Katsura looking for these off and away so they'll catch you.

We'll take it to distance.

He's in for the touchdown.

Let's go out to the play-by-play with Rod Helverson on WJMS.

Good evening football fans from Long Year Field and I know it is boys high school football time again as the Lake Lindenhubble Lakes coming to town to take on the I know the Red Devils.

I'm Rod Helverson alongside Joel Rimkis and Jason Juno from the globe is up here to join us during the pregame.

And guys, it could be a nice night for football.

There was raining in Bezmer.

you can kind of feel it in the air here but so far so it's still dry

yeah I think we got some rain yesterday if I'm there last night and the field might have a little wetness to it so that ball might be a little hard to hold on to but uh I don't know we'll see what happens but should be a hopefully a real good game tonight uh we're coming off a big victory last week

yeah they're going to be tested a little differently tonight with Lakeland and Lakeland is what I think and Jason can

Second me on this, if you want to make a different point of view, I think Lakeland is probably considered one of the top teams in the upper peninsula.

Yeah, I'm not going to argue with that one.

It's been one of the best programs for home in the years.

And this year, they're right back up to that.

They've got one of the most experienced teams in the conference, the Axford Triplets.

They really got to think of Brady, that's the quarterback.

Brady, yes.

And he's a strong running back.

Yeah, so they come in here.

I think it's the conference favorite in a good conference.

I mean, look at what Norway's been doing.

Crystal Falls.

Again, it's got to be the toughest conference in probably the state and football.

It's just Norway, Crystal Falls, North Central, Lakeland and they're just they're loaded those top four teams and then it drops down a little bit.

We'll see.

We'll see how iron matches up.

They look really good last week against.

Florence team that we're not sure how good they were

yeah Florence definitely didn't look good last week they had 14 players they went down the eighth they left in the third quarter right and I understand why they you know this players were hurt and stuff and they decided to call it but

I would impress at scoring 52 points, no matter if it's a good team or a bad team you're playing.

It doesn't matter.

52 points is a nice score for a high school team.

The line opened up the holes and you got Justin and Blake Peterson running through those openings and they're fast.

They made some nice runs.

Hopefully they can keep that up tonight.

Jason, we were looking at the roster for Ironwood.

one senior, you know, what, four juniors, five juniors, and a bunch of softwares.

So that's a young team.

It is for sure.

That's why it was nice for Ironwood to get that game last week and get away and get some confidence.

Like we talked about during that tough conference, they're going to have some tough games, so nice to start out that way.

For Lake Lyndon tonight, you mentioned Brady Axford, and then there's two brothers, Tyler and Lucas, I think are the wide receivers.

Those three have probably been playing catch in the backyard since they were three years old and now they're seniors in high school.

So I'm sure they can just, they probably don't even have a play call.

They just say, just go out about 20 yards and cut in.

Yeah.

Front of

the garbage can.

There's no place called in.

Like you said, when you play together that long, any team that plays together that long, we saw Hurley basketball last year with the guys.

They played together for years, and it just shows when you start that.

If you still have a good young program, and those kids really get into it, and they buy into what the coach is showing, it's good.

But

when you have

your two brothers as your wide receivers, you

don't see that very often in football.

They probably fight a lot.

What do you think?

I'm sure they do.

How come you didn't show them all to me?

That's it, and they're breaking up a fight.

I wonder which one mom likes the most.

I wonder, yeah.

Who's she cheering for the most?

I've got three numbers on there.

You know how they put numbers on their shirts.

They probably got three numbers on there.

I like you all.

No, but it's going to be a rough game tonight.

I mean, you got to be honest.

It's a real tough opponent like Lyndon comes in with.

They're undefeated, right?

They won last week between Isfemming 52 to

36.

Yeah.

I've given up 36 points, but Isfemming's not in a walk over either.

No, they usually have a decent program.

So yeah, we'll see and ironwood defeated Florence 52 to 15 like we said in three quarters of football last week and Lake Lyndon Norway Norway defeated will give it class night 50 to nothing will give it because you have to score a touchdown that then I'll score 86 to nothing now And it doesn't get any easier for them next week.

They play Crystal Falls and that's another juggernaut in this conference So we'll see

what that brings around

Well, you brought up a good point this morning when you were talking about, I mean, you got eight-man football injuries mean a lot, especially to guys who are starters.

I mean, that means a lot.

It's hard to replace those, especially with a younger team underneath them.

You got to have those starting people in there.

Right, and for Rogibik, you can say they're missing a starter, but they are missing probably a de-starter, probably one of the top players in the U of P in Jaden Barrett, just based on what I saw last year and the year before that, you know.

and it's just he's the type of guy that and I think what's helping the other teams right now is they can really rush the quarterback right now.

They can nothing away from the junior line-up but he doesn't have the speed of Barrett.

You rush your quarterback like Barrett too much.

He can sidestep it and get to the outside and that's in eight man football you get outside but chances are he's gone.

They don't have that this year and

I watched part of that game last night, and we did the game last Friday in Wakefield, and the line is new for Wakefield.

They lost their line from last year.

It's a new offense line.

The lineup doesn't have a lot of time to make a decision on the passes.

We saw that last year in Crystal Falls, right?

Crystal Falls lost their line, and they were 1-8 last year.

They had all new linemen, so it's tough.

And then, you know, they're missing a couple of other starters.

Hopefully those guys will come back.

Unfortunately for Golgivik, they had North Central, Norway and

Crystal Falls'

first

three games.

Yeah, it was a bad timing for that for sure.

And I talked to a League of Legends coach, Gervais, before the season, and asked him who to favorite player.

And he said, it's tough to pick because an eight-player football, you could get two studs in and you're a state title contender.

That's how different the eight-player game is.

I think we were pretty spot on with some of the predictions, really.

Lake London can be pretty good.

Christopher Falls, I think Norway maybe is a little bit of a surprise with all the losses they had.

Yeah.

And like you just said, if you get one or two studs, I think that's what Jaden Verrett would offer, the miners.

We looking at the national anthem, what are we doing here?

That's what we have in the booth up here.

Couple of studs.

Yeah, we got some nails in the wall, right?

Yeah, yeah.

They got to get that stud fired

there up

here.

So you went to Phillips last night, another big road win for the North Stars?

Yeah, they're in the driver's seat, total control of that conference, those two wins last two weeks.

That was huge, to get them both on the road and then go down there and win them both.

Your road trips are kind of exciting, though.

One in Leona went to overtime, so you got back a little later than you expected.

How long was the delay last night for Leighton?

Fifty minutes, but still got out of there earlier than the week before.

Okay,

so you got home at a decent time.

Yeah.

But Hurley looked good and put up 22 points, helped them, helped Phillips the sixth.

Yeah, the defense was what's doing it for him, I think, because they played really well.

You got to keep those post-game

interviews short.

Yes, so you get on the road, yeah.

Now, Hurley's problem is, will they find...

until they find an opponent,

right?

Yeah, for the next two weeks, I think.

That's kind of the reason they went to a player to find some opponents to drive all over creation for.

And then one of the teams that canceled is the new team.

One of the teams that slotted into their conference, they should have kept playing full.

So we'll see.

I mean, there's some teams out there that are dropping their program.

So that means there's other teams out there that are looking for opponents.

Yeah, and you mentioned the Hurley thing, right?

Did you hear anything on that, Jase, at all?

Is Hurley finding an opponent at all?

They're still looking, but I know this afternoon they

still have

one.

Wow, it seems like the more it goes, the harder it's going to get.

Maybe they'll get through this weekend and see who's available next week.

But I mean, even if they don't get one next week, can they possibly get one

in two weeks?

Yeah, maybe.

And is there something on the Michigan side, maybe?

Right.

That's what we were talking about this morning.

A little bit was if they're going to be able to cross over and get somebody from the Michigan side.

I don't know.

But it'll be interesting to see.

Hopefully they do because you don't want to miss two straight weeks.

What is it?

You got to get five wins to make the playoffs?

Is that how it goes?

I can't remember what the rules are.

It's so different than it used to be with each player and they expanded it last year.

I don't think there's a cut and dry number anymore.

So they could still do it with.

So they had two tough

Opponents and they won both those games being on the road.

So they're playing pretty good football and Do they come home next week?

I mean as well.

They look like you said the next two weeks They don't play right they would be home though.

They would be home.

Yeah, so we would have

that game next Friday Yeah, I don't know

if we don't

if they don't find a poll we're gonna have to just go there and pretend as a game We can just sit there.

We can have We'll have a bunch of alumni go out and play that's what we'll do and we'll do an alumni

game I like your thinking.

Yes.

Yep.

I'll announce that you guys go play

Yeah, well we got Lake Linden and Ironwood tonight both teams coming in undefeated Ironwood winning their game last week and Lake Linden undefeated a very strong opponent tonight We're gonna have the national anthem come out shortly.

All right back here along your field.

Well, I mean couldn't been better than what I

know I

tell you what Rod Helverson that was first right down to the Second that the national anthem was played.

We're just waiting for the color guard to mark out the field And we'll be set for football tonight from long your field The silence here

is they make their way out the field

All

right, it's time for football.

All right.

Well, Joe, I think one thing we're going to hear a

lot about tonight is Axford, Axford and Axford.

Well, see, they got seven players on the team named Axford.

All right, they just got three, but it seems like a lot.

One of the game going on in the area involving conference.

The team is over in Antonoghan at Calumet Copper Island Academy.

That's a new charter school playing football I believe for the first year and they're in Antonoghan.

Lakeland and Hubble coached by Brett

Gervais come in with a 1-0 record and I know a coached by Kevin Lane.

They are also at 1-0.

Both members of the Great Lakes 8 West Conference.

It's a game that they can do

it.

Looks like I was going to tee the ball up, Lake Linden.

We'll receive and back deep is number three.

That is Lucas Axford along with number five Brady Axford.

Well, there you go.

The Axford brothers are

Part of the receiver deep receivers Joe you're taking annual stats right sir.

I'm taking Lakeland and ball teed up by Number 50 James and Pisco.

Here's a run-up in the kick high end over and kick it's gonna go down bounce at the 19 Oxford picks it up with a 16.

He's at the 25 30 looking the good

You sideline on the Licklund inside and he does and he's going to bring it back out to the 45.

We have a flag.

Might

be a holding call on that end.

That's probably a

safe call to make.

Yep.

That

tackle that time by, uh, let's see.

I look like a number 18, but I don't have an 18 on here.

Oh, it's 16.

We'll try that one.

That's Evan Cinca.

That's freshman.

Sequonia.

Sequonia?

Is it

really?

Yeah, the brother that played last year.

Okay.

That's the way I used to turn off unless the mother comes up here or father comes up and says it's different.

But I think it was, was it holding or was it clipping?

Holding I think it was 10 yards on the spot

of the pole.

So that backs the wakes up to the 26 yard line.

Yep.

Rather than the 45 the spot of the pole

was around the 30 36 yard line.

Well the big thing is tackling tonight's got to be sure tacklers.

Stay in your lane to them defensive ends have to stay in their lanes Discipline football tonight rod

The quarterback you can see his number that David Tilla on the direct snap number 40

Yeah, Josh David

Tilla

Yeah,

he's 61 he's senior 180

pounds

The

game of 10 in the first down off the opening snap here for Lakeland and David tell he's been playing he was hurt two years ago in Lakeland and played here I've been healthy last year and so far this year and he's a good size good size kid nice athlete now they'll have Brady Axford lined up at the quarterback and Travis Tyler Axford the slot

Just off to Brady's right here's Brady's gonna keep it inside It turns at the corner he took off the 45 and down to the red devil 43 yard line

that's gonna be a pickup 24-yard

pickup

Castillo and

fiscal with the tackle that time

this guy had a great

game last week must have had about at least 25 tackles

Second first down for the lakes all on the red double 41 yard line two plays two first downs Joe not good

No, no, they got a solid team though.

You're looking at them They got some big linemen in there and definitely like I said, they're a seasoned team so See if I or would could get a turnover here or

The Oxford alone in the backfield I'm gonna take it straight ahead and he got to the first level broke a tackle

and they go on his feet.

They got clipping

There's going to be a penalty on number eight for Lakes.

Tyler Axford blocking in the back.

Block in the back.

Damn called it.

And he didn't need to.

He was already by him, but so moves him back another 10 yards.

So

he's

the spot fall.

So it was

a

They're

moving it to the 45, so he picked up six yards.

I'm

going to give them six yards on the carry.

I think you do

that.

He gets the carry.

I

was substituting a little bit right now in

his

Landon Johnson

Jr.

Axe

for that quarterback.

In

the shotgun, alone in the shotgun, takes the steps.

Same play as they just ran, and this one's going to go

down

inside the 20 yard line.

Boy, he just

started

going forward as the ball was snapped, had a little head of steam going, got through the first line of defense,

and took

it down.

Judged just the next

sophomore with the tackle down the field, but way too many yards on that play.

5-10, 15-20, 25, 26 yards on that carry.

Yep.

They're definitely a double-teaming pistol right now.

Every time I watch so far, I've been watching that just to see because he has such a good game.

They're double-teaming him now once they get past him.

Two receivers float out wide right, one left, and number 17 is in the slot.

Axford alone the shotgun.

He's going to take it off right side, and this time he's

wrapped up.

There you go.

Beautiful play at that time.

Jameson Pisco.

There he is.

Wasp of about two for Axford on that one.

Brings

up a second

and

twelve.

Trying to get some other players in here.

Number eight for Lakeland and is Tyler Axford.

Davatilla is forty.

Number seventeen is Toby Tobin Berry.

L on his name is silent.

Yeah.

Well, you can't go to sleep here on the receivers though either because you can sneak one of those backs.

You got to be careful.

Now everybody's in tight real tight formation here.

Axord got blocking.

Oh, and who

gets

in there was James

Episcopal.

Wow.

I think he knew the snap that

time.

I

think he did.

Wow.

He went right through there for a four-yard

loss.

Brady Axford had three linemen in there ahead of him blocking two running backs and the tight end on the run.

Pisco came from the other side before they got moving on that side.

The play was designed to go left and Pisco shot in from the right and grabbed Axford before he could get going.

Loss of three yards.

makes it a third and fifteen now ball back at the twenty five yard line.

Lake Linden quickly and now they got a new quarterback in

there.

That was Blake Leibow.

Yep, went under center.

That's their third penalty already.

Two per legal block in the back and now a legal procedure.

So already thirty five yards in penalties.

Big third down here.

You got to hold them up hold them to nothing this time third and 20 That

time we will went under center as the quarterback He's got to keep your eyes on this offense because they got their switching positions Galen Karoo will freshman in now Exford in the shotgun I would expect a pass here

Haksford back to pass, looking, looking, he's an aerodote course brother and we got contact at the ten yard line and

they're saying

incidental contact.

Yeah.

That was a nice pass from Axford.

But

tended for Lucas Axford.

About ten yards too long

though.

Beautiful pass though.

Five

to three for zero.

That was the passing.

This is a nice fly swatter.

Oh, don't use that as my flight swatter, that's my little card.

It works well.

What are you going to call it?

I'm forked down here from the 30 yard line.

Obviously they're not going to punt.

Nope.

Look for the same play, I bet.

There he acts for shot confirmation.

Tyler acts with the receiver on the left.

Perhaps we're gonna air it all Dan over shot his receiver boy That was a nice pass.

Are you over the head of

another milky?

That was about ten yards over his head, too He's got a spiral.

He's got a nice spiral, but not even close on the passes right there though

Well iron defense gave up some yardage, but they did not give up score Yep, and they will take over first in ten on their own 30 yard line

red devils dressed in their home dark uniforms dark maroon pants maroon shirts maroon helmets with white numerals lake linden in there oh i've seen these uniforms since the 80s navy blue pants white jerseys navy blue numerals and yellow helmets so here we go judge justinick a great game last week we'll start at quarterback lake peterson i believe is the running back off to his right

First in 10 Red Devils and number one thoughts.

What was the first time?

Yeah, he

was downfield.

It was

all started on the Red Devils.

Yep, Legale kind of said, hey, is it Legalo?

Legalo.

Got a little early start there.

Sure to beat everybody upfield.

Yeah, and he did.

Hopefully nobody's down low.

Hopefully the ref didn't notice him.

Yeah,

he's not a player.

So

first in 15 for the Red Devils, back on their own 25 yard lane now, same formation.

Justin Nick in the shotgun, and he's going to take it off to the right side, get some running room, he'll get back.

Back to the lattice curvature.

Yeah, and maybe one more yard.

Pick up on 6.

Justin Nick is a 6 foot 190

pound sophomore.

Just another way you're in, I mean what?

735 to go first quarter, no score.

That devil is with their second play of their first possession.

Number 55 breaks the huddle first, that is the center, Isaac

Hofstede.

R.J.

Costello is a little wide right.

Just the next, right ahead, puts his head down, he'll get a couple yards.

I

picked up maybe two and then I'll make it a third and seven

ball on the Red Devil 33

yard line.

I can pick up who else is out there.

Number 12 for the Red Devils is Randall

Katsich.

Katsich is going to go

wide.

Right right this

time

Just the next days in the shotgun that Peterson right behind him Hand up the Peterson and lakes were not fooled on that one.

No Peterson dropped right at the line of scrimmage

Number of a fourth and seven and probably a punt

Back in punt formation is

Randall Cassage,

back deep, number three Lucas Axford.

All I gotta say is Axford and I'll probably be right.

Yeah, hopefully first name.

Hopefully the staff is good.

Hopefully they worked on that a little bit last week.

They had a couple

bad snaps, but get this one back

to him.

Cassage is a nice punt.

It's going to be taken by Axford at the 40, 45, 50 and knocked out a bounce at the red double 37 yard line.

Nice return.

By

Axford, you do have some

fives on them.

Lucas

is a 5, 855 pound

back.

Quarterback Tyler

Axford.

I mean,

Brady Axford is a 5, 7, 170.

Two

Red Devils right there on him that time, Rod.

And they let him get around them.

They got to be under control.

Yep.

Yeah, they had good coverage, I feel, but Axford a little quicker than they probably thought and went right by him.

Here we go, first in 10 lakes.

Now, Lebo is going to go under center.

He's got Brady Axford as the deep back,

and Tyler Axford

as the up back.

Lebo under center, throws it back to Brady,

and he fumbled the ball,

and

I

think

Tyler

fell

on that.

Yep,

beautiful.

Beautiful.

Too much, too much, you know, sometimes you can get too fancy.

You know what I mean?

A lot of movement at the line of scrimmage, people going every which way.

I heard what had that place stuffed out though.

They did.

Yep, they did.

And you know, that grass might be a little bit wet and the ball was, it was a pitch to the right and Brady never really had his, got a handle on that ball.

He was looking downfield already.

You got to

watch it right to your hands.

So first and ten Red Devils on their own 40 yard line.

Let's see if they can get some offense going here.

Just Nick in the shotgun.

Goes in the role to the right, picks up a block, sits back, and he's still on his feet.

Nice run.

Got up to the 46,

pick up about six

yards.

That's

not

my 81.

Charlie Hale will put him off the right side, and then he cut it back inside.

It's not like last week where they had those big gaps last week.

They're getting hit, bumping around, but still a beautiful game of six yards.

Looked like a pinball in there.

Second and six.

Five oh nine to go here first quarter and no score.

Some crowd over there from Lake Linden.

They have a nice

following.

Second and

four.

Justin Eck coming out the right side.

He's going to get the first down and more.

He's inside Lake's territory.

Yep.

Pick

up above 13 and a first down for the Red Devils.

How

many was that Red?

13.

13?

Okay.

They sent true Legalo

in

motion.

Yeah.

And that may have confused the Lake Linden defensive line.

I agree with you 100%.

They were thinking the pitch was going to go to him.

They all looked that way and he cut back the other way.

Beautiful play call.

Nice execution.

Legalo is lined up right behind the right guard.

with Justin Ecc in the shotgun and Legalo ran backwards towards the ironwood goal line and then cut over, cut behind Justin Ecc.

So first in ten Red Devils.

This is Peterson, breaks the tackle in the backfield and he's going to get about a five minute pick up.

He

broke that first tackle.

Yes.

And number one, Blake Devo.

Peterson is a six foot hundred seventy five pound sophomore.

A lot of sophomores on this football team.

That's what we were talking about a little bit of pregame you know and even last week it's a young team and you know they could be surprising.

That's the way football is though.

You know you never know and these guys have been uh last week they had a nice game with Florence which built their confidence and coming into this game so far the first quarter.

Maybe they're too young to be intimidated by Lake Linden right?

The Mesquite.

Sometimes that

happens.

Second and about five for the Red Devils.

Stay in the shot information.

This would be a direct snap to Peterson who hands it off to Justin Eck and he'll get good yardage to about the 35 yard line.

So that's gonna be a pickup of about I would say three yards, two yards maybe, make it third

and three on the

Lake Linden 36

yard line.

nice drive put together here so far by air would keep it going yeah things are working

little short gains but moving the six

well you're keeping it out of their offensive hands too

you're right right picking time off the clock passage out wide right the goal goes a motion again and this time uh lakeland and didn't buy the motion

yep

Yeah, they read that

one.

Pull me once, pull me twice.

The

loss of three, I think, on that play.

Justin from the shot guy, he was hit immediately.

Someone shot the gap.

He didn't make any steps forward.

So do you see a pass coming?

I tell you what, it's still at that point where they could pick it up by running.

Don't know they've

been they've had success

Running the ball except for that last play Yeah, I'll say pass Just the neck.

No, he's gonna keep it straight ahead and he is not He barely got back to the line this image

and that's where

that drive will stall.

So with 156 to go here in the first quarter, Ironwood will turn the ball over on Downs

and

it'll go back to Lake Linden who will start on their own 37 yard line.

Scoreless here in the first quarter.

Yeah so far Ironwood's defense has been playing pretty well and it's nice to see it holding Lake Linden scoreless.

Lake Linden

One day, how many points did they have last week over 50?

50,

50.

I know you're testing me.

I know

you are.

By 52.

Yeah, and you know the thing is, it's still early.

I mean, every game is early yet, but I would play some stout defense and that turnover, getting that turnover was big.

So, that's what they do.

They both scored 52 last week.

Yes.

I know that 50.

All right, here we go.

First in 10, Lakes.

Praliacs for deep.

So, nope, it's Lebo under center, hand off to Axford, takes the tackle, turns the corner, and brought down finally by number one, being true to Gallo, but not until he picked up.

Oh,

another flag.

Yeah.

So, I would give him 10 yards on the carry, and then this one's coming back.

Let's see if it... No, they're going to call Face Mask on there.

Oh,

okay.

Not

coming back.

So we picked up 20 yards on the carry and then they're going to get 10 more yards

on the penalty.

Well, you saved the touchdown.

I don't want a face mask, but...

Well, you do what you can to stop a touchdown.

Yep, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

That means grabbing the face mask.

They kind

of switched up a little

bit now on defense.

Abe Meiji's

playing the nose

tackle and they got...

Pisco kind

of play an outside

linebacker.

So first in 10 lakes, Lebo is going to go under center.

This is a real tight formation.

Oh, they're moving.

They did it on the last diamond.

Lebo under center.

And off goes to the up back.

I think that's got a chillo with a height.

I think that's the... No, that's not him.

No, number eight.

That

is

Tyler

Archard.

It

takes up about five yards on that carry.

And down to a minute and

twenty-seven seconds to go here in the first quarter.

Now let's get another turn over here.

Yes.

That's about where they stopped them last time.

Lakes break the huddle.

Livo's going to go under center.

Scott, both Axford's lined up.

Brady is off center a little bit.

Hand out, Andy.

I'm out of hand.

They bobbled the snap as a fake to the up back.

And I don't want to say I called that, but I called it.

You

have the second fold in the same area.

Yep.

And

I'll tell you what's going on, though.

I mean, I'd like the motion on their offense, but

Ironwood's getting in there

and disrupting plays,

and they're just getting back far enough to make that running back, make that little move that's going to drop the ball.

He needs you at the recovery, and Father Matt gave him a standing ovation.

Yep.

Matt's in right down in front of us.

He works for us, doesn't he?

Well, he shows up.

Yeah, he's there.

No, he's a good guy.

Yeah, he works for us.

All right, here we go.

For us?

For us, well, we're

field.

I don't

know.

First

in 10 Red Devils, Justin Acke.

No, this is Peter Santanese

dropping the

backfield.

That one by number 81

there.

Charlie Hunnell.

Yeah,

he blew through there pretty easily.

It's

kind of tough because you want to throw in this situation, but because right now

How much time left before?

This is the last play right there.

30 seconds.

And the flag is not moving at all.

So there's no wind out there.

No.

It's a nice night for football though.

I know it has not thrown a pass yet.

Now they got to stay in the shotgun.

Justin and Peterson could go to either one here.

Legalo in motion and clock may have run out,

right?

Nope, time out.

Okay,

I'm gonna take your time out.

We'll take a break as well.

13 seconds to go first quarter.

No score here from Longyear Field.

We'll be back in

one minute.

Alright, back here in, I don't know what, 13 seconds to go first quarter.

This should be the last play of the first quarter.

I don't know if they see any second and about 15 from their own 19 yard line.

Recovering the second.

I had all the time out to tie a shoe and then he comes on the field and ties a shoe.

Yeah, that's a psychological move.

Yeah, left over right, bunny ears.

Justin, fix the handoff.

He's gonna come right side and run out of bounds.

So I guess that's not gonna be the last play of the first quarter.

One block, one block

right there

on that end.

Yep.

Well,

Justin, I picked up maybe one yard.

Yeah, I gotta keep that.

Yeah.

Number eight, Tyler Axford pushing

number eight, Judd Justin, out of bounds.

You get into the game, you know, and you just forget that you have this sheet in front of you.

You have a job to do.

Besides talking, you have a job to do.

I'm not good at the other job.

You know, good at talking stuff, though.

All right, third down.

Oh, drips on this side.

They're

down in another time.

Oh, Lakeland is going to take a time off.

We'll take another one minute break here with nine seconds to go, and no score.

All

right, third down and about 14 for the Red Devils.

Justin Agamos lost it in the backfield, managed to bring it in and gets back in.

Maybe the original line of scrimmage, it's going to be fourth and 10 now I think the quarter will run out and it has.

Dr. Jacobs and Dr. Albin are licensed general

dentists.

Ironwood.

You forget where we were.

I had to look around to which school I was by.

They don't have it on them.

I thought

I could say like in the end zone.

I had to look around

to see if I recognized anybody.

It's a confusing thing since we've been promo-ing it all week.

Good times.

Well the score is 0-0 going into the second quarter.

I hear we get a punt.

Yeah, here we go.

We're fortunate to get two of the lake's fumbles

and now Randall Cassidy's back in funformation.

This is what their second punt on a high snap, but Cassidy grabs it, punts it.

Ball's going to hit at the 45 and bounce into Lakeland and Territory, and it's going to roll dead at about the 42 yard line.

He's punted by Cassidy, considering he had

a high snap.

You keep it out of the hands of those guys running it back.

That's

right.

Referee crew tonight, Bucky Beach, Alex Perra, Jeff Wasley, Lou Amill, and Doug Hodges.

You know those guys?

I

know Jeff

Wasley.

I didn't hear the other ones.

I wasn't even listening to

you.

Oh, okay.

Story of my life.

Yeah.

I thought you were talking to somebody else.

No, talking to you.

Oh.

All right, first in 10 lakes, 42-yard line, their own 42-yard line.

This is their, what, fourth series,

right?

Oh.

Looks like a pat.

Well,

you never

know.

Axe for a deep.

In the shotgun.

Trips to the right.

See what they want to do.

Axe for a straight ahead and breaks a tackle and falls forward.

Wow.

Picks up five yards

and that carry.

He took up around the 45 yard line.

Was that?

I'm trying to catch

the number.

At the 47 second on five.

Trying to catch the number on that one, Ron.

I think it was the middle linebacker that made the

tackle.

With your own shoes?

Yes, but I can't see his number.

Yeah, they should turn and face us.

Yeah, they should put their hand up, too,

after they make a play.

Yeah, he still doesn't look over here.

Well, I guess he doesn't give his name on the radio.

That's how I'll do it.

We'll get it.

We'll get it next time.

Side chest that

I can look like.

Second in, five for the lakes.

Axford straight ahead looking for runny room finds him on the left side.

He's gonna get the first down and more Needed five.

You got about seven.

Yeah,

that was judge.

Just a neck And that lacks tackle was Alex 27

27

Yes Well, he made you coming back to play nose tackle.

He was the one to recover that fumble last time to stop the drive

First in 10 lakes on the Red Devil 44 yard line Just underway here in the second quarter as the lakes head towards the end zone by the high school

We're back

under center.

Here's the pitch to Tyler Axford Let's go

with the tackle along with legal

I think as long as I say Axford has the ball, I'll be good.

There's

three of them out there.

Three of the four ball carriers are Axords.

You should just give initials.

BP, QV.

QV, RV, and WR.

Second in six for the lakes on the Red Devil 41 yard line.

They break the huddle.

Brady Axford in the shotgun.

Tyler Axford in the

slot.

And this will be a pass.

Pump fake and I was going to air it out.

He's got a guy out there and good defense.

Oh, catch it.

Did he catch it?

Yeah, it was caught.

Nope,

complete.

He did catch it.

Well, number one had

good

defense.

He started face guarding

that too, but I don't know if they call that anymore, but it went right through his hands.

You know what?

I didn't see who cut that ball.

The receiver.

Is it 1 or

was it 10?

Yeah,

number 1 cut the ball.

9, 10,

15, 20, the 26 yard pickup and the first down.

The first down by the passing rote.

Pretty accurate on the shot.

He's going to throw a quick one out to the left.

He goes to Tyler Axford.

He's got a hole for the

end zone and he is open.

He did tackle on the outside that time.

10-yard

touchdown.

10-yard pass with the lakes on the board.

6-0 with 9.34 to go here in the second quarter.

And Lake Lyndon draws first blood.

Well,

hold on to this two-point

conversion.

two spread out to the right this time around and one over to the left side so receivers out there I think it's going to be a quarterback draw though I can almost feel that spread this defense out a little bit

ready action under center and a little stutter step and he's going to be wrapped up and short of the goal line and the two-point conversion is no good and with 9 34 to go in the second quarter it's like the level six

I know

with nothing we'll be back in 30 seconds with the red devil kickoff

I said red double kickoff.

I really, really meant the lakes kickoff.

At least tell the series that when I were kicks off after they score, right?

Yes.

6-0 in lakes.

9-34 to go, 2nd

quarter.

Right now we're ready to go.

Lakes are just breaking their hull over on

the...

And Tyler actually has the wall peed up.

Still 68 degrees out there, right?

Yeah, kind of a nice night.

A

little cool.

Little damp little cloudy cool.

Oh cool.

You know, I mean it was what 85 the other day So this is kind of cool.

All right.

Well, that's right.

You do play pickleball Here we go.

Who's back deep Randall Cassage standing on his own 13-yard line in the kick it's a squibber and No, this is off the red dial and come

on

The

ball hit them and bounced back towards the oncoming lakes and they had no trouble just falling on that.

What an unfortunate bounce it took.

Oh that was terrible.

I can't let that happen.

Let's outlaw these script kicks.

Yeah that was, I mean it wasn't anything, it didn't come up, it didn't bounce up, it stayed on the ground.

Still not a real hard play to field that time.

Not a good turnover.

Great field position if they've received that.

They're at midfield, but well defense has to come back out there, make some plays.

All right, so Lake Lyndon will take over first in 10 ball right at midfield, right in front of you, Joe.

I see it.

Levo is going to go under center, except the Axford brothers lined up behind him, and let's see which one gets it.

It's going to be Brady in the back breaks a tackle

and

he still picks up four yards.

Whoa

Well, that was that was the defensive air there.

They should have all three hit them You can't just one guy wraps them up the whistle that blow and two guys stood there on each side of them But they've tackled that time by RJ Castillo though.

I want to see the replay on that one You should have a big screen here and they should up in those trees To be right in front of us.

Yeah

but nice tackle that time they broke into the backfield disrupted that play and

second and six ball on the end with 46 yard line same formation we go under center Axford brothers in the eye formation this one goes to Brady again up the middle brings it no he doesn't it was uh the quarterback

keeper

down to the nine-yard line.

Boy, I thought Brady Axford had

it.

That was a great fake.

Wow.

That was a great fake.

Nothing you can do.

You know who

ran that play perfectly over the years?

Early.

Early.

Yeah.

A lot of motion, a lot of fakes, and then they just...

But yeah, they carry everybody carried out their fakes well and right around the end.

Yes,

so nice play

boy.

I haven't been faked out like that in a long

time.

I

Thought for sure actually have the

ball in the middle.

We're both watching him

This is Tyler Axford off the left side and he's gonna pick up two yards inside the ten yard land now.

Yep

AG and let's see who else with the tackle in there.

Likes pick

up their eighth first down

of the first half.

804 to go second quarter.

Likes up six to nothing and they are ponying on the door again ball on the nine yard line.

Yep, this is where Ironwood has to hold strong.

Yeah, let's see their formation this time.

Sticking with Lebo at quarterback.

3D axe for the up back Tyler axe for the deep back in the eye formation And off the

line No 27 that time that was by Alex is Borsky Beautiful play that time

similar play to what they just pulled me on and this time they lose three yards maybe even four

yards

I think even more than that rod was I think because they had a second and like six Yeah, the second and nine second nine.

Okay, but I'm sorry.

Yeah,

I think I'm gonna give him minus five yards.

I got this beam in front of me.

It's like last week It's a moving beam.

Is it that looks like the same one that was in yeah?

314

Freddy Axford up the middle and he's wrapped up.

He'll get a little bit of yardage.

He gets to the ten yard line.

They're gonna face a

fourth and seven, I believe.

Yep,

nice tackle

that time.

Big play here, big play.

Defense got a hold here now.

That'd be the biggest

play

of the

game so

far.

Yep, it could be the smart choice of the game.

Could very well be.

Maybe they kick a field ball.

I don't know, go up by two scores.

They both get to play for us.

We got to make the field go up.

That's true.

That's true.

Formation is the Brady Axe for a loan and a shot down.

We got a timeout on the field.

We'll take one as well.

6-14 to go.

Six nothing lakes.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

exactly what they're doing.

All right.

6-14 to go, second quarter.

Lakes six.

Are you with nothing?

Lakes facing a huge fourth and what?

11.

Nine.

Fourth and nine ball in the 10.

What's your call, Joe?

What are you going to do?

Well, a fade

to the corner.

A fade to the corner?

Yep.

He's just going to lob it up there and hope his receiver gets it.

All right.

There you go.

You got

it from... Because I wouldn't... I don't

think they're

going to run this in from that

far.

I think Irwin's defensive line is playing pretty good.

So I think it's going to be a fade though.

I don't know which corner though.

I can't tell you that.

All right, here we go.

Lakes break the huddle.

Brady Axford, a little in the

shotgun.

He's got

milky out

wide left.

Axford

out to the left.

It's going to be a corner to the end zone

and it is a touchdown, a

fade pattern.

And

six more for Lakeland.

I think Joe Watt went through the Lakeland game last week and watched all their plays.

You can just tell because the defensive backs are young and they watched a little bit last week when they even played Florence and they didn't play the corners.

Let them get behind them and you cannot let a guy get behind you.

You got two things you can do.

You can bump them at the line of scrimmage.

All right, let them catch the ball in front of you and make the tackle.

Can't let them get behind you, especially with a season team like this with a quarterback like this.

I'll hold them on a two-point conversion.

Thanks.

I'll go for two.

Pitch it back to Tyler Axford and Axford will jog in.

on touch

and the

lakes

go

up 14 to nothing in 609 to go in the second quarter.

We'll take a 30 second break.

Come back with the lake's kickoff after this message.

All right, Zach, you're in Ironwood.

As we await the lakes, look at it.

Red Devils are ready to go.

And the lakes are still our own.

The coach huddling.

They have time to do that, of course.

But the Red Devils are

already

set.

Now, are they going to do a squib kick?

I don't know.

You want to describe a squib kick for our listeners who are wondering what

a squib kick is?

It's where the kicker squids it.

okay

yeah

no he kicks it kind of off the side of his foot off the side of t and it just rolls about eight to ten yards and hopefully like last time the uh guy feeling the ball fumbles it was that a little better

that's better that's better Tyler Oxford have the ball teed up and we are set to go here's the run-up and the kick and it is another quick line drive that was a line drive to number 11 wow

He's the one who, you know, had

the

trouble feeling the last one.

He caught that one.

The difference

between the two picks is the first one that he never got off the ground.

It rolled.

Yeah.

It was a hard roller.

This was a line drive.

Yeah, and he caught it.

Good heads there.

Yes, he did.

He wasn't letting that one get by him.

It was like super glue out

there.

He either

catch it or it's going

through you.

Yeah.

So first and ten Red Devils on their 47-yard line, those skipkicks are successful, but they also give the other team good field position.

That's what anyone has known.

They got to go down the score here before half-time.

This is Justin Mc, up the

middle and maybe a yard.

Well, they got to start mixing that up a little bit though.

What do you think Rod?

I mean, I get

it.

I get it.

That was your bread and butter last week and everything.

And that's kind of

your two big guns.

But

right now you got to maybe get a reverse or something to get that momentum, you know, get that defense moving a little bit more, thinking a little bit more.

Right.

Yeah, like Lyndon seems to have this.

Yeah, it's pretty much under control right now.

Yeah, they're sniffing out this.

They know if I look at the carries right now, it's just an act with like 12 carat, no 10

carries.

Could

be Justin Eck or Peterson.

It's Justin Eck back to pass.

He's going to air it out.

He's got a guy out

there

and

the

defender fell down.

Look at that.

Beautiful, beautiful.

And that was

a 50 yard pass, right?

Was it up to 50?

Yeah, for 49 it could have been, but I'll give it 50.

Okay.

Yeah, beautiful play though.

Well, he ran by him.

That's why the guy tripped.

He had to turn around.

He got him turned around.

That guy tripped over his own two feet.

