SELAH — Prosser quarterback Kellen Moore wears No. 11 on the field, but all the Selah defenders probably saw was a bull's-eye. With eight men in the box looking to stuff the run and put pressure on the Mustang QB, the Vikings accomplished only one goal Friday night at Karl Graf Stadium.

They stopped the run, but Moore went wild, completing 32 of 45 passes for 428 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions. That was more than enough offense as No. 4 Prosser rolled past Mid-Valley rival Selah 48-21.

"We knew coming in that we'd be able to throw the ball," said Kellen Moore, whose 428 yards gave him the third best passing game in Valley history. He missed Andrew Thomas' Prosser school record by six yards.

"We knew they'd be up on the line and playing us man to man outside since they were trying to get to me."

The game plan kept the Vikings
(4-3 overall, 1-2 in league) in the contest for a little while. Prosser running back Ivan Merino finished with only
51 yards on 16 rushes — although he did punch in a 1-yard run to give his team a 14-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Selah rallied with a 58-yard pass from Kyle Washut to Jake Zeutenhorst for its first score. Then a muffed fair catch on a punt helped the Vikings score again on a 4-yard pass from Washut to running back Rowan Ringer.

That tied the score at 14-14 with 1:35 seconds remaining in the first half — way too much time for Moore.

He marched Prosser (6-1, 4-0) from its own 39 yard line on six plays, capping the drive with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Danny Lochrie for a
21-14 halftime lead. The drive started with 1:28 left on the clock and left Selah with 21 seconds.

The 2-minute offense didn't stop for the Mustangs in the second half. They scored four straight touchdowns — three of them on Moore passes — to put the game out of reach. The Vikings, however, kept battling with a 74-yard touchdown pass from backup quarterback Britton Goodwin to Cameron Eaton in the waning moments.

"This Selah team is good," Prosser coach Tom Moore said. "They have tough players and they're good up front and they have a strong run game. It was just a numbers game. They had too many in the box and we had to keep throwing.

"I went to college and I can do math. If you have only six blockers and they're going to send seven to eight guys each time, you just can't run it."

The Mustang receivers enjoyed Kellen Moore's strong day. Eight different players caught passes with Lochrie and Cody Bruns leading the way with 123 and 113 yards, respectively. Bruns and Serg Torres caught two touchdowns each.

"We tried to put pressure on them and we had pretty good coverage," Selah coach Jeff Jamieson said. "We just didn't make plays when they were there and they of course are very athletic."
