Garlock's six TD passes highlight prep notebook

COLUMBUS – The midway point has arrived. With the conclusion of Week 5 last weekend, the 2022 high school football regular season is officially in the second half. Let's check out some of the top performances that stood out during the final week of the first half of the season with this week's OPSWA High School Football Notebook. } Getting "six" took on new meaning for Liberty-Benton's Kam Garlock and Upper Scioto Valley's Alex Sanders on Friday. Garlock, a senior quarterback completed 20 of 23 passes for 460 yards and six touchdowns in the Eagles 70-0 win over Cory-Rawson. The six TD passes broke the single-game school record Garlock set last season in a playoff game with Elmwood. L-B kicker Cason Doolittle converted 10-of-10 PAT kicks in the contest, tying him with several others for the 12th most PAT conversions in a single game. Sanders had just seven carries in USV's game with Crestline, but scored on six of those seven carries and churned out 236 yards rushing in the Rams 84-8 win. } McComb's Andrew Swisher had 17 carries for 112 yards and three touchdowns and caught three passes for 35 yards in a key Blanchard Valley Conference game against Pandora-Gilboa on Friday. Swisher was clutch late in the game. When starting quarterback Grant Dishong was injured, Swisher stepped under center, rushed for 50 yards on seven carries on a make-or-break final drive, and guided the Panthers to a game-winning TD in the final minute of their 35-28 win. } Coldwater kicker Justin Kaup had his streak of 56 consecutive extra points snapped when he kicked the first attempt against St. Henry off the goal post in a 41-7 win over the Redskins.

Locked in a defensive battle and needing a momentum changer, Reese found Davis streaking down the sideline and found his speedy receiver for the game-clinching score. The Mansfield Senior defense pitched a shutout in the second half of the win to end the Tygers' two-game losing streak. } Clear Fork piled up 459 yards of total offense in a 36-10 win over Galion.
