By AccessWDUN Staff

SALUDA, S.C. — Rabun County scored five touchdowns in just under 12 minutes in the first half en route to a 63-7 rout of Saluda (S.C.) on Friday night.

Senior quarterback and Georgia-commit Gunner Stockton was a blistering 18-of-21 for 405 yards passing with 5 TD passes to lead a very efficient offense. The Wildcats (3-1) ran just 32 plays but scored on 9 of them and racked up 418 yards. However, they had just 13 yards rushing.

Junior receiver Jaden Gibson, who came into the game leading Class 2A in receiving, had 6 catches for 146 yards and 1 touchdown. Lang Windham had 4 catches for 65 yards and 2 TDs.

The Wildcats defense also contributed as both Cory Keller (25-yards) and  
Cesar Cruz (55-yards) returned Saluda fumbles for touchdowns on consecutive possessions to help blow the game open in the second quarter.

Rabun County next week will play its third straight non-Georgia team playing host to Pickens out of South Carolina.
