Dom Monhollon Makes Every Touch Count for Silver Lake

Silver Lake's Dom Monhollon made the most of his opportunities Friday night, putting up impressive numbers in limited action as the Eagles rolled to a 76-8 victory over Humboldt in the regional round of the Class 2A playoffs.

Monhollon needed just four carries to rack up 89 rushing yards and two touchdowns, adding another standout performance to what has been a remarkable season for the No. 2-ranked Eagles.

Through the season, Monhollon has accumulated 795 rushing yards on an impressive nine yards per carry, along with 21 rushing touchdowns. He's also been a contributor in the passing game, hauling in eight receptions for 123 yards and two touchdowns. On special teams, he's added two punt-return touchdowns, bringing his season total to an incredible 25 touchdowns.

His consistency has been just as impressive as his production. Monhollon has surpassed 100 rushing yards in four games this season, recorded at least three touchdowns in six games, and scored at least twice in every game he's played.

Perhaps the most impressive part of his season is that those numbers have often come in limited playing time. With Silver Lake frequently building commanding leads, Monhollon has regularly seen his night come to an end after the first half.

Even with fewer opportunities than many other standout players, Monhollon continues to make every touch count. His explosiveness, consistency and ability to find the end zone have made him a key weapon in Silver Lake's dominant season and an easy choice for Athlete of the Week.
