[Music] Here Comes hgo slips out of a few  tackles and Peter H out for the [Applause] races sheds the first Defender sheds the second Defender bust it open jacksmith down  the right sideline and into the end zone remember remember the beginning of September  welcome to Varsity Sports Live the only 1our High School football show in the country South Dakota  North well I should say region I don't know about country I could say I could say region at least  with full confidence in the region we're g
oing big here we got some big highlights to show you  David Brown Jay standera Jody nor will join us from Fargo but uh we're probably going to be  saying the same thing week after week but man we had some amazing games tonight we did we had  some lows scoring games uh some big surprises at least rankings wise and uh I think we found out  a few contenders and then 11 AAA as usual nothing but surprises and close games well speaking of  11 AAA let's go right to the scoreboard here with 11 AAA tomor
row live right here on MidCoast  Sports you will see the number one team in Triple A the sou Falls Lincoln Patriots taking on Rapid  City Central in the Rushmore Bowl but I'm going to already dub the number two team the cardiac  Cavs this year second straight week sou Falls Jefferson wins in overtime 2417 over sou Falls  Washington they were 17 nothing in the fourth quarter 24 unanswer we're going to have highlights  but another amazing game for Jefferson yeah that was a lot of fun to watch and
you're right a  much different team than last year that blew through the schedule this year two overtime games  but 2 and0 cardiac Cavs 2-0 on the season Mor in Triple A o' Gorman is that a basketball score  that is that is not a basketball score it is not a ninan basketball score 77-20 o' Gorman over sou  Falls Roosevelt and uh we'll have an interesting stat on this game coming up a little bit later  and then tomorrow evening Harrisburg Brandon Valley one of those teams is going to be 0 and  tw
o Jandy yeah yeah look at it that way one of those teams is going to be 0 and two it's going  to be a great game though like literally this is one of those games that I really look forward to  all season long and moving on down the scoreboard another Rush more Bull game which will happen  tomorrow will be Douglas and Rapid City Stevens again you will see that game right here on Mid  Coast Sports moving to double a pier all over Brookings 49 nothing second straight shutout  for the gubs to start
the season and they got scoring from all over the field we had a camera  out there so we'll bring you some highlights of those more ablea scores from South Dakota T area  over aine Central 28 to7 they only led by seven at halftime but T seem to be picking things back  up after their close call against hereon last week Yankton in a game with Spearfish 4227 you and I  were just talking before the show Spearfish even with the loss might be a little bit better than  people think yeah I think Spearfi
sh has definitely improved and this year uh they really played well  with Yankton all the way into the second half so that score is a little misleading Spearfish pushed  yanked in for sure speaking of surprise teams in 11aa well surprises to most but not to you Jason  andere Watertown starts the season 2-0 big road win against a hon team that challenged T yeah  good for Watertown to come out on the road show what they can do against what looks like a pretty  quality team in 11aa right now in hon
and another win for them they get some big tests here in  the next couple weeks though sturis Brown 38 to6 over Mitchell they LED that game 24 nothing  at half time in 11a Del Rapids all over Belo 39 to13 a game you were at at sou Falls Christian  14-6 West Central big match up there yeah and that was 3 nothing at halftime that was really  close back to that Del Rapids game Jack Henry we talked about how much he hasn't had to pass he was  three for three in this game so on the season now 10 of
13 that's pretty efficient pretty efficient  only having to throw 13 passes through the first two games Jack Henry in the defending Champion  Dell Rapids quarriors in 11b winner 46-4 14 over Webster as we get a look at that scoreboard there  we go 4614 over Webster area and then another great top five matchup Sue Valley 20 to1 over El  Point Jefferson the defending state champions you thought Su valy was a sleeper heading into the  season yeah this is a team with some Firepower for them only to
have 20 points though says  something about Elk Point Jefferson's defense uh I can't wait to see highlights of this one  coming up soon absolutely remember that El Point Jefferson defense had something like five straight  shutouts to start the season last year Rapid City Christian St Thomas Moore kind of a slugfest  7 nothing the Cavs defeat the comments we like Rapid City Christian coming in they'll probably  bounce back from that then the big one the Battle of number ones a ninan 9 doublea Par
