so so how many kids are sign up for the traditionally right now it the numbers that varied I have the numbers right now for what we had but we were looking to purchase I believe it was 34 books right in general we're gonna have anywhere between 15 to 20 kids on average usually 15 kids that end up taking AP Physics is where we're looking so we have that cushion so we can use it but as we expanded physics two and have two sections you can run it concurrently we're not worrying about running around handing books back and forth ap physics has we've seen some not-so-great results quite honestly and you know I've had conversations with the former science department chair as well as a few of the teachers in the department it's hard to really pinpoint what that might be I'm not gonna say it's because the curriculum works because the textbook I can't say that this is gonna be a cure-all to improve those scores but certainly the alignment and the resources that we now have will better structure the learning experiences for kids so that you know we're hoping to see that and I'll be talking later on in September when I come back we share on our plans for goals and things like that we'll talk specifically I'll talk about AP courses I pull over all to share with the board some of the things that I've shared it them last year and some of the things we're looking to improve to continue on this year [Music] I'm the science and math bag I will go through that book whoa I love the weighing the fish in the elevator that's what I turn to the first time bungee jumping married ecology the physics of bungee jumping any questions okay all in favor aye aye opposed thank you very much for the yeah look sensational hey so now we have the VHS last program presentation recommended action that the board to receive our presentation on the proposed VHS blast program as recommended by the Cape subcommittee fancy seeing you here [Music] thank you dr.

Pro I have to die also to comment on these microphones these are amazing now I can hear you you can hear me I mean there really is an upgrade it's it's quite amazing I can tell I know when it's on I don't have to push the button repeatedly so I really do appreciate that um you know thank you to the board for allowing me to come over tonight and talk a little bit about some conversations that I've been having with mister Stane George who's here tonight will also come up and talk a little bit more about one of our proposals to restructure the marching band program at the high school I want to take a few minutes we created some slides that we'll walk through to really kind of put people on the same page we understand a little bit of historical perspective what we're looking to do here why we're doing it and where we see this going down the line because there are certainly some flexible options moving down the line so again as you can saw as you saw on the motion it's looking to revise the marching band program for an outdoor competition model which is the classic model that were this rehearsals twice a week on Tuesday and Tuesdays and Thursdays after school and evenings and a competition on Saturday to an indoor blast model which I'll describe as we go through what we go through this but it is important to talk a little bit about history right and so band programs in different high schools which are extracurricular programs are really judged by class you know class for being a bit program and that's where we're in the mid-90s you know we you can see as you look at these numbers class two by 2004 class 1 by 2010 so our numbers were certainly dwindling in the program still competing well though if you look at this you know when you go to different classes you know you're competing in schools programs of your same size you're not competing against and I used to work at New Milford the New Milford size programs that Trumbull size programs those are large marching band programs really dominated the circuit for the large size programs but you can see we've won championships in 98 2005 2006 2008 and mr.

st. George actually won one my first fall here in 2015 I was a class 1 right class 1 championship in 2015 so we've seen some success certainly in our marching band program but the challenge has been the numbers continued to drop we've seen that over time and so I just have you know four years of data in 2014 there was 28 students 2015 we went down to 24 then down to 20 and down to 16 this is discussion when I started that Steve and I had multiple discussions about what we can do recruitment efforts how do we get more students into the marching band what can we do and whether its recruitment efforts down the middle school he's visiting elementary schools he's trying to talk up in fact I believe two years ago so would be for this the class of 2020 one who was just freshman when they were in eighth grade he went down talked to them I remember this we had this discussion and he's got these kids jazzed up and excited and I think we had one student that came the marching band program 50 people there in the hall so they were gonna do it zero and zero then came so what working you know so we're working against is you know we start taking a look at okay what is the cause what's the root cause what's going on wire why are students not wanting to necessarily participate in the marching band program you know what we don't want to see is where it got to you know 2017 with 16 students we're concerned about the trend going down so we want to take some take a couple steps and take a look at one of their options is there anything else we can do and what's really causing it you know and participation for marching band and programs I've been part of or seen and see who has worked as part of them seen sometimes it's a mandatory expectation if you're in the band in school then you're also in the marching band after school I've seen those programs when I was at Watertown fail because kids did not want participate after school so it diminish the numbers of band in the class during the school day which is something I can say is not a concern for mr.

