After waiting patiently for the start of his senior season, future Husky quarterback Sam Huard took the field on Friday night to lead his team into battle. What resulted was a 49-14 blowout win over Tahoma that was even more lopsided that the final score would indicated.
During the first three quarters of the game, Huard marched his team up and down the field at will, finishing the night 26 of 35 for 495 yards and seven touchdowns. He didn't throw a pass in final eight minutes of the game.
Huard threw for 341 yards and five touchdowns in the first half alone, setting the tone on the first play from scrimmage which was a double-reverse throwback to senior quarterback who then found senior wide receiver Reed Shumpert for a 46-yard reception. Four plays later, Huard found Shumpert again, this time for a six-yard touchdown, putting the Lancers up 7-0 a mere 1:15 seconds into the game.
One of the things about Kennedy Catholic's offense is they like to spread the ball around and Huard did just that, hitting six different receivers including another future Husky, wideout Jabez Tinae, who had four catches for 108 yards and two scores and Arizona State signee Junior Alexander who totaled four catches for 96 yards and two more scores.
Since his first game as a freshman, Huard has been considered one of the top quarterbacks in the country. Over his first three years as the starter for the Lancers, Huard completed 61.2% of his passes for 11,741 yards with 132 touchdowns and 35 interceptions. As a junior in 2019, he led his team to an 11-1 record and a berth in the state quarterfinals by throwing for 4,168 yards with 56 touchdowns and 11 interceptions and was named to various All-State teams.
He had offers from a handful of schools following his sophomore season, but chose Washington shortly before the start of the 2018 Apple Cup.
He finished the 2021 recruiting cycle as the top-rated pro-style quarterback in the country and was a five-star prospect and finishing with a 0.9936 in the industry-generated 247Composite. Huard is expected to play two more games for Lancers and then will enroll at Washington in time for the start of spring football.
