Ja'Quan Thomas did all he could to make sure that William Floyd would be headed to County Finals.
Floyd beat Sachem North 35-14 this weekend to secure their spot in the Suffolk Division 1 finals. Thomas was electric as always.
Thomas carried the ball 30 times for over 230 yards and three touchdowns on the day. Defensive coordinators have been designing game plans all year to try and stop the dynamic running back, and none have had success. Thomas has over 2,100 yards and 29 TDs on the season.
He now has 9 total touchdowns in the past two weeks alone and he is like trying to stop a freight train. He wasn't alone on the offensive side of the ball as QB AJ Cannet threw for over 100 yards and had two passing touchdowns.
The defense was led by Jayden Johnson and Jack Rivera, who each had 9 tackles.
William Floyd will face the #3 seed Ward Melville in the county final this Saturday at Stony Brook University. This will be a rematch of the only blemish on Floyd's record this season. When they played back in early October Ward Melville turned away Floyd’s two-point attempt with just seconds to play and won 21-20.
