34
Rushes Westview’s Jordan Fisher had last season in both the quarterfinals and the final of the inaugural OSAA Class 6A Columbia Cup.
In the final, Jordan gained 409 yards, which is the most by a player in any Class 6A or 5A postseason game dating to at least 2018.
In both of his 34-carry games in the 2022 postseason, Fisher scored five touchdowns on the ground. Dating to 2018, a player has rushed for more than five touchdowns in a postseason game twice (six for both):
– Churchill’s Deonte Jones in a 49-48 Class 5A quarterfinal loss to Thurston in 2018
– Fisher in the first round of the 2021 Class 6A playoffs, in a 57-34 win over Barlow of Gresham
