The seven points allowed in the second quarter last week were the first points of the season surrendered in the second quarter by the Rockets.  Only one time in the past 35 games have the Rockets allowed more than 7 points to be scored in the second quarter.

In only one season since 1995 has Crittenden County averaged less than the 9.5 first downs they are averaging per game this season (2010, 8.6).

Crittenden County is averaging 7.5 penalties per game this year which is the most by a team since 2002 (7.6).

CC opponents are averaging 74.9 yards per game rushing this season.  That amount is the fewest on record for CC opponents.

CC is surrendering 3.4 points, on average, in the fourth quarter this season.  3.4 are the fewest points surrendered in the fourth quarter since the Rockets surrendered only 3.1 during the 2003 season.

Crittenden County has won eight homes games in a row dating back to last season.  The school record is eleven which was set in the 1985 to the 1986 seasons.

This senior class has 35 wins as Rockets.  That is currently the third most by a graduating class and the all-time record is 37 by the class of 2000.

Last week, CC outgained Henderson County in terms of total yardage, 216-207.  The last time CC outgained its opponent but lost the game was the third round playoff game of 2018 against Campbellsville. CC outgained Campbellsville 264-215.

Noah Perkins 27-yard field goal against Henderson County was the second longest field goal made by a CC kicker in the past 6 years.  Only Parker Johnson’s 37 yard kick against Union County in 2018 was longer.

Tyler Boone had a monster game with a career high 21 tackles versus Henderson County which gave Boone 91 total tackles on the season.  Boone is the only player of the ten Rockets that have recorded at least 278 total tackles in a career to not have a season with at least 100 total tackles.  Boone had 99 tackles his freshman season, 94 as sophomore and 76 as a junior.

When Tyler Boone records nine more total tackles, it will be the 29th time a player has at least 100 tackles in a season.

Since 2006, only one time has a player recorded more than the 21 tackles Tyler Boone did last week (Adam Beavers, 2018, Campbellsville, 22).

Although many factors played into the outcome of the game last week, the difference of one point was similar to the outcome of the 1962 Crittenden County-Henderson County matchup in that the difference in the ’62 game was an extra point attempt that was wide.

The Rockets are averaging 46.5 offensive plays a game this season.  Since 1995, there have been only three seasons (2008-2010) that the Rockets have ran less offensive plays on average per game.  The highest average is 62.1 offensive plays per game in 2013.

Preston Morgeson has become the 34th Rocket to have at least 25 career receptions and only the fourth to accomplish that by the end of their sophomore season.  The other three were Chad Perryman, Branen Lamey, and Denis Hodge.

When Noah Perkins scores one more point, he will be the 34th player in school history to record 100 career points scored; however, he will be the first to accomplish the feat without ever scoring a TD.  Former Rocket kicker, George Congenie, scored exactly 100 points in his career but returned an interception for a touchdown during his career.
