Dimond’s 20-19 state football championship win over defending champion Eielson had all that and more in front of 3,000 fans at Anchorage Football Stadium Saturday. For the Lynx, the win erased the painful memory of last year’s state playoff nightmare. For Eielson, it will begin a new memory: coming up 37 yards short of winning its 20th straight game. And for Dimond head coach Danny Stevens, who considered resigning after last season, the championship ended his Lynx coaching career on the happiest note possible. “This is what I came back for,” said Stevens, who will move to Tennessee next week. “I wanted to come back and win the state championship. That was my goal.” Eielson for a second chance on the game’s last drive, but it turned into a microcosm of the entire contest. The Dimond secondary – especially Dietrich Moore, Dauris Aldridge, and Garland Pittman – kept the Raven receivers covered all day, forcing Leonard to run. One the last two Eielson drives, Lenoard completed just two of six passes and ran four times. On the last run, the senior rushed for a 7 yard gain with 40 seconds left to give the Ravens a first down at the Dimond 43. They looked like ghouls. “It was to get the guys up a little bit,” said Klingenmeyer. “In a championship game, anything goes.” Halloween is still a week away, but the 8-1 Dimond Lynx can dress up as champions after beating an Eielson squad that hadn’t lost since the 1991 state championship game. But Leonard couldn’t find anybody open on the game’s final two plays, ending the game and his wonderful career with two straight incompletions. The Lynx also pulled off its most ambitious goal: sending their head coach off into the sunset, holding a championship trophy in thi air like a cowboy’s pistol firing away in celebration. “They covered people very well,” said Nystrom. “Mike had a hard time to throw, but we had a hard time getting people open.” “I have mixed emotions about leaving,” said Stevens. “But it was an exciting game. That’s football. There’s no better way to leave.” Eielson also had trouble-stopping Klingenmeyer. The 6 foot, 205 pound senior consistently plowed through the Eielson defense like he was possessed. Dimond: 6-8-0-6 – 20 Eielson: 0-7-6-6 – 19 In fact, Klingenmeyer looked like he did have a devil inside him. He and Lorenz – voted the offensive and defensive players of the game , respectively – painted their faces white with black circles drawn around their eyes. But Stevens and the Lynx got the championship – Dimond’s first since 1983 – by the smallest of margins. The Ravens, who came into the game hoping to hand head coach Buck Nystrom his 100th career coaching victory, drove 51 yards in the final two minutes of the game, yearning for a game winning touchdown. Eielson, though, had no timeouts during the entire drive, which ended with quarterback Mike Leonard – who had trouble finding open receivers all day – throwing the ball from the Dimond 37 yard line and over the endzone as the final seconds ticked off. When the final whistle blew, the Lynx mobbed each other and hugged Stevens, who ended his Lynx coaching career with a 21-19 record. “It was close,” said Dimond senior Korey Klingenmeyer, who rushed for 122 yards and two touchdowns. “But that just makes the victory that much sweeter.” The victory tasted like honey to a team that won its first Cook Inlet Football Conference title in nine years last season, but lost to Soldotna in the state semifinals. This year’s team played on the emotion of past disappointments: never forgetting the Soldotna loss nor the 47-14 defeat at Eielson on Sept. 4. “The guys from last year’s team have been calling,” said Dimond defensive tackle Jami Lorenz, who had one sack and numerous tackles. “I’m gonna call or write them all now.” One thing that should be included in Lorenz’s rundown is that Eielson, a three-time Railbelt Conference champion that’s been in the state title game for the past three years, came oh-so-close to taking the game away from the Lynx. Eielson fullback John Henderson completed a nine play, 62 yard drive late in the fourth quarter with a 1 yard touchdown plunge, cutting Dimond’s lead to one point. The Ravens went for the two point conversion only to come up inches short when Leonard ran the football on a sneak and was stopped at the goal line. “He’s 6-6 and they said he didn’t cross the line,” said Eielson head coach Buck Nystrom, whose team ended the season with a 10-1 record. “How far can he extend himself?” 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships 9 10 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships See the Stars of Tomorrow!

