Back Mountain 24
Forty Fort 0
The Back Mountain Bobcats B team
ended its season with a win by defeat-
ing the Forty Fort Flyers, 24-0.
The first touchdown was scored by
PJ Konnick on a nice run around the
end, followed by a 2-point conversion
by Justus Shultz. The second touch-
down was scored by Corbin Holcomb
on a run up the middle and the 2-point
conversion by Jesse Goode was suc-
cessful.
After a defensive stand by Jeff Straz-
dus, Justus Shultz, Steven Darling,
Zach Haddle, Nate Cooper, Bob Oak-
ley, Paul Ciaccia and Adam Rosen-
crance, the Bobcats got the ball back
and scored another touchdown on a
long 76-yard run by Jesse Goode, fol-
lowed by a 2-point conversion by AJ
Sweppenheiser.
The success of the day was helped by
great offensive line blocking from Matt
Durling, Brian Devine, Dan Sweeny,
Matt Karuza, Morgan Salter, Matt Va-
cante, Devin Dickson and Jacob Corey.
B TEAM
Kingston Township 30
Exeter 6
The Raiders claimed sole possession
of second place in the WWWYFCC with
an impressive 30-6 victory at Exeter
this past Sunday behind the tough run-
ning of Omar Nijmeh, Michael Olengin-
ski and Corey Patrick. Nijmeh, Ole-
nginski, and Patrick each scored touch-
downs for the Raiders during a very
physical battle with the Panthers.
Bret Storrs, Aaron Kliamovich, Mi-
chael Golden and Jason Anderson com-
bined to sack the Exeter quarterback
five times, keeping their offense at bay.
The Raiders ground game managed
to grind out over 250 yards of run of-
fense behind an offensive line of Con-
nor Motley, David Edwards, Jason Mor-
over Forty Fort
gan and Tanner Gattuso. Key defensive
plays by starting safety, Peter Capitano,
Kyle Piskorik, and Ryan Boedecker sty-
mied Exeter’s offense.
C TEAM
Forty Fort 34
Back Mountain 28
The Back Mountain Bobcats put up a
good fight and came within a touch-
down of victory but found defeat at the
hands of the Forty Fort Flyers, 34-28.
On the first drive, the Flyers ran in for
a touchdown and two points to go
ahead early, 8-0.
The Bobcats took possession at the
start of the second half and got great of-
fensive blocking from Erik Sweppen-
heiser, Anthony Grandinetti, Ian Evans,
Bradley Adams, Zachary Bloom and
Joe Ciaccia, paving the way for carries
by Stone Mannello and RJ Driscoll.
After the Flyers turned the ball over
on downs, Bobcat carries were made by
Stone Mannello, Nick Whitesell and
Nate O'Donnell before Cameran Bren-
nan ran up the middle for a Bobcat
touchdown. The Flyers fumbled the
ball on the kickoff and the Bobcats took
possession. On the very next play,
Stone Mannello ran to the outside and
into the endzone for another Bobcat
touchdown and Nate O'Donnell added
the two points.