kson all over  9A Wy West in 54 nothing that statement time for Parkson they probably heard us talking about how  we voted for Hamlin and not for Parkson and came out with some power and wiie Wessington um you  know coming off of last week's big win you wonder if they maybe just did didn't have quite the same  hype and Readiness that they had going into week one 54 nothing in the final there afternoon game  down in Freeman 5218 the Phoenix over the Pirates we'll have highlights of that when you
were down  there Falton area the new number one in 9B takes care of business against Potter counting 52 to8  that one started out slow and fton really poured it on in the second half so 9B is definitely wide  open this year but so far fton area they look the most legit out of anyone and then desmith 32 to4  over Del Rapids St Mary so the number two team in 9B also taking care of business against Del Rapids  St Mary so those are your scores of importance in South Dakota but as you said we talked
about it  on football insiders this week in case you missed it but 11 AAA this year is just going to be Topsy  Turvy all season long it yeah you can tell that already and uh the one team that can for sure tell  that is the Jefferson Cavaliers Yes again we can start the hashtag the cardiac cabs let's get to  the highlights sou Falls Jefferson and Sue Falls Washington in the first Jefferson with the ball  Ethan Swinson intercepted by Washington's Nathan day the Warriors forced five Jefferson turno
vers  Jandy and three interceptions in that first half Ethan swensson the junior quarterback wasn't  looking confident but look at this the play after the confident quarterback Tommy Hoffman to Jace  Woods 97 yards to give the Warriors a 7 nothing lead what a statement from the Warriors Jefferson  with the ball back but Swenson again he's picked off this time it's Dante Smith and he's taking it  to the house yeah he's going to look back at that he's stared him down but a great play by Dante  Smi
th I think he had two picks in that game if I remember right he did 14- nothing Washington  at halftime third quarter Swenson a deep pass to Jordan Denard this is actually when at 17-  nothing in the fourth quarter because Washington added a field goal so it's 17 nothing Warriors  in the fourth Jefferson mounting The Comeback de with the score then down 1710 this is Dawson  Seer on Fourth and goal ties the game at 17 that looks a lot like last week it does so we go to  overtime inot Jefferson th
ey take the ball on offense first Ethan swensson fakes everyone out  runs to the left pylon 247 first lead of the game for Jefferson Washington has to score to keep the  game alive Hoffman Mason Wilson through his hands probably didn't have enough to get to the end zone  anyway and how about su falls Jefferson down seven in the fourth quarter comes back and defeats  Washington well this is a testament to you know getting down but not getting down on yourselves  they threw three interceptions tha
t first half they lost Evan H their leading receiver from last  year didn't play in the second half of this game and yet found a way to put 24 consecutive points  back up on a on an improved Washington Warrior team let's talk about that for a second these  Washington Warriors don't have a huge senior class they don't have a lot of returning starters  I mean just quite frankly not much was expected from them and they've played two good weeks in  a row they have played two good weeks in a row I kn
ow they won't take any moral victories out  of this but it will be a learning experience for Washington but again there'll be a team now to  keep an eye on they open some eyes despite the loss but again Jefferson after winning every game  last year by at least 17 points two straight in overtime to start the 2023 season the early game  at howardwoodfield featured number three o Gorman taking on sou Falls Roosevelt JY I asked this last  year why we show the opening kickoff of game it's either when
something good or bad happens uh yeah  it's it's good for o Gorman and Jay DC 79 yards yeah this is uh this is a great way to start the  game for o Gorman and there's a lot of scoring in this ball game it was actually a little bit  closer in this first half than the score showed but Ryland sadder catches this one out in the  flats turns it up field and again Roosevelt is playing without several players who are serving  that two game suspension 14- nothing o' Gorman on that sat touchdown next ni