st. George because his numbers in band during the school day continue to climb those numbers came to go up and then we also had voluntary which is where we are now a voluntary marching band program so 2017 fall season we are over four thousand $1 for costs right things like you know travel you know we have to rent a budget rental truck to transport musics and instruments this is not including stipends that we pay stipend positions for people to work but those were the general costs additional cost with music and competition fees and things of that nature we were getting up close to planning about six thousand dollars is what we thought we might spend for the marching band when you have low participation when you only have 17 students to participate and you choreograph a show I think the best way that Steve describes it to me is imagine you know if you've ever been to a band competition and see these large programs like Trumbull and your Milford and you see you know ninety kids out on the field and you have one student that makes a mistake as they walk by it's not that easy to see when you have 17 kids and four kids missed that particular week or you have to rewrite it's a really obvious mistake and it becomes a challenge to choreograph around those things to plan shows and to write shows which which people have worked really hard to do for those numbers so when your numbers are that small it becomes a challenge if there's any attendance issues and it's a big commitment we're asking kids to do it on Tuesdays and Thursdays and then also on Saturday mornings for the entire fall so relying on volunteers becomes a challenge you know like Steve talked about the larger crew during events we just didn't have a new enough new members continue to commit to being a part of the program and so the way Steven I feel is that without intervention the lower trends this program would start to continue to go away we're looking at we could look at lower numbers and then something we don't want to happen and that's why Steve came to me he doesn't want this program to go away we talked about doing what else could we do could we try a fresh start could we try something different and that's where we came to this proposed model of blast I'm gonna turn this over to Steve to talk a little bit about blast because he's the one who seen it more in person and we have a video we'll show you so you can see what it looks like again I'm Steve st.

George I'm the band director here at the high school again thank you so much for taking the time to hear us out tonight so the proposed model is a show called blast which is it's a nationally syndicated that's that's a trademarked name so we're not going to call ours that but it's it's done on stage as a sort of like a musical so if you go to like a high school musical production you'll see things that are choreographed with singing dancing that sort of thing with blast show they do that with musical instruments they do it with vocalization they do it with colorguard manipulatives that they you know toss around they do with dance maneuvers it's is wildly popular it's it came out of the drum corps international circuit which was 16 to 22 year olds who do marching on the field and this is the they would audition for the blast show in the offseason so that they would keep their skills up the important thing to note about this is that the only thing we're really looking to change by adopting a model like this is the presentation of the final product where we would be presenting it in auditorium using our lighting system which is of course state-of-the-art and brand-new and our sound system in there to kind of augment what we have on the stage and the delivery of the instruction and the instruction that's delivered would be the same so they're still going to use those same great marching techniques they're still going to get that you know that set of disciplined structured activity where we're going to be moving in specific format it's not a free-for-all out there so I visited a friend of mine is the director at Amity High School and he went in a similar direction because when he arrived there I believe it was 2004 that he arrived there he had a very strong marching band background and Amity did not have a marching band program and for his first year he just did everything that they would normally do in the second year he said we should really have a marching band program it will you know enhance the productivity of our students and will also create a nice thing for the community and he decided that they would you know Institute that the following year they went through all the proposals everything was good and he found that he had a 50% drop in the number of participating students just in that first year and looking at his numbers for the following year it was projected to to drop even further and so they were fortunate that they were in a position where they said okay we're just we're gonna walk away from that morning switch to this blast model so they actually instituted that at their high school when he arrived there I believe the numbers he gave me where he had 120 at first and so that second year when he had that 50% reduction they were down to 60 which is still a sizable force but not enough when you're looking at where he came from within six years the program turned back around they now have over 250 kids who are involved with this blast production and if they have to actually turn people away who come unprepared for things some of the things that we're looking at based upon their model is that all students will be required to perform but only within the large group numbers so even if the kid who doesn't want to be at those after school extra instructional things they will get that instruction during the day and format they're comfortable with so that we have large group performances for at least four or five cohesive numbers where they'll kind of go through and tell a story from beginning to end of the show but students can this is where it becomes really great for for a program like ours they can arrange their own portions of this for smaller group settings we have things like the chamber strengths group who's been here to perform in the past we have things like flute choir who's been to performance past the Jazz Ensemble all of these very very smaller groups which if you put them out on a football field it would not generate enough sound to be effective but within an auditorium it's the sky's the limit because you can amplify them and the the sound is you know purposely shaped so they are they are able to take on more of a leadership role earlier students can attend will attend the the night rehearsals for four pieces that they are involved in so if a student wants more instruction they can come for more instruction if they if they are comfortable with where they're at that's fine as well and will allow them especially with this first you know iteration of it we would we would allow them to kind of you know come in and dip their toe in the pool and go out as necessary because there'll be more of that flexibility in the schedule so the most involved student would still have their Saturdays free and I know mr.

