Senior year of my high school football career - if it can be called that - I lined up on the O Line as the left tight end. We were a running team, only throwing the ball to running backs who had scampered out the the left or right flank for a screen pass. Something quarterback Will Totten, of McKenzie High School (Ore.), did not do.
What Totten did do, however, was set a new football record. I say new football record because it has never been done on any level before he did it. So what did he do?
Totten threw for 553 yards with 11 touchdowns. He also added 117 on the ground with a score. Add it all together and it's a 670 yard, 12 touchdown day for the kid.
Though the division Totten and his teammates play in is of the 8-man team variety, allowing for more scoring - the final score was McKenzie 88, Lowell (Ore.) 80 - it's still a pretty impressive feat.

These following fellas are the Area Leaders From Week 8 with two state records and one national record being set at new heights.
QB:
1. Brandon Pechloff, Montini: 264 yds, 4 tds
2. Mike Perish, Marist (6-2): 249 yds, 4 tds
3. Tommy Rees, Lake Forest (3-5): 245 yds, td
4. Robert Galik, St. Rita (7-1): 234 yds, 2 tds
5. Jimmy Garoppolo, Rolling Meadows (5-2): 219 yds, 2 tds; 120 yds rushing, td
RB:
1. Matt Perez, Maine South (8-0): 352 yards, 4 td
2. Jalen Williams, Larkin (6-2): 248 yards, 3 tds
3. Josh Ferguson, Joliet Catholic (6-2): 237 yards, td
4. Rashaan Fox , Mather (6-2): 231 yds, 3 tds
5. Brock Douglas, Plainfield Central (4-4): 230 yards, 2 tds
WR:
1. Jahliel Thurman, Lindblom (4-4): 175 yards, 4 tds
2. Davonte Pendleton, Harlan (6-2): 175 yards, 2 tds
3. Mark McDonagh, Riverside-Brookfield (5-3): 159 yards
4. AJ Smith, North Lawndale (4-4): 155 yards
5. Ryley Bailey, Kaneland (5-3): 148 yards, td
DEFENSE:
1. Christopher Winston, Perspectives (6-2): 18 tackles, 13 sacks, 3 forced fumbles
2. Corey Thomas, Lindblom (4-4): 10 tackles, 2 sacks
3. Rashaan Fox, Mather (6-2): 10 tackles
4. Nick Mandich, Grayslake Central (?-?): 9 tackles, forced fumble
5. Ellis Gary, Perspectives (6-2): 8 tackles, 3 sacks, 2 fumble recoveries, 1 td
Before yesterday, two high school players were tied for the lead for most sacks recorded in a single game with six; Aaron Marshall of Lane did it twice in the '92 campaign and Jon Kowalshyen of Leyden did it against Willowbrook in '97.
But yesterday, October 17, 2009, Christopher Winston of Perspectives racked up a mind blowing 13 sacks. He finished the game with 18 total tackles. If you do the math, 72.2% of his tackles were sacks.
And on the other side of the ball, Riverside-Brookfield's Mark McDonagh set new state and national records for receptions in a season by ending the day with catch 144 on the year. He topped the record set by Lexington's Eric Schuler (130) in 2006.
McDonagh already has set the state record for receptions in a single game earlier this season when he pulled in 20 catches in the 64-26 blowout of Robeson in Week 3.