Kenai struck quickly, too – all four scoring drives lasted less than 2 minutes, 33 seconds. By: Van Williams Anchorage Daily News Last season, Chappell moved from wide receiver to quarterback just two games before the playoffs. After leading the Kardinasl to the state tile as a rookie quarterback, there was no doubt who would quarterback Kenai this season. Small Schools: Kardinals stop Eielson to repeat as champions The Eielson Ravens entered the small school football championship riding a five game winning streak and sporting a high scoring offense that averaged 32 points a game. But it was a different story Saturday afternoon against the Kenai Kardinals. Eielson had difficulty crossing midfield, never mind the goal line. Kenai’s stingy defense and quick strike offense turned the championship game into a mismatch as the Kardinals rolled to a 46-0 victory at Anchorage Football Stadium for their second straight state championship. Kenai players stormed the field after the final whistle, congratulating each other and raising their helmets into the air. The outcome was never in question, but the players waited until it was official before the party started. “This is the best feeling of my life,” said Kenai defensive lineman Kenny Dormandy. The Kardinals (9-1) ended the season on a nine-game winning streak. And like last season, when they beat Soldotna 7-0 in the title game, they wrapped things up with a shutout. “The credit has to go to the kids because they made plays,” head coach Jim Besson said. “It was a great team effort, but we’ve been doing that all year long.” Kenai owned a 369-71 advantage in yardage and seemed able to score at will, thank largely to the potent tandem of quarterback Cole Chappell and running back Dakota Craig, who combined for six rushing touchdowns, including four by Craig. Chappell orchestrated Kenai’s option-heavy offense beautifully. When he wasn’t keeping the ball for large chunks of yardage, he was pitching it to Craig for runs to the outside. Craig, a workhorse who had 29 carries, rushed for a game-high 176 yards – eight times more than the entire Eielson backfield – and Chappell added 104 yards on 12 carries. “We got blocks all day long,” Craig said. “Big holes.” Chappell and Craig exchanged touchdown “He’s really developed as a leader in terms of reading what the defenses are doing,” Beeson said. “he made some plays today. Running the option, he was phenomenal.” But it was Kenai’s defense which set the tone for the blowout, shutting down Eielson’s air assault and invading the Ravens’ backfield so often that you’d think the Kardinals knew what the Ravens were going to do before the ball was snapped. “We pretty much knew on every play what they were gonna run,” said Craig, who plays linebacker on defense. “That’s the most pressure we’ve seen all year,” said Eielson coach Dave DeVaughn, whose team finished with an 8-2 record. “We knew they were coming, but they flat out beat us on the offensive line and the defensive line.” “If you haven’t seen it before, its hard to get used to it in one game. There’s no second chance.” Kenai became the second team to defend its state title joining the Nikiski Bulldogs of 2000 and 2001, since the small school playoff system began four years ago. Beeson, in his 14th season with the Kenai program took about five minutes to savor the title before looking ahead. “We want to be the first team to win three in a row,” Beeson said. “It’s never too early to start thinking