Blenda alluded to it as being a Saturday mornings but it's really a far far more than that we show up in the morning and we're here all day and then we would go someplace to compete and generally speaking they're not back here until at least 10:30 11 o'clock on a Saturday night and those are for the early shows so it's you know it's it's very very long day and that's really I think why a lot of those younger students who were so enthusiastic about our recruitment model wanted to come and do it and then when they realized how long they were really gonna need to be here you know as a parent myself I wouldn't allow my child to stay out that late so I can completely understand that but I can't change the competition schedule either that's they do it at night that's when they do it so rehearsals will run from the start of school until the end of October start of November you know on an average school year we'll still do the two nights per week we'll do a third night if needed for smaller groups I can always do those individually I don't need a big staff to run a rehearsal for a small group I can I can schedule those impromptu they can be after school they can be before school they can be at night they can be in the morning it really doesn't matter I'm available so I spoke with a few parents who had you know that concern you know will my child be able to participate and still do X Y or Z yes they will because all of those rehearsals can be smaller one weekend show it would be on a Friday and Saturday evening right now we're tentatively scheduling them for October 26th and 27th pending your approval we could also do a performance for classmates during school if if that's something that's approved it might be a great recruiting event it might just be a nice way to kind of encourage them to come back and see it again how many no I don't want to do it like that but if you've come and seen a school musical here you'll find that many of our students come one night and then they come again another night with more of their friends so it's it's not uncommon to see our student population come to multiple events and we're hoping to see the same type of thing with this model did you okay and so from a staffing perspective looking at some stipend positions that we would still look to do Steve serves as the marching band director that's something we'd still look to have him continue to do we'd also support with a marching instructor percussion instructor and color guard instructor those are highly specific text skillsets Steve could certainly work on that but we really need those these people here to help support that the particular specific instruction I want to Eve talked a lot about it I'd wanted to see at least what he's done I was impressed with this when I first saw this this is taken directly from a Matisse it was on YouTube it's their one of their shows interesting there they're actually in our same Dirk it's interesting that they have that same same issues at some point in time and they've worked creatively to find a solution so Amit put this on here and give you a chance to see hopefully it's not to love these new microphones [Music] [Applause] [Music] so that goes on for about another minute I was gonna make you sit through that but you can you know my experience has been and I work with a music department and mr.

st. George when I look at that stage and I see the number of students on percussion which is typically a pretty popular place to be you've got kids on strings as well it's an opportunity just the energy that's there is amazing and I have a friend who's the associate principal over at Amity and talks very fondly of this program and how much the kids really enjoy this blast model you know we also looked at alignment you know what are some of the things going to this teacher coherence plan things that we've talked about you know from the perspective the the plan that's been developed you know we talked about opportunities for communication and collaboration some of those small group student performances this happened to be an example of one but you can see collaboration there and the creativity innovation Steve and I talked about the possibility of involving some of our electronic music students or digital student music students that take that course that works with iPads what could they be doing for stage transitions and you know you know music between you know acts that go in and out you know somebody said you know what about the dance teams let me brought up which is oh another thing I was even thinking about but there's a lot of opportunities for kids to get engaged in this and a lot of different ways and a lot of different student creativity which is I think what we look to do second part is active engagement through performance options where students choose a size the group or the type of their performance so students have more flexibility to choose what they're going to do and how they're going to do it there's still some basic parameters and expectations but there is choice right you know our motivation and I'm really I applaud Steve for coming up with this you know really having a growth mindset like this is a problem that he's seen he's worked to try to figure out what's going on and he's figured let's try something different let's see what we can do Steve is committed to music for these kids right whether it's in school or after school there's I have no doubt about his commitment to what he's wants to do for kids and we know we need to provide an opportunity for them outside of the school day it can't just be exposure when you have one instrumental music teacher Steve knows he's an elective teacher he gets it he knows that if we're gonna provide opportunities for kids with just one teacher he's got to do stuff outside of the school day so he's looking to do something different and you know we've talked about who knows maybe our program continues to change and evolve the last model works we see what we get participation up we've talked about a pep band do we bring a pep band you know that would help our numbers we I can't put 17 kids because they're not all instrumentalists in a pep band I've had a football or a basketball game I can't do that but if our numbers increase that could be another vehicle we could do that you know we talked about the possibility and even if it if the numbers continue and there's a desire to need to go we can look at bringing a marching program back when our numbers continue to go up maybe we can we can do something like that the sky can really be the limit but we're really looking for at this point is some sort of change because we don't feel sustainable we're concerned about numbers and what's going to happen there you know I really have like I said applaud Steve's you know let's try something different and really it could be a more cost effective solution as well I did mention cost very briefly what we're looking to reduce the number of stipend positions that are connected to this and then without the travel and the rental of trucks and things along that make sure everything is housed here end up saving some money as well that's not a primary driver because we really want about opportunities for kids for music but it is something to certainly be considered so I just want to thank you for the opportunity to let Steve come and myself talk or both available for questions certainly I imagine you might have questions they're probably better answered by mr.

