I wonder what's their classification?

They are 2-1A.

They have won 50 games in a row and have won the last 3 Class 2-1A state championships.

BTW, they reclassified down a division after the 2003 season and began their tear.

Some interesting stats:

"Braden Wilson, the team's top rusher, has 1,098 yards. On 47 carries for 23.4 yards per carry. Needless to say, the offensive line is opening gaping holes."

Those are impressive numbers no matter the competition. I would love to see them play some of the 2A teams down here.
Kind of on topic: Lakeland High School the 3 time defending 5A state champs in Florida has won 53 straight games. I'm always impressed by long winning streaks.

How do you score 72 points in a 12 minute quarter?

If the other team just ran the ball every time they should eat up 2 minutes a possession, leaving the other team at most 6 possessions (42 points +/-).

xthumbsupx for just running the ball. I don't understand the 2 point conversions though. xeyebrowx

They scored cause the other team sucks? Fine take a knee 3 times and punt.. take the ball back and do the same....

Oh wait.... you mean the offense was just going onto the field and doing there job? WOW amazing..... So its ok for this high school team to put up that many points against a defense of kids...

Maybe New England should play that team so it would be okj when they score 54 points. :p
