CAL Cross Country Goes to CAI
This past Saturday, August 13th, the running
Centurions ran their
first race at Christian
Academy of Indiana.
The “Warrior 4 Miler”
is a road race infamous
for its steep hills and
hot weather, but the
team toughed it out. The team makes the annual trip to Albany,
Indiana to support CAI’s student scholarship program as well
as the school system’s running program’s. As their season’s
looking bright and many new runners have joined, this was a
fun way to start the season; however, they’re looking forward
to their first official cross country meet in J-Town next week.

Shelby County Invitational held at Weissinger Hills Golf Course. Grace led

contributed to the CAL team total.

From there, CAL’s hard work paid off as #3 Babin
sacked the quarterback early in the 2nd quarter. #2 Braden Wilson
carried the ball down to the 15 yard line setting up #3 Babin to
score followed by the extra point made by #12 Newton Games.
As Moore kicks off, Geren catches the ball running it down field.
#20 Brayden Daniels takes it to the end zone for another Centurion touchdown. Then it’s Wilson scoring on the 2 point conversion. In the 3rd quarter Daniels gets a pick 6 and scores, and
Games steps in to quarterback, passing to #3 Babin for the extra
2 points. #22 Conner Haun brings in another touchdown and the
extra point is, again, good.
As Coach Sabatino says,”It’s a tackle
party, bring your friends!” Outstanding knock-downs by #22 Conner
Haun, #23 Conner Carr, #35 Adam
Ballard, and #27 Andrew Dupps.
Stepping in to play receiver with some
fantastic blocking was #11 Joshua
Spainhour.
Final score: CAL 37- Moore 6

7TH GRADE FOOTBALL OPENS THE SEASON WITH A WIN
On Saturday, August 6, 2016, the 7th grade football team kicked off the season in Elizabethtown against the
Trojans of James T. Alton Middle School. Connor Carr received the opening kickoff and returned the ball to
the Trojans 45 yard line. On the opening play from the line of scrimmage Quarterback Robert Ehrenborg
handed the ball off to Carr for a 20 yard gain. Two plays later Carr scampered in from 14 yards out for the
game’s first score. CAL took an early 6-0 lead with 4:04 to go in the opening quarter.
On the ensuing kickoff by Jonah Mattingly, Luke Heuke and Jeffrey “Deuce” DeBellis combined to knock the
ball loose and Heuke recovered the ball at midfield. Ehrenborg then went to the air and connected with Caleb
Thompson for 24 yards that brought the ball down to the 26 yard line. CAL then went back to the running
game which featured Carr and Thompson taking turns carrying the ball. The CAL offense struck again when
Ehrenborg aired it out to Adam Ballard from about 5 yards out for another touchdown. CAL led after the first
quarter 12-0.
CAL kicked the ball off to start the 2nd quarter. After a couple of short gains by the Trojan offense, Matthew
Mauzy made his presence felt when he dropped the Trojans ball carrier for a 6 yard loss. Facing 4th down and
10 yards, Braeden Davis got in the back field and put a lot of pressure on the Trojans quarterback and forced
an incomplete pass. The Centurions took over on downs. Thompson picked up 11 yards and brought the
Centurions to midfield on CAL’s first offensive play of the 2nd quarter. Carr then took the handoff and blasted through the line and out ran everyone for a 43 yard touchdown run to pay dirt. This extended CAL’s lead
to 18-0.
Deuce DeBellis and Braeden Davis combined for a nice open field tackle on the ensuing kickoff. Dylan
Schwartz knocked down a pass intended for a Trojan receiver. A Trojan pass attempt on 4th and 12 fell harmlessly to the turf, allowing the Centurions to take over again on downs at their own 37 yard line. Thompson
gained 19 yards on the ground and had his eyes on the end zone before being tripped up on a touchdown saving shoe-string tackle. Thompson followed that up with another nifty run picking up 9 more yards bringing
the Centurions down to the 10 yard line. A holding call negated a touchdown pass for the Centurions. Facing
4th down and 15 yards, Carr broke loose for a 21 yard touchdown scamper down the right sideline as the horn
sounded. At halftime, CAL led 26-0.
Mattingly kicked off for the Centurions to start the 2nd half. The CAL defense forced the Trojans backwards
before taking over on downs. CAL did not waste any time lighting up the scoreboard again. Thompson outran everyone for a 36 yard touchdown. Ehrenborg connected with Carr through the air to convert the extra
point. CAL led 34-0 with 4:11 to go in the 3rd quarter.
The Trojans were again being pushed back by the determined CAL defense. Andrew Dupps ripped the pass
away from the Trojan receiver to give the ball back to the Centurions near mid-field. Ben Fields was able to
drag a couple of tacklers a few yards down the field to pick up 3 yards.
To start the 4th quarter, Carr broke free for another long touchdown run from near mid-field to complete the
scoring. Nate Ehrenborg demonstrated a servant’s heart in making sure the team was hydrated on a hot humid
day on the gridiron. The unsung heroes of the game were the boys in the trenches for CAL. The offensive
and defensive lines controlled the line of scrimmage all game long. CAL had 286 yards of offense. The Trojans were only able to muster 22 yards of offense against a very determined CAL defense.
Final score CAL 40, James T. Alton Trojans 0.

