Setting personal accolades aside, Senior Brian Cobbs showed why he was the most versatile athlete on the field during last Friday's 40-30 victory over West Potomac. In his second career start at QB and first complete game at QB, Cobbs (SR) sacrificed a 30-game consecutive reception streak dating back to September 3, 2015. During the streak, Cobbs (SR) amassed 2,227 yards on 154 receptions and 27 touchdowns, all team records.

Entering Friday's contest against Gunston District foe West Potomac, Hayfield would field a hodgepodge defense as many starters were too banged up to play. Understanding the situation, the Hawk's wasted no time getting their plethora of offensive weapons involved, including Seniors Jevon Pailin and Travis Williams and Juniors Tim Wiggins and Rayjuon Pringle. Cobbs (SR) would guide the opening drive 66 yards on nine plays finding Pringle (JR) on a 26 yard touchdown pass. And after the Wolverines went three-and-out on their first possession, the Hawks would strike again two plays later on a 62 yard Cobbs (SR) pass to Pailin (SR) extending the lead 14-0 in the first 4:42 of the game.

The Wolverines however would not go silently, utilizing a shifty powerful running back reminiscent of former Hayfield standout Myles Ross, scoring on their next possession to make the score 14-6. Unfazed by the score, Hayfield's offense was running on all cylinders, driving 62 yards on 12 plays with Cobbs (SR) finding Sophomore Trevor Gleason for a 10 yard touchdown. Seemingly unstoppable, Cobbs (SR) would score on the Hawk's next possession to extend the lead 27-6 with 8:56 in the 2nd quarter. West Potomac would only find two more points in the first half courtesy of a Hayfield safety after being penalized for intentional grounding in their own end zone.

Both teams traded possessions to start the second half, with Hayfield finding paydirt first on a 25 yard tipped touchdown pass from Cobbs (SR) to Pringle (JR), who would finish the game with a Hayfield career high seven receptions for 120 yards and two touchdowns. Hayfield would take their 25 point 33-8 lead into the 4th quarter, where it would not stay unchanged for long. The Wolverines mounted a drive into Hawk's territory and scored on a one yard touchdown run inching the score to 33-15 with 10:47 remaining. West Potomac was able to score on their next possession, powering past two Hayfield defenders at the goal line on a 27 yard pass to make the score interesting, 33-22 with 4:45 remaining.

Fending off potential disappointment, the Hawks recovered the Wolverines onside kick at the Hayfield 44 yard line and preceded to kill 3:20 off the clock on seven straight running plays capping it with a two yard Cobbs (SR) touchdown. Cobbs (SR) would end the night 19/25 passing for 276 yards in the air, 86 yards on the ground, and six touchdowns (four passing/two rushing). The Wolverines would score one last time against back-up players to set the final score 40-30. Hayfield is now 20-2 over the past four seasons when scoring at least 35 points. This is Hayfield's first win over West Potomac since 2005, the Wolverines still lead the all-time series 18-10.

In typical Hayfield fashion, spotting opponents several scores before finding their grove has been their modus operandi. In five of six games this year, Hayfield has failed to score on their opening drive, including last Friday's victory against Mount Vernon. After trailing 0-14 early, not many would have predicted it would turn out to be the second highest scoring game in Hayfield history, falling four points short of last year's 67 point drubbing of Edison. In addition, the combined 104 points (63-41) eclipsed the previous Hayfield record of 96 set between Hayfield and South County in 2016.

Senior Travis Williams broke the ice for Hayfield by pressing the stiff arm and spin buttons on a 48 yard touchdown pass from Junior Monty Byers, the first of many. Mount Vernon was not deterred and responded immediately after poor tackling by the Hawks, to maintain the two score lead 7-20. On the next possession, Byers (JR) would find a wide open Brian Cobbs (SR) on a 17 yard pass, signaling the salvo from Hayfield's air attack was just getting started.

After the Majors first drive of the 2nd quarter stalled, Byers (JR) started to spread the wealth to Cobbs (SR), Tim Wiggins (JR), and Rayjuon Pringle (JR). Byers (JR) hit Wiggins (JR) on a 48 yard pass and then found Pringle (JR) on a 22 yard touchdown to put the Hawks ahead 21-20. Sensing an impending barnburner, the Majors attempted, and failed, on a fake punt. Byers (JR) wasted no time finding holes in the Mount Vernon secondary and connected with Williams (SR) on a 36 yard touchdown to extend the lead 28-20 with 7:00 remaining in the 2nd quarter. The Majors drove the ball into the Hawks redzone and on 1st and Goal slipped poor tackling from Hawk defenders to score, 28-26. Unfortunately for the Majors, the 78 seconds remaining before halftime was more than enough time for Byers (SR) and Pringle (JR) to execute a 62 yard tunnel screen blocked perfectly by Senior left guard Kofi Aboagye-Nyame and Junior left tackle Javier Oliver to go up 35-26.

Early in the 3rd quarter, Senior Demonte Richardson forced and recovered a Mount Vernon fumble at which point Hayfield would lean heavily on Senior running back Kylan Booker, who would finish with 116  yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. Byers (JR) found Cobbs (SR) again on a 5 yard touchdown pass to extend the lead 42-26. With the game pulling away from the Majors, they would fail on a 4th down at midfield. Then on the next Hawks possession Jalen Byers (JR) made a nice adjustment on an under-thrown ball from his brother Monty to undercut the defender and secure the 35 yard touchdown pass. Byers (JR) would finish 18/33 with 378 yards and seven touchdowns. The seven touchdowns are the most by a Hayfield quarterback in a single game in recent memory, however it cannot definitively be said it's a school record as not all statistics are known from years ago.

In the 4th quarter, Mount Vernon's 10 play 40 yard drive would stall, but the flipped field position would come in handy. On the next Hayfield drive, a tipped ball off the fingers of Cobbs (SR) was snagged by a Mount Vernon defender for a 19 yard defensive touchdown. "Two Play" Booker (SR) handled the next drive all by himself on a 23 yard pickup and then finished with a cut move, outrunning two Major defenders and plowing over a third for the 33 yard score, 56-34.

​A desperation heave by Mount Vernon was intercepted by Senior Kennedy Ntiamoah, but the succeeding Hayfield drive would be fumbled after confusion with the snap count, one of the few Hawks miscues. In Hawk territory, the Majors would cash in on a quarterback run, but it was too late, 56-41. Booker (SR) would tack on another touchdown for the final 63-41 score. ​Hayfield was also a prefect 9/9 on extra points with Freshman Elly Gorham contributing seven kicks and Senior Ben Gaynor with two. The Hawks have won 11 in a row over the Majors and lead the all-time series 22-16-1.