ght's possession play  action look at that s armed by Sullivan schlimgen that guy's stuck he does the rest 51 yards to the  house it's 21 to nothing by the way we are still in the first quarter One play after a Roosevelt  turnover gruz all day to Henry Theobald 33 yards 28 nothing nights after one but as you said a bit  closer Roosevelt would chip away at the lead this three- yard run is the second straight rushing  TouchDown for Jackson Graven good cuts at the 2813 but that's as close as the Ro
ugh Riders get  that second quarter OG turns to the running game look at the spin by Maverick Jones o' Gorman up  4113 at halftime and then check out this final 7720 here's the amazing thing the knights got  a safety on the last play of the game and with that 77 is the most points in a single game in o'  Gorman history beating the 76 they scored against sou Falls Lincoln in 2018 so literally that safety  gave them the record on the last play of the game I'm pretty sure they weren't going for tha
t no  but it made it pretty special and uh how about the way they spread out those touchdowns those  first five touchdowns to Jones to Theobald to s s schiman the kick return that everything was  clicking for these kns and a solid solid win as they go two and0 now and they will face T area  next week at home while su falls Roosevelt will face an improved Washington Squad out in 11aa  Brookings and Pier Bobcats trying to bounce back from that shut out loss against Watertown  Pier looking to Conti
n it shutout streak that they had against Aberdine Central Brookings just  stung by turnovers in the first half Spencer eand with the pick here for the governors and it's the  pier defense kind of Making Waves early Jandy yeah this has been a lot of fun to see them take the  leadership easeland with two picks and there's another combination we're going to see plenty  of this year jet Z grabbing one Kate geyser to Jet Z seven nothing Pier gets it right back Trey  Lewis good Tough Run he's going t
o take it down to just around the one yard line linebacker last  year doing some running back kicking or returning punts for touchdowns I didn't mean to talk over  that I think it was moer touchdown moer gets the glory in the touchdown even though Lewis all  the hard yardage but this time again and there we go you see everyone gets a little piece of  the action there that's moer again 21 nothing rule the touchdown Brookings trying to stay in  this game they're moving it on third down great catch
by Bergen tesloff but turn around second  quarter pass is going to be batted in the air and intercepted Again by Spencer eand his second  pick of the game gb's going to roll right down the field and uh we talked about this little  combination between Kate Kaiser and Jet Z yeah it's it's going to happen again here 10 catches  last week for a couple touchdowns a couple more what three touchdowns for jet Z in this game  he's off to a very good start and Kate Kaiser too also off to a great start an
d that would be  pretty much it as far as scoring is concerned they would add a punt return they would add an  interception return later in the game it was 49 nothing at halftime and that would end up being  your final score 49 nothing Pier over Brookings yeah there Trey Lewis taking that that uh big  return back so what a day for him but uh 49 nothing yes this was kind of a rivalry over the  past two years uh not so much of a rivalry here but let's hear from one of the leaders on defense  Spenc
er eand and leaders on offense Kate Kaiser we took some time this week figured out who blocks  who really get that down and just keep working I guess and just line really did everything yeah  there's a lot of people that did really well tonight and too many to name honestly jet Trey  there's just a lot of guys Kade yeah tonight was just taking care of business and focusing on us  um I Heard a quote earlier this week and it said it's easier to work together than to work work  alone and that was f
rom the Tennessee Volunteers uh football program and that's just what a big  big uh focus of tonight was just staying together playing up at our level and not dropping down  and just pushing the ball having a lot of fun and working together and I think that's what  we did really well tonight and we took care of business and I'm really happy with the fellas  all around good football one of the questions I asked Steve steel is what can we expect from  Cade Kaiser is he a good leader and and steel
said yeah this guy is a great leader and I've  heard him talk after both weeks now in the post game on the radio and then our post game and you  can tell this guy is buttoned up ready to go he's got his team ready and everybody's following him  and this is a really bad news for the rest of 11 daa this year yeah a combined 81 nothing Pier  through the first two weeks with victories over aine Central and Brookings who were a couple of  top five teams in 11 dou coming into the season but Pier looki
