The Cosh Watch

Another week, another handful of touchdowns for Arundel’s record-setting quarterback Billy Cosh.

The All-Metro senior threw for four touchdowns in Friday night’s 60-0 win over Northeast to increase his state-record passing touchdowns career total to 94. He has 37 passing touchdowns this season for the No. 1 Wildcats (8-0).

Cosh, who is headed for Kansas State, holds nine state records and is tied for another. (A few weeks ago, I wrote that Cosh held eight records outright, but I missed one: most passing yards in a game – 475 in last year’s state semifinal against Linganore.) He now holds all of the state single-game and single-season passing records except best completion percentage in a season, .694 by Ryan Fleetwood of Cambridge-South Dorchester in 1993. Cosh’s percentage this season is .673.

With two regular-season games remaining and up to four more in the playoffs, Cosh continues to close in on these state public school career records, all set by Mike Pfisterer at North County between 1997 and 2000:

Most passing yards: Pfisterer 6,522, Cosh 6,172
Most passes attempted: Pfisterer 902, Cosh 731.
Most passes completed: Pfisterer 548, Cosh 482.