CAL ACORN TEAM KICKS OFF PRE-SEASON WITH CRIMSON CLASH TOURNEY
The CAL Acorn team with first year coach, Kyle Doezema, began
their pre-season with a tournament at Bellarmine in the Crimson
Clash Tourney hosted by Noe Middle School and Manual High
School. The team is led by returning 8th graders, Keeley Dickens,
Sophie Herbig, Meghan Neumann, and Lorelei Shafer. They are
hoping to 3-peat as state champions. This year they will need the
help of a strong core of 7th graders led by goalie Haley Kruse, defender Alexa James, mid-fielder Allie Wheeler, and forward Jenna
Doezema.
Coach Doezema used the pre-season tournament to work on different rotations and to get the team used to playing with each
other and to gain experience. In the tournament they tied a very
good Holy Spirit team 0-0. In their second game they held a
strong Holy Trinity team to 1-0 in the first half of the game before losing 5-0. In the third game they lost to a good Meyzeek
team 3-0. They concluded the tournament with a 2-0 loss to
Noe.
The team will open the season next week at home against Meyzeek on Monday August 22 at 5:00. Come out
and support our Centurions.

The CAL 6th grade Field Hockey team's season started off sending familiar ripples
in the local community at the annual Crimson Clash held at Bellarmine University.
With repeated heat index delays, the young ladies persevered and powered through
four matches defeating S. Oldham, Crosby, Noe, and Kammerer along the way to
make it to the semi-finals against Highlands Latin School. A convincing victory
earned the Centurions a spot in the finals against their common foe in Holy Trinity.
Goals were scored by more than a handful of
players while goalies Corinne Lonergan and Emily Hough kept opponent
scoring at bay. The team has a few new faces, but the core has stayed together heading into middle school.
The steamy Crimson Clash ended Saturday night with a runner-up finish,
but the remaining season will prove just how committed and determined
the players are to achieve success while glorifying our Lord's kingdom.

The CAL 1st/2nd football team opened their 2016 football season Saturday against the defending LYFL Mighty Mite
champions the St. Stephen's Bulldogs.
Although we experienced a loss to the Bulldogs, final score 39-6,
there were some highlights and plenty to build on for the season.
Quarterback Grant Collins handed off to TY Bindner which resulted in a 72 yard run by TY up the middle for a touchdown early in the 2nd quarter. The team had good blocking by Foster
McKinney, Parker Brandon, Mark Mauzy, Riley Baker, Will
Graham, Nathan Durston and Camden Carothers. The Centurions
had a couple other nice runs from Landon Kirtley and Nicholas Doster that yielded a few more first downs.
Defensively, our Centurions
stopped several long runs by
good tackles from Sam Bates,
Graham Greenwell and Jacob
Manning.
Every player had the opportunity to play and contribute
to the game.
The 1st/2nd Centurions next
game is August 20th at
10:00AM versus the Spencer County Stallions.
Come out and support our Mighty Mites and root them on to their first victory
of the season.