ng every bit these six-time state  champions certainly reloading at keep positions and doing well on both offense and defense for the  governors out in the capital city more highlights coming up T and Aberdine Central Midway through  the second quarter Aberdine on its own two we saw a 97 yd play how about a 98 yd play Cooper Eisen  be extra point good that ties the game at seven got some long touchdowns in this region here Jandy  yeah this is one explosive play they didn't not have a ton of expl
osive plays in this game but  they were able to grind it out on the running play you see it once again Tyler Reed for a few  yards that leads to this next play from the 15 touchdown Dawson imers finding him in the back  right corner of the enzone 14-7 T area 28-7 is your final the Titans over the golden eagles and  Aberdine was not able to establish any kind of regularity on offense they had that one big play  to Eisen bayas but Lamar five of 14 as a team they ran for3 yards the T area Titans de
fense at their  trademark they stepped up and shut down the golden eagles to hopefully keep them at number two again  T kind of struggling a little bit to start the season found a little bit of Mojo in that second  half to take this one 28 to7 top three match up in 11a West Central visiting Sue Falls Christi  bit of a defensive battle in the first half you were out of Bob Young field but Bren witty with  a big run here this guy was the workor this is all super Christian did to start the game was
run  the ball and witty did a huge job of that but got him into the Red Zone just enough for a 38 what  39 yd field goal uh but that was all the scoring in the first half yeah three nothing chargers  at the break moving into the third quarter now West Central Kate Nelson check out this Tip Drill  by crew hire that's that's the future USD lineman defensive lineman maybe tight end uh but he  got him into scoring position and the first touchdown of the game Kaden alsson on the keeper  Trojans up s
ix to three after the two-pointer is no good fourth quarter now chargers they had a  lot of opportunities inside the five but they have to take the points another field goal coming  up here by doctor and we are tied at six about 10 minutes to go and that kick was into the win  that was not an easy kick but it they did they tied it up and this is the biggest play of the  game right here as West Central finally got one to break through Jesse Jon running it in for the  score conversion good this ti
me Trojans up 14-6 final chance for the Chargers fourth and eight  with under a minute to go it is incomplete and West Central will escape with a hard fought  14-6 victory that was a fun game and you're right defense played a huge role in this game  for both of these teams but West Central with a little bit more defense and after the game I  caught up with crew hire one of their leaders on defense we struggled obviously throughout the game  but obviously we come back uh yeah I I don't even know
what to say it was a hard fought game Jesse  yo shout out to him he had a great run that was awesome that's what turned the game for us it was  awesome it's our defense is the heart and soul of our team it's awesome Chad s he's a dog at middle  linebacker we just got so many so much potential on this defense and young guys and you heard it  from him himself the defense obviously making the big difference in this game they got that one  big offensive play in the fourth quarter and West Central th
ey may have to win some ugly games like  this yeah I'll tell you what uh their quarterback Kaden Alon the junior just getting his feet under  him they're not throwing the ball a ton they're going to run it sou Falls Christen the same thing  they're out a few players and they felt more comfortable running I think they started the game  with 10 straight runs and in the second half they went back to the Run um they're going to have to  find a way to make some plays in the passing game both of these
two teams I think if they're going  to advance deep into the playoffs but very solid defensive performance performances on both sides  of the ball and a tough start just for sou Falls Christian a couple of top five matchups they're  0 and2 but we know the Chargers are going to be a factor down the stretch similar to last year  though and they bounced back quite well so they know the formula at least West Central with a 14-6  victory over uh sou Falls Christian Sue Valley and Elk Point Jefferson
