Corey Catron Leads Dawg Come-back Win

From the Capital-Journal:

 With Rossville (7-0) starting quarterback Torrey Horak standing on the sideline with his left arm in a sling and the Bulldogs trailing late in the third quarter on the road to their biggest rival, the No. 1 ranked and defending Class 2A champs found out exactly what they are made of Friday night in the latest installment of the War on 24.

Behind 116 yards rushing, 34 yards passing and two fourth quarter touchdowns from backup quarterback Corey Catron, Rossville answered the Eagles third quarter comeback to leave Silver Lake (5-2) with a 24-19 victory.
