A game:
BV 9, O'Gorman Knights 25
(Brandon, SD)-- The Sioux Falls League opener for BV did not go as planned as the O'Gorman Knights marched into Brandon and defeated the A team 25-9. The Lynx started the game fast, with a touchdown run of 73 yards by Cam Holmes on the first play of the game. After another three and out for O'Gorman, Holmes took the ball and raced another 50 yards, getting the ball down inside the 10 yard line. After a pass completion and short run, O'Gorman stuffed the Lynx on third and goal, forcing a field goal attempt. Devan West booted the ball through the uprights to give the Lynx a 9-0 lead and all the momentum. From this point on, the Lynx offense would become stagnant and the O'Gorman offense began to pick up steam. O'Gorman's first touchdown come at the end of a 13 play, 75 yard drive. Their second score, this one to take the lead, came in the second quarter and was another grind it out, pound the ball up the field with their traditional wing T offense and misdirection plays. The third quarter went by relatively quickly, with no scoring done by either team. Despite the lack of offense shown by the Lynx, they had a chance in the fourth quarter. With ten minutes to play, down by 8 points, Devan west intercepted a pass. The offense drove the ball, but stalled again, coming up with no points. The defense held and the Lynx found themselves with yet another chance to put together a game-tying drive. The drive started out smoothly, but on a 3rd down and 3 play, an O'Gorman defender stepped in front of the pass and picked it off, racing 55 yards for a touchdown. "It was a tough loss, no doubt about it," said Klumper, "I told the kids that it should hurt, it should sting because that shows it means something. It means something to us. We want to win these games." The Lynx will hit the road next week for their first away game of their, traveling to Sioux Falls to face Memorial Middle school on Thursday, Oct. 1st.
B game:
BV 19, O'Gorman Knights 6
(Brandon, SD)-- After the tough loss in the A game, the Lynx were looking to set things right in the B Game. Like the A team, the B team started strong, scoring a touchdown on the first posession. Behind the hard running of Antony Pacheco and Cain Scott and the blocking of all involved the Lynx pounded the ball down the field as O'Gorman could do nothing to stop them. Unlike the A team, the B team kept up the fine playing all game, defeating O'Gorman 19-6. "We were in control the whole game," said Klumper, "no doubt about it. O'G had no answer for our rushing attack." Antony Pacheco started the scoring out with a great touchdown run, then later in the second half, found the endzone again with a 34 yard scamper. "Antony ran the ball very hard. All of my running backs ran hard and the line blocked great. Total team effort on offense," said Klumper. Defensively, it was clear the Lynx wanted it more as they were constantly busting through the offensive line, making their misdirection very difficult. It appeared as if the Lynx were going to come away with a one touchdown lead when Cole Julius intercepted a pass and ran it back for a touchdown, giving the Lynx a two touchdown victory. Also for the Lynx, Cain Scott continued to rack up the rushing yards, compiling 132 yards and 223 yards passing. The Lynx will try to remain unbeaten in the Sioux Falls league next thursday as they face the Memorial Middle School Mustangs in Sioux Falls on Oct. 1st.
