Irish Roundup: Friday Night Lights edition, Part III
I’ve already recapped how our current group of ‘08 commitments did in this week’s HS football games (see here and here), but here’s a rundown of how the major uncommitted prospects ND has been seeking did this week (I couldn’t find anything on Ryan Williams - leave it in the comments if you know anything):
- Despite sitting out most of the second half with cramps, Carlton Thomas - who arrived at ND on Saturday for an official visit (a sighting was reported here) - had 285 yards rushing, including a 98-yard TD, as his Frostproof team defeated Victory Christian, 14-0. This followed up a 228-yard effort in his season opener
- Despite not even playing past the middle of the second quarter, Michael Floyd had three receptions for 77 yards and threw a 24-yard option pass on his team’s first play from scrimmage as his Cretin-Derham Hall team overwhelmed Forest Lake, 56-7.
- Jonathan Baldwin’s Aliquippa team lost to Ambridge, 36-26.
- Jeremy Brown’s Boone team defeated Lake Mary, 10-3.
- Trevor Robinson’s Elkhorn team defeated Beatrice, 35-28 in overtime.
- And Cyrus Gray’s DeSoto team defeated Ottawa, 38-22.
