Florence's explosive performance pushed his season total to 930 yards on 38 receptions, establishing new single-game and single-season records for the program.
Senior running back Alexander Villanueva continued his record-breaking season, rushing for 145 yards, further cementing his place as the San Diego Section's all-time single-season rushing leader.