Steve George last night come up in case you do have questions but I just thank you for the chance to talk I don't have a question but I'd like to make a comment if that's okay um you know thank you Mark and Steve you did an excellent job really delivering on the understanding of the last format and I thank you and I know mark you kind of mentioned that but for thinking outside the box and having that growth mindset because I think that you know historically I think margin has had a negative connotation as well and this really kind of breeds a new fresh you know why don't they change and I think would be really motivating to students in many different areas of music and the arts to really you know express themselves and it's just a great new avenue I feel like it would be a wonderful thing and I really support it it's very captivating and like I said you can't change it the data is the data and I think that we need to go with the changing times and be proactive and you know I appreciate all the work that you've done behind the scenes to get to this point Steve even he brought up at one point in time we were discussing about different options and models we talked about that band and what could that look like and there was issues there was issues where at some point time things are being thrown at kids and that was prior to my arrival but I mean that's anecdotally what I had heard from the staff so and then the kids who are in the program so but and I and I understand that it's it's too bad that that there was any feeling of a negative you know image from the program because it was it wasn't is that it's a very positive program and the kids who are involved feel very strongly about it and the staff is motivational and it's I know marks hit some of the data with with with you folks about state championships but I mean in the past several years we've also gone to national championships and placed sixth nationally which is I think a credit to how how dedicated they are to the activity event but we've we've done things to try to really amplify the positives that you can have with a smaller group for example one of the things that we did was rather than if you can picture what what twenty kids looks like on a football field that it's small you don't want them to be lost in the sea of green and one of the things that we did is we actually took a mat is like a large tarp from indoor color guard season which is meant to be opened up into our gym we used it as a staging area so that it would refocus the judges and the the audience you know in this one specific area and once we kind of did that it it really did open up a lot of new possibilities for us it came with a drawback the things 400 pounds and we had that you know we lit out there and those kids had to you know hoof it and really set this thing up and a typical traditional marching band setup you have 15 minutes to get your stuff on present your show and then get out and you're penalized if you don't adhere to that so I'm proud to say that we always did a very wonderful job with that but here with switch into this model now we can we could really create a show that's entertaining and and quite a bit longer as well it's it's not an easy transition this is gonna be very difficult bite to swallow for a lot of people because we're looking at moving from what essentially six and a half to seven minutes worth of music to about 35 so it's it's quite a quite a big undertaking but I think we're really up to the challenge and I look forward to it unfortunately not with this model no it's and I don't I don't want to slam the door on it there are other venues that we can look at one thing that's starting to become really popular now in this area is what's called winter winds program which would go indoors during the winter season like like the winter color guard program or a winch a percussion program there's also one now for for wind flares so those players who you know maybe that is those sixteen to twenty kids who are really hardcore about I want to be here and do marching everything we can look into doing winter winds and that would be a competitive program for them as well were you able to talk over this idea with any of the students from the marching band to get their feedback yes they they're cautiously optimistic you know anything new is you know Kent can be frightening the the one thing it's the same point you know that competitive piece of it is very exciting and in when you're at a marching band show it's especially the later it gets the bigger the bands get and it can be very it's it's very powerful and so I think in that's not we're not ruling out going to those things we just wouldn't officially be there in a capacity but we could certainly still go socially on but it's I think that's really the the biggest piece of it they're excited to still apply their craft and certainly excited with the opportunity to draw more members into it so will this be mandatory for bands students so yeah right so bands students will be mandated to participate with those four or five large group numbers if they don't choose to be a participant who comes to those extra rehearsals and learns how to march then we'll do it with we refer to in the businesses park and bark like we'll find a place for them to stand and play their music from there for them to be more like a typical concert right and instead of seeing but instead of being seated they'd be standing in a location that we would determine for that so it's almost a combination of marching band and concert at the same time correct with the idea that we would kind of slowly rope a few of those kids once they see the activity and understand the fun part to it that they would be more motivated to to come back and as mr.

