Navasota (Texas) receiver
Tren'Davian Dickson set the national all-time receiving mark Friday night when he hauled in his 35th touchdown of the season.
His 65-yard touchdown in the third quarter of Navasota's Class 4A-I semifinal matchup against Liberty Hill broke the previous mark of 34, held by Kirby Moore of Prosser (Wash.).

Dickson, already committed to Baylor, has enjoyed a prodigious junior campaign. Entering Friday, he had already accumulated 1,902 yards and had pulled in multiple touchdown grabs in all but three of Navasota's 14 games.
Dickson actually tied the record two weeks ago, thanks to a four-touchdown performance against El Campo, but was held scoreless last week in Navasota's 34-14 win over Henderson.
The 247Sports Composite Rankings put Dickson as the nation's No. 194 recruit in the Class of 2016.
If Navasota wins, Dickson could add to his record next week in the Class 4A-1 title game.