this is a top three matchup in  11b and it was a bit of a struggle in that first half for both sides Elco Jefferson had a bit of a  lead but uh bod Schiller was doing everything for Sue valy yeah B Schiller is one of these freak  athletes and they couldn't wait to unleash him at quarterback this year and he's uh showing off  why he is such an important part of this offense suy LED this one 7 to3 at halftime Elk Point  Jefferson they tried to make a little bit of a comeback Luke Schmidt is going
to score for Elco  Jefferson coming up here and the huskys doing what Champions do and it's a tough road environment  down in vulga South Dakota playing against SU Valle nice long run here staying in bounds getting  the score but it would be suy eventually taking care of business again El Point Jefferson doing  its best on the road but that defense stood strong for the cacs and Schiller once again just doing  it all for Su valy yeah and Bowen Shiller played a little bit of running back last yea
r he's been  a receiver before and they didn't really announce to anybody that he was going to be the starting  quarterback this year until the first game of the year and boy he has done a great job giving  them a couple of different threats Donovan Rose another guy who gives them a little different  flavor running the ball but a big day for both of brat Christian Christopherson who got a rushing  touchdown and Bowden Schiller who had a big night for the kexs and we caught up with the kexs  afte
r the game yeah it was a great job by the line I mean all night those guys were battling up  front obviously they never get enough credit but if you watch film those guys are dogs they're just  battling out there and you can see that the magic or whatever you want to call it for Su Valley is  working so far this year the cacs are 3 and0 and again when we were talking with Dan Hughes before  the season we figured that this team might make a difference in 11b where we saw a firsttime  champion las
t year in Elk Point Jefferson don't appoint winner just yet Su valy can certainly  make a run yeah there's definitely not much of a gap there between these top teams and they  want to prove they belong and they've had good teams before but those years that Su Valas had  really good teams you know winter or Bridgewater emry Ethan has been that much better this year I  think the field is all really mixed up and these cacs if they can continue to do what they have  done with Donovan Rose and Bowden
Chiller they're going to be really tough to beat yeah a very good  victory tonight for Su valy 20 to1 over Elk Point Jefferson more highlights Rapid City Christian  and St Thomas Moore you saw the score a little bit earlier kind of a bit of a slugfest start of  the second quarter rapid Christian trying to punt the ball away but the high snap and they're taken  down inside their own Red Zone and then a couple plays later St Thomas Moore would take advantage  eye formation Chase Donnelly into the
End Zone St Thomas Moore is up 7 nothing late in the second  quarter Rapid City Christian is on the Move Simon kefir to Wes schlabach here eventually over the  middle some nice moves by kefir there in the back field There He Go eventually finds him Cuts  back toward the middle and they're going to get inside but unfortunately Spencer Johansson forces  the fumble at the 5 yd line and St Thomas Moore takes over that was as close as the comets would  get in a 7 nothing slugfest as I mentioned Rapi
d City Christian is improved and St Thomas More  trying to bounce back from their loss last week did some nice things on defense and just enough  on offense this was a potential moment where you would swing the pendulum from St Thomas Moore  who's been one of the best teams out in Rapid City especially in in 11b over the past decade  or so that the pendulum started to swing toward Rapid City Christian but St Thomas Moore said  not so fast and they played a great defensive game against a very tal
ented quarterback and held  the comet scoreless huge defensive performance by the Cavs tonight 7even nothing St Thomas mo over  Rapid City Christian couple of number ones we mentioned squaring off in nin man nine doublea's  top team Parkson 9 A's top team wiy Weston first quarter War Bird's driving it's a QB keeper  pop loose cter Kramer picks it up for Baron and he is gone 71 yd fumble recovery for a score  yeah this is uh there's a lot of seniors on this Parkson team and they made it to the Do
me with  a huge junior class these guys are cashing in this year and they looked so much better than the  opposition on this night Kramer did it on defense there he does it on offense 14 Ean Parkson still  in the first guess who this Kramer does not need his intern Daren krer Industries in full force  his third touchdown of the first quarter 84 yards on that run Parkson in an absolute Route 54 to  nothing over Wy Westington is your final it's a solid team effort for the Parkson Trojans too  ther
