A Pennsylvania high school football game ended with a ridiculous score and running back Journey Brown went off! 

Pittsburgh sports director Bob Pompeani out of KDKA TV reported some incredibly astounding stats coming out of the Meadville High School vs. DuBois High School game in Pennsylvania.

First, the 107-90 final score would seem better suited to a basketball game. Or, a football game during which neither defense showed up.


Second, 720 yards? In a single game? Yes. Meadville Bulldogs junior running back Journey Brown ran for over 700 yards, after his breakout 2014 season in which he rushed for 1,651 yards. That means in a single game the 5’11”, 180-lb back rushed for nearly half of his 2014 total yardage.  His 10 touchdown total in Friday’s game is also nearly half of his 22-touchdown total for the entire 2014 season.

Last week in Meadville’s season opener against Fairview, Journey Brown rushed for 109 yards on 10 carries and had two touchdowns.

According to MaxPreps.com, Journey Brown is ranked 3,913 nationally and 165 in the state of Pennsylvania. Brown’s performance tonight was so exceptional that he was only 34 yards shy of the most yards in a game by a single high school player.
