Pike’s offense got yards in big chunks consistently throughout the first half, amassing 259 yards against a normally strong Carmel defense, but the Greyhounds got their motor running in the second half as they got their running attack into […]
By CLIFF BRUNT ISL Editor You can add toughness to Cathedral receiver Terry McLaurin’s list of game-changing qualities. The Ohio State commitment, known for his speed and exceptional hands, was a hard-nosed runner against Arsenal Tech.