And it was great that he caught the ball too.

That's, you know, that's, it's saying little things like that.

But when you're that wide open after you see the ball come in, it's like, ah, you

know, that was a goal for two.

Track snap goes to Justin Eck and the pass holding the flat is going to be incomplete extra point is no good and with 5 16 to go first second quarter rather if they couldn't be 14 and

Ironwood 6 we'll

be

back in

30

seconds with

the Red Devil kickoff

Oh,

Nice play.

Yes, play.

Helped by the fact that milky lost his footing on the

boat

about 25 yards, but that happened.

That's football

Yep, and you know Rod the receiver kind of turned around.

Yes He went down the just like you know, you can't do that You can't let him run up to you and then all of a sudden expect to adjust and I made a nice play that time for a touchdown so

Just go ahead the ball teed up at the 40 back deep are the Oxford brothers There's the run-up in the kick.

It's a high end over and kick

He's taken by Brady Aksford at about the 25, 30, looking for blocking and he's going to get out to the Red Devil or Lake Linden 43 yard line and that's where the lakes will start.

You know, Blake Peterson

made that tackle,

you

know, and every time I look at a play, it's a sophomore.

You know, except Aden Agee has a nice game today, you know, he's a junior, but just a sophomore, sophomore, sophomore, sophomore, you know, and these kids are playing hard out there.

Good group of sophomores here.

Yeah future for anyone football.

Yep He's in good hands, I think Yeah, the little senior Randall Cassage is the one that caught that type of pass So the lakes will take over first in 10 on the 43 yard line 508 to go before halftime Red Devils can hold them here.

Yeah, Red Devils look at the wall half time, right?

Yes.

He takes off left side and he is off at a race there and I think he may score.

He's being chased by Justin Ack.

Will Justin Ack catch him?

Yeah, did he get in?

I don't know.

He tripped at about the five yard line

and

stumbled

into

the end zone and just like that, Lake Linden put six more on the board.

Wow.

Yeah, Miss Tackle at the line of scrimmage and he blew through that little hole and that was it.

That was a...

57

year run for 57 to go second quarter and we got another score by Lake Lyndon.

They'll go

for two.

Where's the

lights on

yet?

Yeah, that's a good point.

Under center, backs are in the eye.

Let's see how they run this play.

And off goes to nobody.

It's a fake handoff.

I don't know if somebody ran the wrong route.

Leavals seem

to have confused back there.

He looked for someone and he wasn't coming to get the ball.

It's like, okay,

well.

They're doing great

on these two point conversions.

I hear what is, but.

457

to go here, second quarter.

If Lakeland in 20, I mean with six, we'll be back in 30 seconds with the Lakes

All right, back here in Ayrwood as we kick off from the lakes who respond rather quickly.

How do you spell squib?

S-Q-U-I-B.

Tyler actually has the ball teed up.

Back deep for the Red Devils is Randall Cassis.

That really isn't a point that I need to make because the three kickoffs have been little

Squivers, I'm gonna call them squivers.

I don't think that's a definition here Squib is an online username.

I guess there's not really a word to

run up in the kick and it's an end over and kick it's gonna go to Legalo at the 25 30 and he gets

Oh to about the 40.

Where did he go on the bones?

We're going to mark this.

46 yard line is where the Red Devils will start.

Nice return by Trula Gallo.

I go first play, deep pass.

We'll

try that same play again.

Throw in the same area.

I would do this.

Right now they're expecting you to run, run, run, run, run.

First play.

All right.

Well, we'll see

if... I'm not saying it's going to happen.

So it can't ruin my three for three.

But I just think it would be a great play right now.

55 breaks the huddle first.

That is Isaac Hofstede.

Now the Red Devils will line up in their offensive formation.

Peterson and Justin X. Both looking for the direct snap.

It goes to Peterson.

Left side.

Got a little opening and he gets inside Lake's territory.

Beautiful cut back there, Rod.

Yes it

was.

The

red

is black

walking

perfectly.

Yes, he did.

It makes it a second

and about three.

I think it is about time for those lights to come on.

Well, I

would think so.

Yeah.

It's getting a

little... Actually, for us, it's kind of nice.

Yeah.

The lights will reflect off this glass and we'll have some glare, but if it gets too glaring, I'm going to go sit in the stands.

I'll go sit with you.

Yeah, we'll just take the equipment and move it out.

Yeah.

Second down and about

now that one guy's outside this hand.

It's off sides

on defense or offense a defense Justin Eric might have He might give him a yard.

Yes.

What's up?

They're gonna give him a

good

So that'll make it third and three

47

to go here, but the red doubles could score

late in the first half, the ball will start the third quarter.

Yeah, I agree with you bud.

I think they might, how much time left?

They're

about three minutes by the time they snap this ball.

Okay, 3.30 right now.

It's hard for me to see that scoreboard over there.

Big letters, you know.

The information, Justin Egg and Peterson.

Snap goes to Justin Egg, up the middle, breaks the tackle and he's going to get the first down and more.

He's going to get inside, he's going to get down to the 40 yard line.

First down for the Red Devils.

One will move

a chain and a new set of downs.

Red Devils, I believe, have all three timeouts.

Something, or did they take a timeout in the first

half?

They did.

Yeah, they

took a timeout.

They did.

Okay, I know Lakeland and took a couple.

First in 10, ball on the lakes, 40.

Hold on.

between the 40 and the 41 yard line.

The red double slowly break the huddle.

The

castage goes all wide

left.

And it looks like number 11.

Haley Carulo is wide right.

There's almost a fumble.

A bobbled snap I should say.

Yeah.

Peterson grabs it and gets what he can.

Might have got a yard.

That play brings up a second in 10 to 29 to go second quarter 226 lakes out in front

Next

week we could see another powerhouse Jill you and I crystal falls forest park

And we'll give it in Besmer.

Probably haven't done a game in Besmer in years.

No, it's been centuries.

Centuries even.

Justin, back to pass, heavy rush, he gets away from the rush, but he's got nobody.

Oh, he breaks a tackle and he's going to get... Boy, he made something out of

nothing.

Wow, one guy to beat too and he would have been gone.

Boy, that's almost like making a cake with no eggs in the house.

We

made something out of nothing.

That was a good one.

What

do you get

on

that one, Rod?

Seven.

Seven.

Third and three.

We got a timeout.

We'll take a little break ourselves.

152 to go second quarter.

20 to six breaks.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

All right, back here in Ironwood.

Ironwood facing a third, here in Fordown territory.

Yeah.

It's third and three, third and four, I guess.

And at 52 left.

Justin is now alone in the shotgun.

Peterson split out in a slot through the right.

Cassage split out wide left.

Just an act as they split really spread the defense over here.

Just an act to the air it on this one at it down almost intercepted by Number 10 from

Lake

Lyndon that is

Alfred milky And just like

At least they didn't lose yardage on

that right

but that could have been

intercepted the thing is they got three blockers in when they spread it out like that and

Lake Linden has no problem listening.

Right.

And they sent five.

So they were just saying if we put pressure on them.

Here's a huge play for the Red Devil here in the second quarter trailing by 14.

Fourth and about four from the Lake's 34 yard line.

Just a neck alone in the backfield.

Back to pass under a heavy rush.

Can he get away from this one?

He throws it up and intercepted.

Well, they would have got the ball there anyway.

Yep, actually he gained four yards by throwing that pick.

He didn't have any time, though, that time.

Interception by Lake Linden.

So I think 81 intercepted that,

right?

Marked

on.

Marked on.

Intercepted by

the number.

And that'll be first in 10 for the way so now it's up to the ironwood defense to not allow them another score Yeah, and I

guess in a way You know you got to keep trying and do it run on your plays But maybe that pass play on third down was the wrong call just I'm not sucking guessing but you stop the clock And you give them the ball back now if you don't get it, you know, yes, and that's But defense got to be dealt here

Axford, deep in the shot done, and almost fell over as he got it.

Boy, the rush, and Axford's off to the races again.

He's going to pick up the first down.

He's going to pick up a ball 13 yards, and the lights are coming on here at

Longyear Field.

Well, he almost fell backwards as that ball was coming towards

him from the snap.

And

Ironwood

player was right

in there.

He just ran right by him.

He got

to go under control.

Lakes

quickly out of the huddle.

Clock running, now minute 28.

I

heard defense got to keep him out of the end zone.

Brady Axford loading the shot gun.

He's got two receivers out left.

One out wide right.

He's going to keep it himself up the middle and going nowhere

and nowhere that time.

AG

and this is Morski.

And they score with a little huddle now.

I

think they have one time out

left.

information, not the same information, but I actually was alone in the shotgun.

The receiver is all wide left.

He dropped the way to the path and he dropped the ball,

fell out of his

hands.

This is going to be a loss,

a huge loss.

I'm going

to give him a loss of 10.

Yeah, that time Landon Johnson and A&A, no, not Landon Johnson and Jamison Pisco, both in there.

He was just about ready to release it and it slipped out of his hands and all he could do was fall on

it.

Yep, clock running with 30 seconds, Rod.

Third and five,

10.

Now here's where you don't let any receiver get behind you right now.

Put some pressure on

the

quarterback.

Third and long.

Actually back to pass he's got a guy across the middle and over shot his receiver who was wide open got behind the defense just as you said Don't let the receiver get behind you.

I don't know how you do it.

Yes, I don't know how you let a receiver run behind you

I'm

not trying to be critical because I know they're young kids yet and everything else I'm just saying these are things that The coaches have said they told us last week against Florence remember

They got the receivers.

You can't let them get behind you.

And they did both times.

If that ball was on target, he's gone.

You would have touched them.

That

pass was intended

for Lucas, expert.

Whose name we have not mentioned tonight.

But the same thing right now.

Just get back there.

Just don't let that ball get behind you.

You may

punt this.

Let's see.

Actually it is down.

It's going to be a punt by the quarterback.

Nice kick.

Red Devils are going to let it bounce.

Everybody stay away from it.

this is going to roll dead at about the 14 yard line and that's half time and long clock has run out so we are at the halftime with the score lake lindenhubble 20 ironwood six we'll take a five minute break we'll come back with stats and comments and everything else we can think of after these messages 20 to six as we go to halftime we'll be back in five

It wasn't the happiest of Halloween's last year in the football stands, but a bunch of sports did see attendance increases.

I'm John Ross, and this is This Week in High School Sports, powered by the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, and coming to you from the 1-800 Call Sam Studio.

The 2025-26 school year saw attendance at MHSAA postseason events near 1.4 million spectators down slightly from the previous year, but still with 10 sports showing an increase from year to year.

Boys La Crosse saw an 18% increase in set attendance highs at both the semifinal round and overall.

Girls Volleyball set records at the district and regional level and came just 99 tickets shy of setting an overall high.

Boys and Girls Basketball, Competitive Cheer, Girls La Crosse, Cross Country, Boys Swimming and Diving and Individual Wrestling all showed increases from the 2024-25 school year.

The individual wrestling finals had their largest crowd since 2017.

The football district semi-final round was held on Halloween and that contributed to a 29% decrease in opening weekend tickets sold, but it wasn't all trick for football.

There were some treats.

The regional and semi-final round saw their highest attendance since 2012 and the football finals the highest since 2019.

For more, head over to mhsa.com.

It's time for game balls when we highlight a trio of standout performances from the past week.

First, Celine running back Carson Cherry ran for 248 yards and two scores and caught a touchdown pass as the Hornets beat Rockford 39-12 to open the season.

Austin Jensen and Josh Agrambright both rushed for four touchdowns and a 62-12 blanchard Montebello win over Martin and a rematch of last year's eight player division one final.

and Monroe St.

Mary Catholic sophomore soccer player Carson Welker who had three goals and two assists and a seven to three win over Carlton Airport.

We're on

the soccer field today and the home team has the ball and is on the attack.

The ball makes it around to a forward from the home team who is onside and within the penalty area.

His shot just misses, goes wide for a goal kick.

However, just after the ball crossed the goal line, a player from the away team tackles the home team forward with excessive force.

What's the call?

Because excessive force was used, it's a red card for the away team player, which is an automatic ejection.

But because it happened after the ball crossed the goal line, and not at the time of the shot, it's still a goal kick for the away team, not a penalty kick for the home team.

Thanks, Paige.

There are lots of reasons to get in and stay in officiating.

Each week we hear from a current or former official in a segment called What's My Why.

This week we hear from Brady Driver, an MHSAA registered official with more than 20 years experience.

One, the opportunity to continue interacting with athletics and school districts and sports and being a part of educational athletics.

Two,

the thousands of student athletes that I get to see grow up in and through sports and then go on to great things in their lives.

And then three for me also to be able to have the joy of building lifelong friendships with multiple officials across these three sports and the opportunities to have been able to travel in some cases across the United States to officiate and also meeting some pretty incredible people through the circles of all football wrestling and lacrosse.

I would highly encourage if you have a desire to stay involved and get the best seat in the house every time, every game, every night to be an official.

It's one of the best things you'll ever do.

Now more than ever, we need officials.

If you're interested, go to the MHSAA website now to register and to check out other What's My Wise.

You've been listening to this week in high school sports powered by Michigan's Student Aid, a production of the MHSAA network.

Thanks for joining us here in the 1-800-CALL-SAM Studio.

I'm John Ross, and we'll be back next week.

All right, back here in Ironwood as Joe just shocked me.

I've got to get my bearings back.

Where are we, Joe?

Ironwood?

Oh, yes, we're still there.

We're at halftime, 20 to 6, Lake Linden over Ironwood.

Jason, do you know back up here in the press box?

Yeah, I did.

We're in halftime show.

our famous half-time show.

Jason, you're going to do more talking because Joe's got a mouth full of cookie.

Nice first half so far.

A couple of big plays by the lakes, but I know it is holding tough.

Yeah, for sure.

That's a great effort against a team like Lakeland.

I really like the way they're playing defense.

They're getting to the quarterback.

Yeah, like I said, the big play there was the killer in the second quarter.

You knew Lakeland was going to be a good team.

You don't want it to be a runaway.

It certainly hasn't.

Yeah.

Nice play for Arnewood's touchdown.

Cassage got the end of defense.

The defender tried to make a miss and slipped and fell.

And I'm sure Cassage, you and your wide open like that.

Those are probably the hardest catches to make.

There's nobody on you.

It seems like it's easier if you're covered and you're fighting for the ball.

But your wide open like that.

His eyes are wide open.

And he caught it and ran it in.

Nice catch by Cassage.

I

guess it was.

Yeah, just say a few words.

I'm almost done with the cookie.

I don't want you choking over

there.

That'll never happen.

Next one's first half.

Jason, I hear it really is hanging in there actually.

A couple of turnovers.

Lake Linda's had four penalties in that first quarter.

So I hear it was hanging in there doing a good job.

For sure.

I think if that kind of play out for the young guys, Pisco had a nice first half.

I thought A.G.

He had some nice plays there on defense too.

I just thought the defense looked really, really good.

Yeah, they did.

Unfortunately, they couldn't handle the first script kick.

It bounced off a crullo.

He was there.

And it bounced back into the oncoming legs.

And about three guys that pounced on it.

But unfortunately there, because then they scored, I think, on that possession.

But everyone's moving the ball at times.

Not as much excess as last week, which we didn't think they would against this Lakeland team, but you can just see that Lakeland has, they have a lot of weapons.

Oh yeah, you could see either one of the conference favorites, probably the conference favorites.

But at the same time, I'm sure they're having some conversations in that halftime, wherever

they

are.

You know, a lot of penalties, some fumbles, some focus issues.

Yeah, that was the truth.

Two fumbles?

Three?

Two fumbles?

Two fumbles?

Yeah,

Ironwood recovered both of them.

And the other thing is, you know, Ironwood's had a few penalties that moved them back a little bit too when they were making that one drive, which went back 10 yards.

But Ironwood, I think, played a very good game.

I think the one thing that I would say of Jason, me and Rob were talking about this, and the coach said last week when we talked to him before the game, do not let receivers get behind you.

And you saw that today about three times.

They got behind them.

Once they scored a touchdown, the other two were incomplete.

But they got behind you, and that always is a bad, bad thing.

Well, it's so hard with, like, when you know to defend it, because they run the ball, run the ball, run the ball, and then all of a sudden, they throw a pass, and, you know, you pull everybody in a little bit, because you want to stop their own, and all of a sudden, then they're throwing for 40 yards or whatever.

It's a tough thing to defend.

They could easily have a touchdown there at the end.

Tyler Axeber was wide open, got behind the defense.

and just his vertebrae.

You think those two would be in sync after, you know, brothers like that playing catch all their lives, but he overshot them about five, six yards, but that would have been a score easy for Lakeland in a little bit.

But like we said, 20-6 is not insurmountable.

No, it's not.

And Ironwood, I hope they have a few wrinkles in their offense coming in the second half.

There were a few plays that Justin Acke made some nice runs.

Broke through the line a little bit and had some nice runs, but

I don't know.

It'll be an interesting second half.

I am going to get the ball to start the second half.

I think it's pretty imperative they go down and score.

They don't

want to get this game too far out of hand and right down my 14.

They're doing

okay.

It's going to be interesting.

I want to see if they pass a little bit more.

I want to see if they come out and try to pass a little bit more.

Because they do have some speed on the outside and if Justin Acke has to pull it down, the thing is

We were talking about it when Justin goes back to pass.

Like Lyndon has enough confidence in their corners that they send five guys.

So there's two unblocked almost, you know.

First year quarterback

there.

It's tough but you're getting much pressure on you.

And nobody's open man.

Yeah.

At least you don't see anybody open.

There could be somebody wide open.

You're just watching these big guys coming in at you.

But no, a nice first half.

I went out on the field already.

They didn't have much to say.

Just saying, stick in there guys.

I'm sure that's what he said, and let's keep this game close and who knows what will happen.

Are you going down the Lambeau Field for the Wisconsin game?

Do you need somebody to carry in your camera or

anything?

No, I'm not.

You're not going?

Won't that be running clogged?

Well, yeah, they play this independent team from somewhere.

I don't even know.

West Bend, is it?

Yeah, maybe East

Bend.

Well you know college football is

feeling strong now and it's going to be interesting to see the season but you know we were talking this morning on our show about some of the ranked teams everything could change it's all guessing it's all guessing just like everybody else does and you could sometimes pick that sleeper that does something even about the NFC North too we were talking about that a little bit you don't know who's going to win the NFC North

You got guys that have won it before, Green Bay's won it many times, Lyons have been winning it, the Bears won it last year, right?

And every team's got issues.

Yeah, Green Bay's got a few issues they got to solve, but that'll be interesting to see.

Are you following the LSU story?

Yeah.

What do you think

about that?

Hopefully it's a one-time thing because they made a rule against it and all, but... Okay, so

the SEC was meeting today, right?

Yeah.

So what they come up with?

I didn't see what happened.

Oh, okay.

Well, first of all, the judge said they could.

The SEC said no.

The judge said yes.

We got to make sure we...

The Southeast Conference.

Not the Securities Exchange Conference.

Oh, right, right.

We got to

make sure we... The Southeast Conference.

Yes, and they don't want it to happen, but Lane Kiffin lobbied for it, and the judge said, hey, yeah, you can have them, and maybe they'll play that first game, but then maybe you'll hear that all of a sudden.

I think the president will step in, maybe.

Somebody asked the president to step in.

Maybe you should step in.

I

had a feeling, if it went to court, that the judge was going to... How can you say they can't?

Or is the judge for them?

We talked about this this morning too.

I don't think it matters where the judge was from.

A judge is going to say, where does it say that you have college eligibility?

You can't play.

It used to be you couldn't go out and earn money as a professional and come back up to college.

And now you're earning money as a college guy.

I don't think that has anything to do with it.

I think that's part of it.

I don't think so.

I'm going to argue with you at that point.

I think it's totally just garbage.

And I think those guys can make it to the pro.

So they decide, oh, let me go beat up on some college kids.

You know, I don't like it.

I don't like it at all.

Oh, I don't like it either.

It's just opening up a can of worms.

But how many cans of worms have been opened up in the last

couple years?

It depends on a fish or

not.

Well,

they should have made some rules about it.

Isn't it funny though guys in sports these days, it just seems like every sport is

just having these

issues.

If there's an opening to take advantage of, that's what

they're

doing.

That's what they're doing.

Well, just root for everybody to please OSU though.

That's all.

Yeah, for Clemson.

Go Clemson.

I got Clemson shirt.

Those teams in that conference even said as much as they're not going to play them.

So, they might not have any games.

So, is it a forfeit then?

Yeah, it would be a forfeit.

Well, you'd have the forfeit, but you get the satisfaction that LSU's not going to take the field unless they play their, you know, the cupcake games.

But maybe every team doesn't play them.

I don't know.

We'll see.

Kind of like Notre Dame, play the cupcake.

Cupcake to Wisconsin.

I told you, they have rice next week.

Yeah.

Which team is better?

Well, you know, I don't have a racist record from last year in front of you, but I'm sure they're probably one of the top four and six teams in the country.

I think they did.

I think they won four games last year.

So now they played battle ball, volleyball.

Remember battle ball?

No, I don't remember battle ball.

What you're talking about?

We're about a minute away from the second half.

Ironwood down 20 to six, but really hanging in there strong.

Rod, what are your predictions for the second

half?

Jason hung up on us already.

He didn't want to go

back on to the field.

Yep Lights are on now that long-year field Red Devils.

They got to get the wall.

They get the ball second half control the kickoff That's first thing and then they got to go down score.

They got to go score this series.

Okay, I've got you

and Do you think they keep running it like they were?

You stay with that

There you know, they're picking up yardage on and not every play but they're getting positive yardage on a lot of carries

Yeah, I would keep the running game going.

Right now, there's only two guys touching the ball on the offense.

That's all we had last year.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And so do you get some other guys coming from the side?

I mean, like, you know, maybe Legallo maybe coming across gets an inside handoff or something like that.

They just added three minutes to the clock.

We can waste three minutes.

We do it in the morning.

Why don't they just put 15 minutes on the clock to start with?

That's my big beef.

They put 15 minutes on the clock, and then it goes down to like a minute, and then they stop the clock.

Well, maybe the refs are getting a burger at the concession stand.

Sometimes that happens.

They're hungry too, you know.

So I was all set to start football.

Now I'm backing up to... Well, we'll ask Jason then.

Jason, what's the key to the second half?

Since Rod doesn't want to give me an actual answer.

I thought you were there and keep the winning game going.

Oh.

I think I should get the passing game going.

I don't know.

Yeah, I'm kind of with you on that.

I think you've got to mix it up a little bit.

Get one of those quick guys on the outside.

Who else can throw?

Who else?

There's a quarterback on there, Ironwood, because Justin X got some speed.

That kid's fast.

I know him on the outside.

Did they do that last week?

Did they put Justin X?

I don't know if they put Justin X out wide.

What?

Okay, I'll say, don't pass when they have to pass.

Pass before it's a...

You know what I'm

saying?

Like the first down.

You don't have to throw a 40 yard pass, you can throw a 5 yard pass.

So don't pass under obvious passing situations because that's when they're going to blitz you.

And I'm kind of with you on that.

I think the short pass too because they are Russian 5 guys.

If you can hit one of your receivers maybe out in the flat, hit them out in the flat, let them catch them all, have one guy block for them.

You could always break one.

You might see a lot of room in there.

Yeah, exactly.

You got the five guys inside.

One guy takes this guy down field, another guy goes with him, all of a sudden it's one on one.

You never know.

We'll see what happens.

That's right.

All we can do is predict up here.

That's all we can do.

Next week, more football from

Besmer.

Michigan, that is.

As Joe makes his debut at the Besmer press box.

Yeah.

Do they have food there?

Do you love

him?

I'm going to try to get him a pass.

I'm going to try to sneak him in.

Sneak in the wall, sneak in the fence by the scoreboard, I'll sneak you in

there.

Okay.

They have food in the booth?

Food

in the booth?

Yeah,

well, yeah.

They have candy, don't they?

Yes, but candy.

Well, they have like little snacks.

They do.

They don't have sweet rolls, but they have snacks.

Well, they might have sweet rolls now, but I said it.

Yeah.

Well, maybe we could sneak it into existence, maybe a Dairy Queen or something.

Hey.

Jason, I like your thinking.

Are you gonna be there next week?

Yeah.

All right.

Three cinnamon rolls right here.

I'll never forget the time we were going down early was playing Cameron We're picked up the rice lake football game on the on the radio as a way to Cameron half-time came along Dairy Queen brought the guys a meal as part of their advertising thing really and they say hey here we go That's what we need to do.

We've got a chicken strip basket here and stuff

like that.

We can get some sponsors.

Let's do it.

Yeah

All right, now we're safe for the kickoff.

Ah, thanks Jason All right Ball is teed up.

That was a fast three minutes.

I guess we can talk for

three

minutes,

can't we?

We can battle for three minutes.

I don't know if I was

talking.

Yeah, well,

you think he's

gonna

squib kick this one?

Yes, yes

Number

11

is ready for

it.

Squibber to 11 and

about to pop him again.

Levin was ready and he could not control it and it bounced off of Carulo and back towards the Lake Linden on rushers and they were able to fall on it.

So Lake Linden will take over first in 10 on their own.

Where is it?

Right at the 50 yard line,

the

other market.

That is twice.

Yeah and then they're keying on it because they kicked it the other time.

and he caught the ball in the air so

hmm

that's a mistake I can't make them they're

tough ones

first

in

10

for the lakes all right at the 50-yard line the bowl under center yeah I think David Tillo is in there and off goes to number five that's her

Castillo with a big hit on him that

time.

You know what we didn't do Joe?

I

got about 13 carries for Justin Eck at 49 yards and four carries for 11 yards for Blake Peterson.

Not a real big first half, but they did ball control for a while.

So we'll see what happens in the second half here now.

Lake said 145 yards on the ground and 21 carries and 46 yards passing three for six with two touchdowns.

191 yards to Lawson's for the lakes.

Here is uh

number eight

that's Tyler

Axford.

needed six and he got seven and

another first down for the lake that's their ninth rushing one by a penalty

and the ball moves to

the lake

uh the ironwood 39 yard line

first in 10 lakes just on the way here in the third quarter 20 to six 10 57 ago

i would

was supposed to have the ball here but a fumble on a kickoff and uh on a split kick and uh gives the ball to uh lake linden

first in ten the ball under center and of course and did i would fall on it yes yes

wow big fumble landed johnson with the recovery that time

all

right so that was

Humble

by LeBow and

51

recovered that one.

Landon Johnson, yep, nice recovery.

Good pass brush that time.

Certainly was.

He got through there and wrestled the ball away from the quarterback so a good job.

Here we go Ironwood now heading towards the north end zone.

Justin Ecclone in the shot done.

Go straight ahead, you've got some running room, break the tackle, and looking for one more block behind it.

And this could be a lot, not maybe a late hit, but not really called.

Justin there with a nice carry.

Took it from the Ironwood 43 all the way to the Lake Linden 42.

Pick

up a 5'10", 16 yards.

That was a beautiful run that time.

Certainly was.

One block though, one block.

One block, he would have been gone.

just could not get by that last guy but they moved the chains and ball now on the lake linden 42 yard line same formation basically just the neck up the middle this time he's tripped up getting his hand in there early was number 15 for lake linden that is grody

rust

that ups up the whole the whole operation yeah yep

Pick up maybe a yard for Justin because he fell forward.

So it makes up a second and nine.

Now it's a tight formation.

Peterson in the shotgun, he's going to get it.

Looking for a rumor on the left and he's taking the guy for a ride for a while.

A full yard.

Took

Brady Axford for the variety out on by the shirt, pulling him down the sidelines.

Pick up a what, maybe four?

All right, let's get this first down guys.

All on the Lake Linden 37 yard line, 9.52 to go third quarter, 20 to six.

Lake Linden out in front.

As they break the huddle, let's see the formation this time.

Peterson goes out as a slot on the right.

Chestnut Cologne in the shotgun, trips to the...

Right quick pass the

cast.

Oh, he's gonna be wrapped

up.

He didn't need that spin.

He just needed to go forward at least he would have got three yards

Yeah At that point you take what you get and set up for Tony try to spin out of it and by the time he got off his spin Yep, there was four other leaks right on them.

Yep.

I like the play call quick pass,

but just go forward But that's all

right, so they lost about yep three yards on that carry.

Yeah in that pass play So brings up a fourth and about

seven

Well, do

you go for this or do you punch and put Lakeland in the hole?

Looks like they're going to go for this.

I think you got to go for it.

Wow.

That's the

neck.

That's the pass.

Looking, looking, looking across the middle.

It goes to Cassage.

Did he get

that?

I

think he's going to get the first down.

Yep.

Yes, he did.

Boy, they needed seven.

He ran

it over.

He ran it over.

Eight yard ropes.

Yep.

Started on the right sideline.

Lakeland inside the field and cut it across the middle

and yeah, he's got first down

Yeah,

that was First

down by passing.

I think that's their first first down by passing isn't it that was pretty play though.

Yes So

you set it down for the Red Devils

All on the Lakeland and 31 yard

line

Justin that could fake the handoff to legalo, and he's gonna keep it on the right side And he's gonna get six yards just the play they ran in the first quarter when the gobble lines up behind the garden and shoots back in motion goes behind

Justin that fixed the

handoff and

Justin that

keeps it on the right side It fooled Lake Lyndon pretty good the first quarter not so

good this time.

Yeah, but six yards good carry though six

yards.

Yep Second in six

Ball on the Lakeland in 26.

Peterson and Justin Ek in the shotgun.

Snap goes to Justin Ek, quick pitch out to Peterson.

He's got room on the right side and he's met it.

It's close to the first down.

I don't know if he got it or not.

He was hit hard.

Looks like a first down.

Yep, they're going to give

it to him.

Yep, another first down.

Need is

four.

Peter's

in a 6 foot 175 pounds sophomore as well.

It's a hard hit, but it's right up.

Same formation, Justin Eck, he's going to keep it off the right side and brings the tackle and he'll pick up about three yards.

Justin Eck is a tough runner.

Yes, and the thing is,

he doesn't

go down

after the

first hit.

No, he doesn't.

And

then

the thing about him is he's kind of tall so he falls forward and he still gets that yard yard and a half no matter what so That can make a big difference second and eight as the Red Devils break the huddle seven minutes left here in the third quarter Just like inches outside

the red zone Just an act Peterson up the middle and did he get this you know if he got to the right

Whoa, there could have been a flag there.

Whistle had blown and Tyler Axford still

had

arms around Peterson and threw him to the ground.

I was kind of shocked.

I mean, he didn't whip him to the ground.

But

you looked at the ref leg.

Yeah, I didn't mean that.

Yeah.

Well,

that's the man if you meant it,

you

did it.

Yeah, that was close to being a, yeah, unnecessary.

Easily a bit of flag.

Third and eight ball right at the 20 yard line.

The Red Devils die all up here.

This could be a passing play Receivers put out wide left and right Justin back to pass and looking that cast is wide open on the left Didn't see him keeps it himself and he may get the first down No, he's gonna be short now.

We got a point like you

were so right on that.

Oh

Nobody guarded cast

on the right side.

Nobody was out there.

That's a touchdown.

Yes

Could be a face mask

I'd like to see that on the honor nope

on a replay

and looks on their pointing toward ironwood a little bit so the block or what uh no what is that call a personal foul blow to the head

oh is that

a 10-year penalty I am I know it's

First and

goal Peterson Waits for walking to develop and he goes straight ahead and he gets inside the five

Down

to about the four so

it's a

pickup of two And that is a so on that previous run Did you get the first down yes?

Okay, and then by running right now by penalty

Well, uh, did the penalty give him the first down or did they get to run on the first down?

I forget

the penalty game.

The first up.

Okay.

It was a yard and a half short.

Mark that by first on the penalty.

Peterson looking for room and he was wrapped up

with the tackle.

Can you get out of this one?

He's still going.

Oh, he's wrapped up and lost.

He pushed

back to the 12 yard line.

He was, he tried to go left.

He got hit by a

defender spun out of

there and then he tried to bring it back around

the right and just

end up

Going backwards, so brings up a let's see they were aware on the four so a loss of eight Mm-hmm So makes it a third now and goal from the 12 yard line Well go back and run that pass play again that you ran a couple

play yeah, we're at the jet doesn't get guarded over there

Passes with a wide left

Yeah, I think we have

like linen tall on time.

Oh,

all right time on the field.

Oh, are you

gonna

call it?

Yep.

441 to go third quarter 20 to six lakes.

We'll be back in 30

seconds.

All right back here and anyway Red Devils facing a huge third and goal now from the 12-yard line They had it down inside the four-yard line and lost

eight yards as Peterson tried to versus field Lakes were

right there to make sure he didn't get back around the right side of these initially headed cars the left side

I missed it by only 40 number points.

Oh well 40 points

are 50

whatever numbers that's what I meant

Justin Eck, Peterson.

Dr. Pass is Justin Eck and he's under a heavy rush and he can be wrapped up.

He may have lost another yard here.

Yep.

Goes back to the 15.

Looks like he lost a 2.

Now it's 4.

They went from first in goal on the 6th to fourth in goal on the 15th.

And Justin Eck, no time to find a receiver on that

play.

Or 10 to go here third quarter 20 to six red devils need a score here Keep up with

these lakes

Just a neck and Peterson and the shotgun Cassage stood out wide left at the pass.

He's gonna throw the end zone and this is intercepted and this is Axford and he is

We've got a fennel on the low lake, so it's coming back.

But Axworth did intercept it.

That was number five.

Brady Axworth.

That was just a whole pass there, you know.

Lakes had everybody back on it.

A lot of guys back

on it.

Somebody down at the 15 there, Rod.

OK, we have an injury on the field.

Yeah, not sure who it is right now.

I think it's going to be a block in the back.

That one's Peterson.

Yeah, Blake Peterson.

This is a

panel we on Lake Linden was a block in

the

back.

This will push him back.

It's gonna be a spotball.

Actually brought it out to about the 30 yard length.

Let's see where the panel he was and where they spotted from.

They are marching back towards the Lake Linden.

Whether at the whole line and nine there like back.

I

take the

nine-year line, so

The

legs will

start first in ten on their own ten yard line Blake

Peterson

Sitting on the bench now

Hopefully he's

okay So

here we go it's up the name of defense now to Stop this lakes offense

It's in the lake's worst field position of the evening, and Ashford's got an opening.

He's at the 40, cuts it back, and now he's wrapped up.

But not until he gets inside Iowa Territory, but that was

a 40,

42-yard run by Brodie Axford.

You have

higher wood credit for not giving up on it though,

because he had everybody beat.

Yes, he

did.

Cassage caught up to him, slowed him down.

Two other guys came back and made the tackle, but a lot of yardage on that one.

Actually it was more, it's like a 44-yard

line.

First in 10 lakes, well that's one way to get out of a deep hole in the size of the field.

First in 10 lakes on the Red Devil 46 yard line.

This is Tyler Axford, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20 and he is gone and in two plays the lakes go 90 yards.

Well that's how they play though.

Wow.

That is the type of team they are and I think Ironwood may be a little disgruntled that they couldn't put the ball in from the five foot yard line when they were down there and just lost yardage and now giving up two big plays and well puts lakes up 26 to 6

right now.

I'll

make it 26 to 6 317 to go here in the third quarter is the time of the score And the lakes will most likely go for 2 as they have I think I've ever seen the lakes kick an extra point and all the years I've been Watching them Eagle under center

Brady acts with the deep back.

And the handoff is going to go to number 10.

And is he going to get in?

He will.

That is.

That's the new running back.

Yeah.

Alfred Milky.

Yep.

The two-point conversion.

And that makes the score.

Lakeland in 28th.

Bairwood 6th.

With 317 to go here in the third quarter, we'll take a 30-second break.

We await the lakes kickoff 28 to 6 now 317 to go third quarter and Joe you said it during the break first and goal on the six To not scoring and then giving up a lake's touchdown.

Yep giving up but right like scored in two plays It will 90 yards in two plays

Well, you know the other thing about it too is this young team higher what's got really does give you a lot of hope for what they're doing with this program

I mean, I know Lake Lyndon is a powerhouse, a Missile Powerhouse team.

They're going to get their scores.

They're going to get their points.

They've got weapons all over the place.

You've got to keep up with them.

Yeah.

And, you know, not getting that touchdown, but they played some stealth defense.

Now it's time for hire.

We just keep their heads up and play hard.

Okay, we've got a new kicker in there for Lake Lyndon.

This ball is going to go out of bounds,

I believe, and it will.

Perfect.

Doing the kicking for Lake Lyndon that time was Aaron

Cloning.

Falling

out of bounds at about the 26 yard line, they'll bring it out to the 30.

And

that's where the Red Devils will start.

Is it the 30 or the 25

or I look like he's

standing at the 25 right?

I thought it was.

I thought it was.

Yeah, he's got him.

He's 35.

Oh, midfield.

No, he just keeps walking up.

He's like, where do I go?

He was well he was waiting to make sure I knew what took the penalty.

Oh, of course I would

yeah

Yeah

All right, so first and ten red devils ball on their own 35-yard line and they start over again with the you got a score here Late in the third quarter just the neck that leg all of the bottle the ball picks it up and Straight ahead you'll pick up maybe two yards

Yeah,

the fumble threw the timing off on that play.

Yeah.

Now

there's like Linden and team, you can see why they're really, I mean, they had their backs

against

a little bit against Tiger with that six yard line and they tightened up their defense and, you know, made some big plays and that just kind of turned the tide.

But see if we can score here.

Second

and eight.

Two of the Red Devils ball on their own 37-year-old and actually more like second and nine I suppose just like back to pass he's gonna air those got a guy out there And this is number one legato That was a nice play, but boy legato took a shot.

Yeah

on the sideline But after 25 yards or 20 yards

It was like a 10-yard pass to Kassage and he immediately flipped it back to a trailing true legato and he picked up another about 15 yards on that one.

So overall it was what a 5, 10, 15, 20, 21-yard gain.

That was a sweet

play.

Yes it was.

First in

10.