about next year.” Eielson: 0-0-0-0 – 0 Kenai: 14-12-7-13 – 46 A swarming, aggressive defense keyed by seniors Geordon Main and Dormandy, and sophomores Clint Keener and Papapa Nicholas, collected nine sacks, forced seven punts and limited Eielson’s offense to just four first downs. The most telling statistic though, was that the Ravens moved the ball into Kenai territory only once in the final 24 minutes. “We pride ourselves on defense,” Craig said. Eielson quarterback Evan Skinner, who entered the game as the state’s fifth leading passer, was a nonfactor as his arm strength was nullified by a blood thirsty pass rush that regularly chased him from the pocket. Skinner, a junior, completed just 2 of 11 passes for 49 yards – 60 below his season average – and threw an interception on the final play of the first half. 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships 23 24 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships Large School Playoff Bracket Quarterfinals Semifinals Final Lathrop - 0 RBC #3 1 CIC #1 West Anch - 19 South Anch - 22 CIC #3 2 West Anch H OM E Anchorage Football Stadium 10/18/13 6:30 pm V I S I TOR Palmer Championship Anchorage Football Stadium 10/26/13 RBC #2 Palmer - 25 Dimond - 38 CIC #5 3 RBC #1 Colony- 17 Chugiak - 6 CIC #4 4 4:00 pm Dimond V I S I TOR Anchorage Football Stadium 10/19/13 4:00 pm H OM E Service CIC #2 Service- 47 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships 25 SUBWAY® RESTAURANT LOCATIONS: ® Anchorage Bethel Denali Park Eagle River Eielson Fairbanks Homer Juneau Kenai Ketchikan Kodiak Nome North Pole Palmer Seward Sitka Soldotna Talkeetna Valdez Wasilla ART • MUSIC RUNNING • TENNIS FOOTBALL • SWIMMING & DIVING VOLLEYBALL • WRESTLING • HOCKEY WORLD LANGUAGE • DEBATE • DRAMA • FORENSICS SKIING • BASKETBALL • TRACK & FIELD • SOCCER SOFTBALL • BASEBALL • CHEERLEADING 2011 Doctor’s Associates Inc.

He began his dance, a thunderbird flap of the arms mixed with a steady soulful bounce off the Anchorage Football Stadium turf as the final seconds vanished from the scoreboard Saturday in the state football championship. It didn’t take long for the rest of the boys in East’s gridiron band to get into the act. Before long, the entire team was bouncing and screaming. “East-side.” “T-Birds.” The grand finale for quite a show. “Not much rhythm, though,” Flair said. So what. Champions can close however they want. The second ranked East High football team overcame its share of adversity en route to claiming the large school state title with a 33-15 win over top ranked Juneau-Douglas. The Thunderbirds (8-2) fell into a double digit hole, lost their leading rusher to injury and trailed for almost three full quarters. But in the end, they won their seventh straight game, did a little dancing and hoisted their first championship trophy since 1990. “This group is so much fun,” said Roger Spackman, who concluded his fourth season with his first title. “Sometimes, we had to pull them back a bit for having too much fun. I’m so happy. I’m sitting here thinking maybe this isn’t a big deal for me, but it sure is for the kids.” Flair, East’s star senior wide receiver, and compatriot Derek Laws, the senior quarterback, capped their record-setting careers by hooking up for three touchdowns. Flair caught eight of Laws’ nine completions for 102 yards. But the usually air-heavy Thunderbirds leaned on the legs of backup senior tailback Ozelle Jamestown and senior fullback Hayward Gabourel to grind