Cannon played one year with MSD and had a record-setting year, setting the single-season rushing record for the Eagles. He passed Orville Reynolds for the record after rushing for 1,594 yards and 15 touchdowns. He also added 119 receiving yards while MSD went 7-4 in the regular season and defeated Santaluces High School in the postseason for the team’s first win since 2007.
Westminster is coming off a year where they went 7-3 and will open the season in September at Grove City in Pennsylvania.