Blandon alluded to you know if if they're all kind of on board with that then we can say look this is the program you know we could go do this outside and compete with other bands do you want to do this we're open to it the sky's the limit so then because all of the students you know it'll be a mandatory thing it'll be easier to have the practices that is what you're saying because it won't have to be always after school you can incorporate it into class time for the music yes for the motion portion of it no you just need you need a lot more dedicated focused instruction time for that and that's really where those kids who are coming for that extra time are gonna be earning the marching band credit portion of that because that would otherwise it'd be trying to doubled it yeah turn that on how you can hear the button yeah and this one we preload I had two kids go through the marching band it was one of their life-changing experiences and and I was on the parents Executive Committee to support the marching bands on the big marching band supporter I went and looked at your videos from the blast season it is amazing how small the bandhas right I mean I lived through the ones class three then class two then class one and this is so small you're right they get lost in the field right anything in that class one number just to define that that's anything from zero what one really 240 right so yeah and the first year I was there was like 75 and all those Championships you listed I think my kids were involved in them so one way or the other all right the competition portion of it is lost here and that's very important developmentally for the kids who do put their heart into it but it doesn't work if you have so Phuket's so I applaud you're trying to take some action I guess I have a couple of questions one is what's the root cause of why we're having fewer kids coming and getting an interest and it's not I'm busy and I have competing interests because we've had that all along right that's not changed that's been there for the last 15 years it was always the thing why are they not coming is there something in our programs at the middle school is it something about the kids is it something changing in society I'm very interested in why if I I mean if I have to pick one I would say societally because if you as Mr bland alluded to earlier only three programs in our area and those those are the big large Class six bands New Milford Norwalk in trouble those are the only three that have grown in size in the last ten years uh-huh so I I don't know I don't know why that affects Brookfield specifically but I I can tell you that that is [Music] the trend in the area I don't know exactly what it is about the activity that makes it that way and and the kids who are involved with the program would tell you that they love it so and and they would tell all their friends they love it and they do tell all the Front's they love it so it's it really I'm very much at a loss to to give you a solid answer on that okay so the related question is am i I'm putting on put words in your mouth you tell me if I said this right we're canceling the marching band program and we're implementing the blast program I wouldn't put it that way I'm saying it purposely that way because they're Defra clarity are we doing a marching band program of any ilk yes okay tell me I I thought we just did but I guess I wasn't there marching band program includes competitions on discuss extracurriculars and intelligence then know if you're if if if curricularly your statement is that a marching band program must include competitions then yes we're canceling it and replacing it with a different model okay I just want to make sure I'm clear that's what we're doing secondly numerically how much are we saving by doing this what is the actual reduction in stipends the actual reduction in implementation costs an actual reduction in cost that the music costs and the like yeah I can get those numbers well Mark's looking for that Steve I wanted to ask want to follow up on sure mister felt his first question are you getting this any kind of a sense I mean you had a big turnout in enthusiasm from the middle school in the spring I'm assuming that was the right ring when you write Mon and then the kids didn't show over the summer would be able to ask any ascertain him any information from that glean any any insights and I don't say in either anecdotal or some right interpreting and anecdotally there were there was there was a strong sense that this was going to be a lot of time spent out of the house and so when you go and you do a recruitment event and you invite all the kids there they're on fire they want to do all of these things and I think once it gets home to where these you know now they're at the parent stage where they're the people who need to drive them to all these events they're that people need to make sure that they you know study and practice their their craft I think that the time constraint was really the the heart point keep in mind to the the the the bulk of the students who showed up for this recruitment event were sixth and seventh graders so we're talking about you know children they're 11 and 12 years old they're not 17 so then they're not providing their own transportation but if you're gonna build a program you have to build they're the people who are gonna we're gonna see it through so while I thought it was a great effort and it was certainly well received you know we did it a few different times and went and worked with them but it just it didn't turn out the kind of numbers we needed to really save this current format thank you ends up being from a stipend position you know