Patriots win round one

By Rebecca Maupin Opening round of the playoffs took place under the bright lights at Croell Field in Sundance on Friday as the Patriots hosted the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies. While the Patriots took the opening kickoff inside the 20, with a quick first down on the first play, they weren't able to get much going and punted the ball away. As Rocky Mountain gained control, Kye Taylor broke up their drive with an interception on the 35-yard line, setting the Patriots up in good position. Shortly thereafter, Louderback had his pass tipped and intercepted by the Grizzly defense, forcing the Patriot defense to hold strong and allowing the Patriots to take back over at midfield. With a 30-yard pass from Louderback, Jess Claycomb was able to tip-toe 20 more yards down the sideline for the first touchdown of the night. An extra point from Jerrett Schloredt put the score is 7-0, Patriots with 5:26 to go in the first. The Grizzlies saw a need to talk strategy as they called a timeout with 3:53 left in the first, but it was to no avail as a big sack by Nolan Turner pinned the Grizzlies deep and forced them to punt it away. The Patriots took over at the 45-yard line and Tanner Ho-

Hofland named to Super 25

fland took a pitch right for 30 yards.

Louderback then options left for 10 yards and on the next play took the ball up the middle for a touchdown. The Patriots tried for a 2-point conversion but were unsuccessful, making the score 13-0 with 1:16 left to go in the first quarter.

The second quarter started with a pass interference call on the Patriots, giving the Grizzlies life, but not enough and they punted the ball away again. As the Patriots gained control, Jaydon Caylor was able to run the ball to midfield.

On the very next play, Caylor ran the ball again, for 53 yards and a touchdown. Schloredt added another extra point and the Patriots were on top 20-0 with 9:54 left in the second.

While the Grizzlies had a good starting position at the 35-yard line, back-to-back sacks by the Patriot defense pushed them to a third and 30. With this, the Grizzlies needed another timeout to figure out how to gain some yardage.

Whatever was discussed in the timeout was not implemented on the field as the next play resulted in another sack. Sitting at the 1-yard line on a fourth and 45, the Patriots were able to get a safety on the Grizzly punt and push

the score up to 22-0 with 7:47 left to go in the half.

Patriots took the free kick and returned it to midfield and Tanner Hofland took it in on the next play, putting six more up on the board. The offensive onslaught continued as Louderback hit Caylor for 52 yards and Tanner Hofland then walked into the end zone for his second touchdown of the game.

With another extra point, the score was now 36-0 with 5:11 left to go. As the half ticked down, Kye Taylor had his second interception on the night and this time was able to return it 40 yards for a touchdown and the score was 42-0 with 1:40 left in the half.

After a timeout by the Grizzlies, Claycomb intercepted the ball on the next play and returned it to the 25 yard line putting the Patriots in scoring territory again. On a big run fake by Louderback, Hofland took the counter play into the end zone from 26 yards out. Schloredt added another extra point to the board and the score was 49-0 as the half finally came to a close for the Grizzlies.

The second half started with a running clock and the Grizzlies still fighting for yardage. The Patriots were able to find the end zone one last time before the final buzzer rang with a scoop and score from Josiah Rudloff off of a bad Grizzly snap, making the final score 56-0.

The Patriots will play round two against the number one seed from the west, Cokeville Panthers at 1 p.m. in Cokeville.

SHS's senior running back, Tanner Hofland, was named this week to the Super 25 team by the Casper Star Tribune. The selection honors the top football players in the state each year. Players are selected based on their statistics, play observations and input from coaches around the state.

Players selected will be honored at a banquet in Casper on November 17.
