Neither rain nor wind is keeping Dutch Fork from accomplishing its historic goal Friday at Benedict College.

The Silver Foxes own a 28-6 lead over TL Hanna in the Class 5A final. Quarterback Will Taylor and running back Jarvis Green each rushed for 2 touchdowns as Dutch Fork amassed 326 yards in its quest for a state-record 5th straight title.

The Silver Foxes opened the game with a 4-play, 69-yard scoring drive. It started with a long run by Green and he ended it with a 11-yard touchdown run.

TL Hanna answered with a scoring drive to get within 7-6. A 59-yard run by DJ Brownlee set up a 1st and goal at the 10-yard line.

On 3rd and goal, the Silver Foxes forced a fumble and had 2 attempts at making the recovery. After momentarily having possession on the 2nd recovery, Dutch Fork lost the football and TL Hanna regained the football at the 9-yard line.

Kabrail Morrison scored on a 1-yard run, but the PAT failed.

Dutch Fork’s next possession opened with a 57-yard reception by Devin Hyatt. On the play, Hyatt suffered an injury and was seen wearing a sling on his right arm.

Dutch Fork was penalized 3 straight times, but Taylor scored on a 21-yard run to make it 14-6 in the 1st quarter.

With 21 seconds left in the 1st quarter, Green scored from 8 yards to extend the lead to 21-6. He finished the 1st half with 103 rushing yards. 

The lone score of the 2nd quarter came with 3:24 left on a 4-yard touchdown run by Taylor. He has 147 yards on 6-8 passing and 89 rushing yards. 

TL Hanna was held to 127 total yards, all rushing. 

A win not only sends the Silver Foxes into the state record books for consecutive titles, but also extend its playoff win streak to 24, its unbeaten streak to 50 and winning streak against Palmetto State teams to 49.
