McPherson ran the opening kickoff 88 yards for a touchdown at last weekend’s Emerald City Kickoff Classic clash against Coeur d’Alene, at Husky Stadium.
Bothell won 44-43, with help from McPherson on offense and defense.
He had an interception, a fumble recovery, seven solo tackles, and 84 yards rushing.
