part of a dual Kennedale threat …

With 3 games remaining in the regular season, Wadley is on track to break the 2,000 yard mark with his current average of 241 yards per game. But, he is just part of a dual threat at running back that Kennedale has this year. Dailyn Wells (Sr), who sat out two games with injury, has piled up 762 yards on 52 carries for a whopping 14.7 yards per carry. He has recorded 8 touchdowns.

For Kennedale?s high powered offense, it is not the old ?3 yards and a cloud of dust? game. Most of the Wildcat?s running backs more than double that figure with QB Kaiser McGlothen (Sr) at 6.8 yards per, Cody Gillespie (Jr) 7.9, Jaden Knowles (Soph) 8.8 and Darren Hull (Jr) at 6.2.

they move the mountains and clear the field …

 

It says a lot about the quality of the Kennedale back field but it says just as much about the front line. The grunts, down in the trench, who get to watch the backs fly down field after they have moved mountains.

 

This year?s front line includes Senior Jonathan Zielinski (T), Sophomore Brett Bostad (G), Junior Nic Stroud (G), Senior Matt Naugle (C ), Sophomore Andrew Flanagan (G), Sophomore Isaiah Butler (T) and Junior Tyler Alphin (TE)
