<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>When you look at a scoreboard that reads A.C. Flora 72, Brookland-Cayce 43 at the end of the night, you figure there are plenty of offensive players to discuss and very limited defensive personnel that stands out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>That's partially true.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A.C. Flora used the three-headed monster that has been QB <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='202733' first='Carew' last='Bates']</strong>, RB <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='202726' first='Markel' last='Townsend']</strong> and WR <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='202725' first='Chris' last='Lofton']</strong> to improve to 3-0 on the season. None of those three disappointed against the Bearcats.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bates had probably his best game since transitioning to the quarterback spot. The senior completed 11-of-12 passes for 179 yards and touchdowns of 53 and 11 yards to Lofton, 24 yards to Aiden Mosely and 23 yards to [player_tooltip player_id='409839' first='Jack' last='Purdy']. His only incompletion came early in the first quarter. Bates also ran for 46 yards and a 4-yard score.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>“He's a dude,” first-year head coach Ken Floyd said of Bates. “He's having a heck of a season. Every week, he gets better and better. But he works so hard. He demands to be good. The guy's really good so I'm excited he's on my team.”</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lofton finished with four receptions for 101 yards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Townsend has been good for three years now on the varsity level and isn't slowing down. He finished with 198 yards on 21 carries with scoring runs of 1, 1 and 15 yards. Townsend gets behind the huge offensive line of <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='340713' first='Ben' last='Holmes']</strong>, <strong>Kendarious Kinard</strong> and <strong>Alexander Koutrakos </strong>and picks his holes wisely. He has unbelievable balance and rarely goes down on first contact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brookland-Cayce had its share of standouts. <strong>De'Shawn Washington </strong>was a workhorse in the backfield with 193 yards on 28 carries. He ran physical and was never knocked backwards, always falling forward for the extra yard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='199432' first='Tanner' last='Staton']</strong> threw for 101 yards and a score and rushed for 51 yards and a 30-yard touchdown.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Naahzeikiel Mays </strong>played both ways and added 93 yards rushing and touchdowns of 6 and 40 yards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Bearcats have a big, physical offensive line as well. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1359229' first='Trequan' last='Singleton']</strong>, <strong>Kamden Sox</strong>, <strong>Jacory Jones</strong>, and <strong>Jared Holmes</strong> will make things tough on Class 3A defenses. All four are underclassmen.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Defensively, <strong>Eric McClain</strong> returned a fumble for a score for the Falcons. Senior <strong>Andre Thomas</strong>, junior <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='202750' first='Braxton' last='Burton']</strong> and senior <strong>Mason Little</strong> played well in spurts.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

When you look at a scoreboard that reads A.C. Flora 72, Brookland-Cayce 43 at the end of the night, you figure there are plenty of offensive players to discuss and very limited defensive personnel that stands out.