Just the neck alone in the shotgun Just the neck straight ahead and he gets through the first line of defense and then he's met by Tyler Axford,

but he does pick up about four

yards on that carry

147

to go third quarter 28 to six Lake

Linden

Reddell is on the move again in Lakeland and Territory.

Boy, they've shown that they can move the ball.

Yes, they have.

They just cannot, cannot finish these drives with scores.

That's exactly it, Rod.

Just neck in the shotgun, straight ahead and he'll get positive yardage.

Maybe two yards.

Was third and seven, looks like maybe a second

and seven, now a third and five.

And four.

28 to 6.

That's the red devil break the huddle.

Yep, got to get positive yardage here.

Even if it's a 3 yard, 2 yard game, you got to get positive yardage.

This is a tight formation.

Both ends are in tight.

Just neck and the shotgun.

Now they're going to call a pass out of this one.

Just neck looking, looking, looking.

There's no one out there.

Keeps it himself.

Well, he'll get... Yep, 3 yards.

Yeah.

Making their man to

go forth home

Big play here

another big how many big

plays I know yeah, it's just one of those things where when you're young like this.

These are big momentum builders.

Yeah

fourth and two ball on the lake linden

35 yard line 13 seconds left before halftime they might let it run down

yeah they might let it go i think they have time well the back judge has his hand up let's see they only get to the quarter and it will so they will talk about this between quarters

Jump around, jump around.

I'm jumping around.

I

thought for sure Matt Agee would be up there leading the crowd.

The crowd's not buying into us though.

No, they're not jumping around right now.

All right, fourth and two for the Red Devils as we start quarter number four.

As they head towards the school and there was a bobble snap.

And that threw the playoff and Peterson ended up losing a yard.

And the

lakes turned back the Red Devils on that

drive.

You

know, Peterson

comes limping off.

That's the thing.

I mean, I know I'm not trying to be critical, but these are plays that you have to get that yardage.

You have to keep those drives moving.

But this young team is really showing some resilience.

This is a beautiful job they're doing out there today.

And

number 27 coming in late in the game.

Do they have eight on the field?

Let's see, one, two, three, four, five, six, yeah, okay.

So first and 10 lakes on their own 37 yard line.

And this is Brody Axford, and he's gonna pick up nine yards.

Lakes only ran five

plays in that

third

quarter, but we went for a touchdown.

Yeah that tackled by Legallo

right there.

One of the juniors.

I

rode once again one senior

and five

juniors and the rest are sophomore and freshman.

So

you

know where the glare from the lights on the window makes it a little bit harder.

Yeah I'm sitting low here I'm down low so I'm okay.

I'm positioned.

your position great.

Yeah, I might have to step outside and do the rest of the game.

I don't know.

I mean, it's not that bad, but it's still looking hard to see.

Lebo was the quarterback and we got a timeout.

Lakeland will take a timeout.

We'll take a break as well.

28 to 6.

Lakeland in the open front.

11-04 to go in the ball game.

All right back here in ironwood again jump around playing on the loudspeaker Got me hopping around the press box.

Oh, you're out of breath.

You want me working

on my dance steps?

Second in one Lake Linden Axler breaks about four tackles five tackles and he gets the first on Oh, I'll tell you what that number five is a powerful runner

He is but you know the thing is to his ironwood defense is tired

I mean, they've been out there a long time and they've been playing hard.

Pistol with the tackle downfield.

Haven't heard his name a lot.

You heard it in the first quarter, but not too much in the rest of the game tonight.

They're doing a good job of blocking him.

But I'd like to see a turnover right now.

Everyone's getting the ball back.

Well, they've had a couple in the first quarter.

Yeah.

They had one in the third, didn't they?

Yeah, because they kicked that onside kick that we got it back.

Oh, yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

That's right.

That's right.

And no, it's a pass from Lebo in the overshot, a wide open.

Tyler Axford.

I'm

not going to say it because

you know what I'm going to say.

Yep,

I know what you're going to say.

He was

got behind the guy again.

I

mean, he was 10 yards.

You beat him by 10 yards.

You got to just pay attention to your guy running with the different colored jersey on.

That's got to be frustrating for coach Lane too, you know, he's watching that he's like Probably getting pretty frustrated when you see that plays.

I mean Being young is one thing but letting it happen over and over, you know, you can't let that happen

right second and ten ball on the red devil 46 yard line legal under the under center

Handoff goes to Brady Axford and he'll go straight ahead.

He'll get close to the first down.

I'm gonna give him nine on that.

Yeah Karulo with the tackle

Well big down right here hold him on third down.

Oh

third and three so he only got seven

Third

and three five nine fifty one clock moving here

Fourth

quarter all on the Red Devil 39 yard line hit the Red Devil defense can force a foreign out We go handoff straight ahead.

Oh

I think they got it.

Yep.

Yep, and that was number number

Number

11.

Number 10.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, number 10.

Sorry

about that.

That's his name much.

That was milky.

He did three, got four, another first down.

That's the twelfth first down for the lakes and they continue to possess the law.

We're just about at the nine minute mark here in the fourth quarter.

First in 10 on the Red Devil 36 yard line.

Meebo under center.

Axford backs in the eye formation behind him.

And this is Brady Axford around the right side.

Cuts it back to the middle.

It's a sprint to the goal line and he will go

in.

36

yard run

for Axford and the Lakes.

put six more on the board.

Some big plays here in the second half.

So that makes the score what 34?

Quarter six more, 34 to six.

That gets

quick.

Lakes will go for two.

As we eat for them to break the huddle now they break the huddle and the bow will go under center He's got milky and quick a new running back to the back to number 17 goes in motion And off goes to milky and he'll walk it in

I mean, I know the game's not over yet.

There's still 10 minutes left, but this has been kind of a well-played game by Iyer.

What I know is score doesn't really show it.

But, you know, if you just listen to the score, but if you watch this game, seen a lot of good plays, a lot of opportunities Iyer would miss.

They had a few chances when they were first to go up to four, first to go up to nine, and both times come out empty.

Yeah, those are huge.

Here's a kickoff end over end.

Goes to, who is this?

I can't tell who had the ball.

Cassage,

I think.

Cassage

back deep?

Yep.

He brings it back to the 33 yard

line.

And

that's where the Red Devils will start.

First and 10.

Let's see if Peterson makes it back out there.

I don't think he's going to.

I think they're going to save

him though.

Dealing

with a bad

ankle looks like he's lifting

pretty bad.

I

expect

just to duck.

Justin has to carry the load again.

Receiver is out.

Trips to the

right.

One to the left.

Justin is in the shotgun.

And he's going to take it.

No, he's going to take it up ahead.

And then he cut it out to the right.

He's got some running room around the right side.

Picked up the first

down.

Look up above.

I would say 12 yards on that carry.

Another first down to the Red Devils

yep

ball to the 48 yard line 745 to go Be in the ballgame at Devils trailing twenty thirty six to

six,

but Played inspired football.

Yes,

they are drips on this side rod

See information see what Justin it wants to do this time

Just straight

ahead and the

The linebacker number eight kind of cheated up to the line of scrimmage and he chased Justin McDonough.

I saw him moving up.

He anticipated that play.

And Axford caught him

behind as he

tried to go around

the

left side.

Might have picked up a yard though.

Yeah, you caught that too.

That's a good catch.

Yeah, you saw him come up?

Yeah.

And the other thing is they got five guys in the box.

Yeah.

They're not even worried about the whiteouts.

They're just going to, they know Justin Mc is the guy at house.

Yes.

I'm going to ask this guy what...

Hang on

a

minute.

Oh, okay.

Here we go.

At the line of scrimmage here, we got second and nine for Ironwood and two receivers to the far side.

Snap is low, fumbled in the backfield.

Ironwood just can't get back on it.

Couldn't recover it and there we go.

Link lived and gets the fumble.

And that ball just seems to have played.

This one gentleman for Ironwood, he just can't cut

it.

Alright, so the lakes will take over.

First in ten on the Red Devil, where they spotten this one.

The 37 yard line?

37 yard line?

I didn't see the play, Joe.

I was talking to the guys

in the back.

He snapped it, it was low, so it went by the quarterback and then it went

Another guy was behind him.

He couldn't pick it up.

He kicked it.

All right So first and ten legs I would expect them to have maybe a couple of subs in there Let's see it looks like number one is Build a quarterback.

Yes, he hands off to 17.

That's a new ball carrier and that

is a

open barrel

Yep, so a nice little gain there for Lake Linden.

I

didn't read that.

That's okay.

I'll share it with you later.

Okay.

Pickup of about 12 yards, I believe,

on

that carry and another first down.

That is the 14th first down for the lakes.

I may

have even missed

one

or

two.

Yeah, and I hear what's got right now.

I got I hear what has 10 first downs.

So not a bad, you know what I mean?

They're moving the ball.

Yeah,

it's not scoring.

Yep.

Yep That's just kind of shot themselves in the foot as they got down inside the scoring territory red zone as we call it Type formation and let's see.

Yeah, they have a new quarterback also What about for Lake Linden right now is?

Cody

Fortin and the carry

was

I think it was Lucas Axford that time that carried the ball.

Not much of a game though, just a couple yards, but keeping by the end zone here.

4-20 to go in the ballgame, like Lyndon on the Red Devil.

Now it's time for little victories, you know, you got to hold them out of the end zone here, get some momentum.

I think another score here is going to be a running clock, but we're going to be down to three minutes here

shortly.

He was Fortin under center and he bobble the ball.

I was falling it.

I

can't see

I'm looking

There's a pile.

He fell back on it 23 got it back.

All right

That was recovered by Bowie Fortin.

Yep.

He's the

new quarterback.

Yep

What does he see?

He's a sophomore.

Yeah

So it's good good idea to give these young kids some playing time over there, too, you know, oh, yeah,

I mean they're gonna

they got

They'll

have some easy games along the way, but they're going to have some tough ones.

Yep.

I can imagine the Lake Linden Norway game will be good, the Lake Linden Crystal Falls game, Lake Linden North Central game.

Those will be good ball games.

Yep.

And we'll see Lake Linden again when they come to Besmere late in the year.

Yeah.

Here's a pitch back to number 17, and he's wrapped up right away.

Yep, that is token

of error.

Nice.

Evan Zaconia with a nice tackle.

So fourth down.

Now let's get this ball back.

Fourth and eight.

Under three minutes to go here in the fourth quarter.

A few substitutions in for Ironwood right now.

Number 28, which is Quinn Hamston.

He's in there.

Getting some young legs in there.

Number

five, Parker Jeske.

He's in there also.

I got to learn to bring my bucklers.

So you can really pick

them up.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

I gotta do that.

Yep.

Next week.

Fourth and eight for the Lakes.

So pass.

Barrel has a guy out there and it is going to be a touchdown.

And boy, am I going to be able to see who caught that ball?

I can tell you right now.

Wow.

The guy running with

this.

30.

He's talking to the coaches.

Is it Rusk?

Barrel through the pass.

I think Brady, by Conan?

No, PA guy said number 15 Rusk.

I'm going to go with that one.

I'm not sure.

He said Brody Rusk, I'm going to go with that.

I'd go with it.

And there was a lot of

20.

And off for the two point conversion and did they get in?

Yep.

Yes All right, so the score is

not gonna indicate how this game was played today 44 44

to six we'll be back in 30 seconds with the Lakeland and kickoff

Hello everybody, it's your friends down at Martholard, Hanna, Toyota.

Labor Day is right around the corner and that means a few things.

An end of summer and the start of fall, the end of fantasy baseball and the start of fantasy football,

and it also means the end of

of the model year

in the start of huge savings.

So stop down this Friday, Saturday, or Monday only to collect your $5 in free lottery tickets and take advantage of our $500 down payment assistant on any vehicle on the lot during our Labor Day sale.

At Marthaler Haunted Tour of Ashton, we're just like the view, the service is superior.

All right, back here in Hollywood, 44 to 6.

Well, not that it matters, but we're going to have running clock.

Yeah, yeah,

what do

we got?

217 left now.

I'm gonna,

you know, I say it over and over again and I said it this Ironwood played them tough with a very young team.

I don't think they give up some big plays But like Linda's gonna be right there, you know, they might even go down the stage I mean, they got a nice looking team.

They're loaded with seniors.

I mean

Yeah,

they took their lumps about two years ago.

I

remember that they were getting beat almost

Not every game, but they were a lot of sophomore starters.

There's a short kick and the receiver for Ironwood falls on it at the 39

yard line and that's where the Red

Devils start.

First and 10 on their own 39

yard line

and it doesn't get any easier for Ironwood.

Next week they host Norway.

That'll be a tough game too.

Yes it will.

But you know what?

You can build on something like this today though.

The plays, they had chances to score.

They were there.

They were there.

You've got to somehow get that ball, of course, in the end zone.

And that's the key, of course.

That's the ball.

And they just couldn't do it.

First, the goal a couple of times.

They moved the ball, they had some good drives, and this could not score.

And you build on that.

You're right, Joe.

You look for those.

And look, this was Justin.

Oh, one guy that tripped up at the 45-yard

line.

How did that one guy get his shoe

laces?

Justin it picks up.

I think

we have a game.

Yes Another first down for the Red Devils

and we're down to a minute 15 seconds probably time for two more plays.

Yep Yep As the Red Devils break the huddle Red Devils will fall to one and one Lake Linden will drop to Or go to two and oh and they play municine next week.

Well, I'm

municine

Having a rough year to start with

as

well

Justin Ek on a

keeper

and he will

bring it in for a touchdown.

Justin Ek

on a

nine yard

run and the Red

Devils

put six on the board.

Nine

yard run and the Red Devils 11 seconds to go here in the ball game.

Yep.

Put six more.

Why not?

Looking for little things, right, Joe?

That's right.

You build on these little things.

That's right.

And they didn't give up.

They played hard.

They played hard football today.

They played a good team.

Very hard.

Red Devils will go for two.

Justin Ek and Karulo in the backfield.

Paul's going to go to Karulo.

He picks it up off the ground and he got in for the two point conversion.

So

two point conversion is good.

We'll take a

30-second break.

Come back with the red double kickoff after this message.

What does it mean to be locally owned and operated?

For Cinex, it means everything.

It means that we know if you take your coffee to go, or if you like to stay a while.

It means we've helped Little Leagues get jerseys and local festivals get funding.

It means we know what our communities need.

So you'll always leave Senex with a full tank, full of snacks, or full of smiles.

Or all of the above.

And that means the world to us.

Senex.

Powered locally.

All right, back here in Iowa, Red Devils score on a nine yard run by Justin X, set up by, what, a 36 yard?

Yeah.

36, 37 yard, yeah.

Karulo to Kassage.

True will showing it for fresh money through a pretty good pass.

Mm-hmm All right, so the Red Devils will kick off Lake Linden will get the ball and they will all that will probably do it once the clock starts I don't think they're gonna how much time less 11 seconds I don't think Lake Linden even have to set up a play.

No, I mean might squib it though Luke likes that word squib.

Yes

Just going the ball teed

up

Now you got me coughing Joe.

That's that there is a kick along the Really didn't leave the ground.

It was kind of a not so much a slow was a squibber that one about 30 yards

They got three seconds rod,

but that shoes is right.

That should not stop clock.

That's it The clock wouldn't stop for that

So that will do it.

Final score tonight from Long Air Field.

Lakeland and Hubble 44, Ironwood 14.

We'll take a five minute break.

We'll come back with stats.

I don't know if Coach Lane will come up and talk to us.

He may, he never know.

Depends on his mood.

Then I saw he's talked to coaches but I know it's hard to talk after a loss.

So, we'll take a break and we'll come back with stats and comments

regarding this football game.

44 to 14, Lakeland in,

back in five.

All right,

back here in Iowa, final score tonight, the Lake Lindenhubble Lakes 44, and Red Devils 14.

A hard-fought game.

We talked about this.

We knew Lake Linden was going to be a very tough foe, and they showed tonight.

They have a lot of weapons.

Actually, and one of their weapons, I asked the film rep here, the assistant coach for

for Lake Linden.

On the first carry of the game, Josh Davatilla, who I think is probably one of the better running backs on this team and in the UP.

He had one carry for 10 yards, he went over that ankle.

So hopefully he's seen more action later this year, but take him out

of

the play and they didn't skip a beat.

Yeah, they got a good solid team and everyone knew that coming in.

They knew they had a tough team coming in and

And

it was one of those things where, you know, you play these powerhouses and they got their team already, you know, loaded with seniors, guys who played together for years, and you got a young Ironwood team.

I think when they played tonight, they had a very, what's the word I'm looking for?

They

had a game plan to win this team.

Yeah, and they really played hard.

They really played hard.

It was scoreless in the first quarter,

and

that was a big thing.

And also some big plays, I think didn't, I think they scored most of their scores on big plays, wasn't it?

I don't think they really had like a drive where they beat it up down, I mean.

They had some big plays to get down and they had some scoring plays maybe five, ten yards away, but they had big plays to get in those positions.

And I think the backbreaker in this game,

It was 20 to 6.

I would had first and goal on the six yard

line.

Ended up turning the ball over.

They ended up being the fourth and goal from the 14.

And two plays, Lake Linden goes 96 yards for a score.

I agree.

That takes the wind out of your sails.

Yeah.

And when you have a young team, and I think Coach Lane is doing a good job keeping these kids' heads up though, because they went down and they scored.

And before the end of the game, making it kind of

You know, a couple scores against Lake Linden.

It's nothing to hang your head about.

This team is pretty much going to be one of the teams in this conference that are going to go state.

And you could pick them, Norway.

You have the other teams.

What is it?

Lake Linden is it?

Crystal Falls, Lake Linden, Norway, and North Central.

Yeah, there's some strong teams.

And Ireland has a tough road ahead.

But this is learning.

This is learning.

And when you play football in this conference, you take your bumps and bruises.

but you learn from them and I'm sure the coach is going to have a lot of one of the biggest things I saw tonight besides some of the turnovers on the onside kick and stuff will just let receivers still get behind you.

That was one thing that's coach stressed and they're still letting them get behind them.

The score could have been even worse than what it was because the receivers got behind the defense.

And the quarterback just over through the receivers, over through the year.

And so it could have been worse than that.

And it could have been.

And it could have been closer because Ironwood Blue cuts some opportunities.

Coach Lane is going to the locker room.

But yeah, I get it.

It's frustrating.

Hopefully we would have got to talk to him about it a little bit because there's some good things to look at this.

But it's always frustrating when you lose no matter what.

You know, it doesn't matter if it's to a state team or a bad team.

That's

right.

You don't go into a game expecting to lose.

You expect to win every game.

And yeah, just a couple of things didn't go their way.

They forced some fumbles, but they had fumbles.

They gave fumbles right back to Lake London.

And against a team like that, you just can't make those mistakes.

When you think about it, you give them four extra possessions.

Four or five.

Because if you don't fumble the outside kick,

If you don't fumble the ball in the backfield, that's four positions.

You've had the ball.

And that's time off the clock.

That's keeping the ball in their hands because they're a strong offensive team.

I mean, there's a lot of things that happen.

But you've got to give them credit.

They played an excellent game.

Like you said, the road isn't any easier.

No, Norway's coming in next week.

And Norway's, you know, they scored 100 points.

They've scored 100, and they've given up two.

Yeah.

So

they have a good

offense, and they have a great defense.

Yeah, solid.

Not much for stats for me here, because really it was a just neck for 27 carries for 125 yards and was it Richardson?

Nine carries for 13.

That's it.

Yeah, I mean they had a few passing yards, a touchdown pass, which was nice.

They had a beautiful hook and ladder play.

That was a nice play.

With those two plays, but not enough.

Not enough tonight.

All right.

I'm talking and doing my math at the same time.

I didn't think I was that talented, but

I are talented.

Well, I saw

you

season veterans, you know,

it's according to my stats career.

I got

according to what you've got.

I got number five.

I shouldn't know his name by heart.

By now, I've said enough time Brady Axford.

He had 20 carries for 244 yards.

His brother Tyler Axford had six carries for 64 yards.

Yeah, Josh Davatillo who had one carry and went out with an injury you had one carry for for ten yards and then number four got a care nut number four.

What am I looking at number one?

That's the Michael Bull.

He had three carries for 30 and number 10 One carry for four.

I'm gonna wrap it up.

These are the subs that came in late in the game 359 yards on the ground for Lake Linden Another 73 according to my stats in the passing game for 462 yards

overall offense for a Lake Linden.

Let's take a 30 second break.

We'll come back with our smart choice of the game and I will tell you that when we return back here in Iowa.

They are located on Beezer Avenue right next to the Ashland High School and right across the street from the hospital.

Joe, I think the smart choice of the game came down to the kicking game by Lakeland and there are little squid kicks.

Got them two or three more possessions repossession three extra possessions.

Yep, and you take No, if they go for two point conversions that's 24 points.

Yep.

Take those 24 points off the board and it's Yeah, a bit closer game

and also, you know, it's one of those things like we said ball control I would I think did pretty good on ball control They got but just couldn't put it in the end zone But the other thing was like Lyndon will take advantage of the plays when you give him the ball at the midfield like that they'll just

They'll just keep beating on you.

And that's what they did tonight.

And they kicked it to the same spot.

Yes.

They knew where to kick it.

Yeah, exactly.

So the smart choice of the game is the kicking game by Lakeland.

Yes, yes.

All right, that'll do it for Minor tonight.

Again, the final score.

Lakeland and Hubble 44, Ironwood 14.

Join Joe and I next Friday night from Besmer as the Givik miners.

We'll take on the Crystal Falls Forest Park Trojans.

Joe, you're going to see another good football team in Crystal Falls, but we'll give it, we'll be ready for the challenge.

Yes, hopefully we have a real nice game next week and we'll see.

We'll talk on the radio on Tuesday and Thursday morning and join us for our football show on Friday when we talk about everything under the sun regarding football.

Cutting edge.

Cutting edge, yes.

That will do it.

For Luke, back at the studio for Jason Juno and Joe Rimpcast, this is Rod Helverson saying, hope you enjoyed the broadcast.

We had fun bringing it to you.

to one.

in pre-game show.

We've got the Copper Island Academy of Calumet kicking off the Ansonog and Gladiers.

I'm joined by Cole Kinn.

Say hi, real quick, Cole.

How is it going?

It's going good.

I'll try to do the pre-game as they're doing the opening kick here.

We're at Ansonog and tonight, the Gladiers are going to host the Calumet Copper Island Academy Eagles.

And the first kick is up is a swiver off to the left-hand side.

Glad's going from left to right.

There's Majur in picking it up, heading out to his right.

And he's going to be knocked out of bounds at about the 42-yard line.

What'll be first in 10 gladiators?

Now to try to do the pregame spiel as quick as I can here, the Calumet Copper Island Academy is a charter school that was founded in 2020.

They've had their athletic program since the school opened, including JV football.

This is their first varsity football season and only their second ever varsity game.

They lost last week on the road to Brimley by a score of 36 to nothing.

But Brimley is a decent squad.

They went four and five last year.

Now the Glads are going to line up.

Looks like a shotgun formation.

We'll do the starting lineup.

If I was presented by Al's Otto soon too, we got Brayden Buzzo.

We'll be in a shotgun set.

Looks like Colt, that's Baboula in motion to his left.

Baboula back to pass as Buzzo throws deep left hand style.

He's got Baboula, but it's knocked away.

Nice defensive play.

That's by number 23.

Here are the Kiamet Eagles team.

That's Stanley Kangus.

The coach told me he has to play good tonight.

Back to our pregame.

The Glad's first game didn't go quite as planned.

Crystal came in here and won pretty easily 44 to 6.

I did see some good things last game.

Those are Glad's.

Their tackling was very good.

Junior Clayton Kinn sat out the first quarter of the game and he was greatly missed.

He caused a turnover and also helped cause another turnover.

He had an interception off one of his passes.

I formation now.

It's the give to the right hand side.

I think that's Babula it is.

He goes literally nowhere.

It's going to be third down and long.

All right, Ken also had a handful of tackle.

Senior Ryan Holmstrom played well from his middle linebacker position as well.

Overall, the Glads tackling was solid.

However, their offense just wasn't able to do a whole lot.

They only got a handful of first downs.

They did have a 45-yard or a 75-yard touchdown run by Junior running back, Roti Babula.

He has to be productive for this offense to get going, so I expected him to get the ball probably 20 times this evening.

Now, the Glads are coming up here for a third down.

It looks like 10.

We've got 11 minutes to go, opening quarter, buzzle in the shotgun.

He's got Babool in motion.

It's a give to Babool up a pitch up the left-hand side, cuts it up.

Now that's kind of room there.

Oh, and I believe he's fumbled.

He has, and it's recovered by the Eagles.

And there's a turnover right away by the Gladiators.

Tough way to start your first

rock.

And now we're leading to that.

All right, now look at Cole in this.

Can the Gladiators bounce back?

And what do they need to do to get this offense moving?

I'm going to guess not turn a ball over because it starts.

That would be a good start.

But I believe they can bounce back.

They did show that.

They can play well in the last game.

I

think they showed glimmers.

The Eagles are going to line up.

They've got a tight end on each side.

It looks like eye formation.

Their quarterback starting is Vince Haydenin.

And his brother Victor is their lead tailback number 10 and 11.

And there's the give to Haydenin right hand side.

Not much there.

And he's bowled over by several gladiators.

See if we can get some numbers for you there.

That's hard to see him.

Hersch maybe?

Give that tackle to her.

So I'm fine with that.

You're starting offense for the start with Copper Island since they have the ball.

Their quarterback number 10 is Vince Heinenin.

Victor plays running back.

His brother wears number 11.

Another running back is Stanley Kangus.

He's more of their fullback.

He wears number 23.

He's lined back at your lineup as fullback on this play.

Eye formation again.

Tight ends on both sides for the Eagles.

Give it to the tailback.

That is actually Kangus.

He's got a couple.

They'll set down a third down in five.

Good start defensively couple stops early on short run.

This is big here first third down of the game Try to do some more Alice Otto Bruce crossing starting line-ups here.

We had Kangus at running back Cullen Bergman number 54.

He's a guard 22 is Wade Cascola.

He's one of their ends along with Nolan Kipala Where's number 21 center is Dean Penelope and number 50 Calvin Anderson plays the other guy we have a

Quarterback is by himself, two wings to the left.

He's going to be a keeper for Hayden.

Oh, and he stuffed his number 35 on that tackle.

Cam Logan.

Cam Logan, good call.

You can lie in from

that side.

That was fun to watch.

Nice stick there.

It's going to bring out about 4,000, about 4,000 and five or six, depending where they spot that ball.

We've got nine and a half left opening quarter.

And before, forget, we have a first quarter sponsor.

And it's the Berglin Bay Bar they just joined this week.

It is a 4,000 and five, nine and a half here to go.

Early test as a defense.

Can you stop them?

Get off the field.

You know, I said the defense played decent up in spots last week.

It kind of forgives the offensive mistake as well.

It's, you know, they go on a drive and don't score anything.

Absolutely got eye formation.

Kangus at full.

Hating in a tail.

And it's a give.

No, it's not.

It's a keep, pass, top left hand side to Kangus.

That's a beautiful play.

And he's got a first all nice block on the edge there.

by number 21.

It's a gain to inside the 10.

There is a flag on the play.

We'll see what that is.

It's going to be a first down, I believe.

They're going to call a face mask there.

Is that what I'm hearing?

Referee is not called anything yet.

He did throw it at the spot.

Interesting.

It's got to be something on the tackle, wouldn't you think?

It was right where it kind of went out of bounds.

They've got the ball spotted at the nine yard line.

Right now it looks like first and goal.

They may have just picked that flag up than they have.

Might have been just to spot it.

I think you might be right on that one.

It looks like an I formation again.

Number 24 playing fullback.

That's Dwight Koskala.

Tailback is hinting at him.

His brother will take the snap momentarily.

Give it to the tailback.

Oh, and he stopped.

Number 12.

Hurst.

Just hurst again.

It's a nice play.

Came right through the middle.

Didn't have a lot of push-up thrown from...

I think,

you know, last game the glass line didn't play exceptionally well, but I think they're a little old man against Crystal.

This is a better matchup for them.

I expected to play better tonight.

Yeah, it's more of a size comparison.

You know, it's a better matchup there for the gladiator.

Absolutely.

Their line needs to be big tonight.

Second down and nine.

We're under eight and a half here to go.

They put it at the 10 yard line.

Check that in as it is and goal.

Shotgun formation eight and then back.

It's a direct snap to Kangus, but he's fumbled it, and he's going to go nowhere.

A lot of gladiators in the vicinity.

You can give credit to a lot of different guys there.

I'm going to give it to number 33.

It's going to be Ryan Holmstrom.

We'll get a cheapy tackle there.

He's one of several.

Eight minutes to go here.

I'm going to play.

Take advantage of it anyway.

This is an opportunity to get off the field here again.

Two down, 16 yards.

A win-third down.

Wait, you got a win-third.

He went outside at 10, which

would be good.

From the Eagles point of view, I'm looking for seven or eight yards here.

Yeah, that's a different contact.

You got to try to at least get half of this offensively here to make it way more manageable on goal.

What do we got here?

There is a timeout for the Copper Island Academy.

So why don't we finish our starting lineup?

So I have a chance.

Sorry, Southern Federal Credit.

We didn't get much of a pregame show.

We don't know much about the Calumet team anyway, so I guess no harm done.

But we do have a starting lineup for the glad eaters on offense.

They're going to start number three.

That's Brayden Buzzo.

He's a junior.

One running back is Brody Babula.

He's also a junior.

He wears number one.

Their full back is Ryan Holmstrom wearing number 33.

He's a senior.

Wide receiver number seven is Clayton Kin.

He's a junior.

Tight end is Cam Logie.

He wears number 35.

He's also a junior.

Their line is Logan Back.

He's a junior.

Connor Guzik wears 52.

He's a junior.

And the other guard is William Anderson wearing number 19 is another junior.

They really only have two seniors on the team.

Jacob Hurst, who's called his number a few times already, Ryan Holmstrom.

And we're back.

738 here to go opening quarter.

Again, sponsored by the Birdwin Bay Bar.

738 on the clock.

It will run as soon as the ball snaps.

Two wide receivers left hand side, hanging in the shotgun by himself.

Snap is good.

Looking left.

He's got time.

Now he's out of time.

Throws it to his right.

Nobody's home.

It's going to bring up fourth down.

Good pressure there by Hurst again, number 19.

DJ Anderson is Anderson my bad giving the wrong guy credit.

Good call.

Oh good Here's a swarm back there.

There's a couple

Good pressure.

I think last game we didn't see that a whole bunch.

So you didn't see a ton of pressure now Crystal's online did a very good job buying time and it seemed like a lot of their passes were kind of on you know fake motions and kind of eye candy

I love the like

the bootleg.

Yeah,

you know you fake the run to the right and wheel out to your left

And it works because when you sell it hard and when you gain eight yards running

it the

first time they're

running the ball helps Hated in his shotgun.

There's two wide receivers was right one man in motion.

That's Kangus They're gonna fake the handoff to Kangus got one guy wide open to his right inside over a good tackle And that's gonna be a turnover on downs.

Who we giving credit there to?

It is Bob is Bobula with the tackle And the gladiators will take over still zero zero seven twenty six good stop by the glad defense

I've seen a lot of green over there when he kind of started

kicking

out over there.

A pretty clever play, but it only got him 7.

They needed 16.

On a sort of bootleg type big jet

sweep.

Yeah, I bet you about a thousand dollars they'll run that sweep to Kangus at some point this game.

We've got an eye formation.

Babu is the tail back.

I'm assuming it's Holmstrom at fold.

Give us the tail back.

That's Bobu.

Left hand side with some room.

Breaks one tackle, gets to the line.

He's up near the first down.

He's going to get the first down.

Where he's knocked out of bounds or wrestled down, whatever it was, it's going to be first down gladiators.

You need to see more of that.

Up the gut.

Give him some room.

Give him a lane.

Let him try to find space.

All right, I got the word from the studio.

Turn it up just a little bit.

Thank you, Robbie.

7-18, first-first down for the Gladiators there.

They went a long way last week without getting one, so that's a great start already.

Way better than the first series.

Already off to a better start.

All right, here we go.

I formation again.

One wide receiver right-hand side is Kin.

Baboula is the tail back, assuming Holmstrom at full.

And it's going to be a give to Baboula right-hand side.

Not much there.

The Eagles held up well in that play.

Not a lot of help up front on that one.

Didn't get a lot of push.

Let's say probably one yard there.

It'd be second down and nine.

As we cross the seven-minute mark in the opening quarter, Ball's got about the 21-yard line of Onsenaga, and they're going from our left to our right.

Eagles, of course, going in the direction.

No score yet.

Didn't see a ton of eye formation last week from Onsenaga.

I think they came out and tried to run it a little bit.

It just didn't really work out, but they're off.

I suppose there's not a field enough to see a lot of it either, though.

Didn't get the biggest sample size.

Oh, here we go.

Eye formation again.

Kinsfoot out left.

It's going to be a give to Holmstrom up the middle, breaks one tackle, runs into a swarm.

He's going to have a gain of a couple.

It's going to be third down and long though.

Got to get

something here.

You make it fourth and one, you think about it, but... Yeah, this

end of the field.

Third down at eight is the situation.

I think you get seven, and maybe you think about it.

I don't know if the coach has thought processes there, and it depends.

Eight is about to decent last week, I think.

Five or less, you know, no question

about it.

All right, Buzzo under center, I formation.

He is going to be back to pass looking left-hand side.

He's got a man.

He's open with a nice catch there, 35.

He's low-key, and he has a nice 20-yard gain up outside the 40.

Great play.

I like that play.

That's it.

That play-action pass.

You just mentioned it a second ago, and there you go.

It's a first down gladiator.

There's your second on this drive.

And a

really smart play call, especially.

I mean, it's third and eight.

Who do you think the ball's going to?

I like the fact that the ball is a good move.

I mean, everybody thinks he's going to get the ball, right?

Yeah.

Five and a half here to go opening quarter.

This looks like he's going to be a shotgun set this time.

It is Holmstrom next to Buzzo.

Fuzzle is going to keep it left-hand side.

No, he's not.

There's going to be illegal something here.

The ref blows the whistle.

That's a false start.

And they're going to back it up five yards.

That's not what we're looking for in a first down there.

No.

I don't know.

Maybe Fuzzle is still kind of in motion.

You wonder, everybody's got to be set before somebody goes in motion.

I'm wondering if they were set before he did or not.

I don't know.

We can't hear the referee.

We just saw the signal.

and sometimes they're not always exactly what they call themselves.

I think five-year penalty is a five-year penalty.

Anyway, you call it.

Clock is ticking, 5.15 here to go.

Can't move before the ball.

It's a big one.

They spotted us, the 38-yard line.

It's first down at 15 as we approach five minutes.

Buzzel's in shotgun, Holmstrom is right.

Baboula is off to his left, he's in motion.

And it's a pitch to Baboula off the right-hand side.

Good containment there by number 50 off the Eagles and very minimal gain.

Ooh, and I see some fist cuts after the play there.

I like it.

Holmstrom getting into it.

With number 10 is the quarterback Vince Hayden in.

Not sure what that was about.

Difference of opinion.

I did see that really good edge set though by number 50.

That's that containment.

Calvin Anderson, he started that garden.

I never give him some credit.

That was a good defensive play.

Did a great job to steal the edge.

Didn't allow Brody to go anywhere.

Alright, we got 2nd down, 13, 420 to go here, opening quarter.

Fuzzles in shock on Holmstrom goes right, a bull in motion.

It's going to be a give to Holmstrom up the middle, nothing doing.

Nice tackling there by the Eagles.

Too much penetration again.

And I'd like to see a little bit of a different look there.

You know, you only run for a yard on the last play, so going back to the very same Cree snap, I don't love Cree snap.

You don't see that, I have formation a little bit more maybe.

Give it to him.

Let him rip up the gut.

All right.

We got third down of 13 under four to go here opening quarter.

There is no score The Copper Island Academy of Calumet against the Astonoggin you and show Creek waters me gladiator puzzle under center I formation he's back to pass looking left got his man That's kid already dropped it at the first down marker.

That was a nice play

Yeah,

I don't know everything with a catch.

Yeah

Yeah,

I don't beat you

Yes, he did.

He was

decent coverage, but he did have a step on him across.

Oh, he knows it.

He'll hear about it later in the right call.

He will.

I like the execution.

He's got to catch it.

That's a great play call.

They run the slam.

It was there.

Nice throw by Buzzo.

It was a

really nice throw.

And he had time.

He had a little bit of time to set up and let it swing.

All right, here we go.

It's going to be a punt.

Looks like Amos is back there.

335 to go, 4th and 13, and they are going to punt.

It's not bad.

It's going to go right hand side, not a bound.

Probably about the 35 yard line.

We'll see where they mark this.

Looks like they agree.

Right at the 35 yard line.

And while we have just a moment, there's no score.

I'll do some of the live reads.

Make sure you buy some support or Labor Day fest.

All right, here we go.

Shotgun set.

This is Calumet.

Give us to the left-hand side.

That's Hayden, and he's got a few before he's knocked over.

He's got probably two or three yards.

Cooper Moylan in on the tackle.

I believe he's got that right.

Moylan with a nice play.

Not a real big guy, but he's playing inside and he's made some really nice plays through these first few games so far.

He's getting in there.

I thought he played spot duty at quarterback last week, and I think he did fine.

Yeah.

Especially for backup duty.

It was not

the issue offensively really was the quarterback being taken out.

Our guy formation here again.

Balance formation by Calumet.

Give his left hand side.

That's Kangus, only a couple.

What do you got there 35?

I'm going to give credit to is logy.

Good call.

Good job cutting up inside getting arms on the guy.

You got that third six.

I think the tackling this year has been very good.

So through the first, you know, five quarters so far it has been.

We've got two and a half left now, third and five.

Kind of a methodical game here so far.

I feel like we got a pretty even matchup tonight is what it looks like so far to me.

Calumet's gonna have overload on the right hand side shotgun set running back into the quarterback's left.

