Moore's record rushing mark leads Cavs to win over W Caldwell

Gamewell- EB senior Josh Moore has taken his licks and bumps to get up in the ranks of some of the great past Cavalier backs.

The single-game rushing record held for 20 years by Dusty Powell (270 vs. West Caldwell, 1999) is now in Moore's possession rushing for 271 yards and four touchdowns in a 35-12 road victory at West Caldwell.

"All glory goes to God (for this win and accomplishment)," said Moore, averaging 150.6 yards per game with 13 touchdowns. "(This win) is good momentum to build off of for our upcoming game with West Iredell."

Moore's four touchdown runs went for 1, 32, 22, and 12 yards while he had four rushes that went for more than 20 yards.

Brett Childers also added a touchdown run for the Cavaliers (2-3, 1-0 NWFAC 2A) on a five-yard run to complete EB's second offensive drive.

"Very excited about this win, I just want to give God the glory," said Childers, also playing couple QB snaps and gaining a few tackles on defense. "This is a great way to start the conference, it's time to learn and prepare for next week."

Cavaliers quarterback Seth Pruitt was held to 26 passing yards on 4 of 7 completions and added 18 rushing yards on two keepers.

Luke Coble (2-14) and Childers (2-12) were the leading receivers for EB.

Raelen Lo (TFL), Michael Magni (sack), Dawson Langley (sack), Elijah Hess, George Mackay, and Noah Rooks made multiple stops on defense.

East Burke is back home next Friday hosting West Iredell for Homecoming.
