Game notes: Castle Rock beat Ridgefield 41-7 last season, but these are two different teams this season. … After back-to-back games with less than 65 yards rushing, Ridgefield RB Dylan Young had his fourth 100-yard game last week in a win over Kalama. … Young ran for 132 yards on a season-high 27 carries …. Young has rushed for 739 yards and nine TDs this season. … Young has averaged 24 carries for 155 yards in Ridgefield’s four wins, and averaged 15-60 in the two losses. … Castle Rock is 2-0 at home this season. … Castle Rock gave up 379 rushing yards in a loss to La Center.
Columbian’s take: To have success, Ridgefield must control the line of scrimmage and get Young the ball. Given that Castle Rock struggled to stop La Center last week, it doesn’t bode well for the Rockets. PICK: Ridgefield
