Rogers couldn't be stopped Friday night against Connersville.

(Aurora, Ind.) - It was a Homecoming Knight to remember.

Not only did South Dearborn defeat Connersville 55-8 to improve to 3-1 on the season (1-0 in EIAC 4A Division), but it was a record-breaking night as well.

Senior running back CJ Rogers rushed 13 times for 326 yards, setting the South Dearborn single-game record for most rushing yards.

Rogers averaged 25.1 yards per carry on his way to five touchdown scores.

His longest rush of the night was a 71-yard touchdown in the second quarter.
