Mr. Peter Saliaz of Mullin 1992-1995 is reported to have a total of 10480 career rushing yards. If so, Mr. Lance Morris needs 292 to tie the best ever in Six-Man yardage wise.
Here are numbers I believe to be reliable.
Pete Saliaz (Six-Man) verified career total is 10468, 12 shy of what I reported earlier in this thread.
The verified number for Lance Morris (Six-Man) now stand at 10224 career yards. That leaves him short of Petey 244 yards to tie.
The break down on the career of Lance is as follows:
Freshman 159 carries 2551 yards 26 TDs
Sophomore 240 carries 3267 yards 56 TDs
Junior 225 carries 3263 yards 53 TDs
Current 88 carries 1143 yards 16 TDs
Totals 712 carries 10224 yards 151 TDs.
Ken Hall from Sugarland 1950-53 (Eleven-Man) gained 11232 yards. Lance would need 1008 to tie what has long been thought to be an unbreakable record.
The Ira Bulldogs travel to Paducah to take on the Dragons on Friday night October 5th at 7:30 PM.
Thank you to Leman Saunders and Coach Goodwin for working to establish these official numbers on Petey and Lance.
