West Virginia HS Player Rushes For 658 Yards!!!!!

             

Okay....let's get this point out of the way.  Dude is from West Virginia.....and his last name is "McCoy".   Enter Appalachia jokes.

Now, what that there durn McCoy did was run for 658 yards and 10 TDs in a high school football game.

Paul McCoy, of Matewan High School, put up the single game rushing record in a 64-0 romp over Burch High School.  In 5 games this season, McCoy has rushed for 1,820 yards, 25 TDs and a punt return for a TD.  The 658 yards [once verified] will top the recorded high school record of 619 recorded in 1995 from a kid in Oxnard, CA.  The TD record is 12. 

Upon doing some research on Matewan High School, they have a total enrollement of 217 people.  Amazing to me, since I graduated from the largest high school in the state of North Carolina [Independence High School, who have won 97 straight football games and 6 straight state championships].