That's Hainan in This is when they're gonna snap it to either guy.

They fake to Kangus pass from Hainan and goes deep to his brother, but it's broken up I play again.

He did break it up.

It's a nice play Kind of had his back turned He's there.

He's up a little bit gingerly, but nice play there

They're

getting some sound out of his helmet.

Oh, he's good.

Got to help him out after he made a big play.

It's going to be fourth down and five.

I think this is one of those places.

This is where you

got to watch for a little boot out.

Maybe even the Jets lead, finally.

I was going to say, it's dimes to donuts.

They were going to go for fourth down here, but I'm wrong.

They're going to punt.

I don't trust it, but we'll see.

I'm going to guess that's a hand in the back to the punt.

It's not.

Number 22 is the puncher that's Koskala.

Punt is right hand side.

It's going to bounce out of bounds.

Oh boy, it keeps going.

Nice punt.

Gets inside the 20.

And that's where we'll be.

It'll be first in 10 gladiators with 2-0-3 here to go.

No score yet.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

WPY101 coverage of high school football.

Snap is a sloppy one.

He gets in the hands of Buzzo, but he's going to go nowhere.

Kangus tripped him up.

Good job.

This has saved the ball.

Yeah, that was a very good play by Buzzo.

You're right about that.

It's going to be a loss of, looks like, a couple.

Kind

of.

Buzzo, like five.

Not how you want to start a drive, either.

No, and

I think that last drive they had going, and then they got the penalty.

So this second, and then 15, or first, and 15 is not the situation they want.

They're behind the stick.

I do really think though, they're just one play away offensively, I think from hitting big.

Bubz is the guy that's explosive that's going to make a big play though.

They're going to get him the ball.

Bubz is looking to run right hand side and he's going to go nowhere.

That's Kangus again, I believe on the tackle and it is.

He's a good player.

We did talk to the coaches very briefly before the game and the Calumet Copper King, Clay Larson, he said they really need...

The two Haynes and Kangus to be big, and Kangus has been, as advertised, a very good defender so far.

He's been all over defensively.

I'm assuming he's their middle linebacker.

He'd be like Holmstrom's counterpart.

Yeah.

Yeah, and indeed he is.

I like to see them two clash in the middle a little bit.

I think it's going to happen here and they're taking this game, I assume, both sides of the ball.

55 seconds left, opening quarter, 3rd and 15.

Looks like an eye formation, buzzle back to pass, a little bit of time.

Now he's stepping up and he's going to get sacked.

Nice play by Calumet, both offenses struggling right now.

I just think if we lose five yards on first down, they're not going to pick up a whole bunch of first downs that way they have to win first down.

You've

got to win first down, at least go forward

a little bit.

I mean just a two yard gain on first is way better than minus five.

All right, fourth and 16, Amos is back to punt, 0-0 score, we've got over 20 seconds, just over.

And the punt is a high one right hand side.

It's going to be fielded by one of the Haynenin brothers out at the 45 yard line.

Misses one tackle.

Oh, break three now.

And then he's finally knocked to

the third by

Holmstrom.

And that was number 10.

That was Vince Haynenin.

So with 10.3 seconds left, this is the Eagles.

I want to say it's their best field position of the game.

Do I have that right?

They might

have been

a little deeper on the last effort.

Probably their best starting best starting for sure.

It's going to be at the they've got it at the 39 yard line.

It'll be first down and 10 Which will most likely be the last play of the opening quarter And you're right it has flown by relatively quickly.

We're only 20 minutes into this game All right, I formation eight in the center Kangus at full The other Hayden in that tail Kangus went motion to the right pitch to the right says hey here I ate it and cuts it back up decent run

Oh, he's wrestled down by Holmstrom.

After a gain of, I'm going to go with four.

And that will indeed end the opening quarter.

And it looks like that's a gain of, not sure.

We'll find out when we come back.

The score is 0-0.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

Hello, folks, welcome back.

WBY101 coverage of high school football.

I am Willie Dupont.

I'm joined tonight by Cole Kin.

So far, we're going to Barber.

Nothing, nothing.

Nothing, nothing.

It's been a defensive game,

so far.

Good night.

The Glantz offense is still struggling.

I think their defense has been fine.

Really close matchup, though.

I think these teams are very even.

Just going to

be who can get that first big ball and if they can run with it.

I feel like it's gotta be Bubula.

You know, he had the one 75 yarder last game.

I mean, he's the real explosive guy.

I think your brother is capable there too.

I know he had a couple of big chunk plays last game.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a huge touchdown.

You know, we haven't really seen a team make a huge swinging play either way.

There hasn't been much either.

Shotgun set, one running back to the left, tail back to the left.

It's gonna be a keeper by Haynen and he's got a little bit of room.

Give him five or six.

I think that's Holmstrom that wrestled it down.

No, it's Ben.

Is that?

Is that Holmstrom?

Am I wrong on that one?

Yeah, I'm giving Holmstrom the credit on that one.

That was Vince Hayden with the keeper left hand side.

It's going to be third down and three.

But it has been a game

of, you know, so far, four, five, six yard runs.

You know, I think Bob Smith had an 11 yard run or so, but it's going to be who can get the first big ball.

I

think that 11 yard is the biggest play of the game so far.

I think so.

Alright big play here third down high formation.

We've got kengis and a pair of Hayden in the backfield kengis motions left It's a fumbled snap in the quarterback.

He's on the ground when he picked it back up Oh, he's doubled for a first down, but it's not gonna count.

It's gonna be fourth down and five Both teams have had a couple fumbled snaps at a crucial moment.

That's a killer for the Eagles

there That's a third and three.

I mean that's a very Manageable spa.

I mean you're still fourth and four fourth and five, but it's a little bit further

As a coach that's infuriating, you just give me a gain of, you know, a yard there is a big deal, not a loss of one.

Can you

do work hard again in

those situations, both ways?

All right, we got shotgun set, one ring back left.

We got a wing back on the left-hand side, too.

Ooh, that was almost offside.

It's going to be a run to Kangus, left-hand side, and he's, quote, he wrestles forward.

I think he's got it.

I think

they are going to give it to him.

I think they are.

That's going to be about a five-yard game by Stanley Kangus.

Oh, that's right at the stick.

They're going to have to measure that one.

Chain

game is going to head out there.

Got a good crew tonight, including Danny Kidd is one of them.

Derek Morris is out there as well as usual.

And I've got Pat Tucker and Caleb Price.

Looks like all

crew.

Don't be a hero and just don't fall down when they send you out there.

And they're gonna call it a oh boy, that's close.

They're gonna call it first down right at the stick.

I mean it is Cauchy right at the end of the ball.

Good job changing and good job by Calumet.

They have a first down and they are at the 29 yard line where it'll be first down at 10.

Still no score this game.

Ten and a half to go with second quarter.

Your second quarter sponsor is the Citizen's Day Bank.

Get on to Noggin.

Shotgun set, wing back right, running back to the left of the quarterback, Hayden in.

Snap is the Hayden in, give it to his brother, up the middle, not much.

Holmstrom's all over him right away.

He's been all over.

Rotting the Jiren in on the tackle.

Rotting number eight in there, good play.

Give him probably three yard gain.

I think a lot of that too, if you see Holmstrom making a bunch of tackles, that typically means their line is at least holding their own.

Yeah.

And giving him the opportunity to do what he's supposed to do.

And that does make a lot of it too.

Are your defensive linemen

Filling where they should it

is

and it'll open up place for your backers a lot of time

Alright shotgun set wing right running back to the left Hayden has got it.

He's gonna get it to his brother.

No, it's Kangus.

Oh, he's

stuck.

That was a nice hit there We give a credit to the 35 on the hit to give it to Logie there Crunch third out over

Can't play in a stellar game right

now.

I'm shocked if this is the same kid basketball You're so timid and I hear him out there yelling in pregame.

Oh, yeah

And he was a good basketball player.

Had a lot of discussions with Coach Besson about it.

Just tell him he's good so he believes he's a good player.

He is.

He is on the board, too.

All right, here we go.

Two wide receivers, right-hand side, third down and seven.

Shotgun set for Hayden in.

He's back to pass, looking right-hand side, looking for Kengis.

And it's over his head.

Pretty good coverage there by Clayton Kin.

And it brings up fourth down.

He's there.

With 9.07 left to go in the first half.

Of course, we'll have a half-time show as well.

Sponsored by Wysons pit stop bar and drill.

Another new sponsor this year.

I do

get the third and seventh pass.

But you've got to really trust it.

Yeah,

I don't

mind it.

I mean,

it's kind of there, but pretty good defense.

Yeah, it was a good defense.

It wasn't far off, but now you're stuck with fourth and seventh.

Now it's tough.

Eye formation, Hayden under center.

Kangus and Hayden are behind him.

The give is to nobody.

It's play action pass, throwing deep left hand side.

And oh, it's over, kid.

Nice play.

Wade Toscola from 28 yards out, and it makes the score 6 to nothing.

Wow, that was a nice play.

Kid was there, but it got over his head.

He just kind of started back pale and not really running with the guy.

Got out of position.

It was a good play.

It was a good play call.

Wow.

And there's the first score of the game, a 28-yard strike.

But that's what it was going to be.

You know, it had to be out a little bit.

I didn't necessarily see a team just go in and go in and go in.

No, those

are going to drive him in.

They had, I want to say it was that two first

outs and then they had a big play in, a fourth down.

All right, eye formation.

The fullback is number 24, that's Dwight Koskala.

He's in motion right hand side.

It's going to be a keep to hand it in who throws it to.

It's going to be a complete, it'll be a two point conversion to see who it is.

Is that 21 over there?

And that's

Kipala.

And the score is 8-2-0.

Gladiators trail it.

No, this is where the offense just has to decide, like, no, we can score.

We can move the ball.

Yeah.

And I'm going to assume that's probably, well, I know it is.

That's the first touchdown in Copper Island Academy football history.

It would be.

And it's a pass from Vince Haydenin.

to number the Cascola.

Number 22 Wade

Cascola.

It's a nice play.

Congratulations.

You're in the record books forever.

Now, we want to sit back here and come right back and tie the game.

With 9-0-1 to go, it is 8-0.

That's 9-0-1 in the first half.

8-0 Calumet.

They're going to kick to our right.

It's number 24 Dwight Cascola.

And he takes the left hand side and that's Baboula with it.

He's to the 30, gets around one man to the 35, to the 40, up to the 45.

Oh, runs on over another.

Nice run there by Brodie Baboula.

That will fire

you up by lineup.

He gets near midfield.

Nice return.

I'm going to give him about probably 25 yards on that one.

And it was an

accident too.

It was not supposed to go through there.

It flipped through the hands of Major.

We saw that last week.

The best kick return they had was a line driver, and I'm assuming that was never the plan.

No, you're

kind of rolling back, too.

All

right, glad he was in a great field position with March ready back down now.

It'll be Buzzo.

Looks like he's going to be under center.

He's got Holmstrom as the deep tail back.

Check that.

Mabula is going to line up in the deep tail.

Holmstrom in front of him in the eye formation.

Pitches to Mabula right hand side.

Tries to cut up.

That's really good defense again by number 50.

That's Calvin Anderson.

He's setting that edge.

They're not able to hook him.

Yeah.

You know, I make that adjustment.

If he's going to play upfield like that, give me the belly play where you wrap him out there and run right underneath him.

It would be the next step.

And I would say the middle of the field has been open a little bit to run.

I mean, they've hit on it here and there.

And we got second down to 10.

That was a gain, but they don't call it one.

It's a gain of a long nothing.

He'd often to roll a little bit

though.

They got it.

This is a big spot here.

Ball in your midfield.

Chaka and Snap coming to Buzzo.

He's got the ball in motion.

Buzzo's going to keep it left-hand side.

There's your run up the middle, but not for much.

He's got a few.

It's going to be third down.

Probably seven.

Maybe six.

I'm thinking seven.

It's forward though.

He's going backwards.

We're under eight minutes to go here in the first half.

Eight nothing.

Calumet leaves it.

It is going to be a third down and seven here.

You have to get you mean three or four or five yards here.

First time would be even better.

But they have to go forward on this play.

Happy.

Got to get something.

Looks like is that going to be a timeout?

No.

Equipment malfunction, maybe.

Yeah, that's what it is.

Not that.

I forget there.

This is high school football.

There are rules.

Game will stop because of that.

That more than we got on our left there in a wide position.

My formation in the back and I'll go back to pass and he's tackled as he throws and that doesn't know that's not gonna be a complete pass.

Oh No, I was down

He got tackled like kind of

awkward play there.

Hopefully he gets up.

They need him in this game.

He said nobody to block Yeah, there's pressure immediately on that play that's if you're on

a

It's

good that Calvin Anderson started that guard this evening and defensive end.

He has played well, fourth down and seven.

The ball is spotted at the Calumet 48 yard line.

Buzzo is going to come out for at least a play that's number eight heading out there is Majurin.

I think it's going to be Cooper at quarterback would be the guess.

I mean, you are on the plus side of the field, so.

I see Amos is out there.

We'll see where he lines up.

It is going to be Cooper Moylan and calling the play in the huddle and they got a boola on the sideline.

I don't know who you go to on this play.

I'm assuming they're going to try to pass.

Holmstrom's going to line up at fullback.

Amos is wide receiver to his left.

Main tailback.

I don't know whose number it is.

We can't see them.

Oh, and they got a false start by Amos, number 15.

That's going to bring it back even further.

I kind of wonder, do you punt now?

Yeah.

Oh, that was actually Brodie Majur and was lined up at tailback on that play.

It's going to be fourth down and 12.

if they are going on

now.

I think that's the right play.

It's not like Calumet's had a huge explosive offense.

You know, they got good field position.

Get them down there.

Your defense can make a play good enough to get the ball back, right?

I think so.

To me, it's the smart play of this game.

It's not really, you know, in jeopardy quite yet.

Don't make a mistake and give them the ball at the midfield.

That doesn't make sense to me.

That is a 5-yard penalty on the Gladiators.

It's going to be 4,012.

We're at 7 and a half minutes to go here in the first half.

Amos is out there.

He looks to punt.

Chelyamet didn't trust it.

Now they will.

It's going to be number 10 back there.

It's been tainted and starting quarterback.

Snap is just fine.

Punt is away and he's bumped.

No call.

Punt goes out of bounds at about the 29-yard line.

That's a fine play.

Now Amos is hurt.

Kind of a weird play.

He definitely ran into the punter.

Yeah, I don't

I'm not sure what they seen

there

No,

he's grabbing his left elbow left shoulder.

I guess we'll see if he goes, okay An awkward play kind of took like either a helmet or shoulder right to it That would happen maybe like a bruise.

He'll wake up with a bruised elbow tomorrow All right

It was well after he got it off, you know, that's how you're running into it.

Yeah, I Guess that's why we're not referees All right, shotgun snap here to Hainan and two wide receivers right one guy in motion is Kangus.

He's heading to his left Now it's gonna be a run to the left for Hainan and well-designed play.

He's got room to the 40 He's up near midfield.

The boo is the only guy to be all the boo hits them.

They have them up And wrestles them down with a nice play.

It's up to the 44 yard line

Oh, that's a gain of 25 plus there.

He went nowhere though after he got that little stick from Brody.

Nice tackle by Bulley.

You don't see somebody get hit like that.

That's hard downfield.

I mean, he went nowhere after that

either.

Not down.

This is a get-check time for the Gladys.

They have to stop him now.

It would be a great time.

Got to show some fire here.

It's obviously, even if you do go two scores down, it's not the end of the world.

But you gotta show some fire here.

Momentum is twitching against the Gladiators pretty

fast.

I agree.

The Eagles have all the mojo right now.

Hated in the shotgun.

Two wide receivers, two is left.

He's gonna run left.

Got a little bit of room.

I got three, four yards.

I'm gonna give him a jury and credit on that tackle number eight.

That's actually Kangus in the back.

Was that 23 that ran that one?

Yeah.

Short game though.

Nice tackle there by Major.

It's gonna be second down, probably seven or eight.

They call it seven on the big board.

We're just under six and a half minutes left here first half Calumet leads it eight to zero And they line up at the 42 yard line 41 yard line check that of the gladiators And it ends under center He's got an eye formation behind him And give to the fullback is Koskala he goes Backward nice play there who had to tackle like this that one my bad is that 52 thank you was

Him

and

Ryan, maybe?

Connor and Ryan?

We're going to give Guzik and Holmstrom credit on that tackle.

It's a loss of a couple.

Brings up a third down and nine.

Kind of a trap that didn't go anywhere.

Those traps, I mean, it's a play you throw up there once in a while just to catch someone off guard, make them think for the rest of the game.

Yeah.

We've got a shotgun set here.

Hated him.

That QB, two wides to his left.

He's got a little bit of time.

Coming with pressure here.

Number 19 around the edge.

Doesn't tackle him.

Now he's running to his right.

Oh, nice block there.

He's got a first down to the 30 inside the 25 yard line.

He's finally knocked out of bounds by number 28.

It's Cooper Moylanen.

Nice play there by Hayden in.

DJ

Anderson.

I thought it was BJ.

He didn't have a

nice player

on the

edge, but quarterback just made a play to

knock it.

Oh, and that's a backbreaker.

Nice first down.

Good run there.

That was Vince Hainan in.

The ball is up to the 25-yard line.

We have 5-24, clock temporarily frozen.

Gladstrail at 8-0.

They got to get a stop.

You don't go down, too.

Copper Island is doing a better job, though, moving

the ball offensively.

They've been spryed throughout the second quarter.

Shotgun set.

Two y's to the left.

Hainan has got it.

Looking left.

He's got time.

Finds a guy wide open.

That's number 21.

That's Kilpelah.

He's running up field up to the 10.

where he's tackled by a group of gladiators, but not after he picks up 15 yards, and yet another, Calumet first down.

Too much.

Too much.

I like the design there.

The two wides both run crossing routes to the right-hand side, and they snuck a tight end over there in a flat.

He's wide open.

He was.

They've done that a couple times where they just kind of sneak out that little dump rail to a tight end, and they've been open.

Pretty

much every time.

They ran that same play in that fourth and 16.

I know they only got seven, but it looked like there was more.

That was that same play.

I'd be willing to bat.

All right, eye formation, tight end right hand side.

Now we got a guy in motion that's Kangus to the left.

It's a fake pitch and a give to Kangus up the middle.

Oh, nice stick, but he's got himself a few.

That was Kinn on the tackle.

Pobula.

You think Pobula there?

Yeah, it was number one.

How does Pobula, that one and seven get me?

Pobula on the tackle there, good call.

Gain of a few it's gonna be second down and six or seven Big board says five.

I guess I'm way off on that one.

That is five yards.

No way four and a half to go here They've got the ball spotted on the six yard line And it is five Somewhere in the middle Close enough for government work, right?

Gotta make a stop though.

This is big.

I keep saying it and I keep marching Now be a good time as any folks

Hayden is in the shotgun.

His brother's to his left.

We got a wing back to the right.

I believe that's Kangus.

Snap is to Hayden that runs the option, gets it to his brother, left hand side.

Number 11 cuts back, and he is going to score.

From six yards out, that's Victor Hayden

in,

and he has a six yard TD run.

And that makes the score 14 to nothing.

Calumet, oh no.

Ken Logie was an edge on that side, and he was just kind of put on a string with the option.

You just wonder, you know, like I know that play, somebody has the responsibility.

Is it the quarterback or is it the running back?

And we're not going to know.

But you're right, it

was two on one out

there.

Yeah, it was

just no way to beat daddy.

I've got Copscala line up as a fullback.

Snap is the ain't it in.

Ain't it going to keep it looking to throw a little bit of pressure, runs away to his left hand side and cruises in for the two-point conversion.

And that makes the score 16 to nothing Calumet.

Ouch.

Glad to have the ball here though.

We have about 359 here to go in the second quarter.

Of course, we'll talk a little bit at halftime, which will be presented by Wiseman's pit stop, Bar, and Grill.

Thank you to all of our sponsors We'll try to give you one more reason the second half Time permits In the meantime glad you're gonna move the ball here.

I mean we've been preaching it now for two quarters

I don't know I like that slam play like give me that play

So to Ken once more, at least some point, maybe not this quarter, but in the second.

And they've got to find Baboula some room.

Got

to find him.

Swiver left-hand side.

They got to get that ball.

And they do.

That's more than it was the heads-up play.

That's up to the 42-yard line, I believe.

And you see, Majura was out there too.

I know he got picked on last week for now.

He covered an onsite kick.

That's what he was going for.

Yeah.

With a lot of effort.

So I believe the coach has talked to him last week.

I'm assuming.

I would believe so.

I mean, can't stand on top of it, not.

So you have to go get that ball.

All right.

Glad it's a good field position as a result of the onside kick.

357 here to go in the first half.

Looks like a trips wide receiver formation to the left, one wide out to the right.

Does that buzzle back out there?

Believe it is.

And we have, it looks like a timeout.

So the score is 16-nothing.

Calumet leading the Antonagon Gladiators.

357 here to go in the half.

And we'll come back in 30 seconds.

Hello and welcome back.

WPY 101 coverage of high school football gladiators with the ball first down at 10.

We have a four wide set, three wide left, one to the right.

Puzzles in shotgun, Baboula in motion.

It's a pitch to Baboula, right hand side goes right up the middle and he's got a gain of probably five yards.

It's a nice play.

Hard to say as the guy, you know, up here, not on the field with the ball, but the jet sweep's got to go outside.

He wants that

play outside.

And I think Calumet has done a good job of contain

they

have and they forced our players to run upfield rather than around the edges And I think not so long it's got some good speed, but they just can't get to where it matters yet.

No You got a formation all instrument full back.

I believe that's the bullet tail Give us to the bullet right hand side and he jumps over one guy and he's tackled up near the midfield It's gonna be third down very manageable third down and free for their about

Not good as a running back though and you got a

hurdle here down line.

They've the scoreboard says third and five.

There's no way I'm gonna go third and another they go third and four.

I'll buy that one.

We're under three minutes to go here in the first half.

I formation, Holmstrom and Bamboula.

Buzzo under center.

He's got more than as a whiteout to his right hand side.

Give his two Bamboula tail and he's just gonna muscle his way forward for a nice first down.

That was a hard run there.

I was 45.

He took a couple shots and just kept going.

Hey, at this point in the game, he's like, coach, just give me the ball.

Yeah.

And so far, so good.

That's the first down for the Gladiators, their first one in a while.

And even last week, it wasn't like he got a bull load of carries.

No one.

I talked about that last year.

I think he got the ball kind of too much sometimes.

But he could definitely get the ball 15 to 20 times in a game.

That's fine.

He maybe got a 10 last week with minimal results other than one huge play.

All right, I formation again.

Give it a two-buzzle again.

Not a buzzle.

Sorry, that's Papula.

And he's got another nice run up here to 40.

And he's getting five yards of crack right now.

Just keep letting him.

You know, if you're breasting.

We got 2.15 here to go to give him a gain of four.

It'll be second down and six.

And the ball is spotted just outside the 40-yard line of Calumet.

I like it, though.

It's right up the middle.

They're not trying to go after those ends too hard.

They're just trying to get a little bit of push up front.

I think they got it.

Their line has to win right now.

Got eye formation.

We've got more than a split out left.

And we have another timeout or something.

And

it's going to be a timeout for Antonagin.

We'll stick around here, though.

We got second down and six.

We're just under two to go.

What play do you run right here?

You keep going with Baboula?

I don't know.

Maybe after a timeout, maybe you come out with that little flank, boys.

Catch him off guard a little bit.

I'm going to run that bootleg and try to run the flank, which would be my thought on this play.

You know Clayton wants another crack at it.

He was open and he got to pass earlier like he he'll catch it this time coach if you give him a chance.

Just gotta give him.

I think that would be one of those play calls were like that could hit a home run right here.

Yeah, it's a little bit risky, but I think that's the play I'd go with.

Otherwise I don't mind seeing Bobula.

I'd like to see him try to get to the edge.

Now they ran up the middle a little bit.

Maybe those run or the ends crash down just that little bit.

Catch him

inside.

Got to try

to find a way to get a room though.

You know, just got to get him in space.

Just a crack even.

He doesn't need a ton of

space either.

He showed himself to be a very physical runner.

He's not a big kid, but he's low to the ground.

He's not easy to tackle.

Not easy to bring down at all.

All right, here we go.

Buzzer's in shotgun.

He's got Holmstrom to his right, but Bula's in motion on his left hand side to give us the Holmstrom up the middle.

And that's a nice run by Holmstrom, his best of the game.

Now there's a big scrum pile.

What do you know?

Near the first down stick.

And do they have a first down?

They haven't spotted the ball yet.

I think that's the first down.

There it is, first down.

Nice run by Holmstrump.

So we're just wrong on our play calling, but that works just fine.

It works just fine.

I mean, when you go five yards without contact,

keep pounding it.

Absolutely.

Nice.

Superboolie is going to get a ref.

Clock is ticking, 135.

Ball

is spotted at the 35 yard line just inside of Calumet.

Buzzles in the shotgun.

More than a wide receiver to his right.

He's got Holmstrom and now Amos in motion.

They give this to Holmstrom up to the left-hand side.

Oh, and he's stuck.

Nice tackle there by number 22.

That's Wade Koskala with a nice stick.

Wade will hold on too.

He's

got his hands on him.

Brought him down.

And Holmstrom's a tough kid.

You don't think you'd be able to take him down that easily.

It really wasn't that easy.

He just stood him up and he got some help.

A nice play.

And we have just over a minute left.

Second down 11.

They need a big crack play here.

They trail at 16 to nothing.

We have a minute left now in the first half Shotgun said buzz always got home stream to his right one and it's out wide Amos in motion.

It's a pitch to Amos right hand side Just keep going to the sideline son.

There you go, and he gets five yards.

Oh, we tackle way lady took all Pat Tucker.

My goodness Oh Pat's okay over there.

It's a gain of five or six

Everybody looks all good over there.

I think

I don't know if that tackle was later now.

We can't see it at all.

Probably didn't wasn't needed.

I would say just done into the sideline.

That was a good play though.

It's the six yards and I mean a second 11.

That's perfect.

Stops the clock and another smart play there.

The ball is spotted at the 30th third on five.

We've got 47 seconds left in the second quarter.

Buzzo's in shotgun holds him to his left.

He's got a wing back in Amos to his right.

Widerseer is more into the left-hand side.

They give us the Holmstrom gaping hole there.

And Holmstrom with another first down, tripped up just outside the 20-yard line.

Nice play.

And number 50 for Calumet gets up holding his arm.

That's Calvin Anderson.

He's played well.

That's all he made that tackle with, too.

He just got his arm out there.

I wonder

if that hurt.

And what do we got here?

Another timeout.

We're going to discuss it.

We're going to take a timeout, too.

The score is 16-0.

Gladiators on the march.

They got the ball to 30.

We'll come be back in 30 seconds.

Hello folks, welcome back.

Score is 16-nothing.

I got a note from Jerry Major and he says that Copper Island Academy, not Calumet.

I'm saying it's one and one and the same, but we can call him Copper Island.

Or we just call him Eagle.

Anyway, the Eagles playing defense, first in 10.

Glad to have the ball with the 20 yard line.

They trail at 16-nothing.

Buzzel's in the shotgun.

It's a bad snap and it's on the ground.

He's got to follow on it and that's a loss of a bunch.

Loss of 15.

And that more or less kills that drive.

That was unfortunate.

Oh, and you hate to see that.

Call a timeout and that's what the play execution was.

That just doesn't do it.

Not ideal.

Then who got the ball first?

We remember, was it?

Is it Glad's kick?

Receive.

That is correct.

So Copper Island, we'll get that right now.

They're going to receive the second half kickoff.

They're going to have the lead for sure.

It might be trimmed, but they're still going to have the lead either way.

Right now it's second down in 24.

There's 35 seconds left in the second quarter.

And I know this drive, I mean, I don't want to say it's going to stall, but that played in the hell, but they actually moved the ball a little bit at the end.

Just get it going.

There's no reason they can't move the ball in the second half of this game.

And it wasn't a very methodical way.

It was just rushes up the gut, little plates outside.

But they did a lot of it up the middle here on the blaster.

Yeah, I think Copper Island is a good job of containing.

So if they're going to give you room up the middle, then that's where you take it.

That's fine.

Here we go.

Shotgun set.

Amos in motion.

That snap is good.

Fuzzle back to pass.

He's got some time.

Deep right hand side.

Got a man.

It is as incomplete knocked away.

Is that 35 out there?

It is.

Number 35 was Cam Logie was the intended target.

Had him for a second, but knocked away.

Pretty good defense there by Copper Islay.

The score is...

Still going to be 16.

Nothing, 28.2 left.

It's 3rd and 24.

That was a decent play.

And Bubbles got a decent arm.

He just got to give it some time.

Yeah, I mean, he was just getting hit as he was getting rid of it.

Just kind of had to heave it.

No, correct me if I'm wrong, but Cam's a pretty big kid as far as tall, right?

Is he 6' something?

He's up there.

Yeah, so he needs a decent sized target.

6'2", 6'3", I'd do.

I'm

thinking they don't have a ton of large targets.

It's not like that kid laughs like we saw from a crystal ball.

That kid is a monster, a freshman too.

28.2 left, Buzzo's in Shaka.

He's got a homestorm to his right, Amos in motion, he's back to pass, he's got a lot of time.

Now he's run out of time, throws it left, it's over everybody.

He

was trying to bind Moin in over there.

It's

going to be fourth down and forever.

I don't mind going for the deep passes, but I kind of wonder if you run like a 15 yard out and just try to get a big chunk there rather than go for the home run.

But hindsight's 20-20, you can run whatever you want on that situation.

Especially since you do have 10 yards to get a first down, you don't have to score after picking up the stakes.

No, well, too, they're going to do.

They got to go for it, I'm assuming.

They need 24 yards here, some way, somehow.

Why not?

See your brother on the sideline.

Evie, one of those target cells, he's looking for, but he's not going to be out there for this play.

Here we go.

Fourth in, 24.

Got more than as wide out to the left.

Little confusion here.

Amos is the wing back on the right-hand side.

Buzzo will be in shotgun with Holmstrom.

Buzzo back to pass.

Got a little bit of time.

Now he's running left.

He's got some room.

He's going to take off.

He's got to get a lot though.

And he breaks one tackle and fights his way, not even close to a first down, but pretty nice run there.

It's

going to be a turnover on down.

Copper Island will take over.

Yeah,

I get it.

Buzz was just trying to make something happen there.

I don't have a problem with that play.

Took a bunch of time off the clock and he gained, I mean, you gained probably 10, 15 yards there.

Yeah, it was a good

play.

I mean, there's just not a lot you can do on 4th and 24.

Yeah, I don't think a lot

of coaches drop the 4th and 24 play.

He's just kind of hoping something works out.

Nonetheless, Copper Island takes over.

16-0, they lead.

Quarterback under center.

He's just going to kneel and that's going to get us to halftime.

And we'll do a halftime show for you momentarily that's presented by Wyzen Pitstop Bar and Grill.

The halftime score is 16 for the Copper Island Academy Eagles and 0 for the Hanson-Hagen-Uentral Creek Waters Mead Gladiators.

We're gonna take a good healthy time out here though.

We'll be back for the halftime show in eight minutes.

Grand Rapids was the officiating capital of the world for one day, and we introduce a new series on why officials officiate.

I'm John Ross, and this is This Week in High School Sports, powered by the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, and coming to you from the 1-800-CALL-SAM studio.

In late July, about 1,000 MHSAA registered officials attended Officiate Michigan Day at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids.

Some of the biggest names and officiating from across the country were on hand to lead discussions, workshops, and training sessions.

The two keynote speakers were Mike Pereira, a former college and NFL official who is now the TV Rules Analyst for Spock Sports, and Kerry Seitz, the current Vice President of Ruffering for U.S.

Soccer, and the former FIFA Head of Ruffering.

Seitz is also a graduate of Brighton High School in Michigan State University.

Officiate Michigan Day was designed to benefit officials with any level of experience, veteran to beginner, high profile clinicians representing several sports in all levels including the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA, FIFA and the National Women's Soccer League provided face-to-face training during four sport specific breakout sessions throughout the conference.

This was the third Officiate Michigan Day joining events in 2013 and 2018 and for more

It's time for game balls when we highlight a trio of standout performances from the past week.

We lead things off with the volley turf takeover at Lansing Catholic where Williamson and Lansing Catholic both won volleyball matches played outside on the Cougars football field.

Elliott Bigger had a goal and to assist in Traverse City Christians win over Manistee, the first standalone boys soccer game for Traverse City Christian.

Previously, they had been in a co-op with T.C.

St.

Francis.

And to Hart Jr.

Silas Ackley, he led a trio of pirates in the top 10 as Hart came in first at the Pete Moss Cross Country Invite.

Our weekly Be the Referee feature takes a look at the fine art of officiating with MHSAA registered official Paige Winnie.

We're on the football field today where the offense has the ball on their own 20 yard line.

It's third and 10.

They run a draw play with the running back getting nine yards before fumbling at the 29 yard line.

The fumbled ball goes forward to the 35 yard line before another offensive player recovers.

Where should the ball be marked?

Because the ballers were covered in bounds, it's first down for the offense at the point of recovery, the 35-yard line.

If the ball had rolled out of bounds at the 35-yard line before anyone could recover it, it would have been brought back to the spot of the fumble, the 29-yard line, making it fourth and one for the offense.

Thanks, Paige.

There are lots of reasons to get in and stay in officiating.

Each week, we hear from a current or former official in a segment called What's My Why.

This week, we hear from Mike Pereira, who is currently the Football Rules Analyst for Fox Sports.

I didn't want to officiate when they first came to me.

I said, no.

I said, no.

My dad would officiate.

That's a why.

I said, I don't have any desire to.

And they said, well, why?

I said, because I don't.

Well, your dad officiated.

Well, maybe that's it.

I used to go to games and watch him get yelled at.

But it's $10 a game.

It's $10 a game on Sunday, three games, $30 cash.

I was a college student with no money.

I said, I always thought I wanted to officiate.

And out I went, and it was kind of interesting that that first quarter of the first game, the first Pop Warner game, first quarter, parents are yelling at me.

I didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Kids, little kids running around.

And it was like somebody injected me with adrenaline.

I found my passion in life.

As stupid as that may be sound, I found my passion in life.

Now more than ever, we need officials.

I'm John Ross, and we'll be back next week.

Welcome back to WKY101 coverage of high school football.

We're up to the Weizmann pit stop bar and grill halftime show.

We've got about 10 minutes before they kick off, the second half.

So far, it is all Copper Island Academy Eagles.

They started the scoring early.

They had a 28-yard pass from Vince Hainanen to Wade Costco to make it 6-0.

And then Vince hit Nolan Kilpelaw in the 2-point conversion to make it 8-0.

Short time later, Vince's brother Victor had a 6-yard TD run to make it 14-0.

And then Vince added a 2-point conversion to make it 16-0.

That's all the scoring.

That's all the scoring.

So it's been all Copper Island Academy.

Now the gladiators that last drive we saw him get it going just a little bit mostly with the Bula and Holmstrom.

What do we got to see in the second half for them to get back in this game?

Having the football possession of the ball is way bigger, especially in a game like this than it seems maybe.

Not a ton of scoring, but if you have the ball, they can score.

I agree with you, I think.

It's the first possession for both sides in this half I think they have to get a stop and they have to move the ball if they allow the Eagles to march down and score and get up three scores I think we're in big trouble.

Yeah, but

if you come out and knock the ball out of their running backs hands on the first carry It makes a way different course for the rest

of

all

I've had the Eagles turn the ball over in this game.

They have not I think what on Sagan's got one they had to fumble early both teams I think lost one on fourth down a pretty clean game so far

The other thing too is I think they've had some opportunities in the passing game if they can give Buzzel some time and Bill, if you're listening, he's a sophomore, we got it.

Ray and Buzzel is a sophomore quarterback.

He's got an arm and he's mobile.

I'd like to see him roll out.

They give you that bootleg action, you know, do a play action and get him out of the pocket a little bit would be a good play, something along those lines.

To just have him throw flat-footed kind of in the back of the pocket, hasn't been working the best.

I think their coach said it well as early in the game or in the pregame He told us this team has to be fundamental because they're just really not big enough.

They have no size And if you don't have fundamentals, it's tough to accomplish anything when you just said dropping back a puzzle and trying to throw I think it'd be very difficult We don't have the line to block either.

No, they have to make him mobile

And both lines kind of have to play with that game of speed and in a lot of net because they're not the biggest on both sides

I

was a little guy playing line.

One of the first things is getting the guys away.

If you make a defender run through, you're going to play going away.

That's enough.

That'll work.

Sometimes it's just position matters more than you don't have to necessarily knock your guy 30 yards off the ball.

Just be in and away the whole time to be attached to him is what matters.

Alright folks, I'm going to go through the scores one more time and then we're going to take another little break.

We got about seven minutes before the second half start.

Scoring was let off on a 28-yard touchdown pass from Vince Hainan to Wade Koskola.

That was the first touchdown ever.

in Copper Island Academy history, then Vince Hayden and then hit Nolan Kilpel in a 2-point conversion, make it 8-0.

Vince Hayden then scored a 60-R and TD run momentarily later, make it 14-0, and then Vince scored a 2-point conversion, make it 16-0.

Now it's Victor that had that run, not Vince.

And your score is 16-0.

We've got about six and a half minutes before the second half starts.

We'll take a five-minute break.

We'll be back in five.

Thanks for that one, Robbie.

Got in just in time.

Here's the second half kick to the Eagles.

It's feeling at the 20 yard line.

That's one of the Haynes ends.

He's up to the 35, up to the 40.

Breaks free a little bit up to the 43 yard line.

Taken down by Majuren.

Is that in

Moilen

and you got it.

Nice return.

No, that's not quite.

Thought we wanted the second half to start.

Twice dangerous

taking to that deep dive.

It is.

Yeah, most of the success we saw, I thought Crystal had a pretty good plan, just kick to the edges.

