Another big game for Douglas

Stormy weather bumped six future Terps from playing their high school games this weekend.

Three commits had their makeup games last night. Here's what happened in each.

Gary Douglas -- 6-foot, 178-pound running back from Durham (N.C.) Hillside

Hillside (8-2) topped Northern Durham, 43-21.

Douglas carried 15 times for 196 yards and two touchdowns.

According to The [Durham, N.C.] Herald-Sun, Douglas ripped off a 71-yard touchdown run with less than three minutes remaining, putting Hillside on top for good.

“"I saw an opening and got some really great blocking downfield," Douglas told The Herald-Sun. "Northern may not have a good record, but they have a team that can beat anybody. This was a big win for us."

For the season, Douglas has rushed for 1,563 yards and 16 touchdowns on 151 carries, and caught seven passes for 144 yards and one touchdown.

Kerry Boykins -- 6-foot-1, 200-pound wide receiver from Chesapeake (Va.) Oscar F. Smith

Oscar Smith (9-0) blasted Deep Creek, 41-7.

According to The Virginian-Pilot, Boykins caught three passes for 57 yards and one touchdown.

Demetrius Hartsfield -- 6-foot-1, 210-pound linebacker from Southeast Raleigh (N.C.)

Southeast Raleigh (8-2) bested Holly Springs, 31-10.
