Noah West had a monster night for Lawrence County. The senior rushed 393 yards and seven touchdowns on 45 carries. He also scored nine two-point conversions, giving him 60 total points in the game — fourth most all time in the KHSAA record books.
West also came up with the game-clinching interception in the final minute as Western Hills drove down the field to try and take the lead.
The Bulldogs rushed for 581 yards, which would be good for the 16th highest total in KHSAA history. They ended the senior season of University of Kentucky commit Wandale Robinson, who scored four times and piled up more than 400 yards of offense in the defeat.
