BIG SCHOOL FOOTBALL - Moore isn't enough for Prosser

YAKIMA HERALD-REPUBLIC PROSSER - This time around, Prosser wasn't as fortunate against Class 2A power Pullman.

Kellen Moore threw for 309 yards and four touchdowns, but it still wasn't enough as Pullman's J.C. Sherritt ran for 178 yards in leading the Greyhounds to a 35-28 victory in the non-league game Friday night.

Last season, Prosser escaped with a 26-23 overtime victory at Pullman.

This time, Pullman pulled off the road victory behind Sherritt, who also scored twice.

Quarterback J.T. Levenseller couldn't match Moore's production, throwing for just 75 yards, but he did throw two touchdowns.

After Pullman built a 14-0 lead in the second quarter, the teams traded scores the rest of the way, with Michael Thomas' 1-yard run in the fourth quarter proving to be the difference, giving Pullman a 35-21 lead.

Moore was 26 of 44, but Pullman shut down Prosser's ground game, limiting Ivan Merino to just 28 yards on 18 carries. As a team, the Mustangs had minus-5 net yards rushing.