You try to kick it like kind of towards the 20 yard line, sort

of

towards the out-of-bond marker is kind of the way to go and I've seen so far.

And the score is 16-0.

Copper Island with the ball.

They're going to go eye formation, hanging under center.

He's got a tail back and full back behind him.

Give to his brother a tail back and he goes nowhere at 35 on a stick there.

And his logi, nice play.

Can't play good in this

game.

Set us all at edge.

He's kind of playing on that tight end and defensive end, you know, both sides of the ball.

He's on the technically the weak side, if you will.

He's on the left side of the offense, near side to us.

The gladiator is going left to right this half.

I see Cooper Morelin.

It was shaken up in the first play.

He's at the bench.

Hopefully he's OK.

There's a ton of players.

All right, here we go.

Second down and nine.

Shotgun set.

Wing back right.

Tail back to the left of the quarterback.

Hane in it.

This is that snap into either guy.

They snap it to Hainan and he fakes it to Kangus and keeps it right hand side with a blast up the middle.

Nice run and he's stuck, but way downfield.

He got tackled at the 45 yard line.

He's up a Bulu that hit him.

There it is.

Brody Bulu with a nice stick, but that's a 10 yard game.

That's a tough ball.

That's a solid run though and it kind of went the same way as the motion.

Yeah, they're doing kind of a weird formation where they put really two quarterbacks standing next to each other and they snap it either and that one was a fake to Kangus and a keeper by Hainan, but they've snapped it to Kangus out of that same formation for a run.

Yeah, just kind of that fake handoff and it wound up going to the same side.

It's odd how that was done.

All right, we got double wide receivers left hand side.

Hainan is in the shotgun set.

He's about about the 50 yard line, first and 10.

Snap is in.

Blitz by the Gladiators.

He's got a little bit of time.

They're going to call holding on this play, and he's tackled for a loss of one.

I was wondering if they'd throw it on that.

Give me a holding call on that.

It's got to be what that is, right?

It has to be.

It's got to

be.

What am I seeing?

Everybody's walking around with a cup of a pickle in it.

What is that?

I

don't know.

If we're going to check out the booth at the end of the game here, see if they've got some leftovers for us.

That is indeed a holding call.

It's going to be first down along.

That helps the cause for the Gladiators.

Now I was getting that mentality.

You've got a first down in 20.

You just need positive plays.

You want to get five to seven yards on first down.

Give yourself a chance here if I'm Copper Island.

They're going to spot the ball at the 44 yard line back in the Eagles' own territory.

It's a good spot.

That's a defensive to start rallying off of something.

You get a big holding call.

10 yards is a whole series.

That's

huge.

Especially high school ball where these these teams really aren't getting me chunk plays with ten yards.

It's a big deal

Yeah,

you've got a stack wide receiver set towards us one guy motion is Kangus And it's gonna be a fake to Kangus ain't in the back to pass those left-hand side find skillful I believe

is it is number

22

with a nice

play up to the 35 yard line.

It was number 22.

All right, Kalskala It's who that was he caught the first touchdown and copper Island Academy history

Just off to the tight end is all that was

Yeah, I don't know if they've even tried to hit a wide receiver yet.

It's always been I think either a full back or the tight end on that kind of play It's been effective for them.

They've completed that same sort of play several times now

bringing the change.

That's a gain of 20 on first and 20 and they're right at the stick No, no, he goes there forget it.

We'll run that second down to one play but no we're gonna we're gonna check the Chains instead kind of a gray

They were ready to go.

Yeah.

Thought they'll be held up for just a second.

We'll see if that's the first down.

That's really close to us.

As close as it gets.

And that's the first down.

Another first down by the Eagles on a first and 20.

That's the backbreaker for the defense.

They've got to step up here.

Gotta make some kind of play.

Somebody on the defense side.

Can we get a fumble?

Yeah, Holmes from tackle and a fumble here.

Even on the field that's gonna be hard if he's not out there.

He's not on the field right now scratch that you have to be somebody else And we've got what here looks like Got a tight end left shotgun snap to Hainan and then he's got two y's out to his right hand side Man in motion is his brother.

It's a fake to his brother keeper by hanging on right hand side Oh a nice tackle there out in base because Clayton can great play Gain him just a couple

That was number 10 Vince Hayden in the quarterback on the keeper 920 to go here third quarter your third quarter response sir is on Sonoghan County Telephone company midway telephone company and jam it off.

Thank you for your third quarter sponsorship Get him

to I like to have a stick up and tackle and we've seen it early in the game But as it's gone on seen it less

less and less I formation can get some motion left-hand side the pitches to Hayden in he cuts it up field That's not a number 24 is a short game

That's the white consula.

Anderson on the tackle.

You giving BJ the credit for that one?

He came around mate.

There's a gain, I'm going to call that one a four yard gain.

Should set up about a third down and five.

We've got a big play coming up here, 840 to go here, third quarter.

It is at these third down and five.

The ball is spotted right now.

I believe that's at the 31 yard line, give or take.

Call it

31.

Somebody's

got to be clutch here.

Give me a stop.

Give me a loss of one or two here

would be huge

They're gonna go I formation the pullback is 24.

That's Costco tail back.

I believe is hanging

it Now goes

to the quarterback.

He hands those brother right hands on the short game.

Nice tackle there Number 30 is that 32 30 even Is Romeo polar the water speed player the junior nice play good tackle on the outside

Oh, and they pull him after a nice tackle.

Connor Guzik's gonna head back out there after a race.

Nice play there by Romeo Pollock.

750

to go, it's 4th down and 3th.

This is a huge play in this ballgame.

Get a stop here, Gladz.

He's being pretty hard on it.

Yeah, it looks like 4th in the yard to half.

Looks like about 2.

I formation.

Hanging it under center.

Deep tail back, I believe it's Kangus.

They give us the Kangus right hand side and he's close.

I don't think he got it though.

That's gonna be real close.

This is a big play here.

Have we seen a signal yet?

I

think he just gave it to him.

He's got it first down.

Oh, that was clutch.

Nice run there.

And yet another Copper Island Academy first down.

He's had the ball for over four minutes, so the third quarter started off.

It's 7-20 and counting.

The ball is spotted at the 25-yard line, first down at 10, for the Eagles.

Credit to them.

They came right out in the second half and

just placed their way, yeah.

I formation.

Haining it under center.

Give it to the tail back, left-hand side.

That's Kangus.

He's got himself a couple.

Pretty good defense there, though.

Not much.

It's always hard to tell by this angle, isn't it?

It looks like three.

Oh, you get four on the board.

No way.

That's three.

Clear as

day.

It's under seven to go.

They're going to call it second down and six on the big board.

The ball is spotted at the 22 yard line.

That clock keeps on ticking away.

I don't find a way to get a stop

here on this drive.

They do.

You got Kengis have full back, Hayden ends that tail.

They're under eye again, shockingly.

Kengis in motion, left hand side.

Give is to Kengis on a trap plate to the right.

Nice play.

He's got himself a handful, near the first down marker again.

I think he's going to be short, but it's going to be third and short, maybe third and one.

And this clock is going to get two, six minutes.

That's half of the third quarter gone already.

One drive.

And Copper Academy just doesn't want to give the Glads a chance wisely.

They just had the ball.

Good drive by them.

I'd

say

they did a great job overcoming a first and 20.

That was big.

One play.

Eye formation, Kangus in motion, left-hand side.

And it's going to be a keeper to Hayden, and oh,

he's blasted

right at the stick.

I don't think he got a whole lot there.

Like that's Brian.

Kind

of.

Oh.

It

didn't get the first down.

It was a home strumming given credit to it.

That was a nice hit, however it was.

We're going to give credit to Holmstrom.

He's the

one that was surprised at the first

down.

Yes, he had another first down.

I think that's their third, at least, on this possession.

That clock will start ticking away again.

We're at 545 and counting.

That's if they can get the scoreboard's attention.

So far, no good.

Two referees waving their arms.

Now a whistle will get their attention.

There we go.

Now the clock's running.

Now it stops.

What do we got going on here now?

Come on.

Now I don't know what they're doing.

That clock should be running.

Now it is.

They're

going to make it trip down to probably 540 and then let them run a play here.

All right, there we go.

Five and a half to go.

Score is 16-nothing.

Copper Island.

Eye formation.

Kangus at full.

Hayden in that tail back.

Brother Vince under center.

Give us Hayden.

Oh, it's not a keeper.

He's going to try to throw.

He's got a man wide open in the end zone for a touchdown.

And it's a 15 yard strike.

Who caught that ball?

How do you catch it?

You give us 22?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's

going to go Wade Koskala from 15 yards.

And Hainan and with his second touchdown pass of the game, the score is 22-0.

And they took almost seven minutes out the clock.

That was a great possession by Copper Island, unfortunate for the Gladge there.

They just haven't been able to get momentum in there

way

much at

all

tonight.

And I give credit.

Copper Island, they've methodically moved the ball.

The majority of the game, they have moved the ball.

They haven't made huge splash plays necessarily.

It's

grinding.

It gives to Kangus.

No, it's not.

It's a keeper by Hayden and he finds a wide open receiver.

I

think

that's his brother.

It is.

So that's Hayden into Hayden and on the two point conversion the score is 24 to nothing.

Copper Island Academy.

And they scored again.

It starts the third quarter.

The gladiator's after it.

They got to move the ball, but this is it.

And I feel like if they get the ball back to Calumet, they might not see the ball again the rest of the game.

Maybe not.

I'm probably exaggerating a little bit there, but...

Got to get it back.

You do get it.

That goes without saying at halftime, like, really the first two possessions in so far.

It's only she's won.

Copper Island, they dominated their possession.

Yeah.

And so the Gladys have to answer here.

And with all three being two-point conversions on top of that...

They've

executed very well inside the five, no doubt.

They gotta get a spark here, like give me a big play.

Could it be right here, but who is the deep returner?

I'd be shocked if Dwight Costco kicks anywhere near him.

If he did, I betcha Coach would get mad at him.

Here we go.

Kicks it right down Broadway.

It's into the hands of that skin right hand side.

He's up to midfield.

He's to the 40 and he's going to score.

Clayton Kinn with a huge play on special teams and the gladiators are on the board.

24 to 6.

Hard to see how far.

I'm going to give him a 70R return there.

Why don't we just call it 70?

It's going to be something like that.

That's fair play, yeah.

65, 70, so.

Huge play.

That was,

yeah.

That was a huge play.

Don't even make your offense, see

the ball.

Clayton limps off the field, but he's just made a huge play.

Does it turn this game around kind of play?

We'll see.

On the two-point conversions, they're all going to be big here though because you need all of them.

Copper Island is three for three.

Clayton limps off the field, but he's made a huge play for his team.

He's had some bother earlier too.

Same thing.

Kind of hobbling around.

All right, shotgun set here.

Buzzo, the sophomore.

Got two running backs in front of him, running left-hand side.

He's going to be short, good defense by Copper Island.

But the score is 24-6 for a 508 to go here third quarter.

Gladiers are crawling back in the game just a little bit, but now they have to get a

stop.

Yeah, and

another one.

They're going to need... Yeah, I mean, they're still down three scores.

So they're going to need numerous stops, but a little turnover would help the cost here.

Sometimes you try to announce yourself into a turnover, right?

Maybe.

A little announcer's curse.

It works in basketball sometimes.

I swear I've missed free throws before.

He's made every free throw this season.

That'll get him.

So the copper island hasn't turned

a ball over all game.

And that's really where they've been to better teams.

They

have been.

They've just been fundamentally sound

all night.

You echo what their coach said.

We have to be fundamentals.

We're not big enough to not be fundamental and they have won that

battle.

Except for that one play on the kickoff that was,

you

know, they have containment, which they lost.

All right, Amos is going to kick 5-0-8 here to go.

24-6 is the score.

Glad down by 18.

Not over yet.

That kick is deep.

He's

going to go to Hayden and he's not going to field it cleanly though.

He's going to pick it up at about the 10 yard line.

Oh, nice block there.

We've got a glad down out of bounds.

And instead of working his way to the 25-yard line, he's pushed out of bounds, and the 29 has Cooper more than a neck out.

I'd like to see some

laundry for that.

They are going to call an illegal block there.

He

should.

That was dirty.

And Coop is, he's shaking up.

Yeah.

And they are going to call, it's going to be some kind of illegal block, I'm sure of it.

Legal block in the back.

Should be personal.

That's.

possibly a half to distance to the goal line kind of play there.

Matter of fact, I think that's what the call is.

We'll see.

The flag is at about the 19 yard line.

Copper Island is going to be backed up way in their own territory.

Just win first down here.

And create an opportunity for your offense to get back on the field in good field position.

He's actually going to count off steps.

Is that a 10 yard penalty maybe?

Going

across the field, that's a little weird.

I don't

know if we should count them off.

No, that's a half the difference penalty.

They're going to spot it just inside the ten yard line.

It'll be first down at ten.

We have four fifty-eight left, third quarter.

Third quarter sponsors, Yonsei County Telephone Company, Midway Telephone Company, and Jamadot.

All right, here we go, 24-sixth Copper Island with the lead.

Long field ahead of them now.

Guys, they do.

This is a big play here.

Hanging in shotgun, running back to his left.

That's hanging.

Play action pass, rolling right.

Throwing right.

Got him, man.

It's

his

brother, but it's over his head.

And it's Pabula on the coverage.

He was there.

I don't know if he was right there, though, but the pass is overthrown.

Doesn't matter.

Second down and 10.

Kind of ran out of time just had to wing it.

I like what they're doing, though, so they have two receivers out right.

Their quarterback rolls right.

Yeah, goes the way it would.

Yes, do that.

Because they don't have a team that can block for four seconds out past either.

No,

you

gotta find ways to get the ball out quick.

You do.

I don't know if I would have ran there though, or thrown.

They ran them all so well last drive.

Come on and try to throw it.

All

right guys, tail back is Koskala.

Hanging under center.

The pitch is to Koskala right hand side.

Oh, he's stocked.

Nice tackle there.

Gained a very little.

Is that going to be homestorming up?

Yes it is.

Dropped him in his track.

No gain.

It's third down and ten.

This is a big play here.

He's 62 heading out there, Logan

Beck.

Conor Guza came limping off a little bit gingerly.

Cramped in there.

That looks like cramped.

Oh my goodness, he's going to throw up.

Hopefully he's

okay.

All right, 4.19 to go.

Third down and ten.

Come on, Glad's going to stop here.

It looks like it's going to be eye formation.

Tail back is Koskala.

Hated it under center and it's a play-action pass looking right-hand side throwing to the deep guy and it is incomplete I believe call it a bound They call it a catch.

It's a great catch by Stanley.

No, it's not that's Wade Costco at number 22 on the grab.

Oh My that was pretty good defense.

He's

there.

He still made the play first down They pick it up on a third and ten.

Oh

I wish

we could have a view of

that.

Yeah, it was hard for us to make the call obviously, because my point of view is way out of bounds, but of course I can't see that sideline at all.

All

right, eye formation.

Hanging in under center.

First and 10.

Top round.

Oh, it's a football!

And it goes nowhere.

He picks it back up, and it's going to be a loss of one.

We'll see where they spot this one would be second down in something or other 345 clock ticking 24 to 6 is the score.

Copper Island lead.

You gotta get it back soon though I think.

Say it again?

You gotta get the ball back soon though I think.

If they march the ball down and score here, I mean we're gonna be deep in the fourth quarter I imagine.

I formation hanging on another center.

Second down 11.

I think that's Kangus in motion towards us.

Pitch is towards us.

Never mind, that's the case, and a nice tackle there.

Number 35 is Cam Logie.

He's played well tonight.

Oh, Ryan was on a mission to

get

there,

too.

He's a good middle linebacker.

I think he's a good player.

We got a third down and nine upcoming.

They just converted a third down and 10 on the last set.

We have three minutes left in the third quarter.

It just feels like Copper Island has just had the ball, which they have for this entire quarter, with the exception of a kick return.

One two-point try.

One two-point try.

All right, they've got double wide receivers.

One of them being Kangus and the other one's being Hananin.

Vince Hananin's in the shotgun.

Wide receivers are towards us on his left.

He's looking left all the way.

He's got time.

Now he throws left to the underneath man.

That's Kangus.

There's a flag in the play.

Oh, Kangus makes a couple guys miss and stumbles up near the first down.

Be a holding call for me there, please, sir.

It's got to be, doesn't it?

Then the back view.

He's a shifty player there.

He probably only had five or six yards.

He turned it into ten.

It's all gonna be academic though, I hope.

And the call is holding offense.

Bring it back.

That probably would have been another first down.

He was right off the stick again.

Nonetheless, they will con out ten yards here.

It's gonna be third down and twenty.

They've got themselves in a couple really good situations now.

There's a first in 20, a third in 10, and now a third in 20.

They have to win this battle right here.

You've got to kind of have an idea at this point in the game what they want to do.

And they've been hitting those dump routes in space.

I was thinking they were going to run that double crossing and throw it underneath, but they're not.

It's a tight formation.

Quarterback is in a shotgun set.

I believe he's got Kangus next to him.

The fake to Kangus are looking to pass.

He's looking right hand

side.

Now he

goes left.

Man, wide open is his brother.

Oh, it's

over his head.

My goodness, that was open.

And that would have been enough for first down, but they can't connect.

And they're going to have to punt on fourth.

And the scoreboard says 18.

I'm not buying that.

My math isn't the best, but there's no way.

A little more.

At least fourth and 19.

We're like fourth and 20.

50.

You just punted right to Brody.

Oh, yep, Brody back there.

See the momentum swung just a little bit.

Yeah.

If the

Gladiators can do something here, this is a dangerous play for Copper Island.

The dangerous guy to kick it to.

If the Glads can kick it to, there's just not much of a rush.

And Babouli is going to feel that.

He's going to catch it at the 49 yard line, goes to his left.

He's at the 40, to the 35.

A little bit of room, breaks the inside.

No, he doesn't.

He's dumped.

Nice tackle.

I got to give credit to somebody if I can team it.

Number 10, that's Vince Haydenin with a great tackle out there.

Nice when

your quarterback can make plays like

that, eh?

Yeah, it's a good

play.

Nice

return by Bamboula though, so he still, it was from the 49 yard line of the gladiator team and he gets all the way up to, you know, with a 33 yard line, they're going to spot that.

About a 15 yard

return, anyway.

Yeah, I thought he was going to have a whole bunch more, but Vince Haydenin made a nice play.

2-0-3 to go third quarter, glad to take over.

We have one wide receiver to the right-hand side that's moiling in.

Holmstrom is at full back.

We've got Wabula at tail.

It's going to be a pitch to Wabula right-hand side.

He's got the edge.

And he's tackled by Hayden in the game, but not after picking up about 14 yards.

It's the first down in a year.

We need more

of that outside pitch.

Just let Ryan find a lane for

him.

Yeah, I saw Ryan actually block the guy in the backfield, but he didn't wipe a guy out, clearing the way for Wabula.

And they managed to turn the corner.

On number 50, that was Calvin Anderson, who was not there that time.

They finally were able to hook him.

And that's what it takes, just a guy to get out there and disrupt.

And when you have a fullback like Ryan, he's going to do that at some point.

Yeah, Mabula's fast.

If you get hit in the edge, he's going to get 10 yards of pop pretty easy.

Eye formation again.

To give it to Holmstrom, he's right at the middle.

Give him a few.

Probably a gain of four, at least three.

He's up to the 15-yard line.

But that's forward, right?

All right, fine.

That's a fine play on first down.

They're going to give him four yards, give or take.

We're at a buck 15 left clock ticking.

It'll be second down and sixth.

They've got it spotted at the 15 yard line.

High formation again.

Holmstrom in the full back.

The blue lead tail.

Fuzzle under center.

Morelin' in white out right.

Nap is good.

Oh, it's give to Holmstrom left hand side.

He's wrestled down.

I think that was my hate in it, but not after he comes really close to another first

round.

I mean, right off the guard, he wasn't even touched.

I don't know if the backers hit each other or what really happened.

Nice play, you're right.

They've had good success with whatever play that is they're running.

And that was Victor Haney in it on the tackle.

Kind of like a trap, but...

I was thinking that might have been a trap.

It's a similar play, but it's off the center.

Yeah.

Alright, first and goal from the 7.

They give it to Holmstrom right hand side.

He's got a long room this time and he's going to stumble almost a touchdown, but not quite.

He's going to be within the one yard line now.

It'll be first and goal from the one.

There's 35 seconds and counting here.

Gladiators knocking on the door.

Got to try to get it in now.

They absolutely have to score.

I mean, they're from the inch line.

They don't score here.

Forget it.

It's 24 to 6, 24 seconds, clock ticking.

This is third quarter still, folks.

We got a lot of time left.

Give us the Holmstrom.

You got to give it to him.

He played really well on this drive.

He scores.

The Holmstrom with a 1 yard TD run.

The Holmstrom, that makes the score 24 to 12.

Just pound your way down in there.

The last 25 yards of the drive, the whole drive was on the ground.

A

lot of Holmstrom on that drive.

I think they found a little something up the middle.

I like that so you go home from up the middle a few times and then Mabula finds the room at the edge and he made a homer.

Yeah, that's exactly how the drag started too and

then... Here we go, Buzzo back to pass right hand side.

Got a man, it's Logie.

What a nice play that was.

For Cam, Logie.

And that makes the score 24-14 right back in it.

That

was a nice throw by Buzzo.

Youngster, sophomore quarterback.

He's pumped up.

And the Glads are pumped up 24-14.

We got a game, folks.

16.3 left, third quarter.

Just like that.

And now a lot of pressure falls right back onto Copper Island Academy.

They're going to need to move the ball.

This game is far from over.

So a lot of time.

See if we can jinx them into a turnover.

They haven't turned a ball over on a kickoff yet today.

Haven't turned it over at all.

You know this is going to be a swimmer of some kind.

I would not kick it cleanly to Victor Hayden.

Imagine his brother's out there somewhere, but I don't know where he is.

Maybe he's not out there.

I wouldn't kick it either of those guys, though, if you can

avoid it.

I'm

thinking you're right.

I don't see him out there.

I do see Kangus out there, though.

I think he's near us at the 40.

Amos,

they're going to kick, and it's going to be a swimmer.

That's going to hit inside the 20, and it rolls out of bounds.

We'll see if I'm right here.

I think you can take it where it goes out of bounds or at the 40.

Or you can make them kick it again.

You can do that, yeah.

Let's see what they've decided.

I'm

going

to more or less guarantee they're not going to take it where it went out of bounds.

Let's see what the referees are going to do.

I think they're just going to take it.

I didn't see them talk to their coach at all.

Or is it the 35 yard line they're going to set it?

It's a legal procedure.

That we agree

on.

I'm wrong on my rules.

They're going to spot the ball at the 35 yard line.

And Copper Island will take over.

First down and 10.

They lead up by 10.

Game is tight enough a lot in the last couple of minutes.

Shock on formation.

Hayden in has got a running back to his left.

I assume that's his brother.

It is.

Give to his brother.

That's Hayden in right.

Oh, he's

jumping the

backfield.

52.

Yep, 52.

Connor Duzik.

Nice tackle there.

Second down and 10.

The defense a little bit fired up all of a sudden.

And that will end the third quarter.

The score is 24-14.

Copper Island lead is Jan Sonaga and Ewan Charles Creek waters meet club.

We'll be back for the fourth quarter in 30

seconds.

WKY101 coverage of high school football.

We're about to enter the fourth quarter.

Your fourth core sponsor is the minor state bank of Hansen-Ogen score is 24-14.

Copper Island Academy Eagles are leading the hometown gladiator.

It was 16-0 at the half.

The game is tightened up quite a bit

though.

The

gladiator scored twice late in the third quarter.

Yeah, they're a really good drive from Copper Island.

Great drive to start the third second half.

Hanan is in shock.

That's Kangus in motion.

Fake to Kangus.

They're looking to pass.

Left-hand side with Don.

And he short-arms it as incomplete.

They're attempting to find Wade Kapskala.

And the beauty of that is five seconds comes off the clock.

I don't know why they're not trying to run the ball like they did on that first possession.

And

they've had a lot more success with it throughout the whole game.

I mean, at times they've been able to hit through the air, but why now?

I'm not sure.

Yeah, it's me.

We're going to run the ball like that for a possession.

What do I know?

Shotgun formation, two-wides to the right-hand side.

Hanging in motion.

Bakes a pass to his brother, then he takes off left-hand side with some room.

Nice tackle there, but he got about five or six.

Is that Brody on the tackle, maybe?

I do see Pobolo over there.

Ryan is in on it.

Yeah, Holmstrom just getting up.

Nice Gainer though.

It's gonna bring up a huge play.

We've got a fourth down and probably two.

That's a

Janer.

Maybe a little past the 40, but...

Cole doesn't like this spot.

He's got a moment at the 45.

Once again, that's the first rule of radio.

Nobody cares about you.

Alright, fourth down and two.

11-15 here to go.

This is a huge play, folks.

Gonna be a shotgun.

Wide receivers on each side.

Hayden is going to run with this ball I'm thinking that wide receiver towards us went early Hayden and keeps it left hand side and stumbles past the 45.

I think he's going to have a first down I Thought the wide receiver towards us jumped the gun, but when it jumps again, it doesn't matter what I think 11 minutes left in this game Glad trail by 10 first down and 10 Copper Island.

I'd be shocked.

They don't run the ball here, right?

You got to keep it on the

ground But this is where the defense you

You got to stop that right now, right?

That's

the

last one you're giving up.

You got to come up with a stop now.

He'll be running right hand side.

It's, oh, hey, no, he's drilled by number 12.

Jacob Hurst.

Nice play, the senior.

Just drilled him.

He's shaken up as well, though I think that's down.

No.

No, it's not.

Who is that?

Oh, we got an ankle that's majoring.

He's going to walk off in his own power, but he's favoring his right ankle.

And they gave him the time

now.

We're going to have 10-32 here to go.

Coach Preston Manos helps him over to the sideline.

It's going to be second down in seven when play resumes.

10-32 here left in this game.

All right, here we go.

Copper Island's back in their huddle.

Clock running, 10 and a half.

Got to get this ball back, though.

Deepa answers with God to find a way to get them all back.

They do.

I mean, at this point in the game, you can't give up another score.

Time's starting to matter, too.

Wide receiver is split out on each side.

Hanging in his motion.

He's going to have a give up.

A sweeper to the right-hand side.

He's got the edge.

Oh, and he's stuck, says Mabula.

Nice tackle there.

Gained up a few, but it's going to be third down.

I'd say third and four, probably something like that.

Nice tackle by Mabula.

The little guys on this team, your brother and Mabula both hit.

They have cornerbacks that come up in tackle.

Yeah, they do.

Oh, they call it face mask.

That couldn't have been on the tackle, was it?

I

thought he hit him in the way.

I don't

see how it would have been.

He hit him right at the

hip.

That's got to be a face mask away from that play.

It has to be.

Oh, and that's going to nullify a third down and five.

It'll be first down and 10 instead.

And it turns into a pretty big gain.

The ball is spotted at the 34 yard line of the gladiators.

There's ten minutes and six seconds left and we've got another guy coming up the field gingerly is that number 12 it looks like that first The germ sitting on the bench to he's being looked over by Josh Drew The AD slash physical trainer two wides one of these side kangits in motion Snap is low.

They tried to fake hand off the case.

Oh, he's smashed again.

Nice hit.

No face mask there either.

That was the bullet again

They're picking in and off the ground.

He got there.

Nice hit.

I love it.

Clean head up.

Just go right through.

Brody's getting sick of seeing that play.

He's had enough of it.

Couple nice hits on this drive.

It's going to be second down and nine.

We have nine and a half minutes left in this game.

The ball is at the 33 yard line of the Gladiator.

Got to get a stop.

I'd like to see somebody get in the backfield

here.

That's the biggest issue they've had, stopping to run so far.

They haven't had a whole lot of guys in the backfield.

You know, at times, the edge rushers have made plays, but...

There we go, I formation.

It's gonna be a fake pitch to the left.

Oh, it's that trap.

It didn't work this time.

Kegas is stuffed in the backfield.

Believe that's Holmstrom.

I'd like to guess.

No, it's not.

That's 62.

That's Logan's back.

That met him in the backfield.

Okay.

Hey, we were just talking.

You mentioned that you thought Logan might have that tackle he gave credit to music.

We'll call his name anyway, even a nice play there.

It's 3rd down to 11, 845 to go.

But we just set it into existence.

It's a big

defensive line play.

I want to say that's that trap play, but he beat it that time.

Yeah, and they just kind of bobbled the exchange.

That's all it takes.

3rd and 11, 8.5 to go.

Shotgun set, wide receivers split out on each side.

Kengis in motion to the left.

They're gonna fake to Kengis back to pass.

He's got a slant.

It is covered very well.

He's gonna throw it there anyway.

Nice play, good defensive stand by the gladiators.

And I get it.

The kid's gonna throw the ball, but that was very well covered.

That was double teamed over there.

He

was all over it.

I mean, he had it at the middle of the field when he looked for it.

He had it all the way on this side when he was just throwing up for Hale.

So that's good.

Good coverage.

Great coverage.

And Hanan then makes some of a mistake there.

I mean, it was third down.

He just kind of think, oh, I'm just going to throw it in there and give him the long kill.

Anyway, I did

try to make a play there.

But then again, it's only a third down.

He would have had one more track if he just threw it into the cheap seats or taken off.

And

nonetheless.

He has done that a couple of times.

All right, we've got eye formation.

Buzzo under center.

The pitch is right hand side.

It's a nice block by Holmstrom.

Knocks the guy out.

And a nice 15 yard carry by Baboula up

to the 30

yard line.

And now they're getting big chunk plays all of a sudden.

That's gonna be a first down in ten.

I like the urgency too.

It's kind of all moving.

Moving with a reason here.

They have to show some urgency.

Looks like they're gonna pull pubs off.

Oh, they're gonna pull pubs out.

You're correct on that.

Eight minutes left.

Fuzzle will be under center.

We've got Majorna's a while to the left.

I think that's home strum is at Amon's tail back, I believe.

And the snap is...

Good pitch, they aim us nothing there.

Just everybody in the backfield for Copper Island and that's going to be a loss of a couple.

Execution just not there at all on that one.

No.

They're going to call it a loss, so it's got to be at least two.

The scoreboard says three.

It'll be second down to 13, spot the ball to 27.

We've got seven and a half minutes to go in this game.

24-14, Copper Island leads the Gladiator.

The blue is still on the sideline.

Amos is going to be the tail back.

Buzzo under center, Holmstrom at full back, 720 to go.

And back to passes Buzzo and he's got no time at all.

He's going to try to throw out as he's falling down and he fumbles.

I think that's recovered by the gladiators.

Ooh, that was almost a big mistake there.

Just no time at all there for Buzzo to do anything except for get tackled.

Yeah, just unfortunate.

This drive started so promising with a big gouge play, but now they've gone backwards on back-to-back plays.

We're under seven minutes to go.

Balls at the 19-yard line.

24-14 is the score.

In about 20-21 maybe?

You gotta get 10 yards here.

I mean, they gotta go

for 4 if they think, right?

If they need these.

It's that time of game, I think, where

you go no matter what at this point.

All right, shotgun formation, buzzle back to pass.

He's got time this time.

He's going to throw left-hand side, passes up, and it is batted around.

There's five players there and knocked out of bounds.

Incomplete, Majurian, and Babula were both in the vicinity along with three Copper Island players.

It is fourth down and forever.

Unfortunately, I think they've got a kick here.

I don't think they can just bottom the ball deep in their own territory.

There's only six and a half left, and they need to score twice.

Yeah, I would have liked to see something shorter.

I think you almost

had to.

Instead of trying to get the whole 20, you know?

Well, now they're in it.

They have to get a fourth down and 20 conversion here, 629 left.

After the turnover, they had one big play, but the last several have not gone well.

Two wide receivers, right-hand side.

There's a little confusion out there.

They've got Kamlo, you can line up properly now.

It's three wide.

They're going to call it timeout, I think.

Yes, Hansen-Augen is going to call it timeout.

We'll take it with them.

24-14 is the score.

Welcome back to WKY101 coverage of high school football.

We have 629 left in this one.

The hometown team trails it 24-14.

They've got a fourth in forever, or a fourth in 21 if you will.

Others saying fourth in 20.

I still don't agree with that though.

We'll call fourth in 20 though, that's fine.

They're gonna go four wide, three to the right, one to the left.

Holmstrom is by himself on the left hand side.

He's gonna be by man to man for sure.

Fuzzle back to pass.

They don't have enough blockers for a four-man rush and they did rush four people.

Fuzzle is going to run right.

He's going to try to get the sideline.

He does.

He's to the 30.

He's to the 40.

He's got a first down up to the 45.

You're midfield.

Right at midfield.

What a great run by the youngster.

Fuzzle with a huge play there.

Much needed.

That's about a 30 yard run.

And a huge first down for the gladiators that keep the game

interesting.

Big

play.

and they do indeed spot it right at midfield first and ten gladiators 6-18 to go huge play by the young quarterback there Brayden Buzzo the first down on fourth and forever I formation homes from that full back the tail I assume is baboula back to pass this buzz oh he's got a little bit of time throws right side finds his man that's 35 is who wrote even though he

picked up a block right in the middle of that backfield that probably saved that play

you can walk

heck of a job

They're going to call it an 8 yard gain.

That was Ken Logie, number 35 on the reception.

Clock stops, 6-0-3.

That's a perfect play.

If you're a gladiator fan, they say second and one ball spotted at about the 41 yard line.

And gladiators trail by two scores, so obviously they're going to have to score here.

They're not going to get a whole lot more possessions, I wouldn't imagine.

I formation, buzzle under center.

And it's a pitch and cut back by the Bula right away.

Pretty good defense there by Copper Island.

They held containment at that time.

Had the edge.

They got the first down anyway though, I think.

Yeah, he muffled his way for a couple.

Which does stop the clock for

a second anyway.

Until they spot the ball and wind the clock, so you're right momentarily.

They really have to run play quickly here.

There isn't a ton of time left.

We're at 5.50 to go in this game.

24-14, still the score.

Gladiators marching though.

They've got a first in 10 at the Copper Island 40 yard line Got nine formation one wide split out to the right-hand side The buzzle pitches to Bamboula and the good containment there what an excellent play that was is that number 50 again?

It is that's Clay Anderson with a great tackle on Brody Bamboula He has played well for a majority of the game got beat a couple times in this half, but not on that one What are you checking there needs something to go

forward

Second down in 13.

5-15 and ticking.

One wide out right.

Eye formation.

Buzzo under center.

There's the snap.

Give it to Holmstrom.

Left hand side.

He's got some movement time.

Runs over

a man.

Spins out of a couple more.

He's got himself a nice gain there.

Give him 7.

We're more

than that.

That was second and 13.

Maybe only short by a yard or two.

Depends on where

they spotted.

They've got it spotted.

I think that's at the 42 yard line.

Oh, gain of 10.

That's a nice roll for him.

Pretty good there.

445 to go.

Third down and three.

I have formation again.

Give it to Holmstrom again here.

He only needs three.

And they fake it to him.

Pitch to Babula, but great defense again by number 50.

Oh, he's reversing field.

He's off to the left sideline.

I don't know if he got there or not.

Great defense again by Calvin Anderson.

He shut off that outside run to the right.

And he's out of bounds.

I have no idea where they're going to mark this one.

We'll find out soon.

They're

going to call that a first down.

They did.

They're going to spot that inside the 30.

It's probably 28 yard line, 29

maybe.

That looks like right in the middle.

Yeah.

Torbord says 33.

I think that is wrong.

It's going to be like the 27.

No, Torbord says 23.

I don't think that's right either.

There

they

go.

28 yard line.

I'll agree with that one.

Three wide's right at one left.

First and 10.

Four and a half to go.

Glad it's trailed by 10.

Fuzzles and shotgun.

He's trying to throw right hand side.

Throws it behind his guy.

That was a weird play.

See, Amos actually went in motion and was going to block.

Yeah, just the throw is just a bit behind him.

Couldn't quite get his hands on him.

Not the worst play either, though.

I mean, it's not a negative.

The clock stops.

There's 425 here to go.

You know they're going to skip kick it if they score.

That's a given.

And they have all three of their timeouts remaining.

That might come into play.

Second down to 10.

Three wise to the right.

And what they've been doing is motioning Amos into block here.

And they're going to do that again, I believe.

And they fake the handoff to him.

Buzzo's just going to run all the way right inside.

He's got some room.

Good block up there by Majurin.

Sets him off.

A couple tackles.

What a great run by Brayden Buzzo there.

He's tackled inside the five yard line.

That's going to gain him over 20.

That's a nice little

spin at the end.

Probably added five or six.

He's got 50 yards himself on this drive.

And he sets off the Gladiators with a first down and goal from the five yard line.

We've got 4.15 o'clock running now.

And maybe that's the third or fourth time they've called this number.

And he's made the most out of it tonight.

Give it to Holmstrom here.

And there it is.

No, it isn't.

Keep up Buzzo.

And he's going to run in.

That's a touchdown.

5 yard TD run by Brayden Buzzo.

The sophomore has scored.

And he's made the score 24 to 20.

And usually, two point conversions really matter a lot.

This one, not so much.

Either way, you score a touchdown, you take the lead again after.

It's really going to come down to can they get a stop?

There's only four minutes left in this game.

And if Copper Island will see what they're able to do, unfortunately, I'm going to have to turn the lights on at the next break, too, because I can't see in the booth anymore.

24-20, glad to trail it.

Fuzzle back to pass on the two-point conversion, off the left, and it's going to be dribbled and caught.

That's Logie with a great catch over there.

We're going to stay with it.

And that's his second.

2-point.

2-point conversion.

The score is 24 to 22.

If we do need a little break, you're 24-22.

Stick around, folks.

402 to the left.

We'll do that in 30 seconds.

Bold, independent, self-reliant.

They're more than just words on a resume.

