Lagway鈥檚 great outing is somehow one of his more mild statlines this season as the five-star recruit has thrown seven touchdown passes in one half on two separate occasions this season.
He had a strong junior campaign throwing for 2,081 yards and 24 touchdowns, but he has already eclipsed those numbers in his seven games as a senior.
Despite the fantastic start, the Willis, Texas, native thinks there is more in store for himself and his team.
鈥淚t feels good, but I feel like we haven鈥檛 touched our true capacity yet,鈥� Lagway told . 鈥淲e haven鈥檛 played a complete game of football yet to where our offense is clicking and our defense is clicking. I can鈥檛 wait for that to happen and I feel like it鈥檚 gonna happen at the right time. I feel like we still have a lot of room for improvement. I had a couple of turnovers myself. We have to clean that up for sure.鈥�
Lagway has the deep ball working early. Willis up 14-7 after this pass to Debraun Hampton for a touchdown. 3:26 left in the 1st

Lagway鈥檚 drive to get better is likely why he is as good as he is and shows how much value he can bring to a program as a leader as well. The University of Florida is the future home of the 6-foot-2, 225-pound QB who still has unfinished business in his prep career.
鈥淚 just want to leave it (Willis High School) better than I found it,鈥� Lagway said. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 gonna be the same thing for when I get to Florida.鈥�
When he does get to the Gators鈥� program, do not be surprised if he winds up being a day one starter in Gainesville, Florida.
