Running wild

Senior running back Trevor Boyk finished the year with a net gain of 1,171 yards on the ground, according to the official stats posted on the Web site for Northwest Schools.

This marked the third-straight season that a Jackson Northwest running back has gained more than 1,000 yards.

In 2007, David Klingaman ran for 1,508 yards on 174 carries for an average of 8.7 yards per carry.

In 2006, No. 9 Johnson (the stat sheet doesn't include a first name) ran for 1,369 yards on 238 carries for an average of 5.8 yards per carry.

Boyk's 1,171 yards came on 190 rushing attempts, giving him a 6.2-yard-per-carry average.