They're representative of a confidence in both mindset and skill set that only comes from hands-on experience.

They're what set a Go-Gibbock Community College student apart.

Go-Gibbock grads enter their new career or bachelor's program with a bold perspective and a relaxed confidence.

I

think it's plenty of time, but they are going to need to stop

or

maybe the second turnover of the game wouldn't hurt

him.

Nonetheless, Amos will kick off first.

Don't you dare kick it deep.

He does kick it deep.

It's to the left of Hainan, and he fields it off one hop.

He's to the 15, he's to the 20, looking for space.

He's found it on the left-hand side.

He's still in his feet.

He's going to be up near the 40, but probably at the 37 yard liner.

So, for Copper Island, it'll take over first and 10.

That's

why I like the squid play.

You know, you're already at the 30, 35 when you get it

with

a

chance.

to maybe get them all back.

It's kind of dangerous to kick it deep.

There's just too much room out there.

Every team puts their best athlete back there.

So it's always a dangerous guy.

354

left in this game.

Gladiators have crawled back almost all the way.

One more

time

now.

They're discussing.

They know the situation.

They have to move the ball.

They don't want to give the ball back.

The offense is at Alamogno.

Big play.

Clayton Kin with that.

I'm going to call it a 65, 70 yard touchdown.

Big

return with the spark.

And that just got him off this night.

And since then, they've scored two more times.

22 on

it.

24 to

nothing.

Yeah, it was 24 to nothing.

That's right.

And then he scored to make it 24-6, and they have held Copper Island since then.

I mean, really, it was at Copper Island, their drive to come out in the second half, where they took half the third quarter.

They

haven't done a whole lot since.

Thanks to that, no.

But they did it once, and they've kind of, I don't want to say abandoned the run.

They abandoned the run.

But they haven't been running the ball.

No.

All right.

A lot more passing.

I'd be shocked they don't go back to running the ball more here, though.

You've got high formation, Hayden is under center.

I think his brother's at full back there, it looks like.

We'll see.

Give it to the tail back.

He's out the right hand side.

Not

much there.

Pretty good defense.

Holmström, Baboula.

And we'll see who gets up there.

That was right about that.

It was Kangus that was tailback on that play.

You're going to have credit to Holmström and Baboula on that tackle.

It's a short game, second down and nine.

DJ is right there too.

Now, DJ is playing left end on there, I think, right?

DJ Anderson?

He's right in front of us.

Three and a half year to go and I mean copper island and we saw the crystal falls do this last week And they played a real smart where they ran a clock down a lot every play We'll see how well copper island executes that same idea because that's what you want to do is just eat up the clock is More important than anything at this point.

Yeah And they're taking their time It's gonna be a shotgun set and then he's not gonna get this ball up.

There's no way he's gonna go right hand side

And he cuts up field with a little bit of room, breaks one tackle, and he's tripped up at a nice gain.

It's going to set up a third down in just a few.

And then the other question is, when do you start using your timeouts here too?

Defensively, yeah.

I kind of like the idea of you try to stop them without getting the first first down and then start using them as probably the right play.

I don't know why the clock has stopped here for that matter.

There it goes.

I don't know why it was stopped anyway.

Third down and one.

We've got 245 left in this game.

It's a big play.

It is a short short one.

Yeah Probably barely put the football between the yard marker and the first down marker.

It's got to be pretty tight two and a half here to go

Hayden

ends in the shotgun.

He's waiting for the referee to start counting down the play clock Which he will do right now two and a half to go as they snap the ball.

He's gonna keep it right hand side and he's gonna get the first down Nice hard run there by Vince Hayden in

This is where you got to maybe use your first one?

I think you should right here.

If you wait for three more plays, there's not going to be a whole lot of game left.

There's 220 left on the clock.

It's going to tick down to right around two minutes before they snap this next play.

Might even be under.

I'm thinking it's a 25 second play clock, I believe.

They spotted it at 220.

So we'll see if they snap it here.

We have 205 to go.

Clock ticking.

Referee hasn't signaled the play clock yet.

We're under two.

Shotgun formation.

One more to see where he's side.

Hayden then's got his hands on his hips.

He's not going to snap it until the ref makes him.

Now he's going to 150 left.

Snap is good.

Pass early.

Fake hand up to Kengis.

Hayden then keeps it.

Spins off two defenders and he's got a first down and a gain of a lot as well.

And he's inside the 40 yard line.

Oh, the gladiators.

Oh,

clutch two first downs by Copper Island.

140 to go.

Clock is ticking away.

Again, when do you start pulling the trigger on some of these timeouts?

You have all three.

Yeah, I think.

I mean, you might kind of wait till you get like you win a first down, which they haven't been able to do.

Yeah.

But now you're running out of time where they have to call it after this play, regardless of how this goes down.

Getting the gladiators trail by two but copper island has the ball and there's not a whole lot of time left here 115 left.

They're gonna snap it right around 110.

I imagine Now comes that 112.

Hey man keeping it all the way right inside He's got a little bit of room cuts back.

They're gonna call holding on this That'll stop the clock and move them back.

It looked like he got tackled trying to go through

that hole And it's hard to tell who that is.

It's either Becker That was

Beck.

That was Beck on that one who got

held

Did a great job making it through the gap, just got tackled as he did it.

That's a penetration, like he ruined their play.

If they're kind of forced them to tackle them.

And we

haven't had

enough

of

that throughout the game, I don't think.

No, I gotta give credit, so I mean, Copper Island for second varsity, they played well.

It's hard to discredit them, they played fine.

The Gladiators' first half, I say it was so, so second half they played pretty well.

Just isn't a whole bunch of time left.

It's going to be first down and 20.

Now you have to use a timeout after this play.

And I doubt if Hayden is going to hand this ball off.

It's going to be Vince Hayden in the shotgun.

Two wide receivers right hand side.

I'd be shocked if he doesn't run with this ball here.

His brother's in motion and it's a fake to his brother.

He keeps it right hand side.

He's got just a few actually pretty nice gains.

Probably five or six.

Now here comes the timeout with exactly one minute

left.

How do you break up that play?

You almost have to call a blitz and try to force a fumble or you're going to tackle for a loss.

They're going to be able to call two more timeouts.

First down here would end the game.

So they have to get a stop right now.

Even then, there's not going to be a ton of time, especially for wherever they're going to end up if they do get the ball back.

It's going to be a long field.

Not a lot of clocks left

a figure if they get stops on second and third down They're still gonna be able to run their whole play clock down until four to their fourth down play.

I think right?

So no wait, I'm wrong about that.

It'll be up They won't get to run the clock down.

That's the one row,

but

then so you're figuring still like maybe 40 seconds They have when they get the ball back.

That's not a ton of time But it is

Not over yet either.

It's still time.

But first things last.

They have to get a stop right here.

Second down in 14.

One minute to go in this game.

Gladier's trail by two.

Hannon's going to be in a shotgun set.

He's got Kangus as a wing to his left.

He's going to keep this all the way left-hand side.

Oh, there's a great movement by the Copper Island team there.

Good blocking.

He's up for seven, eight, 10.

And a first down.

And he's going to fumble for a first down.

And Copper Island is going to win a tight game, it looks like.

Glad he just got to call a timeout there, I think.

You just got to give up 15 on a second down run for it.

You notice it came down to this last possession, and only one guy carried the ball for Copper Island.

Yeah.

Number 10, that's Vince Heinenin, or Heynenin, rather.

He had every carry, and he has carried them.

I mean, presumably to a victory, they would need to turn the ball over with a bad snap or something like that here at the end of the game for it not to go that way.

Oh,

and a gladiator.

This was a really good effort in the second half, but it looks like they're going to come up short unless there's a big disaster here.

I've never announced a miracle yet either.

Could that happen?

I don't

know.

Didn't get to announce a game-winning buzzer beater one time, which is pretty cool.

And water is

neat.

Little metal lands action going to happen

now?

That'd be something else, right?

It has happened.

I want to say that play with the Giants years ago was that Kerm Edwards recovered a fumble on a play where they were going to kneel the ball down and score the touchdown.

He just

ran it.

Sit.

Stranger things have happened.

46.5 left.

They're in the victory celebration.

They're just going to have to execute two snaps, and they're going to win this football game.

And Hanan is under center, and he is successfully kneeled one time.

They'll have one more.

Wow, they might do two if they call a timeout here.

I don't know if they're going to bother or not, though.

Unfortunately, they're going to come up short here Labor Day weekend.

It might as well do my shameless plug.

I'll be all around selling 50-50 tickets all weekend.

Please buy them, folks.

We pay for your parade.

prayed prizes and bands and games and it's a fun weekend.

I'll be dressed rather obnoxiously and I'm very loud if you miss me you're blind.

There's 20 seconds left in this game, one more snap and I believe that's gonna do it.

And we witnessed the first ever victory for Copper Island Academy's football program.

They're gonna win this one 24-22.

Good comeback by the gladiators but they're gonna come up short.

And we're going to do a post-game show.

We won't take a lot of time getting back here, though, because I know folks got stuff to do.

WUPUI 101 coverage of high school football.

The gladiators unfortunately have fallen to 0 and 2.

They lose to Copper Island Academy 24-22.

Pretty crazy second half though.

It was 16-0 coming into the second half.

Copper Island Academy had a nice drive where they took up, I think it was six and a half, seven minutes on the opening possession.

Wade Costco ended up getting a 15 yard reception from Vince Hainanen that made the score 22-0 and then it was Hainanen to Hainanen that's Vince the victor on the two-point conversion to make it 24-0.

Clayton can't score on the following play.

We're not exactly sure how far it was.

We're going to call it a 65 to 70 yard kick return touchdown.

So a huge play by Clayton made it 24 to 6.

The two-point conversion failed, and that turned out to be a very big deal.

That was a 508 left in the third quarter.

Later on in the third was 16.3 seconds left.

Ryan Holmstrom had a one yard TD run to make it 24-12.

And then Braden Buzzal of the sophomore threw it to Cam Logie for a two-point conversion to make it 24-14.

Buzzo follows that up with a 5-yard TD run, later on to make it 24-20, and then Buzzo to Logi again on the 2-point conversion, making it 24-22.

However, they couldn't get the stop at the end, and Vince Hainan ran every play on that last possession to give Copperhide enough first downs to win the game.

All in all, pretty good effort.

How do the gladiators bounce back from this one now?

Got it, big D.

And it's not like they've played horrible games the first two weeks, it's just been...

only half games that they really played.

The first half they just struggled both games.

I thought moving the ball a lot better in the second half, but that first half they didn't move the ball at

all.

No, like none actually.

I mean they fumbled their opening drive and just kind of didn't get going for the rest of the half.

No, it's been a little bit of a struggle so far this year.

There's a lot of football left, though.

They have seven games.

I don't plan on being at the next one.

That'll be at powers.

That's a bit out of my price range of college, but it'll be back here in two weeks.

We're going to do the best summer game right here in Antonagon.

We've got stuff to do.

Glad year's fall to the Copper Island Academy Eagles 24-22.

They were spry, but the Copper Island team was just a little bit better.

They get their first victory, so congratulations to them.

And we'll see you in two weeks.

We've got the Copper Island Academy of Calumet kicking off the Ansonog and Gladiers.

I'm joined by Cole Kinn.

Say hi, real quick, Cole.

How is it going?

It's going good.

I'll try to do the pre-game as they're doing the opening kick here.

We're at Ansonog and tonight, the Gladiers are going to host the Calumet Copper Island Academy Eagles.

And the first kick is up is a swiver off to the left-hand side.

Glad's going from left to right.

There's Majur in picking it up, heading out to his right.

And he's going to be knocked out of bounds at about the 42-yard line.

What'll be first in 10 gladiators?

Now to try to do the pregame spiel as quick as I can here, the Calumet Copper Island Academy is a charter school that was founded in 2020.

They've had their athletic program since the school opened, including JV football.

This is their first varsity football season and only their second ever varsity game.

They lost last week on the road to Brimley by a score of 36 to nothing.

But Brimley is a decent squad.

They went four and five last year.

Now the Glads are going to line up.

Looks like a shotgun formation.

We'll do the starting lineup.

If I was presented by Al's Otto soon too, we got Brayden Buzzo.

We'll be in a shotgun set.

Looks like Colt, that's Baboula in motion to his left.

Baboula back to pass as Buzzo throws deep left hand style.

He's got Baboula, but it's knocked away.

Nice defensive play.

That's by number 23.

Here are the Kiamet Eagles team.

That's Stanley Kangus.

The coach told me he has to play good tonight.

Back to our pregame.

The Glad's first game didn't go quite as planned.

Crystal came in here and won pretty easily 44 to 6.

I did see some good things last game.

Those are Glad's.

Their tackling was very good.

Junior Clayton Kinn sat out the first quarter of the game and he was greatly missed.

He caused a turnover and also helped cause another turnover.

He had an interception off one of his passes.

I formation now.

It's the give to the right hand side.

I think that's Babula it is.

He goes literally nowhere.

It's going to be third down and long.

All right, Ken also had a handful of tackle.

Senior Ryan Holmstrom played well from his middle linebacker position as well.

Overall, the Glads tackling was solid.

However, their offense just wasn't able to do a whole lot.

They only got a handful of first downs.

They did have a 45-yard or a 75-yard touchdown run by Junior running back, Roti Babula.

He has to be productive for this offense to get going, so I expected him to get the ball probably 20 times this evening.

Now, the Glads are coming up here for a third down.

It looks like 10.

We've got 11 minutes to go, opening quarter, buzzle in the shotgun.

He's got Babool in motion.

It's a give to Babool up a pitch up the left-hand side, cuts it up.

Now that's kind of room there.

Oh, and I believe he's fumbled.

He has, and it's recovered by the Eagles.

And there's a turnover right away by the Gladiators.

Tough way to start your first

rock.

And now we're leading to that.

All right, now look at Cole in this.

Can the Gladiators bounce back?

And what do they need to do to get this offense moving?

I'm going to guess not turn a ball over because it starts.

That would be a good start.

But I believe they can bounce back.

They did show that.

They can play well in the last game.

I

think they showed glimmers.

The Eagles are going to line up.

They've got a tight end on each side.

It looks like eye formation.

Their quarterback starting is Vince Haydenin.

And his brother Victor is their lead tailback number 10 and 11.

And there's the give to Haydenin right hand side.

Not much there.

And he's bowled over by several gladiators.

See if we can get some numbers for you there.

That's hard to see him.

Hersch maybe?

Give that tackle to her.

So I'm fine with that.

You're starting offense for the start with Copper Island since they have the ball.

Their quarterback number 10 is Vince Heinenin.

Victor plays running back.

His brother wears number 11.

Another running back is Stanley Kangus.

He's more of their fullback.

He wears number 23.

He's lined back at your lineup as fullback on this play.

Eye formation again.

Tight ends on both sides for the Eagles.

Give it to the tailback.

That is actually Kangus.

He's got a couple.

They'll set down a third down in five.

Good start defensively couple stops early on short run.

This is big here first third down of the game Try to do some more Alice Otto Bruce crossing starting line-ups here.

We had Kangus at running back Cullen Bergman number 54.

He's a guard 22 is Wade Cascola.

He's one of their ends along with Nolan Kipala Where's number 21 center is Dean Penelope and number 50 Calvin Anderson plays the other guy we have a

Quarterback is by himself, two wings to the left.

He's going to be a keeper for Hayden.

Oh, and he stuffed his number 35 on that tackle.

Cam Logan.

Cam Logan, good call.

You can lie in from

that side.

That was fun to watch.

Nice stick there.

It's going to bring out about 4,000, about 4,000 and five or six, depending where they spot that ball.

We've got nine and a half left opening quarter.

And before, forget, we have a first quarter sponsor.

And it's the Berglin Bay Bar they just joined this week.

It is a 4,000 and five, nine and a half here to go.

Early test as a defense.

Can you stop them?

Get off the field.

You know, I said the defense played decent up in spots last week.

It kind of forgives the offensive mistake as well.

It's, you know, they go on a drive and don't score anything.

Absolutely got eye formation.

Kangus at full.

Hating in a tail.

And it's a give.

No, it's not.

It's a keep, pass, top left hand side to Kangus.

That's a beautiful play.

And he's got a first all nice block on the edge there.

by number 21.

It's a gain to inside the 10.

There is a flag on the play.

We'll see what that is.

It's going to be a first down, I believe.

They're going to call a face mask there.

Is that what I'm hearing?

Referee is not called anything yet.

He did throw it at the spot.

Interesting.

It's got to be something on the tackle, wouldn't you think?

It was right where it kind of went out of bounds.

They've got the ball spotted at the nine yard line.

Right now it looks like first and goal.

They may have just picked that flag up than they have.

Might have been just to spot it.

I think you might be right on that one.

It looks like an I formation again.

Number 24 playing fullback.

That's Dwight Koskala.

Tailback is hinting at him.

His brother will take the snap momentarily.

Give it to the tailback.

Oh, and he stopped.

Number 12.

Hurst.

Just hurst again.

It's a nice play.

Came right through the middle.

Didn't have a lot of push-up thrown from...

I think,

you know, last game the glass line didn't play exceptionally well, but I think they're a little old man against Crystal.

This is a better matchup for them.

I expected to play better tonight.

Yeah, it's more of a size comparison.

You know, it's a better matchup there for the gladiator.

Absolutely.

Their line needs to be big tonight.

Second down and nine.

We're under eight and a half here to go.

They put it at the 10 yard line.

Check that in as it is and goal.

Shotgun formation eight and then back.

It's a direct snap to Kangus, but he's fumbled it, and he's going to go nowhere.

A lot of gladiators in the vicinity.

You can give credit to a lot of different guys there.

I'm going to give it to number 33.

It's going to be Ryan Holmstrom.

We'll get a cheapy tackle there.

He's one of several.

Eight minutes to go here.

I'm going to play.

Take advantage of it anyway.

This is an opportunity to get off the field here again.

Two down, 16 yards.

A win-third down.

Wait, you got a win-third.

He went outside at 10, which

would be good.

From the Eagles point of view, I'm looking for seven or eight yards here.

Yeah, that's a different contact.

You got to try to at least get half of this offensively here to make it way more manageable on goal.

What do we got here?

There is a timeout for the Copper Island Academy.

So why don't we finish our starting lineup?

So I have a chance.

Sorry, Southern Federal Credit.

We didn't get much of a pregame show.

We don't know much about the Calumet team anyway, so I guess no harm done.

But we do have a starting lineup for the glad eaters on offense.

They're going to start number three.

That's Brayden Buzzo.

He's a junior.

One running back is Brody Babula.

He's also a junior.

He wears number one.

Their full back is Ryan Holmstrom wearing number 33.

He's a senior.

Wide receiver number seven is Clayton Kin.

He's a junior.

Tight end is Cam Logie.

He wears number 35.

He's also a junior.

Their line is Logan Back.

He's a junior.

Connor Guzik wears 52.

He's a junior.

And the other guard is William Anderson wearing number 19 is another junior.

They really only have two seniors on the team.

Jacob Hurst, who's called his number a few times already, Ryan Holmstrom.

And we're back.

738 here to go opening quarter.

Again, sponsored by the Birdwin Bay Bar.

738 on the clock.

It will run as soon as the ball snaps.

Two wide receivers left hand side, hanging in the shotgun by himself.

Snap is good.

Looking left.

He's got time.

Now he's out of time.

Throws it to his right.

Nobody's home.

It's going to bring up fourth down.

Good pressure there by Hurst again, number 19.

DJ Anderson is Anderson my bad giving the wrong guy credit.

Good call.

Oh good Here's a swarm back there.

There's a couple

Good pressure.

I think last game we didn't see that a whole bunch.

So you didn't see a ton of pressure now Crystal's online did a very good job buying time and it seemed like a lot of their passes were kind of on you know fake motions and kind of eye candy

I love the like

the bootleg.

Yeah,

you know you fake the run to the right and wheel out to your left

And it works because when you sell it hard and when you gain eight yards running

it the

first time they're

running the ball helps Hated in his shotgun.

There's two wide receivers was right one man in motion.

That's Kangus They're gonna fake the handoff to Kangus got one guy wide open to his right inside over a good tackle And that's gonna be a turnover on downs.

Who we giving credit there to?

It is Bob is Bobula with the tackle And the gladiators will take over still zero zero seven twenty six good stop by the glad defense

I've seen a lot of green over there when he kind of started

kicking

out over there.

A pretty clever play, but it only got him 7.

They needed 16.

On a sort of bootleg type big jet

sweep.

Yeah, I bet you about a thousand dollars they'll run that sweep to Kangus at some point this game.

We've got an eye formation.

Babu is the tail back.

I'm assuming it's Holmstrom at fold.

Give us the tail back.

That's Bobu.

Left hand side with some room.

Breaks one tackle, gets to the line.

He's up near the first down.

He's going to get the first down.

Where he's knocked out of bounds or wrestled down, whatever it was, it's going to be first down gladiators.

You need to see more of that.

Up the gut.

Give him some room.

Give him a lane.

Let him try to find space.

All right, I got the word from the studio.

Turn it up just a little bit.

Thank you, Robbie.

7-18, first-first down for the Gladiators there.

They went a long way last week without getting one, so that's a great start already.

Way better than the first series.

Already off to a better start.

All right, here we go.

I formation again.

One wide receiver right-hand side is Kin.

Baboula is the tail back, assuming Holmstrom at full.

And it's going to be a give to Baboula right-hand side.

Not much there.

The Eagles held up well in that play.

Not a lot of help up front on that one.

Didn't get a lot of push.

Let's say probably one yard there.

It'd be second down and nine.

As we cross the seven-minute mark in the opening quarter, Ball's got about the 21-yard line of Onsenaga, and they're going from our left to our right.

Eagles, of course, going in the direction.

No score yet.

Didn't see a ton of eye formation last week from Onsenaga.

I think they came out and tried to run it a little bit.

It just didn't really work out, but they're off.

I suppose there's not a field enough to see a lot of it either, though.

Didn't get the biggest sample size.

Oh, here we go.

Eye formation again.

Kinsfoot out left.

It's going to be a give to Holmstrom up the middle, breaks one tackle, runs into a swarm.

He's going to have a gain of a couple.

It's going to be third down and long though.

Got to get

something here.

You make it fourth and one, you think about it, but... Yeah, this

end of the field.

Third down at eight is the situation.

I think you get seven, and maybe you think about it.

I don't know if the coach has thought processes there, and it depends.

Eight is about to decent last week, I think.

Five or less, you know, no question

about it.

All right, Buzzo under center, I formation.

He is going to be back to pass looking left-hand side.

He's got a man.

He's open with a nice catch there, 35.

He's low-key, and he has a nice 20-yard gain up outside the 40.

Great play.

I like that play.

That's it.

That play-action pass.

You just mentioned it a second ago, and there you go.

It's a first down gladiator.

There's your second on this drive.

And a

really smart play call, especially.

I mean, it's third and eight.

Who do you think the ball's going to?

I like the fact that the ball is a good move.

I mean, everybody thinks he's going to get the ball, right?

Yeah.

Five and a half here to go opening quarter.

This looks like he's going to be a shotgun set this time.

It is Holmstrom next to Buzzo.

Fuzzle is going to keep it left-hand side.

No, he's not.

There's going to be illegal something here.

The ref blows the whistle.

That's a false start.

And they're going to back it up five yards.

That's not what we're looking for in a first down there.

No.

I don't know.

Maybe Fuzzle is still kind of in motion.

You wonder, everybody's got to be set before somebody goes in motion.

I'm wondering if they were set before he did or not.

I don't know.

We can't hear the referee.

We just saw the signal.

and sometimes they're not always exactly what they call themselves.

I think five-year penalty is a five-year penalty.

Anyway, you call it.

Clock is ticking, 5.15 here to go.

Can't move before the ball.

It's a big one.

They spotted us, the 38-yard line.

It's first down at 15 as we approach five minutes.

Buzzel's in shotgun, Holmstrom is right.

Baboula is off to his left, he's in motion.

And it's a pitch to Baboula off the right-hand side.

Good containment there by number 50 off the Eagles and very minimal gain.

Ooh, and I see some fist cuts after the play there.

I like it.

Holmstrom getting into it.

With number 10 is the quarterback Vince Hayden in.

Not sure what that was about.

Difference of opinion.

I did see that really good edge set though by number 50.

That's that containment.

Calvin Anderson, he started that garden.

I never give him some credit.

That was a good defensive play.

Did a great job to steal the edge.

Didn't allow Brody to go anywhere.

Alright, we got 2nd down, 13, 420 to go here, opening quarter.

Fuzzles in shock on Holmstrom goes right, a bull in motion.

It's going to be a give to Holmstrom up the middle, nothing doing.

Nice tackling there by the Eagles.

Too much penetration again.

And I'd like to see a little bit of a different look there.

You know, you only run for a yard on the last play, so going back to the very same Cree snap, I don't love Cree snap.

You don't see that, I have formation a little bit more maybe.

Give it to him.

Let him rip up the gut.

All right.

We got third down of 13 under four to go here opening quarter.

There is no score The Copper Island Academy of Calumet against the Astonoggin you and show Creek waters me gladiator puzzle under center I formation he's back to pass looking left got his man That's kid already dropped it at the first down marker.

That was a nice play

Yeah,

I don't know everything with a catch.

Yeah

Yeah,

I don't beat you

Yes, he did.

He was

decent coverage, but he did have a step on him across.

Oh, he knows it.

He'll hear about it later in the right call.

He will.

I like the execution.

He's got to catch it.

That's a great play call.

They run the slam.

It was there.

Nice throw by Buzzo.

It was a

really nice throw.

And he had time.

He had a little bit of time to set up and let it swing.

All right, here we go.

It's going to be a punt.

Looks like Amos is back there.

335 to go, 4th and 13, and they are going to punt.

It's not bad.

It's going to go right hand side, not a bound.

Probably about the 35 yard line.

We'll see where they mark this.

Looks like they agree.

Right at the 35 yard line.

And while we have just a moment, there's no score.

I'll do some of the live reads.

Make sure you buy some support or Labor Day fest.

All right, here we go.

Shotgun set.

This is Calumet.

Give us to the left-hand side.

That's Hayden, and he's got a few before he's knocked over.

He's got probably two or three yards.

Cooper Moylan in on the tackle.

I believe he's got that right.

Moylan with a nice play.

Not a real big guy, but he's playing inside and he's made some really nice plays through these first few games so far.

He's getting in there.

I thought he played spot duty at quarterback last week, and I think he did fine.

Yeah.

Especially for backup duty.

It was not

the issue offensively really was the quarterback being taken out.

Our guy formation here again.

Balance formation by Calumet.

Give his left hand side.

That's Kangus, only a couple.

What do you got there 35?

I'm going to give credit to is logy.

Good call.

Good job cutting up inside getting arms on the guy.

You got that third six.

I think the tackling this year has been very good.

So through the first, you know, five quarters so far it has been.

We've got two and a half left now, third and five.

Kind of a methodical game here so far.

I feel like we got a pretty even matchup tonight is what it looks like so far to me.

Calumet's gonna have overload on the right hand side shotgun set running back into the quarterback's left.

That's Hainan in This is when they're gonna snap it to either guy.

They fake to Kangus pass from Hainan and goes deep to his brother, but it's broken up I play again.

He did break it up.

It's a nice play Kind of had his back turned He's there.

He's up a little bit gingerly, but nice play there

They're

getting some sound out of his helmet.

Oh, he's good.

Got to help him out after he made a big play.

It's going to be fourth down and five.

I think this is one of those places.

This is where you

got to watch for a little boot out.

Maybe even the Jets lead, finally.

I was going to say, it's dimes to donuts.

They were going to go for fourth down here, but I'm wrong.

They're going to punt.

I don't trust it, but we'll see.

I'm going to guess that's a hand in the back to the punt.

It's not.

Number 22 is the puncher that's Koskala.

Punt is right hand side.

It's going to bounce out of bounds.

Oh boy, it keeps going.

Nice punt.

Gets inside the 20.

And that's where we'll be.

It'll be first in 10 gladiators with 2-0-3 here to go.

No score yet.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

WPY101 coverage of high school football.

Snap is a sloppy one.

He gets in the hands of Buzzo, but he's going to go nowhere.

Kangus tripped him up.

Good job.

This has saved the ball.

Yeah, that was a very good play by Buzzo.

You're right about that.

It's going to be a loss of, looks like, a couple.

Kind

of.

Buzzo, like five.

Not how you want to start a drive, either.

No, and

I think that last drive they had going, and then they got the penalty.

So this second, and then 15, or first, and 15 is not the situation they want.

They're behind the stick.

I do really think though, they're just one play away offensively, I think from hitting big.

Bubz is the guy that's explosive that's going to make a big play though.

They're going to get him the ball.

Bubz is looking to run right hand side and he's going to go nowhere.

That's Kangus again, I believe on the tackle and it is.

He's a good player.

We did talk to the coaches very briefly before the game and the Calumet Copper King, Clay Larson, he said they really need...

The two Haynes and Kangus to be big, and Kangus has been, as advertised, a very good defender so far.

He's been all over defensively.

I'm assuming he's their middle linebacker.

He'd be like Holmstrom's counterpart.

Yeah.

Yeah, and indeed he is.

I like to see them two clash in the middle a little bit.

I think it's going to happen here and they're taking this game, I assume, both sides of the ball.

55 seconds left, opening quarter, 3rd and 15.

Looks like an eye formation, buzzle back to pass, a little bit of time.

Now he's stepping up and he's going to get sacked.

Nice play by Calumet, both offenses struggling right now.

I just think if we lose five yards on first down, they're not going to pick up a whole bunch of first downs that way they have to win first down.

You've

got to win first down, at least go forward

a little bit.

I mean just a two yard gain on first is way better than minus five.

All right, fourth and 16, Amos is back to punt, 0-0 score, we've got over 20 seconds, just over.

And the punt is a high one right hand side.

It's going to be fielded by one of the Haynenin brothers out at the 45 yard line.

Misses one tackle.

Oh, break three now.

And then he's finally knocked to

the third by

Holmstrom.

And that was number 10.

That was Vince Haynenin.

So with 10.3 seconds left, this is the Eagles.

I want to say it's their best field position of the game.

Do I have that right?

They might

have been

a little deeper on the last effort.

Probably their best starting best starting for sure.

It's going to be at the they've got it at the 39 yard line.

It'll be first down and 10 Which will most likely be the last play of the opening quarter And you're right it has flown by relatively quickly.

We're only 20 minutes into this game All right, I formation eight in the center Kangus at full The other Hayden in that tail Kangus went motion to the right pitch to the right says hey here I ate it and cuts it back up decent run

Oh, he's wrestled down by Holmstrom.

After a gain of, I'm going to go with four.

And that will indeed end the opening quarter.

And it looks like that's a gain of, not sure.

We'll find out when we come back.

The score is 0-0.

We'll be back in 30 seconds.

Hello, folks, welcome back.

WBY101 coverage of high school football.

I am Willie Dupont.

I'm joined tonight by Cole Kin.

So far, we're going to Barber.

Nothing, nothing.

Nothing, nothing.

It's been a defensive game,

so far.

Good night.

The Glantz offense is still struggling.

I think their defense has been fine.

Really close matchup, though.

I think these teams are very even.

Just going to

be who can get that first big ball and if they can run with it.

I feel like it's gotta be Bubula.

You know, he had the one 75 yarder last game.

I mean, he's the real explosive guy.

I think your brother is capable there too.

I know he had a couple of big chunk plays last game.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a huge touchdown.

You know, we haven't really seen a team make a huge swinging play either way.

There hasn't been much either.

Shotgun set, one running back to the left, tail back to the left.

It's gonna be a keeper by Haynen and he's got a little bit of room.

Give him five or six.

I think that's Holmstrom that wrestled it down.

No, it's Ben.

Is that?

Is that Holmstrom?

Am I wrong on that one?

Yeah, I'm giving Holmstrom the credit on that one.

That was Vince Hayden with the keeper left hand side.

It's going to be third down and three.

But it has been a game

of, you know, so far, four, five, six yard runs.

You know, I think Bob Smith had an 11 yard run or so, but it's going to be who can get the first big ball.

I

think that 11 yard is the biggest play of the game so far.

I think so.

Alright big play here third down high formation.

We've got kengis and a pair of Hayden in the backfield kengis motions left It's a fumbled snap in the quarterback.

He's on the ground when he picked it back up Oh, he's doubled for a first down, but it's not gonna count.

It's gonna be fourth down and five Both teams have had a couple fumbled snaps at a crucial moment.

That's a killer for the Eagles

there That's a third and three.

I mean that's a very Manageable spa.

I mean you're still fourth and four fourth and five, but it's a little bit further

As a coach that's infuriating, you just give me a gain of, you know, a yard there is a big deal, not a loss of one.

Can you

do work hard again in

those situations, both ways?

All right, we got shotgun set, one ring back left.

We got a wing back on the left-hand side, too.

Ooh, that was almost offside.

It's going to be a run to Kangus, left-hand side, and he's, quote, he wrestles forward.

I think he's got it.

I think

they are going to give it to him.

I think they are.

That's going to be about a five-yard game by Stanley Kangus.

Oh, that's right at the stick.

They're going to have to measure that one.

Chain

game is going to head out there.

Got a good crew tonight, including Danny Kidd is one of them.

Derek Morris is out there as well as usual.

And I've got Pat Tucker and Caleb Price.

Looks like all

crew.

Don't be a hero and just don't fall down when they send you out there.

And they're gonna call it a oh boy, that's close.

They're gonna call it first down right at the stick.

I mean it is Cauchy right at the end of the ball.

Good job changing and good job by Calumet.

They have a first down and they are at the 29 yard line where it'll be first down at 10.

Still no score this game.

Ten and a half to go with second quarter.

Your second quarter sponsor is the Citizen's Day Bank.

Get on to Noggin.

Shotgun set, wing back right, running back to the left of the quarterback, Hayden in.

Snap is the Hayden in, give it to his brother, up the middle, not much.

Holmstrom's all over him right away.

He's been all over.

Rotting the Jiren in on the tackle.

Rotting number eight in there, good play.

Give him probably three yard gain.

I think a lot of that too, if you see Holmstrom making a bunch of tackles, that typically means their line is at least holding their own.

Yeah.

And giving him the opportunity to do what he's supposed to do.

And that does make a lot of it too.

Are your defensive linemen

Filling where they should it

is

and it'll open up place for your backers a lot of time

Alright shotgun set wing right running back to the left Hayden has got it.

He's gonna get it to his brother.

No, it's Kangus.

Oh, he's

stuck.

That was a nice hit there We give a credit to the 35 on the hit to give it to Logie there Crunch third out over

Can't play in a stellar game right

now.

I'm shocked if this is the same kid basketball You're so timid and I hear him out there yelling in pregame.

Oh, yeah

And he was a good basketball player.

Had a lot of discussions with Coach Besson about it.

Just tell him he's good so he believes he's a good player.

He is.

He is on the board, too.

All right, here we go.

Two wide receivers, right-hand side, third down and seven.

Shotgun set for Hayden in.

He's back to pass, looking right-hand side, looking for Kengis.

And it's over his head.

Pretty good coverage there by Clayton Kin.

And it brings up fourth down.

He's there.

With 9.07 left to go in the first half.

Of course, we'll have a half-time show as well.

Sponsored by Wysons pit stop bar and drill.

Another new sponsor this year.

I do

get the third and seventh pass.

But you've got to really trust it.

Yeah,

I don't

mind it.

I mean,

it's kind of there, but pretty good defense.

Yeah, it was a good defense.

It wasn't far off, but now you're stuck with fourth and seventh.

Now it's tough.

Eye formation, Hayden under center.

Kangus and Hayden are behind him.

The give is to nobody.

It's play action pass, throwing deep left hand side.

And oh, it's over, kid.

Nice play.

Wade Toscola from 28 yards out, and it makes the score 6 to nothing.

Wow, that was a nice play.

Kid was there, but it got over his head.

He just kind of started back pale and not really running with the guy.

Got out of position.

It was a good play.

It was a good play call.

Wow.

And there's the first score of the game, a 28-yard strike.

But that's what it was going to be.

You know, it had to be out a little bit.

I didn't necessarily see a team just go in and go in and go in.

No, those

are going to drive him in.

They had, I want to say it was that two first

outs and then they had a big play in, a fourth down.

All right, eye formation.

The fullback is number 24, that's Dwight Koskala.

He's in motion right hand side.

It's going to be a keep to hand it in who throws it to.

It's going to be a complete, it'll be a two point conversion to see who it is.

Is that 21 over there?

And that's

Kipala.

And the score is 8-2-0.

Gladiators trail it.

No, this is where the offense just has to decide, like, no, we can score.

We can move the ball.

Yeah.

And I'm going to assume that's probably, well, I know it is.

That's the first touchdown in Copper Island Academy football history.

It would be.

And it's a pass from Vince Haydenin.

to number the Cascola.

Number 22 Wade

Cascola.

It's a nice play.

Congratulations.

You're in the record books forever.

Now, we want to sit back here and come right back and tie the game.

With 9-0-1 to go, it is 8-0.

That's 9-0-1 in the first half.

8-0 Calumet.

They're going to kick to our right.

It's number 24 Dwight Cascola.

And he takes the left hand side and that's Baboula with it.

He's to the 30, gets around one man to the 35, to the 40, up to the 45.

Oh, runs on over another.

Nice run there by Brodie Baboula.

That will fire

you up by lineup.

He gets near midfield.

Nice return.

I'm going to give him about probably 25 yards on that one.

And it was an

accident too.

It was not supposed to go through there.

It flipped through the hands of Major.

We saw that last week.

The best kick return they had was a line driver, and I'm assuming that was never the plan.

No, you're

kind of rolling back, too.

All

right, glad he was in a great field position with March ready back down now.

It'll be Buzzo.

Looks like he's going to be under center.

He's got Holmstrom as the deep tail back.

Check that.

Mabula is going to line up in the deep tail.

Holmstrom in front of him in the eye formation.

Pitches to Mabula right hand side.

Tries to cut up.

