MARYVILLE, Mo. | All of the cameras pointed at Jake Soy were for a good reason. The big crowd surrounding Soy &mdash; asking him to explain his first, second or third touchdown Saturday &mdash; is becoming a regular part of his postgame routine. Even one of the fans showed Soy a sign that read: &ldquo;Jake Soy is your daddy.&rdquo;</p><p>They all wanted to have a little time with one of the best wide receivers in Division II. </p><p>Even in Northwest Missouri State&rsquo;s 56-14 dismantling of Central Missouri, Soy continued to amaze Bearcats fans with things they&rsquo;ve never seen before. </p><p>Soy didn&rsquo;t just lead the third-ranked Bearcats, 10-1, 9-0 in the MIAA, with three touchdowns, but it was the way he did. Each touchdown seemed difficult in some way, but Soy made each look almost effortless. </p><p>&ldquo;I really thought they would play us differently on defense,&rdquo; Soy said. &ldquo;I was very surprised.&rdquo;</p><p>With another career day in receiving yards &mdash; 157 on just six receptions &mdash; Soy finished the regular season with 22 touchdowns, by far the most in the country while extending his own MIAA single-season record.</p><p>&ldquo;I just think it couldn&rsquo;t have happened to a better kid,&rdquo; Bearcats quarterback Blake Bolles said. &ldquo;Ever since he&rsquo;s come here, he&rsquo;s worked on his route running, his hands and in the film room.&rdquo;</p><p>Before the game became lopsided, No. 16 Central Missouri, 8-3, 6-3 MIAA, did score first. Quarterback Eric Czernieski found running back Anthony Stewart for a screen pass that went for a 27-yard touchdown. </p><p>From that moment on, Northwest scored 56 unanswered points, making it the largest blowout between the two teams since 1942. </p><p>&ldquo;I think that says a lot of where the Bearcats are at right now,&rdquo; coach Mel Tjeerdsma said. &ldquo;I love the way we&rsquo;re playing football right now.&rdquo; </p><p>After the game, with family members and friends around Soy, they asked him how he had made the leaping touchdown catch over a defender when Central Missouri jumped offsides in the first quarter.</p><p>&ldquo;I knew it was a free play,&rdquo; Soy said. &ldquo;We had nothing to lose, so I went up and grabbed it.&rdquo;</p><p>Then he was asked how he scored his third touchdown, the one where he caught Bolles&rsquo; pass in midair, made a 360-spin move and waltzed into the end zone. </p><p>All Soy did was laugh.</p><p>Sure, he is having fun as the regular season ends. With the win, the Bearcats are more than likely going to receive a bye in the first round of the Division II playoffs.</p><p> The scary thing is that Soy is getting better with each game. Not only has Soy burned every secondary in the MIAA this season, but he continues to improve.</p><p>Before Soy scored three touchdowns and received praise from the fans, this game was supposed to be about what the seniors at Northwest had accomplished.</p><p> The Bearcats have not lost an MIAA game since 2005, giving the senior class a combined 36-0 record against the conference.
