake Travis High School (Austin, TX)</strong> Stats: 4 receptions, 112 receiving yards, 3 receiving touchdowns On the receiving end, Burton was as close to perfect as one can be. Almost all of his receptions were touchdowns, and he picked up massive amounts of yards. He averaged 28 yards per reception. The East Central defense just had no way of stopping the duo of Edmundson and Burton. 3. <strong>Max Linhoff (SR-DL) - Lake Travis High School (Austin, TX)</strong> Stats: 8 total tackles, 5 tackles for a loss, 3 sacks On the defense side of the ball, Linhoff was a terror for the East Central offense. Most defensive linemen get one sack in a game, maybe two, but Linhoff walked away with three. If this trend for Linhoff continues, he could be one of the many keys for Lake Travis to get a state title this season. 4. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="133198" first="Chernet" last="Estes"] (SR-WR) - Lake Travis High School (Austin, TX)</strong> Stats: 6 receptions, 91 receiving yards, 1 receiving touchdown Although not putting up the same numbers as Burton, Estes also had a big game against East Central. Putting up 15.2 yards per reception, Estes was a workhorse and actually had more receptions than Burton. He also had one of the longest receptions in the game with 43 yards. Overall, it seems Edmundson has quite the arsenal of targets at his disposal.
