Panthers,
“They are a good team,”
Lennemann said of Oakley.
“They are always really good
and they had some of their
better players back, but we still
practiced to go against their
best players and go around the
outside and I think it worked
pretty good.”
Phillipsburg clearly was prepared, forcing Oakley to punt
on its first possession before
finishing its first offensive drive
with a 7-yard touchdown run
by Lennemann, the first of
five scores he would have in
the game. The Panthers led
14-0 after a quarter following
Lennemann’s second TD, a
27-yard run.
Big plays weren’t exclusive
to Lennemann, however, as
senior Sam Sage broke free
for a 55-yard touchdown run
early in the second quarter, of
which Lennemann followed
with a 36-yard scoring run on
the next possession to make it
28-0 Phillipsburg with 8:03 to
play until half.
“The Kuhn kid, the big,
physical kid causes a lot of
problems right at the point of
attack where we like to attack
a lot of the times,” Covington
said. “I thought we did a really
nice job on him. They are an
awfully good football team.
They can lineup a lot of big
guys, big bodies up across the
front.”
After getting steamrolled
the first quarter and a half,
Oakley found life late in the
first half. Following Lennemann’s third score, Oakley
came back with an eight-play
drive, all runs, and finished it
with a 1-yard TD plunge by
junior Colter Stoll.
After the defense held Phillipsburg and was given great
field position on a botched
punt attempt, Oakley’s next
drive also ended in a score.
The Plainsmen went 30 yards
in about 25 seconds, sophomore quarterback Kendrick
Smith finding junior Macoy
Rains for an 8-yard TD pass
with 4.9 seconds to play in the
period.
With their lead cut to 28-12
at halftime, Phillipsburg knew
it needed to respond coming
out of the locker room.
“I thought coming out we
felt like we needed to put a
drive together,” Covington
said. “They made a nice run
at us at the end of the first
half. We felt like we had to put
a drive together and stick one
in the end zone. Obviously the
kickoff was big and then the
second quick score was huge
for us.”
The Panthers’ answer was
two scores in the first 1:15 of
the third quarter to put the
game away. The first came
on the opening kickoff, when
Lennemann let the ball get
from C1
AUSTIN COLBERT • Hays Daily News
Phillipsburg senior Stuart Lennemann (1) carries the ball
against Oakley on Friday in the Class 2-1A sectional game
in Oakley.
Oakley sophomore Kendrick Smith, left, looks to pass while
being rushed by Phillipsburg’s Ian Chestnut (2) and Drew
Stapel (65).
behind him and looked like he
would be taken down around
his own 10-yard line, but used
his track speed to break free
around the right side for the
touchdown.
Oakley’s first second-half
drive was all of one play, an
interception by Phillipsburg’s
Zachery Davis on Smith,
and it took two plays for the
Panthers to score, this time
on a 60-yard touchdown run
by junior Nate Prewitt.
For good measure, Lennemann scored once more, a
45-yard run early in the third
quarter to reach the 48-12
final.
“I think we were getting
things blocked up pretty well
up front. I thought Oakley
had a really nice game plan,
defensively, coming in against
us,” Covington said. “But
Stuart is one of those guys
that’s really developed. Early
on we knew he was fast all
along, obviously, but he’s a
guy that’s not afraid to stick
his nose up in the hole there
and run through some tackles
now, too.”
Lennemann finished with
122 yards on just 12 carries,
while Sage added 103 on
eight carries and Prewitt 101
on nine carries. Stoll led all
players with 164 yards on 33
carries for Oakley.
“It was a tremendous
team effort,” Covington said.
“I thought we played well
in all three phases of the
game. Our guys up front got
it done.”
Gordon wins pole; Harvick top Chase finalist
HOMESTEAD, Fla.
(TNS) — It was a bittersweet
achievement for Jeff Gordon
as he won his first pole at
Homestead-Miami Speedway
for today’s season-ending Ford
EcoBoost 400.
The favorable spot on the
starting grid won’t give the veteran a shot at the Sprint Cup
title after he failed to qualify for
the Championship 4 by one
point when Ryan Newman
bulled his way past Kyle Larson last week at Phoenix.
2-1A,
from C3
But the Cardinals who
never trailed in this one.
In the first quarter, Areco
connected with Jacobson on
a 49 yard rainbow that put
his team at the Leopards’ 2.
Walters slipped over from the
1 a couple of plays later and
Arceo hit Jacobson for the
2-point conversion to make
it 8-0.
La Crosse answered with
Schmidt’s 41-yard burst early
in the second quarter to cut it
to 8-6, but Ell-Saline was on
the move after that.
Areco called his number
three times for 24 yards, Walters slipped outside for 17 and
Jacobson hauled in a 20-yard
toss to put the ball at the La
Crosse 9, first and goal. After
Bradley dropped a pass in the
