If this theory is correct, wouldn't we find smaller impact sites from the pieces which broke up and would have different points of impact along the same trajectory?

And are there any?

Before or after the main impact site? Any astrophysicist(s) out there that can enighten me?

I'm neither an astrophysicist, nor do I play one on TV, but the simplest explanation would likely be the smaller fragments burned up in the atmosphere, or were so small by the time they struck the surface, they made relatively small impacts that have filled in over time (wind, erosion, etc.)

There are smaller impact points in the mountains to the south.
