Kevin Daft

Foothill, Sr.

Football / Quarterback

Entering Foothill’s game with Canyon last week, Daft had averaged barely more than 100 yards passing. He supplemented his offensive production with some decent rushing figures but the Knights were expecting more. Thursday, they got it. Daft had his finest passing game of the season, completing 11 of 19 for 240 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in a 41-21 victory over Canyon that moved the Knights into sole possession of first place in the Century League. Daft completed touchdown passes of 53, 10 and 73 yards.