past Juneau. Jamestown and Gabourel combined for 204 of East’s 272 rushing yards after being pressed into more active duty when Ryan Stickler, who entered the game with a team high 1,089 yards in nine games, sprained his left ankle in the first quarter. “At the start of our sophomore season, Derek and I told coach we wanted to make a legacy,” said Flair, the state’s all-time leading receiver in catches and touchdowns. “Tonight we did that, but after three years it wasn’t just about Derek and me. It was about everyone.” Stickler’s injury came one play after Juneau superback Brian Felix cruised 76 yards to give the Crimson Bears a 15-0 lead. “When Ozelle checked in I told him it was him and me,” said Gabourel, a 5-foot-11, 225-pound mound of lead blocker. “I was going to block hard or run hard. When he got the ball, either way, I was going to do my job.” Jamestown, behind the dominant play of East’s offensive line, rushed for a game high 162 yards and two touchdowns. “Our offensive line played so well, we knew we could almost run at will in the second half,” Spackman said. “Ozelle had to deal with some injuries and other things this season, so it’s great he is getting some of the glory now.” Jamestowns’ first touchdown run, a 10-yard run in the third quarter, gave East a 19-15 edge and erased the memories of Juneau’s early 15-0 lead. He added a 29-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter. Juneau, playing in its first title game since becoming a varsity program in 1991, tired everything it could to keep East from running past it. But the Crimson Bears, dealing with Felix’s lingering knee injury suffered in last weekend’s semifinals and a knock to the knee of all out weapon C.J. Keys in the second half Saturday, couldn’t withstand the onslaught. “Maybe we got too overconfident too quick,” said Felix, a junior who ran for 137 yards on 25 carries, but only 61 yards after long, first quarter touchdown. “East have such a good offensive and defensive line and so many good players on the team.” Felix insisted his sprained knee didn’t hinder him. “I’m all right, I’ve got the entire off-season to heal up,” he said. East’s defense held Juneau (8-3) to 226 total yards, 139 below its season’s average. The Thunderbirds also avenged a 42-18 regular season loss at Juneau. That and the state title would make anyone get their groove on. “There is just so much excitement, so much emotion,” Flair said. “We had to jump for joy because everything we have done has finally paid off.” Juneau-Douglas: 15-0-0-0 – 15 East Anchorage: 7-6-6-14 – 33 30 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships Large School Rosters & Photos Palmer Moose # 7 8 12 16 17 18 20 22 25 26 27 28 31 34 37 38 39 40 42 44 49 50 51 53 61 62 64 65 66 68 69 71 72 74 77 78 79 80 81 82 86 87 88 Name Vincent Aumavae Darian Angol Zeth Merritt Justin Roth Nathan Corporon Kohei Wantanabe Mason Cochran Cody Wells James Nisbett Matt Donithan Logan Ahrens Tanner Watson Luke Wright Brady Southwick Chase Farris Wayne Hershman David Schneider Benjamin Aumavae Joey LeCheminant Wyatt McGann Jacob Inukai Ben Button Nick Daniels Caleb Deemer Kristopher Don Adam Christiansen Chris Barber Gradon Powell Jerimiah Combs Quinton Phillips Paton Garretson Nick Benshetler Brian Thompson Ryker Carrington Gunner Deemer Garrett Williams Evan Colbert Keene McMaster Nick Corbin Shoya Watanabe Florim Hajdari Dylan Pollard Carl Berg Jared Layton Sala Aumavae Eli Heindel Travis Wheeler School