e are a lot of different guys they can give it to Kramer just happened to be the recipient  tonight there you see Parkson moves to three and0 Wy westton Falls 22 and one it was a hot one in  the middle of afternoon Avon at Freeman Mar and Freeman Academy after the Phoenix stopped Avon on  Fourth and goal Riley shed a rips off this 84 yd touchdown run to put the Phoenix up 6 nothing  huge momentum shift right away early in the game and the Phoenix did not need much time to  get back down the fiel
d and do it again shedar going up top EV sharber coming on down home  team now up 12 to nothing he throws a really nice ball and you're going to see it right here  on this throw in stride to Rocky Amon yeah Rocky Ammon one of the few seniors on this team I think  just five seniors on this Phoenix team but he was a huge part of their success today but they're  spreading it around look at the defense making a huge play on the stripped fumble in the end zone  for another defensive touchdown Luke Pe
ters with the fumble recovery and the score Pirates trying  to salvage the ship Isaiah Meyer big junr gets his second touchdown of the first half that cuts  it to 2412 but just before halftime the Phoenix would extend the lead and once again it is Mr  Riley shedar to Mr Evan shurg for another score another nice pass right there they have got one  of the best passing attacks in 9aa I don't know if they have the depth or of the defense to make  a run in 9aa when it comes to playoff time but they a
re going to be one of the most fun teams to  watch this year that is for sure Phoenix move to 3-0 the Pirates fall to 2-1 again Freeman Mary  and Freeman Academy in 9aa Avon in 9B lots of fun action in South Dakota but when we come back  we move up north to North Dakota highlights with our man Jody norstead plenty of action going on in  Fargo and otherwise we're back on Varsity Sports Live after this Varsity Sports Live presented  by Farmers Union Insurance simply different Varsity Sports Live p

their their helmet design and then uh South Bard are just sending their helmet in in time  to get it on tonight and we'll have highlights of their big win over Grant County flasher in  a bit but let's start with shamley against West Fargo the Deacons ranked number one in the state  the defending state champs going to West Fargo and boy tough one for the pack Keaton McGregor  coming off that record setting performance last week against Sentry but he tweaked something  in warm-ups left after just
a few plays and they missed him Brady Medina on the slant but he  hits the wrong team Jordan linger with the pick six it's 14 zip early deacons driving again they  get into the Red Zone Kaden Chrisman they blown up on the one and he fumbles Packers recover for  the turnover One play later West Fargo standing in its own End Zone and they forget to block the  defensive tackles shanley's dline eats him up for the safety 16-0 deacons punt Shanley ball and  the onslaught continues Landon Meyer fires
to Sam EK and he speeds toward the pylon to make  it 23 zip Meyer well he has more options than a McDonald's menu he hits Jordan linger over the  middle that's six more and it's 290 early in the second the offense runs like fast food too I'm  not sure they use more than 10 seconds on the play clock the entire first half EK stretches his  way in it's 360 before you could blink West Fargo breaks up the shout out on the next Drive Brady  Medina targets the big tight Antony Le check out this juggli
ng catch as he's being interfered with  by the way highlight re touchdown gets the pack on the board but it was deakon domination Meyer  drops this one in a bucket to Jake craft it's going to be a 40 yd score wa Shanley runs away  with the this one up 50-6 at halftime in the top ranked deacons roll to the 57-4 win right now I'm  telling you deacons if they continue to play like that they look Unstoppable they will play Fargo  South South coming up from that two-way spot to play the deacons comin
g up next week and West  Fargo Legacy will have that one on Mid Coast Sports a season ago Davies open a lot of eyes when  Eagles dismantled Cheyenne snapping the Mustangs 20 game regular season win streak good start here  they forced a turnover much like they were doing all last week they were getting sacks and all  sorts of stuff last week and Zach Lily is going to capitalize on it plenty of daylight 70 yards  see you later lily pad to the end zone Davies grabs an early 7 to zero lead Mustangs
trying  to respond they get a big play of their own Caleb deer floats this one down the sidelines Noah  Olsen had a touchdown catch last week gets another here we're tied up at Sevens at Mustang Stadium  Cheyenne puts up 41 points in last week's open over Legacy tonight much tougher contest they had  to grind this one out they beat Davies 21-4 that loss will prove to probably be pretty costly for  Davies when it comes down the stretch well last year Mandan snapped an eight-game losing streak to 