the total stipends we were paying I was close to $19,000 for all marching band we're just filling these three end up getting close to about $7,000 savings is what we do by not filling some of these extra set of extra statements you know as far as cost for the program that is gonna you know depend on travel and budget and what we're looking to do I don't have those numbers right with me as far as what Steve spent specifically on you know the budget rentals and things like that but we're projecting based on his historical spending was about $6,000 last year for those travel expenses in addition to the $19,000 that was spent on stipends you know so you're looking at closer to you know total marching band program was about twenty-five thousand nine hundred thirty dollars is what it cost from the marching band program those ancillary pieces you know we're looking to save seven thousand plus at least you know without the travel expenses it's hard to really tell what that's gonna be at this point around those firm numbers I can't said exactly what it's gonna be but it would be a significant cost savings because we're not traveling every Saturday and doing those there's a six thousand for the our pocket spending including but it was included buses or no no so that was on top of that it was on top of that okay was this budgeted i but I did budget approximately $6,000 for those transportation costs and you know for as far as stipends are concerned when we're looking to see you know we had this discussion multiple times about what we can do to cut stipends I had to cut back stipends anyway you know that was the discussion that came to the board so some of these stipends were already gonna be cut and we're gonna fill them with what we had with those four that we presented I think it can we ought to make sure we scoop up any of the savings here and put it in a place where we easily trollin yes so that cludes bussing because that's always ones that get hard to get our hands on have to settle well it's you're dealing with the reality of the situation I said I guess what the way I'm dealing with it so we'll the marching band program come back do you believe I'd like to say so you know that's that's really the the end goal of this is that we would then have this blast type of model which could be really theoretically done any time of the year it doesn't have to be during the fall but that would be hopefully in addition to a competitive marching band season I am totally in favor we have all the equipment that we would need to do it and the uniforms I paid for right so I mean like I said we have everything we need to do this so it's to bring it back and you know this this can be done almost at any time I mean you can go to a single competition if you if you want to just do one you know to kind of dip your toe back in the pool like that's it that's the thing that most circuits do allow for and and it's you know it's a small fee to to do that for the one week so I mean it's it this is not something that we're looking at eliminating and walking away from it so it's got a good history it's got a strong tradition it's just my main concern was that if we do nothing differently then we can't expect any different results I agree but at the same time I'm not sure we're at the root cause of why kids are coming got so much energy coming out of huckleberry I think you see let's go band it we've all seen that at the parade's and then you can't get kids at the high school to go do this sort of program and there's something missing in here who actually owns the the Chilam from K through 12 the Amarna from your partner this is our rough parts leader I just there's something that's I'm not getting my hands on and why the energy doesn't build through the 12 years instead it said it's yes to build and then drop and then your and then the high school struggles to get enough kids and and it's a wonderful program I'm just gonna I'm just I'm gonna give an advertisement yeah the numbers drop the huckleberries and that was talking about and and I'll just you said it's you know that may be a bad reputation it was the most formative experience for my two boys right being in the marching band and as adults they are better for and so I'm a big fan of the marching band program the competition the outdoor the discipline everything that goes with it is a very positive I see some good things here too but I would hate to give on to give up on it forever but I think it needs that root cause well you know but it needs the root cause of why how do you build the energy at the middle school level to get it so that that's in one of them one of the things that we have going on this year when we talk I don't we talked earlier about the strategic plan in our five-year matrix one of the things that's going to happen this year is we'll be sitting down with Margaret and really taking a little k12 at our programs in the arts and music and so forth and replanting and seeing what we need to do for 1920 if there's changes that need to be made so I mean this comes at a good time in that regard in terms of Marc Marquez with leadership in the review there I did have a question though Steve if we're seeing statewide with the exception of those three communities this drop is you know that that Saturday is an enormous commitment that you talk about and society changes and and this is a big question so I don't expect to have the greatest answer in the world there okay but I mean the powers that be the entities I know when we have on the ice hockey humid for example with CIA C we really talk about changing dynamics in society we talk about su at the board tonight we talked about social media and how we communicate