That's really good defense again by number 50.

That's Calvin Anderson.

He's setting that edge.

They're not able to hook him.

Yeah.

You know, I make that adjustment.

If he's going to play upfield like that, give me the belly play where you wrap him out there and run right underneath him.

It would be the next step.

And I would say the middle of the field has been open a little bit to run.

I mean, they've hit on it here and there.

And we got second down to 10.

That was a gain, but they don't call it one.

It's a gain of a long nothing.

He'd often to roll a little bit

though.

They got it.

This is a big spot here.

Ball in your midfield.

Chaka and Snap coming to Buzzo.

He's got the ball in motion.

Buzzo's going to keep it left-hand side.

There's your run up the middle, but not for much.

He's got a few.

It's going to be third down.

Probably seven.

Maybe six.

I'm thinking seven.

It's forward though.

He's going backwards.

We're under eight minutes to go here in the first half.

Eight nothing.

Calumet leaves it.

It is going to be a third down and seven here.

You have to get you mean three or four or five yards here.

First time would be even better.

But they have to go forward on this play.

Happy.

Got to get something.

Looks like is that going to be a timeout?

No.

Equipment malfunction, maybe.

Yeah, that's what it is.

Not that.

I forget there.

This is high school football.

There are rules.

Game will stop because of that.

That more than we got on our left there in a wide position.

My formation in the back and I'll go back to pass and he's tackled as he throws and that doesn't know that's not gonna be a complete pass.

Oh No, I was down

He got tackled like kind of

awkward play there.

Hopefully he gets up.

They need him in this game.

He said nobody to block Yeah, there's pressure immediately on that play that's if you're on

a

It's

good that Calvin Anderson started that guard this evening and defensive end.

He has played well, fourth down and seven.

The ball is spotted at the Calumet 48 yard line.

Buzzo is going to come out for at least a play that's number eight heading out there is Majurin.

I think it's going to be Cooper at quarterback would be the guess.

I mean, you are on the plus side of the field, so.

I see Amos is out there.

We'll see where he lines up.

It is going to be Cooper Moylan and calling the play in the huddle and they got a boola on the sideline.

I don't know who you go to on this play.

I'm assuming they're going to try to pass.

Holmstrom's going to line up at fullback.

Amos is wide receiver to his left.

Main tailback.

I don't know whose number it is.

We can't see them.

Oh, and they got a false start by Amos, number 15.

That's going to bring it back even further.

I kind of wonder, do you punt now?

Yeah.

Oh, that was actually Brodie Majur and was lined up at tailback on that play.

It's going to be fourth down and 12.

if they are going on

now.

I think that's the right play.

It's not like Calumet's had a huge explosive offense.

You know, they got good field position.

Get them down there.

Your defense can make a play good enough to get the ball back, right?

I think so.

To me, it's the smart play of this game.

It's not really, you know, in jeopardy quite yet.

Don't make a mistake and give them the ball at the midfield.

That doesn't make sense to me.

That is a 5-yard penalty on the Gladiators.

It's going to be 4,012.

We're at 7 and a half minutes to go here in the first half.

Amos is out there.

He looks to punt.

Chelyamet didn't trust it.

Now they will.

It's going to be number 10 back there.

It's been tainted and starting quarterback.

Snap is just fine.

Punt is away and he's bumped.

No call.

Punt goes out of bounds at about the 29-yard line.

That's a fine play.

Now Amos is hurt.

Kind of a weird play.

He definitely ran into the punter.

Yeah, I don't

I'm not sure what they seen

there

No,

he's grabbing his left elbow left shoulder.

I guess we'll see if he goes, okay An awkward play kind of took like either a helmet or shoulder right to it That would happen maybe like a bruise.

He'll wake up with a bruised elbow tomorrow All right

It was well after he got it off, you know, that's how you're running into it.

Yeah, I Guess that's why we're not referees All right, shotgun snap here to Hainan and two wide receivers right one guy in motion is Kangus.

He's heading to his left Now it's gonna be a run to the left for Hainan and well-designed play.

He's got room to the 40 He's up near midfield.

The boo is the only guy to be all the boo hits them.

They have them up And wrestles them down with a nice play.

It's up to the 44 yard line

Oh, that's a gain of 25 plus there.

He went nowhere though after he got that little stick from Brody.

Nice tackle by Bulley.

You don't see somebody get hit like that.

That's hard downfield.

I mean, he went nowhere after that

either.

Not down.

This is a get-check time for the Gladys.

They have to stop him now.

It would be a great time.

Got to show some fire here.

It's obviously, even if you do go two scores down, it's not the end of the world.

But you gotta show some fire here.

Momentum is twitching against the Gladiators pretty

fast.

I agree.

The Eagles have all the mojo right now.

Hated in the shotgun.

Two wide receivers, two is left.

He's gonna run left.

Got a little bit of room.

I got three, four yards.

I'm gonna give him a jury and credit on that tackle number eight.

That's actually Kangus in the back.

Was that 23 that ran that one?

Yeah.

Short game though.

Nice tackle there by Major.

It's gonna be second down, probably seven or eight.

They call it seven on the big board.

We're just under six and a half minutes left here first half Calumet leads it eight to zero And they line up at the 42 yard line 41 yard line check that of the gladiators And it ends under center He's got an eye formation behind him And give to the fullback is Koskala he goes Backward nice play there who had to tackle like this that one my bad is that 52 thank you was

Him

and

Ryan, maybe?

Connor and Ryan?

We're going to give Guzik and Holmstrom credit on that tackle.

It's a loss of a couple.

Brings up a third down and nine.

Kind of a trap that didn't go anywhere.

Those traps, I mean, it's a play you throw up there once in a while just to catch someone off guard, make them think for the rest of the game.

Yeah.

We've got a shotgun set here.

Hated him.

That QB, two wides to his left.

He's got a little bit of time.

Coming with pressure here.

Number 19 around the edge.

Doesn't tackle him.

Now he's running to his right.

Oh, nice block there.

He's got a first down to the 30 inside the 25 yard line.

He's finally knocked out of bounds by number 28.

It's Cooper Moylanen.

Nice play there by Hayden in.

DJ

Anderson.

I thought it was BJ.

He didn't have a

nice player

on the

edge, but quarterback just made a play to

knock it.

Oh, and that's a backbreaker.

Nice first down.

Good run there.

That was Vince Hainan in.

The ball is up to the 25-yard line.

We have 5-24, clock temporarily frozen.

Gladstrail at 8-0.

They got to get a stop.

You don't go down, too.

Copper Island is doing a better job, though, moving

the ball offensively.

They've been spryed throughout the second quarter.

Shotgun set.

Two y's to the left.

Hainan has got it.

Looking left.

He's got time.

Finds a guy wide open.

That's number 21.

That's Kilpelah.

He's running up field up to the 10.

where he's tackled by a group of gladiators, but not after he picks up 15 yards, and yet another, Calumet first down.

Too much.

Too much.

I like the design there.

The two wides both run crossing routes to the right-hand side, and they snuck a tight end over there in a flat.

He's wide open.

He was.

They've done that a couple times where they just kind of sneak out that little dump rail to a tight end, and they've been open.

Pretty

much every time.

They ran that same play in that fourth and 16.

I know they only got seven, but it looked like there was more.

That was that same play.

I'd be willing to bat.

All right, eye formation, tight end right hand side.

Now we got a guy in motion that's Kangus to the left.

It's a fake pitch and a give to Kangus up the middle.

Oh, nice stick, but he's got himself a few.

That was Kinn on the tackle.

Pobula.

You think Pobula there?

Yeah, it was number one.

How does Pobula, that one and seven get me?

Pobula on the tackle there, good call.

Gain of a few it's gonna be second down and six or seven Big board says five.

I guess I'm way off on that one.

That is five yards.

No way four and a half to go here They've got the ball spotted on the six yard line And it is five Somewhere in the middle Close enough for government work, right?

Gotta make a stop though.

This is big.

I keep saying it and I keep marching Now be a good time as any folks

Hayden is in the shotgun.

His brother's to his left.

We got a wing back to the right.

I believe that's Kangus.

Snap is to Hayden that runs the option, gets it to his brother, left hand side.

Number 11 cuts back, and he is going to score.

From six yards out, that's Victor Hayden

in,

and he has a six yard TD run.

And that makes the score 14 to nothing.

Calumet, oh no.

Ken Logie was an edge on that side, and he was just kind of put on a string with the option.

You just wonder, you know, like I know that play, somebody has the responsibility.

Is it the quarterback or is it the running back?

And we're not going to know.

But you're right, it

was two on one out

there.

Yeah, it was

just no way to beat daddy.

I've got Copscala line up as a fullback.

Snap is the ain't it in.

Ain't it going to keep it looking to throw a little bit of pressure, runs away to his left hand side and cruises in for the two-point conversion.

And that makes the score 16 to nothing Calumet.

Ouch.

Glad to have the ball here though.

We have about 359 here to go in the second quarter.

Of course, we'll talk a little bit at halftime, which will be presented by Wiseman's pit stop, Bar, and Grill.

Thank you to all of our sponsors We'll try to give you one more reason the second half Time permits In the meantime glad you're gonna move the ball here.

I mean we've been preaching it now for two quarters

I don't know I like that slam play like give me that play

So to Ken once more, at least some point, maybe not this quarter, but in the second.

And they've got to find Baboula some room.

Got

to find him.

Swiver left-hand side.

They got to get that ball.

And they do.

That's more than it was the heads-up play.

That's up to the 42-yard line, I believe.

And you see, Majura was out there too.

I know he got picked on last week for now.

He covered an onsite kick.

That's what he was going for.

Yeah.

With a lot of effort.

So I believe the coach has talked to him last week.

I'm assuming.

I would believe so.

I mean, can't stand on top of it, not.

So you have to go get that ball.

All right.

Glad it's a good field position as a result of the onside kick.

357 here to go in the first half.

Looks like a trips wide receiver formation to the left, one wide out to the right.

Does that buzzle back out there?

Believe it is.

And we have, it looks like a timeout.

So the score is 16-nothing.

Calumet leading the Antonagon Gladiators.

357 here to go in the half.

And we'll come back in 30 seconds.

As the leaves change in Antonagon, one thing stays the same.

Hello and welcome back.

WPY 101 coverage of high school football gladiators with the ball first down at 10.

We have a four wide set, three wide left, one to the right.

Puzzles in shotgun, Baboula in motion.

It's a pitch to Baboula, right hand side goes right up the middle and he's got a gain of probably five yards.

It's a nice play.

Hard to say as the guy, you know, up here, not on the field with the ball, but the jet sweep's got to go outside.

He wants that

play outside.

And I think Calumet has done a good job of contain

they

have and they forced our players to run upfield rather than around the edges And I think not so long it's got some good speed, but they just can't get to where it matters yet.

No You got a formation all instrument full back.

I believe that's the bullet tail Give us to the bullet right hand side and he jumps over one guy and he's tackled up near the midfield It's gonna be third down very manageable third down and free for their about

Not good as a running back though and you got a

hurdle here down line.

They've the scoreboard says third and five.

There's no way I'm gonna go third and another they go third and four.

I'll buy that one.

We're under three minutes to go here in the first half.

I formation, Holmstrom and Bamboula.

Buzzo under center.

He's got more than as a whiteout to his right hand side.

Give his two Bamboula tail and he's just gonna muscle his way forward for a nice first down.

That was a hard run there.

I was 45.

He took a couple shots and just kept going.

Hey, at this point in the game, he's like, coach, just give me the ball.

Yeah.

And so far, so good.

That's the first down for the Gladiators, their first one in a while.

And even last week, it wasn't like he got a bull load of carries.

No one.

I talked about that last year.

I think he got the ball kind of too much sometimes.

But he could definitely get the ball 15 to 20 times in a game.

That's fine.

He maybe got a 10 last week with minimal results other than one huge play.

All right, I formation again.

Give it a two-buzzle again.

Not a buzzle.

Sorry, that's Papula.

And he's got another nice run up here to 40.

And he's getting five yards of crack right now.

Just keep letting him.

You know, if you're breasting.

We got 2.15 here to go to give him a gain of four.

It'll be second down and six.

And the ball is spotted just outside the 40-yard line of Calumet.

I like it, though.

It's right up the middle.

They're not trying to go after those ends too hard.

They're just trying to get a little bit of push up front.

I think they got it.

Their line has to win right now.

Got eye formation.

We've got more than a split out left.

And we have another timeout or something.

And

it's going to be a timeout for Antonagin.

We'll stick around here, though.

We got second down and six.

We're just under two to go.

What play do you run right here?

You keep going with Baboula?

I don't know.

Maybe after a timeout, maybe you come out with that little flank, boys.

Catch him off guard a little bit.

I'm going to run that bootleg and try to run the flank, which would be my thought on this play.

You know Clayton wants another crack at it.

He was open and he got to pass earlier like he he'll catch it this time coach if you give him a chance.

Just gotta give him.

I think that would be one of those play calls were like that could hit a home run right here.

Yeah, it's a little bit risky, but I think that's the play I'd go with.

Otherwise I don't mind seeing Bobula.

I'd like to see him try to get to the edge.

Now they ran up the middle a little bit.

Maybe those run or the ends crash down just that little bit.

Catch him

inside.

Got to try

to find a way to get a room though.

You know, just got to get him in space.

Just a crack even.

He doesn't need a ton of

space either.

He showed himself to be a very physical runner.

He's not a big kid, but he's low to the ground.

He's not easy to tackle.

Not easy to bring down at all.

All right, here we go.

Buzzer's in shotgun.

He's got Holmstrom to his right, but Bula's in motion on his left hand side to give us the Holmstrom up the middle.

And that's a nice run by Holmstrom, his best of the game.

Now there's a big scrum pile.

What do you know?

Near the first down stick.

And do they have a first down?

They haven't spotted the ball yet.

I think that's the first down.

There it is, first down.

Nice run by Holmstrump.

So we're just wrong on our play calling, but that works just fine.

It works just fine.

I mean, when you go five yards without contact,

keep pounding it.

Absolutely.

Nice.

Superboolie is going to get a ref.

Clock is ticking, 135.

Ball

is spotted at the 35 yard line just inside of Calumet.

Buzzles in the shotgun.

More than a wide receiver to his right.

He's got Holmstrom and now Amos in motion.

They give this to Holmstrom up to the left-hand side.

Oh, and he's stuck.

Nice tackle there by number 22.

That's Wade Koskala with a nice stick.

Wade will hold on too.

He's

got his hands on him.

Brought him down.

And Holmstrom's a tough kid.

You don't think you'd be able to take him down that easily.

It really wasn't that easy.

He just stood him up and he got some help.

A nice play.

And we have just over a minute left.

Second down 11.

They need a big crack play here.

They trail at 16 to nothing.

We have a minute left now in the first half Shotgun said buzz always got home stream to his right one and it's out wide Amos in motion.

It's a pitch to Amos right hand side Just keep going to the sideline son.

There you go, and he gets five yards.

Oh, we tackle way lady took all Pat Tucker.

My goodness Oh Pat's okay over there.

It's a gain of five or six

Everybody looks all good over there.

I think

I don't know if that tackle was later now.

We can't see it at all.

Probably didn't wasn't needed.

I would say just done into the sideline.

That was a good play though.

It's the six yards and I mean a second 11.

That's perfect.

Stops the clock and another smart play there.

The ball is spotted at the 30th third on five.

We've got 47 seconds left in the second quarter.

Buzzo's in shotgun holds him to his left.

He's got a wing back in Amos to his right.

Widerseer is more into the left-hand side.

They give us the Holmstrom gaping hole there.

And Holmstrom with another first down, tripped up just outside the 20-yard line.

Nice play.

And number 50 for Calumet gets up holding his arm.

That's Calvin Anderson.

He's played well.

That's all he made that tackle with, too.

He just got his arm out there.

I wonder

if that hurt.

And what do we got here?

Another timeout.

We're going to discuss it.

We're going to take a timeout, too.

The score is 16-0.

Gladiators on the march.

They got the ball to 30.

We'll come be back in 30 seconds.

Hello folks, welcome back.

Score is 16-nothing.

I got a note from Jerry Major and he says that Copper Island Academy, not Calumet.

I'm saying it's one and one and the same, but we can call him Copper Island.

Or we just call him Eagle.

Anyway, the Eagles playing defense, first in 10.

Glad to have the ball with the 20 yard line.

They trail at 16-nothing.

Buzzel's in the shotgun.

It's a bad snap and it's on the ground.

He's got to follow on it and that's a loss of a bunch.

Loss of 15.

And that more or less kills that drive.

That was unfortunate.

Oh, and you hate to see that.

Call a timeout and that's what the play execution was.

That just doesn't do it.

Not ideal.

Then who got the ball first?

We remember, was it?

Is it Glad's kick?

Receive.

That is correct.

So Copper Island, we'll get that right now.

They're going to receive the second half kickoff.

They're going to have the lead for sure.

It might be trimmed, but they're still going to have the lead either way.

Right now it's second down in 24.

There's 35 seconds left in the second quarter.

And I know this drive, I mean, I don't want to say it's going to stall, but that played in the hell, but they actually moved the ball a little bit at the end.

Just get it going.

There's no reason they can't move the ball in the second half of this game.

And it wasn't a very methodical way.

It was just rushes up the gut, little plates outside.

But they did a lot of it up the middle here on the blaster.

Yeah, I think Copper Island is a good job of containing.

So if they're going to give you room up the middle, then that's where you take it.

That's fine.

Here we go.

Shotgun set.

Amos in motion.

That snap is good.

Fuzzle back to pass.

He's got some time.

Deep right hand side.

Got a man.

It is as incomplete knocked away.

Is that 35 out there?

It is.

Number 35 was Cam Logie was the intended target.

Had him for a second, but knocked away.

Pretty good defense there by Copper Islay.

The score is...

Still going to be 16.

Nothing, 28.2 left.

It's 3rd and 24.

That was a decent play.

And Bubbles got a decent arm.

He just got to give it some time.

Yeah, I mean, he was just getting hit as he was getting rid of it.

Just kind of had to heave it.

No, correct me if I'm wrong, but Cam's a pretty big kid as far as tall, right?

Is he 6' something?

He's up there.

Yeah, so he needs a decent sized target.

6'2", 6'3", I'd do.

I'm

thinking they don't have a ton of large targets.

It's not like that kid laughs like we saw from a crystal ball.

That kid is a monster, a freshman too.

28.2 left, Buzzo's in Shaka.

He's got a homestorm to his right, Amos in motion, he's back to pass, he's got a lot of time.

Now he's run out of time, throws it left, it's over everybody.

He

was trying to bind Moin in over there.

It's

going to be fourth down and forever.

I don't mind going for the deep passes, but I kind of wonder if you run like a 15 yard out and just try to get a big chunk there rather than go for the home run.

But hindsight's 20-20, you can run whatever you want on that situation.

Especially since you do have 10 yards to get a first down, you don't have to score after picking up the stakes.

No, well, too, they're going to do.

They got to go for it, I'm assuming.

They need 24 yards here, some way, somehow.

Why not?

See your brother on the sideline.

Evie, one of those target cells, he's looking for, but he's not going to be out there for this play.

Here we go.

Fourth in, 24.

Got more than as wide out to the left.

Little confusion here.

Amos is the wing back on the right-hand side.

Buzzo will be in shotgun with Holmstrom.

Buzzo back to pass.

Got a little bit of time.

Now he's running left.

He's got some room.

He's going to take off.

He's got to get a lot though.

And he breaks one tackle and fights his way, not even close to a first down, but pretty nice run there.

It's

going to be a turnover on down.

Copper Island will take over.

Yeah,

I get it.

Buzz was just trying to make something happen there.

I don't have a problem with that play.

Took a bunch of time off the clock and he gained, I mean, you gained probably 10, 15 yards there.

Yeah, it was a good

play.

I mean, there's just not a lot you can do on 4th and 24.

Yeah, I don't think a lot

of coaches drop the 4th and 24 play.

He's just kind of hoping something works out.

Nonetheless, Copper Island takes over.

16-0, they lead.

Quarterback under center.

He's just going to kneel and that's going to get us to halftime.

And we'll do a halftime show for you momentarily that's presented by Wyzen Pitstop Bar and Grill.

The halftime score is 16 for the Copper Island Academy Eagles and 0 for the Hanson-Hagen-Uentral Creek Waters Mead Gladiators.

We're gonna take a good healthy time out here though.

We'll be back for the halftime show in eight minutes.

Grand Rapids was the officiating capital of the world for one day, and we introduce a new series on why officials officiate.

I'm John Ross, and this is This Week in High School Sports, powered by the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, and coming to you from the 1-800-CALL-SAM studio.

In late July, about 1,000 MHSAA registered officials attended Officiate Michigan Day at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids.

Some of the biggest names and officiating from across the country were on hand to lead discussions, workshops, and training sessions.

The two keynote speakers were Mike Pereira, a former college and NFL official who is now the TV Rules Analyst for Spock Sports, and Kerry Seitz, the current Vice President of Ruffering for U.S.

Soccer, and the former FIFA Head of Ruffering.

Seitz is also a graduate of Brighton High School in Michigan State University.

Officiate Michigan Day was designed to benefit officials with any level of experience, veteran to beginner, high profile clinicians representing several sports in all levels including the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA, FIFA and the National Women's Soccer League provided face-to-face training during four sport specific breakout sessions throughout the conference.

This was the third Officiate Michigan Day joining events in 2013 and 2018 and for more

It's time for game balls when we highlight a trio of standout performances from the past week.

We lead things off with the volley turf takeover at Lansing Catholic where Williamson and Lansing Catholic both won volleyball matches played outside on the Cougars football field.

Previously, they had been in a co-op with T.C.

St.

And to Hart Jr.

Silas Ackley, he led a trio of pirates in the top 10 as Hart came in first at the Pete Moss Cross Country Invite.

Our weekly Be the Referee feature takes a look at the fine art of officiating with MHSAA registered official Paige Winnie.

We're on the football field today where the offense has the ball on their own 20 yard line.

It's third and 10.

They run a draw play with the running back getting nine yards before fumbling at the 29 yard line.

The fumbled ball goes forward to the 35 yard line before another offensive player recovers.

Where should the ball be marked?

Because the ballers were covered in bounds, it's first down for the offense at the point of recovery, the 35-yard line.

If the ball had rolled out of bounds at the 35-yard line before anyone could recover it, it would have been brought back to the spot of the fumble, the 29-yard line, making it fourth and one for the offense.

Thanks, Paige.

There are lots of reasons to get in and stay in officiating.

Each week, we hear from a current or former official in a segment called What's My Why.

This week, we hear from Mike Pereira, who is currently the Football Rules Analyst for Fox Sports.

I didn't want to officiate when they first came to me.

I said, no.

I said, no.

My dad would officiate.

That's a why.

I said, I don't have any desire to.

And they said, well, why?

I said, because I don't.

Well, your dad officiated.

Well, maybe that's it.

I used to go to games and watch him get yelled at.

But it's $10 a game.

It's $10 a game on Sunday, three games, $30 cash.

I was a college student with no money.

I said, I always thought I wanted to officiate.

And out I went, and it was kind of interesting that that first quarter of the first game, the first Pop Warner game, first quarter, parents are yelling at me.

I didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Kids, little kids running around.

And it was like somebody injected me with adrenaline.

I found my passion in life.

As stupid as that may be sound, I found my passion in life.

Now more than ever, we need officials.

I'm John Ross, and we'll be back next week.

Welcome back to WKY101 coverage of high school football.

We're up to the Weizmann pit stop bar and grill halftime show.

We've got about 10 minutes before they kick off, the second half.

So far, it is all Copper Island Academy Eagles.

They started the scoring early.

They had a 28-yard pass from Vince Hainanen to Wade Costco to make it 6-0.

And then Vince hit Nolan Kilpelaw in the 2-point conversion to make it 8-0.

Short time later, Vince's brother Victor had a 6-yard TD run to make it 14-0.

And then Vince added a 2-point conversion to make it 16-0.

That's all the scoring.

That's all the scoring.

So it's been all Copper Island Academy.

Now the gladiators that last drive we saw him get it going just a little bit mostly with the Bula and Holmstrom.

What do we got to see in the second half for them to get back in this game?

Having the football possession of the ball is way bigger, especially in a game like this than it seems maybe.

Not a ton of scoring, but if you have the ball, they can score.

I agree with you, I think.

It's the first possession for both sides in this half I think they have to get a stop and they have to move the ball if they allow the Eagles to march down and score and get up three scores I think we're in big trouble.

Yeah, but

if you come out and knock the ball out of their running backs hands on the first carry It makes a way different course for the rest

of

all

I've had the Eagles turn the ball over in this game.

They have not I think what on Sagan's got one they had to fumble early both teams I think lost one on fourth down a pretty clean game so far

The other thing too is I think they've had some opportunities in the passing game if they can give Buzzel some time and Bill, if you're listening, he's a sophomore, we got it.

Ray and Buzzel is a sophomore quarterback.

He's got an arm and he's mobile.

I'd like to see him roll out.

They give you that bootleg action, you know, do a play action and get him out of the pocket a little bit would be a good play, something along those lines.

To just have him throw flat-footed kind of in the back of the pocket, hasn't been working the best.

I think their coach said it well as early in the game or in the pregame He told us this team has to be fundamental because they're just really not big enough.

They have no size And if you don't have fundamentals, it's tough to accomplish anything when you just said dropping back a puzzle and trying to throw I think it'd be very difficult We don't have the line to block either.

No, they have to make him mobile

And both lines kind of have to play with that game of speed and in a lot of net because they're not the biggest on both sides

I

was a little guy playing line.

One of the first things is getting the guys away.

If you make a defender run through, you're going to play going away.

That's enough.

That'll work.

Sometimes it's just position matters more than you don't have to necessarily knock your guy 30 yards off the ball.

Just be in and away the whole time to be attached to him is what matters.

Alright folks, I'm going to go through the scores one more time and then we're going to take another little break.

We got about seven minutes before the second half start.

Scoring was let off on a 28-yard touchdown pass from Vince Hainan to Wade Koskola.

That was the first touchdown ever.

in Copper Island Academy history, then Vince Hayden and then hit Nolan Kilpel in a 2-point conversion, make it 8-0.

Vince Hayden then scored a 60-R and TD run momentarily later, make it 14-0, and then Vince scored a 2-point conversion, make it 16-0.

Now it's Victor that had that run, not Vince.

And your score is 16-0.

We've got about six and a half minutes before the second half starts.

We'll take a five-minute break.

We'll be back in five.

Thanks for that one, Robbie.

Got in just in time.

Here's the second half kick to the Eagles.

It's feeling at the 20 yard line.

That's one of the Haynes ends.

He's up to the 35, up to the 40.

Breaks free a little bit up to the 43 yard line.

Taken down by Majuren.

Is that in

Moilen

and you got it.

Nice return.

No, that's not quite.

Thought we wanted the second half to start.

Twice dangerous

taking to that deep dive.

It is.

Yeah, most of the success we saw, I thought Crystal had a pretty good plan, just kick to the edges.

You try to kick it like kind of towards the 20 yard line, sort

of

towards the out-of-bond marker is kind of the way to go and I've seen so far.

And the score is 16-0.

Copper Island with the ball.

They're going to go eye formation, hanging under center.

He's got a tail back and full back behind him.

Give to his brother a tail back and he goes nowhere at 35 on a stick there.

And his logi, nice play.

Can't play good in this

game.

Set us all at edge.

He's kind of playing on that tight end and defensive end, you know, both sides of the ball.

He's on the technically the weak side, if you will.

He's on the left side of the offense, near side to us.

The gladiator is going left to right this half.

I see Cooper Morelin.

It was shaken up in the first play.

He's at the bench.

Hopefully he's OK.

There's a ton of players.

All right, here we go.

Second down and nine.

Shotgun set.

Wing back right.

Tail back to the left of the quarterback.

Hane in it.

This is that snap into either guy.

They snap it to Hainan and he fakes it to Kangus and keeps it right hand side with a blast up the middle.

Nice run and he's stuck, but way downfield.

He got tackled at the 45 yard line.

He's up a Bulu that hit him.

There it is.

Brody Bulu with a nice stick, but that's a 10 yard game.

That's a tough ball.

That's a solid run though and it kind of went the same way as the motion.

Yeah, they're doing kind of a weird formation where they put really two quarterbacks standing next to each other and they snap it either and that one was a fake to Kangus and a keeper by Hainan, but they've snapped it to Kangus out of that same formation for a run.

Yeah, just kind of that fake handoff and it wound up going to the same side.

It's odd how that was done.

All right, we got double wide receivers left hand side.

Hainan is in the shotgun set.

He's about about the 50 yard line, first and 10.

Snap is in.

Blitz by the Gladiators.

He's got a little bit of time.

They're going to call holding on this play, and he's tackled for a loss of one.

I was wondering if they'd throw it on that.

Give me a holding call on that.

It's got to be what that is, right?

It has to be.

It's got to

be.

What am I seeing?

Everybody's walking around with a cup of a pickle in it.

What is that?

I

don't know.

If we're going to check out the booth at the end of the game here, see if they've got some leftovers for us.

That is indeed a holding call.

It's going to be first down along.

That helps the cause for the Gladiators.

Now I was getting that mentality.

You've got a first down in 20.

You just need positive plays.

You want to get five to seven yards on first down.

Give yourself a chance here if I'm Copper Island.

They're going to spot the ball at the 44 yard line back in the Eagles' own territory.

It's a good spot.

That's a defensive to start rallying off of something.

You get a big holding call.

10 yards is a whole series.

That's

huge.

Especially high school ball where these these teams really aren't getting me chunk plays with ten yards.

It's a big deal

Yeah,

you've got a stack wide receiver set towards us one guy motion is Kangus And it's gonna be a fake to Kangus ain't in the back to pass those left-hand side find skillful I believe

is it is number

22

with a nice

play up to the 35 yard line.

It was number 22.

All right, Kalskala It's who that was he caught the first touchdown and copper Island Academy history

Just off to the tight end is all that was

Yeah, I don't know if they've even tried to hit a wide receiver yet.

It's always been I think either a full back or the tight end on that kind of play It's been effective for them.

They've completed that same sort of play several times now

bringing the change.

That's a gain of 20 on first and 20 and they're right at the stick No, no, he goes there forget it.

We'll run that second down to one play but no we're gonna we're gonna check the Chains instead kind of a gray

They were ready to go.

Yeah.

Thought they'll be held up for just a second.

We'll see if that's the first down.

That's really close to us.

As close as it gets.

And that's the first down.

Another first down by the Eagles on a first and 20.

That's the backbreaker for the defense.

They've got to step up here.

Gotta make some kind of play.

Somebody on the defense side.

Can we get a fumble?

Yeah, Holmes from tackle and a fumble here.

Even on the field that's gonna be hard if he's not out there.

He's not on the field right now scratch that you have to be somebody else And we've got what here looks like Got a tight end left shotgun snap to Hainan and then he's got two y's out to his right hand side Man in motion is his brother.

It's a fake to his brother keeper by hanging on right hand side Oh a nice tackle there out in base because Clayton can great play Gain him just a couple

That was number 10 Vince Hayden in the quarterback on the keeper 920 to go here third quarter your third quarter response sir is on Sonoghan County Telephone company midway telephone company and jam it off.

Thank you for your third quarter sponsorship Get him

to I like to have a stick up and tackle and we've seen it early in the game But as it's gone on seen it less

less and less I formation can get some motion left-hand side the pitches to Hayden in he cuts it up field That's not a number 24 is a short game

That's the white consula.

Anderson on the tackle.

You giving BJ the credit for that one?

He came around mate.

There's a gain, I'm going to call that one a four yard gain.

Should set up about a third down and five.

We've got a big play coming up here, 840 to go here, third quarter.

It is at these third down and five.

The ball is spotted right now.

I believe that's at the 31 yard line, give or take.

Call it

31.

Somebody's

got to be clutch here.

Give me a stop.

Give me a loss of one or two here

would be huge

They're gonna go I formation the pullback is 24.

That's Costco tail back.

I believe is hanging

it Now goes

to the quarterback.

He hands those brother right hands on the short game.

Nice tackle there Number 30 is that 32 30 even Is Romeo polar the water speed player the junior nice play good tackle on the outside

Oh, and they pull him after a nice tackle.

Connor Guzik's gonna head back out there after a race.

Nice play there by Romeo Pollock.

750

to go, it's 4th down and 3th.

This is a huge play in this ballgame.

Get a stop here, Gladz.

He's being pretty hard on it.

Yeah, it looks like 4th in the yard to half.

Looks like about 2.

I formation.

Hanging it under center.

Deep tail back, I believe it's Kangus.

They give us the Kangus right hand side and he's close.

I don't think he got it though.

That's gonna be real close.

This is a big play here.

Have we seen a signal yet?

I

think he just gave it to him.

He's got it first down.

Oh, that was clutch.

Nice run there.

And yet another Copper Island Academy first down.

He's had the ball for over four minutes, so the third quarter started off.

It's 7-20 and counting.

The ball is spotted at the 25-yard line, first down at 10, for the Eagles.

Credit to them.

They came right out in the second half and

just placed their way, yeah.

I formation.

Haining it under center.

Give it to the tail back, left-hand side.

That's Kangus.

He's got himself a couple.

Pretty good defense there, though.

Not much.

It's always hard to tell by this angle, isn't it?

It looks like three.

Oh, you get four on the board.

No way.

That's three.

Clear as

day.

It's under seven to go.

They're going to call it second down and six on the big board.

The ball is spotted at the 22 yard line.

That clock keeps on ticking away.

I don't find a way to get a stop

here on this drive.

They do.

You got Kengis have full back, Hayden ends that tail.

They're under eye again, shockingly.

Kengis in motion, left hand side.

Give is to Kengis on a trap plate to the right.

Nice play.

He's got himself a handful, near the first down marker again.

I think he's going to be short, but it's going to be third and short, maybe third and one.

And this clock is going to get two, six minutes.

That's half of the third quarter gone already.

One drive.

And Copper Academy just doesn't want to give the Glads a chance wisely.

They just had the ball.

Good drive by them.

I'd

say

they did a great job overcoming a first and 20.

That was big.

One play.

Eye formation, Kangus in motion, left-hand side.

And it's going to be a keeper to Hayden, and oh,

he's blasted

right at the stick.

I don't think he got a whole lot there.

Like that's Brian.

Kind

of.

Oh.

It

didn't get the first down.

It was a home strumming given credit to it.

That was a nice hit, however it was.

We're going to give credit to Holmstrom.

He's the

one that was surprised at the first

down.

Yes, he had another first down.

I think that's their third, at least, on this possession.

That clock will start ticking away again.

We're at 545 and counting.

That's if they can get the scoreboard's attention.

So far, no good.

Two referees waving their arms.

Now a whistle will get their attention.

There we go.

Now the clock's running.

Now it stops.

What do we got going on here now?

Come on.

Now I don't know what they're doing.

That clock should be running.

Now it is.

They're

going to make it trip down to probably 540 and then let them run a play here.

All right, there we go.

Five and a half to go.

Score is 16-nothing.

Copper Island.

Eye formation.

Kangus at full.

Hayden in that tail back.

Brother Vince under center.

Give us Hayden.

Oh, it's not a keeper.

He's going to try to throw.

He's got a man wide open in the end zone for a touchdown.

And it's a 15 yard strike.

Who caught that ball?

How do you catch it?

You give us 22?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's

going to go Wade Koskala from 15 yards.

And Hainan and with his second touchdown pass of the game, the score is 22-0.

And they took almost seven minutes out the clock.

That was a great possession by Copper Island, unfortunate for the Gladge there.

They just haven't been able to get momentum in there

way

much at

all

tonight.

And I give credit.

Copper Island, they've methodically moved the ball.

The majority of the game, they have moved the ball.

They haven't made huge splash plays necessarily.

It's

grinding.

It gives to Kangus.

No, it's not.

It's a keeper by Hayden and he finds a wide open receiver.

I

think

that's his brother.

It is.

So that's Hayden into Hayden and on the two point conversion the score is 24 to nothing.

Copper Island Academy.

And they scored again.

It starts the third quarter.

The gladiator's after it.

They got to move the ball, but this is it.

And I feel like if they get the ball back to Calumet, they might not see the ball again the rest of the game.

Maybe not.

I'm probably exaggerating a little bit there, but...

Got to get it back.

You do get it.

That goes without saying at halftime, like, really the first two possessions in so far.

It's only she's won.

Copper Island, they dominated their possession.

Yeah.

And so the Gladys have to answer here.

And with all three being two-point conversions on top of that...

They've

executed very well inside the five, no doubt.

They gotta get a spark here, like give me a big play.

Could it be right here, but who is the deep returner?

I'd be shocked if Dwight Costco kicks anywhere near him.

If he did, I betcha Coach would get mad at him.

Here we go.

Kicks it right down Broadway.

It's into the hands of that skin right hand side.

He's up to midfield.

He's to the 40 and he's going to score.

Clayton Kinn with a huge play on special teams and the gladiators are on the board.

24 to 6.

Hard to see how far.

I'm going to give him a 70R return there.

Why don't we just call it 70?

It's going to be something like that.

That's fair play, yeah.

65, 70, so.

Huge play.

That was,

yeah.

That was a huge play.

Don't even make your offense, see

the ball.

Clayton limps off the field, but he's just made a huge play.

Does it turn this game around kind of play?

We'll see.

On the two-point conversions, they're all going to be big here though because you need all of them.

Copper Island is three for three.

Clayton limps off the field, but he's made a huge play for his team.

He's had some bother earlier too.

Same thing.

Kind of hobbling around.

All right, shotgun set here.

Buzzo, the sophomore.

Got two running backs in front of him, running left-hand side.

He's going to be short, good defense by Copper Island.

But the score is 24-6 for a 508 to go here third quarter.

Gladiers are crawling back in the game just a little bit, but now they have to get a

stop.

Yeah, and

another one.

They're going to need... Yeah, I mean, they're still down three scores.

So they're going to need numerous stops, but a little turnover would help the cost here.

