YODER – Chase Lovercheck broke the Southeast single-game rushing record with 288 yards on the ground, guiding the Cyclones to a 48-32 Homecoming win Friday over Bayard, Neb.
Lovercheck got things started early, scoring on a 24-yard touchdown in the first quarter. The Tigers rebounded to score three minutes later. Southeast’s Brady Fullmer found the end zone with 0:45 left in the first, scoring on a 6-yard touchdown run. Bayard scored twice in the second quarter, including a 95-yard touchdown pass. Heading into halftime, the Cyclones trailed 18-14.
“If you have a slow second quarter, they come back and make a big game out of it,” Lovercheck said. “It makes you more motivated later in the game in the second half to pour it on.”
The third quarter proved to be the difference, with the Cyclones racking up 34 points, while allowing zero. Fullmer capped off the opening drive after the break with a 1-yard touchdown. Lovercheck again ripped off a big run, scoring on a 37-yard play less than three minutes after Fullmer’s score.
Dawson Beck got in on the scoring action, finding pay dirt on a 36-yard run. Lovercheck continued his big night, cashing in for two more scores to close out the third frame, scoring from 66 and 47 yards out.