Colors Blue/White Principal Reese Everett Athletic Administrator Dale Ewart Head Coach Rod Christiansen Assistant Coaches Keith Armstrong Brad Hanson Position RB/DB WR/DB QB/DB Qb/DB RB/DB RB/DB RB/DB WR/LB RB/DB WR/DB WR/DB WR/DB RB/DB TE/LB WR/DB RB/LB RB/LB RB/LB RB/LB RB/LB WR/DB/K OL/DL RB/LB OL/LB OL/LB OL/LB OL/LB OL/LB DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL TE/LB FB/LB WR/DB WR/DB TE/LB WR/DB RB/DB OL/DL OL/DL OL/DL Tim Popowski Kay Omer Bert Verall Managers Brianna Ashley Sharita Casagranda Shaelyn VanAusdal Year 12 11 12 10 10 11 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 10 10 10 12 12 12 10 12 11 10 12 10 11 12 11 12 12 10 11 12 10 12 10 12 12 12 11 12 11 10 10 9 9 9 Ht. 5'9" 5'11" 5'9" 5'7" 5'9" 6'0" 5'7" 6'2" 5'9" 5'11" 5'11" 5'7" 5'6' 6'2" 5'10 5'10" 5'11" 6'0" 6'2" 5'9' 6'0" 5'10" 5'9" 5'10 5'7" 6'0" 6'0" 5'8" 5'8" 5'9" 5'9" 6'1" 6'2" 5'9" 6'4" 6'0" 6'6" 5'10" 5'10" 6'0" 5'9" 5'10 5'9" 5'11 6'2" 6'0" 5'10" Service Cougars Season: 6-2 # 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 11 15 16 18 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 35 36 40 42 44 47 50 52 53 54 55 56 57 60 64 66 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 80 82 88 Name Position IHRO RAGUINDIN WR/DB Thavun Srisaneha WR/DB ERIC JONES RB/DB NYEEM JOHNSON WR/DB ARMEND ALIJU WR/DB MONTI BIBBS WR/DB NASHON FROMM WR/DB CJ TOOMER QB MATTHEW WALLENDER WR/DB EMETRIUS MCLEOD WR/LB ALLEN TREVON WR/DB TYLER MORRELL-BUCY WR/DB MARK HOGAN WR/DB/QB DARREN TATUM QB/DB DEONTA WASHINGTONWR/DB GREG MAMIKUNIAN WR/DB LEVI HANSEN RB/LB DOMINIK NORMAN RB NICHOLAS JENKINS RB/LB JORDAN SUMMERLIN RB/LB KEKOA FOMAI TE/LB HALEIGH VAN ALLEN K SERGIO PERREDA RB/LB DREW BLEAKLEY TE/DB ALEC AGUILA WR/DB NATHAN FROMM WR/DB NAEEM EVANS RB/LB DENZEL HOGAN RB NICHOLAS STEVENS OL/DL JESSE PUFF RB/DL HEKILI FOMAI OL/DL RHYS SANDS C NICHOLAS CRUZ OL/DL GIL WILLIAMS OL/DL CHANCE WETHERINGTONOL/DL CODY LANDERS OL LOGAN DAMERON OL JUSTINE MOJICA OL/DL DANIEL AUELUA OL/DL COLE PHELPS 0L/DL DANIEL SPARKS OL/DL ROZNEY CARLINO OL/DL RAYMOND MCDOWELL OL/DL BRANDON ISHNOOK OL/DL AJ POE OL/DL DEACON KELLY WR KORVEL BOYD WR/DB KEKUMA TUIOFU WR School Colors Green and Gold Hannah Moore Haley Hershman Principal John Gaskins Statisticians Roy Roth Athletic Administrator Jason Caldarera Trainers Ted Sipos Head Coach Kevin Kern Assistant Coaches Brown Faaaliga Will Fomai Corey Lindamood Hans Wilhelm Bernardo Otero Tony Maldonado Alex Jefferies Austin Anderson John Bilyeu Managers SARA COTHRAN KENDALL MASNERI Year 12 12 12 12 12 11 12 12 11 11 11 11 9 11 11 12 12 9 12 12 12 11 11 11 12 9 11 11 11 12 11 12 12 11 12 12 12 10 11 10 11 11 10 11 11 12 12 12 Ht. 5'11 5'10 5'8 5'5 5'8 5'5 6'2 5'11 5'7 6'0 6'0 5'9 5'10 5'10 5'6 5'7 5'11 5'10 5'9 5'8 5'10 5'6 5'11 5'11 5'6 6'1 5'9 5'7 6'0 5'9 6'2 5'8 5'8 5'9 6'4 5'8 6'0 5'8 5'11 5'11 5'10 5'10 6'1 5'11 5'8 6'1 6'0 6'1 Statisticians Meghan Lockner Mackenzie Banburry Michael Buzinski Trainers LACIE LAMBE BAILEY BLEAKLEY KYLIE POTTER Team Accomplishments this season: Finished 2nd in the CIC 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships 31 32 2013 First National Bowl Football Championships Large School Rosters & Photos South Anchorage Wolverines Roster Not Available West Anchorage Eagles # Name 1 Sean Duffy 2 Gelano Bell 3 Turek Taylor 5 Jake Faualo 7 Dave Tuilimu 8 Jolynda McMillan 9 Marquise Rayford 10 Leroy Elliott, Jr. 12 Tyrone Davis 13 Chad Young 20 Ross Boling 21 Chardo Elliott 23 D.C.