Sometimes you try to announce yourself into a turnover, right?

Maybe.

A little announcer's curse.

It works in basketball sometimes.

I swear I've missed free throws before.

He's made every free throw this season.

That'll get him.

So the copper island hasn't turned

a ball over all game.

And that's really where they've been to better teams.

They

have been.

They've just been fundamentally sound

all night.

You echo what their coach said.

We have to be fundamentals.

We're not big enough to not be fundamental and they have won that

battle.

Except for that one play on the kickoff that was,

you

know, they have containment, which they lost.

All right, Amos is going to kick 5-0-8 here to go.

24-6 is the score.

Glad down by 18.

Not over yet.

That kick is deep.

He's

going to go to Hayden and he's not going to field it cleanly though.

He's going to pick it up at about the 10 yard line.

Oh, nice block there.

We've got a glad down out of bounds.

And instead of working his way to the 25-yard line, he's pushed out of bounds, and the 29 has Cooper more than a neck out.

I'd like to see some

laundry for that.

They are going to call an illegal block there.

He

should.

That was dirty.

And Coop is, he's shaking up.

Yeah.

And they are going to call, it's going to be some kind of illegal block, I'm sure of it.

Legal block in the back.

Should be personal.

That's.

possibly a half to distance to the goal line kind of play there.

Matter of fact, I think that's what the call is.

We'll see.

The flag is at about the 19 yard line.

Copper Island is going to be backed up way in their own territory.

Just win first down here.

And create an opportunity for your offense to get back on the field in good field position.

He's actually going to count off steps.

Is that a 10 yard penalty maybe?

Going

across the field, that's a little weird.

I don't

know if we should count them off.

No, that's a half the difference penalty.

They're going to spot it just inside the ten yard line.

It'll be first down at ten.

We have four fifty-eight left, third quarter.

Third quarter sponsors, Yonsei County Telephone Company, Midway Telephone Company, and Jamadot.

All right, here we go, 24-sixth Copper Island with the lead.

Long field ahead of them now.

Guys, they do.

This is a big play here.

Hanging in shotgun, running back to his left.

That's hanging.

Play action pass, rolling right.

Throwing right.

Got him, man.

It's

his

brother, but it's over his head.

And it's Pabula on the coverage.

He was there.

I don't know if he was right there, though, but the pass is overthrown.

Doesn't matter.

Second down and 10.

Kind of ran out of time just had to wing it.

I like what they're doing, though, so they have two receivers out right.

Their quarterback rolls right.

Yeah, goes the way it would.

Yes, do that.

Because they don't have a team that can block for four seconds out past either.

No,

you

gotta find ways to get the ball out quick.

You do.

I don't know if I would have ran there though, or thrown.

They ran them all so well last drive.

Come on and try to throw it.

All

right guys, tail back is Koskala.

Hanging under center.

The pitch is to Koskala right hand side.

Oh, he's stocked.

Nice tackle there.

Gained a very little.

Is that going to be homestorming up?

Yes it is.

Dropped him in his track.

No gain.

It's third down and ten.

This is a big play here.

He's 62 heading out there, Logan

Beck.

Conor Guza came limping off a little bit gingerly.

Cramped in there.

That looks like cramped.

Oh my goodness, he's going to throw up.

Hopefully he's

okay.

All right, 4.19 to go.

Third down and ten.

Come on, Glad's going to stop here.

It looks like it's going to be eye formation.

Tail back is Koskala.

Hated it under center and it's a play-action pass looking right-hand side throwing to the deep guy and it is incomplete I believe call it a bound They call it a catch.

It's a great catch by Stanley.

No, it's not that's Wade Costco at number 22 on the grab.

Oh My that was pretty good defense.

He's

there.

He still made the play first down They pick it up on a third and ten.

Oh

I wish

we could have a view of

that.

Yeah, it was hard for us to make the call obviously, because my point of view is way out of bounds, but of course I can't see that sideline at all.

All

right, eye formation.

Hanging in under center.

First and 10.

Top round.

Oh, it's a football!

And it goes nowhere.

He picks it back up, and it's going to be a loss of one.

We'll see where they spot this one would be second down in something or other 345 clock ticking 24 to 6 is the score.

Copper Island lead.

You gotta get it back soon though I think.

Say it again?

You gotta get the ball back soon though I think.

If they march the ball down and score here, I mean we're gonna be deep in the fourth quarter I imagine.

I formation hanging on another center.

Second down 11.

I think that's Kangus in motion towards us.

Pitch is towards us.

Never mind, that's the case, and a nice tackle there.

Number 35 is Cam Logie.

He's played well tonight.

Oh, Ryan was on a mission to

get

there,

too.

He's a good middle linebacker.

I think he's a good player.

We got a third down and nine upcoming.

They just converted a third down and 10 on the last set.

We have three minutes left in the third quarter.

It just feels like Copper Island has just had the ball, which they have for this entire quarter, with the exception of a kick return.

One two-point try.

One two-point try.

All right, they've got double wide receivers.

One of them being Kangus and the other one's being Hananin.

Vince Hananin's in the shotgun.

Wide receivers are towards us on his left.

He's looking left all the way.

He's got time.

Now he throws left to the underneath man.

That's Kangus.

There's a flag in the play.

Oh, Kangus makes a couple guys miss and stumbles up near the first down.

Be a holding call for me there, please, sir.

It's got to be, doesn't it?

Then the back view.

He's a shifty player there.

He probably only had five or six yards.

He turned it into ten.

It's all gonna be academic though, I hope.

And the call is holding offense.

Bring it back.

That probably would have been another first down.

He was right off the stick again.

Nonetheless, they will con out ten yards here.

It's gonna be third down and twenty.

They've got themselves in a couple really good situations now.

There's a first in 20, a third in 10, and now a third in 20.

They have to win this battle right here.

You've got to kind of have an idea at this point in the game what they want to do.

And they've been hitting those dump routes in space.

I was thinking they were going to run that double crossing and throw it underneath, but they're not.

It's a tight formation.

Quarterback is in a shotgun set.

I believe he's got Kangus next to him.

The fake to Kangus are looking to pass.

He's looking right hand

side.

Now he

goes left.

Man, wide open is his brother.

Oh, it's

over his head.

My goodness, that was open.

And that would have been enough for first down, but they can't connect.

And they're going to have to punt on fourth.

And the scoreboard says 18.

I'm not buying that.

My math isn't the best, but there's no way.

A little more.

At least fourth and 19.

We're like fourth and 20.

50.

You just punted right to Brody.

Oh, yep, Brody back there.

See the momentum swung just a little bit.

Yeah.

If the

Gladiators can do something here, this is a dangerous play for Copper Island.

The dangerous guy to kick it to.

If the Glads can kick it to, there's just not much of a rush.

And Babouli is going to feel that.

He's going to catch it at the 49 yard line, goes to his left.

He's at the 40, to the 35.

A little bit of room, breaks the inside.

No, he doesn't.

He's dumped.

Nice tackle.

I got to give credit to somebody if I can team it.

Number 10, that's Vince Haydenin with a great tackle out there.

Nice when

your quarterback can make plays like

that, eh?

Yeah, it's a good

play.

Nice

return by Bamboula though, so he still, it was from the 49 yard line of the gladiator team and he gets all the way up to, you know, with a 33 yard line, they're going to spot that.

About a 15 yard

return, anyway.

Yeah, I thought he was going to have a whole bunch more, but Vince Haydenin made a nice play.

2-0-3 to go third quarter, glad to take over.

We have one wide receiver to the right-hand side that's moiling in.

Holmstrom is at full back.

We've got Wabula at tail.

It's going to be a pitch to Wabula right-hand side.

He's got the edge.

And he's tackled by Hayden in the game, but not after picking up about 14 yards.

It's the first down in a year.

We need more

of that outside pitch.

Just let Ryan find a lane for

him.

Yeah, I saw Ryan actually block the guy in the backfield, but he didn't wipe a guy out, clearing the way for Wabula.

And they managed to turn the corner.

On number 50, that was Calvin Anderson, who was not there that time.

They finally were able to hook him.

And that's what it takes, just a guy to get out there and disrupt.

And when you have a fullback like Ryan, he's going to do that at some point.

Yeah, Mabula's fast.

If you get hit in the edge, he's going to get 10 yards of pop pretty easy.

Eye formation again.

To give it to Holmstrom, he's right at the middle.

Give him a few.

Probably a gain of four, at least three.

He's up to the 15-yard line.

But that's forward, right?

All right, fine.

That's a fine play on first down.

They're going to give him four yards, give or take.

We're at a buck 15 left clock ticking.

It'll be second down and sixth.

They've got it spotted at the 15 yard line.

High formation again.

Holmstrom in the full back.

The blue lead tail.

Fuzzle under center.

Morelin' in white out right.

Nap is good.

Oh, it's give to Holmstrom left hand side.

He's wrestled down.

I think that was my hate in it, but not after he comes really close to another first

round.

I mean, right off the guard, he wasn't even touched.

I don't know if the backers hit each other or what really happened.

Nice play, you're right.

They've had good success with whatever play that is they're running.

And that was Victor Haney in it on the tackle.

Kind of like a trap, but...

I was thinking that might have been a trap.

It's a similar play, but it's off the center.

Yeah.

Alright, first and goal from the 7.

They give it to Holmstrom right hand side.

He's got a long room this time and he's going to stumble almost a touchdown, but not quite.

He's going to be within the one yard line now.

It'll be first and goal from the one.

There's 35 seconds and counting here.

Gladiators knocking on the door.

Got to try to get it in now.

They absolutely have to score.

I mean, they're from the inch line.

They don't score here.

Forget it.

It's 24 to 6, 24 seconds, clock ticking.

This is third quarter still, folks.

We got a lot of time left.

Give us the Holmstrom.

You got to give it to him.

He played really well on this drive.

He scores.

The Holmstrom with a 1 yard TD run.

The Holmstrom, that makes the score 24 to 12.

Just pound your way down in there.

The last 25 yards of the drive, the whole drive was on the ground.

A

lot of Holmstrom on that drive.

I think they found a little something up the middle.

I like that so you go home from up the middle a few times and then Mabula finds the room at the edge and he made a homer.

Yeah, that's exactly how the drag started too and

then... Here we go, Buzzo back to pass right hand side.

Got a man, it's Logie.

What a nice play that was.

For Cam, Logie.

And that makes the score 24-14 right back in it.

That

was a nice throw by Buzzo.

Youngster, sophomore quarterback.

He's pumped up.

And the Glads are pumped up 24-14.

We got a game, folks.

16.3 left, third quarter.

Just like that.

And now a lot of pressure falls right back onto Copper Island Academy.

They're going to need to move the ball.

This game is far from over.

So a lot of time.

See if we can jinx them into a turnover.

They haven't turned a ball over on a kickoff yet today.

Haven't turned it over at all.

You know this is going to be a swimmer of some kind.

I would not kick it cleanly to Victor Hayden.

Imagine his brother's out there somewhere, but I don't know where he is.

Maybe he's not out there.

I wouldn't kick it either of those guys, though, if you can

avoid it.

I'm

thinking you're right.

I don't see him out there.

I do see Kangus out there, though.

I think he's near us at the 40.

Amos,

they're going to kick, and it's going to be a swimmer.

That's going to hit inside the 20, and it rolls out of bounds.

We'll see if I'm right here.

I think you can take it where it goes out of bounds or at the 40.

Or you can make them kick it again.

You can do that, yeah.

Let's see what they've decided.

I'm

going

to more or less guarantee they're not going to take it where it went out of bounds.

Let's see what the referees are going to do.

I think they're just going to take it.

I didn't see them talk to their coach at all.

Or is it the 35 yard line they're going to set it?

It's a legal procedure.

That we agree

on.

I'm wrong on my rules.

They're going to spot the ball at the 35 yard line.

And Copper Island will take over.

First down and 10.

They lead up by 10.

Game is tight enough a lot in the last couple of minutes.

Shock on formation.

Hayden in has got a running back to his left.

I assume that's his brother.

It is.

Give to his brother.

That's Hayden in right.

Oh, he's

jumping the

backfield.

52.

Yep, 52.

Connor Duzik.

Nice tackle there.

Second down and 10.

The defense a little bit fired up all of a sudden.

And that will end the third quarter.

The score is 24-14.

Copper Island lead is Jan Sonaga and Ewan Charles Creek waters meet club.

We'll be back for the fourth quarter in 30

seconds.

We're about to enter the fourth quarter.

Your fourth core sponsor is the minor state bank of Hansen-Ogen score is 24-14.

Copper Island Academy Eagles are leading the hometown gladiator.

It was 16-0 at the half.

The game is tightened up quite a bit

though.

The

gladiator scored twice late in the third quarter.

Yeah, they're a really good drive from Copper Island.

Great drive to start the third second half.

Hanan is in shock.

That's Kangus in motion.

Fake to Kangus.

They're looking to pass.

Left-hand side with Don.

And he short-arms it as incomplete.

They're attempting to find Wade Kapskala.

And the beauty of that is five seconds comes off the clock.

I don't know why they're not trying to run the ball like they did on that first possession.

And

they've had a lot more success with it throughout the whole game.

I mean, at times they've been able to hit through the air, but why now?

I'm not sure.

Yeah, it's me.

We're going to run the ball like that for a possession.

What do I know?

Shotgun formation, two-wides to the right-hand side.

Hanging in motion.

Bakes a pass to his brother, then he takes off left-hand side with some room.

Nice tackle there, but he got about five or six.

Is that Brody on the tackle, maybe?

I do see Pobolo over there.

Ryan is in on it.

Yeah, Holmstrom just getting up.

Nice Gainer though.

It's gonna bring up a huge play.

We've got a fourth down and probably two.

That's a

Janer.

Maybe a little past the 40, but...

Cole doesn't like this spot.

He's got a moment at the 45.

Once again, that's the first rule of radio.

Nobody cares about you.

Alright, fourth down and two.

11-15 here to go.

This is a huge play, folks.

Gonna be a shotgun.

Wide receivers on each side.

Hayden is going to run with this ball I'm thinking that wide receiver towards us went early Hayden and keeps it left hand side and stumbles past the 45.

I think he's going to have a first down I Thought the wide receiver towards us jumped the gun, but when it jumps again, it doesn't matter what I think 11 minutes left in this game Glad trail by 10 first down and 10 Copper Island.

I'd be shocked.

They don't run the ball here, right?

You got to keep it on the

ground But this is where the defense you

You got to stop that right now, right?

That's

the

last one you're giving up.

You got to come up with a stop now.

He'll be running right hand side.

It's, oh, hey, no, he's drilled by number 12.

Jacob Hurst.

Nice play, the senior.

Just drilled him.

He's shaken up as well, though I think that's down.

No.

No, it's not.

Who is that?

Oh, we got an ankle that's majoring.

He's going to walk off in his own power, but he's favoring his right ankle.

And they gave him the time

now.

We're going to have 10-32 here to go.

Coach Preston Manos helps him over to the sideline.

It's going to be second down in seven when play resumes.

10-32 here left in this game.

All right, here we go.

Copper Island's back in their huddle.

Clock running, 10 and a half.

Got to get this ball back, though.

Deepa answers with God to find a way to get them all back.

They do.

I mean, at this point in the game, you can't give up another score.

Time's starting to matter, too.

Wide receiver is split out on each side.

Hanging in his motion.

He's going to have a give up.

A sweeper to the right-hand side.

He's got the edge.

Oh, and he's stuck, says Mabula.

Nice tackle there.

Gained up a few, but it's going to be third down.

I'd say third and four, probably something like that.

Nice tackle by Mabula.

The little guys on this team, your brother and Mabula both hit.

They have cornerbacks that come up in tackle.

Yeah, they do.

Oh, they call it face mask.

That couldn't have been on the tackle, was it?

I

thought he hit him in the way.

I don't

see how it would have been.

He hit him right at the

hip.

That's got to be a face mask away from that play.

It has to be.

Oh, and that's going to nullify a third down and five.

It'll be first down and 10 instead.

And it turns into a pretty big gain.

The ball is spotted at the 34 yard line of the gladiators.

There's ten minutes and six seconds left and we've got another guy coming up the field gingerly is that number 12 it looks like that first The germ sitting on the bench to he's being looked over by Josh Drew The AD slash physical trainer two wides one of these side kangits in motion Snap is low.

They tried to fake hand off the case.

Oh, he's smashed again.

Nice hit.

No face mask there either.

That was the bullet again

They're picking in and off the ground.

He got there.

Nice hit.

I love it.

Clean head up.

Just go right through.

Brody's getting sick of seeing that play.

He's had enough of it.

Couple nice hits on this drive.

It's going to be second down and nine.

We have nine and a half minutes left in this game.

The ball is at the 33 yard line of the Gladiator.

Got to get a stop.

I'd like to see somebody get in the backfield

here.

That's the biggest issue they've had, stopping to run so far.

They haven't had a whole lot of guys in the backfield.

You know, at times, the edge rushers have made plays, but...

There we go, I formation.

It's gonna be a fake pitch to the left.

Oh, it's that trap.

It didn't work this time.

Kegas is stuffed in the backfield.

Believe that's Holmstrom.

I'd like to guess.

No, it's not.

That's 62.

That's Logan's back.

That met him in the backfield.

Okay.

Hey, we were just talking.

You mentioned that you thought Logan might have that tackle he gave credit to music.

We'll call his name anyway, even a nice play there.

It's 3rd down to 11, 845 to go.

But we just set it into existence.

It's a big

defensive line play.

I want to say that's that trap play, but he beat it that time.

Yeah, and they just kind of bobbled the exchange.

That's all it takes.

3rd and 11, 8.5 to go.

Shotgun set, wide receivers split out on each side.

Kengis in motion to the left.

They're gonna fake to Kengis back to pass.

He's got a slant.

It is covered very well.

He's gonna throw it there anyway.

Nice play, good defensive stand by the gladiators.

And I get it.

The kid's gonna throw the ball, but that was very well covered.

That was double teamed over there.

He

was all over it.

I mean, he had it at the middle of the field when he looked for it.

He had it all the way on this side when he was just throwing up for Hale.

So that's good.

Good coverage.

Great coverage.

And Hanan then makes some of a mistake there.

I mean, it was third down.

He just kind of think, oh, I'm just going to throw it in there and give him the long kill.

Anyway, I did

try to make a play there.

But then again, it's only a third down.

He would have had one more track if he just threw it into the cheap seats or taken off.

And

nonetheless.

He has done that a couple of times.

All right, we've got eye formation.

Buzzo under center.

The pitch is right hand side.

It's a nice block by Holmstrom.

Knocks the guy out.

And a nice 15 yard carry by Baboula up

to the 30

yard line.

And now they're getting big chunk plays all of a sudden.

That's gonna be a first down in ten.

I like the urgency too.

It's kind of all moving.

Moving with a reason here.

They have to show some urgency.

Looks like they're gonna pull pubs off.

Oh, they're gonna pull pubs out.

You're correct on that.

Eight minutes left.

Fuzzle will be under center.

We've got Majorna's a while to the left.

I think that's home strum is at Amon's tail back, I believe.

And the snap is...

Good pitch, they aim us nothing there.

Just everybody in the backfield for Copper Island and that's going to be a loss of a couple.

Execution just not there at all on that one.

No.

They're going to call it a loss, so it's got to be at least two.

The scoreboard says three.

It'll be second down to 13, spot the ball to 27.

We've got seven and a half minutes to go in this game.

24-14, Copper Island leads the Gladiator.

The blue is still on the sideline.

Amos is going to be the tail back.

Buzzo under center, Holmstrom at full back, 720 to go.

And back to passes Buzzo and he's got no time at all.

He's going to try to throw out as he's falling down and he fumbles.

I think that's recovered by the gladiators.

Ooh, that was almost a big mistake there.

Just no time at all there for Buzzo to do anything except for get tackled.

Yeah, just unfortunate.

This drive started so promising with a big gouge play, but now they've gone backwards on back-to-back plays.

We're under seven minutes to go.

Balls at the 19-yard line.

24-14 is the score.

In about 20-21 maybe?

You gotta get 10 yards here.

I mean, they gotta go

for 4 if they think, right?

If they need these.

It's that time of game, I think, where

you go no matter what at this point.

All right, shotgun formation, buzzle back to pass.

He's got time this time.

He's going to throw left-hand side, passes up, and it is batted around.

There's five players there and knocked out of bounds.

Incomplete, Majurian, and Babula were both in the vicinity along with three Copper Island players.

It is fourth down and forever.

Unfortunately, I think they've got a kick here.

I don't think they can just bottom the ball deep in their own territory.

There's only six and a half left, and they need to score twice.

Yeah, I would have liked to see something shorter.

I think you almost

had to.

Instead of trying to get the whole 20, you know?

Well, now they're in it.

They have to get a fourth down and 20 conversion here, 629 left.

After the turnover, they had one big play, but the last several have not gone well.

Two wide receivers, right-hand side.

There's a little confusion out there.

They've got Kamlo, you can line up properly now.

It's three wide.

They're going to call it timeout, I think.

Yes, Hansen-Augen is going to call it timeout.

We'll take it with them.

24-14 is the score.

Welcome back to WKY101 coverage of high school football.

We have 629 left in this one.

The hometown team trails it 24-14.

They've got a fourth in forever, or a fourth in 21 if you will.

Others saying fourth in 20.

I still don't agree with that though.

We'll call fourth in 20 though, that's fine.

They're gonna go four wide, three to the right, one to the left.

Holmstrom is by himself on the left hand side.

He's gonna be by man to man for sure.

Fuzzle back to pass.

They don't have enough blockers for a four-man rush and they did rush four people.

Fuzzle is going to run right.

He's going to try to get the sideline.

He does.

He's to the 30.

He's to the 40.

He's got a first down up to the 45.

You're midfield.

Right at midfield.

What a great run by the youngster.

Fuzzle with a huge play there.

Much needed.

That's about a 30 yard run.

And a huge first down for the gladiators that keep the game

interesting.

Big

play.

and they do indeed spot it right at midfield first and ten gladiators 6-18 to go huge play by the young quarterback there Brayden Buzzo the first down on fourth and forever I formation homes from that full back the tail I assume is baboula back to pass this buzz oh he's got a little bit of time throws right side finds his man that's 35 is who wrote even though he

picked up a block right in the middle of that backfield that probably saved that play

you can walk

heck of a job

They're going to call it an 8 yard gain.

That was Ken Logie, number 35 on the reception.

Clock stops, 6-0-3.

That's a perfect play.

If you're a gladiator fan, they say second and one ball spotted at about the 41 yard line.

And gladiators trail by two scores, so obviously they're going to have to score here.

They're not going to get a whole lot more possessions, I wouldn't imagine.

I formation, buzzle under center.

And it's a pitch and cut back by the Bula right away.

Pretty good defense there by Copper Island.

They held containment at that time.

Had the edge.

They got the first down anyway though, I think.

Yeah, he muffled his way for a couple.

Which does stop the clock for

a second anyway.

Until they spot the ball and wind the clock, so you're right momentarily.

They really have to run play quickly here.

There isn't a ton of time left.

We're at 5.50 to go in this game.

24-14, still the score.

Gladiators marching though.

They've got a first in 10 at the Copper Island 40 yard line Got nine formation one wide split out to the right-hand side The buzzle pitches to Bamboula and the good containment there what an excellent play that was is that number 50 again?

It is that's Clay Anderson with a great tackle on Brody Bamboula He has played well for a majority of the game got beat a couple times in this half, but not on that one What are you checking there needs something to go

forward

Second down in 13.

5-15 and ticking.

One wide out right.

Eye formation.

Buzzo under center.

There's the snap.

Give it to Holmstrom.

Left hand side.

He's got some movement time.

Runs over

a man.

Spins out of a couple more.

He's got himself a nice gain there.

Give him 7.

We're more

than that.

That was second and 13.

Maybe only short by a yard or two.

Depends on where

they spotted.

They've got it spotted.

I think that's at the 42 yard line.

Oh, gain of 10.

That's a nice roll for him.

Pretty good there.

445 to go.

Third down and three.

I have formation again.

Give it to Holmstrom again here.

He only needs three.

And they fake it to him.

Pitch to Babula, but great defense again by number 50.

Oh, he's reversing field.

He's off to the left sideline.

I don't know if he got there or not.

Great defense again by Calvin Anderson.

He shut off that outside run to the right.

And he's out of bounds.

I have no idea where they're going to mark this one.

We'll find out soon.

They're

going to call that a first down.

They did.

They're going to spot that inside the 30.

It's probably 28 yard line, 29

maybe.

That looks like right in the middle.

Yeah.

Torbord says 33.

I think that is wrong.

It's going to be like the 27.

No, Torbord says 23.

I don't think that's right either.

There

they

go.

28 yard line.

I'll agree with that one.

Three wide's right at one left.

First and 10.

Four and a half to go.

Glad it's trailed by 10.

Fuzzles and shotgun.

He's trying to throw right hand side.

Throws it behind his guy.

That was a weird play.

See, Amos actually went in motion and was going to block.

Yeah, just the throw is just a bit behind him.

Couldn't quite get his hands on him.

Not the worst play either, though.

I mean, it's not a negative.

The clock stops.

There's 425 here to go.

You know they're going to skip kick it if they score.

That's a given.

And they have all three of their timeouts remaining.

That might come into play.

Second down to 10.

Three wise to the right.

And what they've been doing is motioning Amos into block here.

And they're going to do that again, I believe.

And they fake the handoff to him.

Buzzo's just going to run all the way right inside.

He's got some room.

Good block up there by Majurin.

Sets him off.

A couple tackles.

What a great run by Brayden Buzzo there.

He's tackled inside the five yard line.

That's going to gain him over 20.

That's a nice little

spin at the end.

Probably added five or six.

He's got 50 yards himself on this drive.

And he sets off the Gladiators with a first down and goal from the five yard line.

We've got 4.15 o'clock running now.

And maybe that's the third or fourth time they've called this number.

And he's made the most out of it tonight.

Give it to Holmstrom here.

And there it is.

No, it isn't.

Keep up Buzzo.

And he's going to run in.

That's a touchdown.

5 yard TD run by Brayden Buzzo.

The sophomore has scored.

And he's made the score 24 to 20.

And usually, two point conversions really matter a lot.

This one, not so much.

Either way, you score a touchdown, you take the lead again after.

It's really going to come down to can they get a stop?

There's only four minutes left in this game.

And if Copper Island will see what they're able to do, unfortunately, I'm going to have to turn the lights on at the next break, too, because I can't see in the booth anymore.

24-20, glad to trail it.

Fuzzle back to pass on the two-point conversion, off the left, and it's going to be dribbled and caught.

That's Logie with a great catch over there.

We're going to stay with it.

And that's his second.

2-point.

2-point conversion.

The score is 24 to 22.

If we do need a little break, you're 24-22.

Stick around, folks.

402 to the left.

We'll do that in 30 seconds.

Bold, independent, self-reliant.

They're more than just words on a resume.

They're representative of a confidence in both mindset and skill set that only comes from hands-on experience.

They're what set a Go-Gibbock Community College student apart.

Visit Go-Gibbock.com

I

think it's plenty of time, but they are going to need to stop

or

maybe the second turnover of the game wouldn't hurt

him.

Nonetheless, Amos will kick off first.

Don't you dare kick it deep.

He does kick it deep.

It's to the left of Hainan, and he fields it off one hop.

He's to the 15, he's to the 20, looking for space.

He's found it on the left-hand side.

He's still in his feet.

He's going to be up near the 40, but probably at the 37 yard liner.

So, for Copper Island, it'll take over first and 10.

That's

why I like the squid play.

You know, you're already at the 30, 35 when you get it

with

a

chance.

to maybe get them all back.

It's kind of dangerous to kick it deep.

There's just too much room out there.

Every team puts their best athlete back there.

So it's always a dangerous guy.

354

left in this game.

Gladiators have crawled back almost all the way.

One more

time

now.

They're discussing.

They know the situation.

They have to move the ball.

They don't want to give the ball back.

The offense is at Alamogno.

Big play.

Clayton Kin with that.

I'm going to call it a 65, 70 yard touchdown.

Big

return with the spark.

And that just got him off this night.

And since then, they've scored two more times.

22 on

it.

24 to

nothing.

Yeah, it was 24 to nothing.

That's right.

And then he scored to make it 24-6, and they have held Copper Island since then.

I mean, really, it was at Copper Island, their drive to come out in the second half, where they took half the third quarter.

They

haven't done a whole lot since.

Thanks to that, no.

But they did it once, and they've kind of, I don't want to say abandoned the run.

They abandoned the run.

But they haven't been running the ball.

No.

All right.

A lot more passing.

I'd be shocked they don't go back to running the ball more here, though.

You've got high formation, Hayden is under center.

I think his brother's at full back there, it looks like.

We'll see.

Give it to the tail back.

He's out the right hand side.

Not

much there.

Pretty good defense.

Holmström, Baboula.

And we'll see who gets up there.

That was right about that.

It was Kangus that was tailback on that play.

You're going to have credit to Holmström and Baboula on that tackle.

It's a short game, second down and nine.

DJ is right there too.

Now, DJ is playing left end on there, I think, right?

DJ Anderson?

He's right in front of us.

Three and a half year to go and I mean copper island and we saw the crystal falls do this last week And they played a real smart where they ran a clock down a lot every play We'll see how well copper island executes that same idea because that's what you want to do is just eat up the clock is More important than anything at this point.

Yeah And they're taking their time It's gonna be a shotgun set and then he's not gonna get this ball up.

There's no way he's gonna go right hand side

And he cuts up field with a little bit of room, breaks one tackle, and he's tripped up at a nice gain.

It's going to set up a third down in just a few.

And then the other question is, when do you start using your timeouts here too?

Defensively, yeah.

I kind of like the idea of you try to stop them without getting the first first down and then start using them as probably the right play.

I don't know why the clock has stopped here for that matter.

There it goes.

I don't know why it was stopped anyway.

Third down and one.

We've got 245 left in this game.

It's a big play.

It is a short short one.

Yeah Probably barely put the football between the yard marker and the first down marker.

It's got to be pretty tight two and a half here to go

Hayden

ends in the shotgun.

He's waiting for the referee to start counting down the play clock Which he will do right now two and a half to go as they snap the ball.

He's gonna keep it right hand side and he's gonna get the first down Nice hard run there by Vince Hayden in

This is where you got to maybe use your first one?

I think you should right here.

If you wait for three more plays, there's not going to be a whole lot of game left.

There's 220 left on the clock.

It's going to tick down to right around two minutes before they snap this next play.

Might even be under.

I'm thinking it's a 25 second play clock, I believe.

They spotted it at 220.

So we'll see if they snap it here.

We have 205 to go.

Clock ticking.

Referee hasn't signaled the play clock yet.

We're under two.

Shotgun formation.

One more to see where he's side.

Hayden then's got his hands on his hips.

He's not going to snap it until the ref makes him.

Now he's going to 150 left.

Snap is good.

Pass early.

Fake hand up to Kengis.

Hayden then keeps it.

Spins off two defenders and he's got a first down and a gain of a lot as well.

And he's inside the 40 yard line.

Oh, the gladiators.

Oh,

clutch two first downs by Copper Island.

140 to go.

Clock is ticking away.

Again, when do you start pulling the trigger on some of these timeouts?

You have all three.

Yeah, I think.

I mean, you might kind of wait till you get like you win a first down, which they haven't been able to do.

Yeah.

But now you're running out of time where they have to call it after this play, regardless of how this goes down.

Getting the gladiators trail by two but copper island has the ball and there's not a whole lot of time left here 115 left.

They're gonna snap it right around 110.

I imagine Now comes that 112.

Hey man keeping it all the way right inside He's got a little bit of room cuts back.

They're gonna call holding on this That'll stop the clock and move them back.

It looked like he got tackled trying to go through

that hole And it's hard to tell who that is.

It's either Becker That was

Beck.

That was Beck on that one who got

held

Did a great job making it through the gap, just got tackled as he did it.

That's a penetration, like he ruined their play.

If they're kind of forced them to tackle them.

And we

haven't had

enough

of

that throughout the game, I don't think.

No, I gotta give credit, so I mean, Copper Island for second varsity, they played well.

It's hard to discredit them, they played fine.

The Gladiators' first half, I say it was so, so second half they played pretty well.

Just isn't a whole bunch of time left.

It's going to be first down and 20.

Now you have to use a timeout after this play.

And I doubt if Hayden is going to hand this ball off.

It's going to be Vince Hayden in the shotgun.

Two wide receivers right hand side.

I'd be shocked if he doesn't run with this ball here.

His brother's in motion and it's a fake to his brother.

He keeps it right hand side.

He's got just a few actually pretty nice gains.

Probably five or six.

Now here comes the timeout with exactly one minute

left.

How do you break up that play?

You almost have to call a blitz and try to force a fumble or you're going to tackle for a loss.

They're going to be able to call two more timeouts.

First down here would end the game.

So they have to get a stop right now.

Even then, there's not going to be a ton of time, especially for wherever they're going to end up if they do get the ball back.

It's going to be a long field.

Not a lot of clocks left

a figure if they get stops on second and third down They're still gonna be able to run their whole play clock down until four to their fourth down play.

I think right?

So no wait, I'm wrong about that.

It'll be up They won't get to run the clock down.

That's the one row,

but

then so you're figuring still like maybe 40 seconds They have when they get the ball back.

That's not a ton of time But it is

Not over yet either.

It's still time.

But first things last.

They have to get a stop right here.

Second down in 14.

One minute to go in this game.

Gladier's trail by two.

Hannon's going to be in a shotgun set.

He's got Kangus as a wing to his left.

He's going to keep this all the way left-hand side.

Oh, there's a great movement by the Copper Island team there.

Good blocking.

He's up for seven, eight, 10.

And a first down.

And he's going to fumble for a first down.

And Copper Island is going to win a tight game, it looks like.

Glad he just got to call a timeout there, I think.

You just got to give up 15 on a second down run for it.

You notice it came down to this last possession, and only one guy carried the ball for Copper Island.

Yeah.

Number 10, that's Vince Heinenin, or Heynenin, rather.

He had every carry, and he has carried them.

I mean, presumably to a victory, they would need to turn the ball over with a bad snap or something like that here at the end of the game for it not to go that way.

Oh,

and a gladiator.

This was a really good effort in the second half, but it looks like they're going to come up short unless there's a big disaster here.

I've never announced a miracle yet either.

Could that happen?

I don't

know.

Didn't get to announce a game-winning buzzer beater one time, which is pretty cool.

And water is

neat.

Little metal lands action going to happen

now?

That'd be something else, right?

It has happened.

I want to say that play with the Giants years ago was that Kerm Edwards recovered a fumble on a play where they were going to kneel the ball down and score the touchdown.

He just

ran it.

Sit.

Stranger things have happened.

46.5 left.

They're in the victory celebration.

They're just going to have to execute two snaps, and they're going to win this football game.

And Hanan is under center, and he is successfully kneeled one time.

They'll have one more.

Wow, they might do two if they call a timeout here.

I don't know if they're going to bother or not, though.

Unfortunately, they're going to come up short here Labor Day weekend.

It might as well do my shameless plug.

I'll be all around selling 50-50 tickets all weekend.

Please buy them, folks.

We pay for your parade.

prayed prizes and bands and games and it's a fun weekend.

I'll be dressed rather obnoxiously and I'm very loud if you miss me you're blind.

There's 20 seconds left in this game, one more snap and I believe that's gonna do it.

And we witnessed the first ever victory for Copper Island Academy's football program.

They're gonna win this one 24-22.

Good comeback by the gladiators but they're gonna come up short.

And we're going to do a post-game show.

We won't take a lot of time getting back here, though, because I know folks got stuff to do.

WUPUI 101 coverage of high school football.

The gladiators unfortunately have fallen to 0 and 2.

They lose to Copper Island Academy 24-22.

Pretty crazy second half though.

It was 16-0 coming into the second half.

Copper Island Academy had a nice drive where they took up, I think it was six and a half, seven minutes on the opening possession.

Wade Costco ended up getting a 15 yard reception from Vince Hainanen that made the score 22-0 and then it was Hainanen to Hainanen that's Vince the victor on the two-point conversion to make it 24-0.

Clayton can't score on the following play.

We're not exactly sure how far it was.

We're going to call it a 65 to 70 yard kick return touchdown.

So a huge play by Clayton made it 24 to 6.

The two-point conversion failed, and that turned out to be a very big deal.

That was a 508 left in the third quarter.

Later on in the third was 16.3 seconds left.

Ryan Holmstrom had a one yard TD run to make it 24-12.

And then Braden Buzzal of the sophomore threw it to Cam Logie for a two-point conversion to make it 24-14.

Buzzo follows that up with a 5-yard TD run, later on to make it 24-20, and then Buzzo to Logi again on the 2-point conversion, making it 24-22.

However, they couldn't get the stop at the end, and Vince Hainan ran every play on that last possession to give Copperhide enough first downs to win the game.

All in all, pretty good effort.

How do the gladiators bounce back from this one now?

Got it, big D.

And it's not like they've played horrible games the first two weeks, it's just been...

only half games that they really played.

The first half they just struggled both games.

I thought moving the ball a lot better in the second half, but that first half they didn't move the ball at

all.

No, like none actually.

I mean they fumbled their opening drive and just kind of didn't get going for the rest of the half.

No, it's been a little bit of a struggle so far this year.

There's a lot of football left, though.

They have seven games.

I don't plan on being at the next one.

That'll be at powers.

That's a bit out of my price range of college, but it'll be back here in two weeks.

We're going to do the best summer game right here in Antonagon.

Hopefully you'll join us.

And I'm going to call that a wrap for tonight.

It's Labor Day weekend, folks.

We've got stuff to do.

Glad year's fall to the Copper Island Academy Eagles 24-22.

They were spry, but the Copper Island team was just a little bit better.

They get their first victory, so congratulations to them.

And we'll see you in two weeks.

Thanks for being here.

Robbie, thanks for manning the studio.

Have a good night, folks.

We'll see you next time.