the Patriots Braves struggled to score last week at Davies sentur scored 46 last week a total they  didn't reach until game five last year oie Taylor here getting the big sack on Hudson Sheldon Braves  pinned back and Tristan olmer going to have to eat this one on the punt attempt gives the Patriots  a couple of points next possession for man and Sheldon rolls near side this is Hudson Sheldon  finds Mr Elmer boy maybe some Elmer's Glue on his gloves makes a catch 60 yards for the score Braves 
Tak an 8-2 lead after the two-pointer second quarter manam pting from their own End Zone Almer  in trouble again this time he escapes still ends up a turnover on down so the Patriots get the ball  at to seven Michael twardowski fresh off that four touchdown performance a week ago and we have a 98  game that doesn't happen often things like this don't happen often either low snap Sheldon gathers  throws an absolute Dart to Trinity Anderson nice toe Tapper touchdown on the Braves retake the  lead
Mandan wins a nailbiter tonight 26-23 so that score Davy Cheyenne all really close games  Sentry gets Cheyenne next week well I've been bullish on mine out this year ranking them third  in the state in the preseason they took it to St Mary's in the opener hosting Legacy tonight  in the Magic City and they did it again Magi received the opening kickoff Lucas Peter first  year is starting QB and all you got to do is hand it out to this guy Tyson ruisa 50 yards to  the end zone Min not leads it 7 t

e's into the end zone 126 Maple River next possession Tyler brand keeps it  at the one ties things back up after both teams missed the Pats 1212 still in the second T Silling  another one of those playmaking weapons for Maple River runs it on the option pitches to Bosch who  scampers up the sideline 65 yards to the house this kid is a world class Sprinter okay a state  class Sprinter at this point but he is super fast Maple River up 20 to 12 but now 30 seconds left in  the half brand throwing a
beautiful ball to Levi kacman who scores with 16 seconds left in the  half and that ended up propelling wein a little bit they trailed 20 to 18 at the break but the  warbirds with a 47-2 win up to 3 and0 they play at Hinson next week so plenty of interesting  things happening across the state shout out to langon Edmore Munich that is a huge win that they  got tonight over boto and how about those horse Hawks uh getting that big victory uh their first  as a program guys all right thank you Jody c
oming up next we'll talk about a little Zone coverage  biggest stories in North and South Dakota when we return Varsity Sports Live presented  by Farmers Union Insurance simply different welcome back here on Bar City Sports  Live lots of uh lopsided games and lots of close games we have some reaction from some of  those lob sided wins but the Fargo South game against Central this is a a completely different  Central team than maybe the last couple years Jake shower's really getting things turned
around  it was a 70 South lead at the half and then they really adjusted some things turned up the  notch de Marian sanco was run the wild had four rushing touchdowns tonight so shout out to him  obviously a a guy that will be on the game ball top performers list uh this week as a contender  there but Tyler Kell the head coach I mean they go on to win this thing 34 to Z up to 2-0 they're  ranked third in the latest class doublea poll uh this Bruins team starting to look pretty good and  startin
g to prove some things out there we didn't start as well as we' like to I mean 4:00 a little  different we had to do things a lot differently as a team um but our guys settled in the second half  played well with that but I wish we would have started a little bit quicker but we're just happy  to get here with a win oh it's big I mean we talk about going one one and0 each week we accomplished  our goal we got to move on enjoy this one for the time being but we got a very good team coming  into Fa
ro South next week with Fargo Shanley so uh that's we'll enjoy this now but switch our  Focus well Tyler makes that point about the slow start obviously a four o00 game just a little bit  different but you cannot afford a slow start next week as you mentioned very good Shanley team  coming in that just put up 56 points tonight on West Fargo and I'm telling you they barely waste  any time off the play clock it is boom boom boom uh this deacons team is humming along right now  and that is the matc
