Centralia was able to reach 50 points again on Friday.

The Panthers scored a season-high 52 points two weeks prior against Clark County and had another big offensive night at home in a 50-13 victory over Clarence Cannon Conference foe Macon (2-3, 1-1 CCC).

Head coach Tyler Forsee said Class 2 No. 9 Centralia (4-1, 2-1 CCC) was able to do anything it wanted as it finished with 405 rushing yards spread among 12 different players. Centralia had a 30-0 lead after the first quarter.

“Offensively, our offensive line did such a great job of opening holes,” Forsee said. “It was one of those things where we could do whatever we wanted to do. It’s nice when it works out that way.”

Peyson Bryson ran for 121 yards and one touchdown on six carries, Ethan Ross ran for 71 yards and one touchdown on two carries and Rex Bryson had 61 yards and two touchdowns on five carries. Oliver Bohlmeyer had a rushing touchdown along with 51 yards on three carries and also had a 76-yard kick return touchdown.

On defense, Carson Hill and Louis Suddarth each led with six tackles and Dax Deckerd and Ashton Price each had five tackles. Forsee said Macon had some injuries, including to its quarterback.

“I didn’t know if he was going to play or not,” Forsee said. “We had to go against two different types of offense – one that was very run-heavy like they did tonight with him or one where they throw the ball because he is a very good player.”

Centralia plays at conference foe Highland (0-5, 0-2 CCC) at 7 p.m. Friday and hopes to make it two straight wins. The Panthers were glad to bounce back after a four-point loss at Monroe City the previous week.

“Our kids were down on Monday (after Monroe City),” Forsee said. “It was a tough loss, and it hurt. I’m very pleased by how they rebounded and bounced back. I have very competitive kids. If we laid a checkerboard out there, they would be ready to play that, too.”
