Mustang running back continues to put up big numbers

East Lincoln's Marcus "Bubba" McDowell had a big game Friday night against Southern Piedmont 1A/2A rivals North Lincoln.

The senior running back rushed for 237 yards and five touchdowns on 15 carries in the Mustangs' 47-7 win.

McDowell is averaging 9.78 yards per carry this season, already surpassing the 1,000-yard mark and scoring 19 touchdowns on the ground. He's also caught nine passes for 316 yards - an average of 35 yards per catch - and five touchdowns.

The explosive, speedy McDowell and East Lincoln (4-2, 2-0) will travel to archival Lincolnton (5-1, 2-0) Friday with first place in the SPC at stake.