hup we have to look forward to next week a couple of undefeated teams Troy m  going back to the school that he has led to state championships before at Fargo South and uh the  guy that replaced him Tyler K leading that Brewing Squad so that should be an interesting matchup  down in the ninan ranks Linton hmb one of those teams dropping from class A down to ninan the last  time they were in ninan they were hoisting the hardware State Champs inside the Fargo doome and  now they're back in that div
ision feeling pretty confident they have a lot of Playmakers on offense  but for me right now it's the defense a shut out tonight against Napoleon gal Street or team with  a lot of Playmakers in week one they allowed 12 points week two they allowed six points tonight a  shut out they just keep getting better and better and better on that side of the ball Curtis walls  the head coach of the Lions weighs in and those guys are playing together they're hustling around  we have a good mixture of size
and speed and uh watching our defense play sound defense is is  just awesome to see um we take pride in it uh we know that you know of course we want to score  points but we know the least the the less we let them score then the better chances that we have  so it's uh matching up our players as well as we can and uh just being aggressive and physical  so congrats to those lions and another tough one against a Grant County flasher team that has had  plenty of success over the last few years uh t
hat should be a fun one coming up next week but uh  guys it entertaining night and next week we get back to being a live game here in North Dakota  West Fargo hosting bismar Legacy a legacy team that's hungry for a win in West Fargo you know  they're going to want uh to get back on track here a great outing last week didn't result in  a win against Sentry uh and now at an 0 and2 record Legacy 0 and2 someone's going to get that  first win we're going to have it for you live on MidCoast Sports nex
t week couple of hunger teams  should be a fun one thank you so much Jody you bet absolutely so we had Zone coverage up in  North Dakota let's talk about here in South Dakota uh Pier two back-to-back shutouts to start  the season 32 nothing over to Aberdine Central 49 nothing tonight over Brookings yeah and we had a  camera out there and Steve steel who's won six in a row and tries to keep it as lowkey as possible  talked with us after the game we just knew we had to come out and execute and um
you know be a week  better I thought we were not quite as sharp as we wanted to last week offensively and especially  on special teams uh and you know this was a full phase win we had a great special teams effort  tonight um offense looked a week better and and defense was Stout again so really really fun game  this group they they're really self-driven this is a fun group of kids um they they expect to be  great um they want to be great and they work hard to be great so I mean it's just been a
lot of  fun to coach these kids and and just to see the desire more than anything else I suppose when  you're 2- 0 you have to find some some little things to nitpick but he but as he said it's it's  a very fun group to coach that's what I wanted to talk about is you know this group has learned  how to win obviously through their senior and he talks about these seniors being more prepared  than any class of seniors he's ever had so yeah they're in good shape 81 nothing through two games  Pier is
two and0 and looking every bit as I said like the six-time defending state champions uh  the other big game tonight in the lower 11 man ranks how about Sue Valley over over Elk Point  Jefferson we had discussed it during the break this is a sou Valley team that lost to epj 50  to nothing last season and they come back and they beat him tonight 20 to 11 well that one  really hurt them last year of all the losses Su Val had that one was the one that the players  talked to me about over the offsea
son they were really glad to get this monkey off their back and  head coach Dan Hughes led the cacs to a big win tonight El Point's got a great team they're very  well coached tip of the cap to Jake Terry and Jake Atkin they're great coaches and they have a good  team and and uh you know we came out on top in this one so I'd say it' probably help our momentum  you know we're we're focused on just improving day by day so uh you know we'll learn we'll watch the  film we'll learn from it we'll keep
improving so in steady Improvement you've seen it over the  course of the first couple games already yeah in 268 yards rushing tonight against a really good  team that's promising and then 148 of those yards to Bowden Schiller big night for him they didn't  even have to use Donovan rose that much huge win for these CICS as they move forward 20 to11 over  elkb Jefferson when we come back we'll wrap it all up put a bow on this Friday preview a couple games  on Saturday when we return to Varsity S
