Statistically speaking it looked like another masterpiece.
For Lutcher quarterback D’Wanye “Lunch” Winfield, it was another sterling performance stacked on top of another sterling performance.
Winfield, a senior, combined on 39 plays for 427 total yards and seven touchdowns, including five on the ground, to lead the Bulldogs to a 62-35 road win last Friday over Thibodaux.
For his efforts, Winfield was selected the Tiger Rag Magazine Shining Star of the Week.
“You knew his numbers were good because you watched him play,” Lutcher football coach Dwain Jenkins. “He had a touchdown pass in each half called back and another 60-yard run called back by a holding penalty. It really could have been even more with 500-plus yards and eight, nine touchdowns weren’t out of the realm.”
Lutcher took a 14-0 lead in the first quarter behind Winfield’s two 2-yard scoring runs. The three-star quarterback made it 21-0 with an 18-yard TD pass before Thibodaux responded and got into a scoring match with the Bulldogs.
Winfield added his third 2-yard TD run of the half and Lutcher led 35-20 at halftime before attempting to slow down the pace of the game and grind out the second half to slow down Thibodaux.
Winfield helped Lutcher put the game away with a 61-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter. He rushed 24 times for 237 yards, the school’s 10th best single-season rushing total, and completed 13 of 16 passes for 190 yards and 2 TDs.
“We decided to see if we could take the air out of it a little, go on some longer drives and eat up some clock and maybe shorten the game,” Jenkins said. “When we flipped that switch that meant he had to start running the ball more. He took that in stride.”