I mean things have changed you know the society moves faster than the the entities change you know our institutions and so is is there any talk among your colleagues that that are involved in marching band of taking a look at lessening or changing the way that Saturday looks I mean that's a lot to ask you know our varsity athletes don't put in a 12-hour day on a Saturday when they have a competition I mean we're asking a lot of in these ones do ya there's a varsity athlete I understand but but my point to that is they they're putting in 12-hour day that is a lot to ask from adults from anyone sure um and these often are kids who are in very competitive and rigorous courses they have part-time jobs and they have other activities they're involved with volunteer and service and so forth so that is that is it's a lot to ask and they're learning what's the talk if we're all if we're seeing it statewide role in the dropping or we couldn't do anything about it we can try to adjust have you heard it I think the real problem becomes logistics because it's an activity that's done outdoors on a football field so you need to do that activity when the fields free you can't do it on Sundays not in Connecticut there are some New York circuits that that do that day they use both days during the weekend many bands what they what they try to do is they try to get the the most reward for their time spent by doing some of them will do double and triple shows on a weekend we've done a few double headers and I've found that tents that really exhaust the kids but it's we do it when it's when it's feasible it's really the only way around it the treble the the reason it becomes like a 12-hour day is you know you might only have three hours of rehearsal time and then it by that point it doesn't make any sense to send them home and have them come back in an hour they won't be back so you take that as a communal lunch break which is a great time for for you know fellowship and an understanding where we're all going and then you have to travel to wherever your competition is and then you know where a class-one band so we might be on at 5:30 or 6 o'clock but you're gonna go through the whole night if you have 10 or 12 bands play the last one doesn't play until you know 10 and then you have awards that at 10:30 and then you're back on the bus to come home and that's what makes the day so long really it's in in part the day becomes longer because we're smaller because the alternative to that would be to leave after you perform and in which case you'd miss the award ceremony which is when you you know you get your recognition and even you understand like what you are doing there in the hole you know the other the other downside to competing as a small band is that you generally also compete for a small audience on those Class six bands they might start later in the day they might they're definitely going to show up later there's no incentive or reason for them to show up at five o'clock and not play until 10 it's it's a very counterproductive for them so on sometimes we have looked as a director community of altering and alternating when large bands of small bands go it's had minimal success honestly it's a lot of the show hosts that have tried to do this to have found that their profit margins have suffered because those big bands might just stay until intermission and then go someplace else and they take all their burger spending and all their you know I don't know I mean it's laughable but it costs a lot of money to put on show biz y'all didn't know so you can tell you it's it is a lot of money to put on a show to host the show and unless you really recoup that it it doesn't make sense to do it so it's there's a lot of angles to it it's um there's no one right answer enough I appreciate that thank you thank you very much well personally I love it and I think it's engaging there's a lot of energy behind it it's moving with the times and I really think that you're going to get more student participation by you know through this different mode oh so I like it thank you thank you appreciate you taking the time sure to be here as a presenter does Joe something else we have this as an action versus emotion does this need to be moved and approved by the board yes okay so we need to yeah so reckon recommend motion with the board receive a presentation on the proposed BHS bless program ins recommend event capes subcommittee and approve the proposed gun blast program second we've had the discussion already I believe is there anywhere that wanted to read something else okay all in favor aye aye aye opposed so we are back to one of that thank you very much [Music] alright next we have the strategic facilities steering committee recommended recommendation possible motion I am a recommended action that the board here a brief presentation from [Music] John Posen schema cysteine was this since key from Tecton and discuss the recommendation of the strategic facilities steering committee to build a new pre-k K k25 school on the existing huckleberry hill elementary school site second the motion and we we might have a possible motion we might have a possible motion I would like to do a brief report before Jeff takes over if that's okay with Jeff and then I'm going to stay up there with Jeff in case anyone has any questions because I just I've been living and breathing us forever if that's all right with everyone on the board [Music] okay we are finally at where we have been working so hard to be for so many months so many years and it is my pleasure to stand before all of you tonight and to give a formal report as the chairperson of the strategic steering committee the objection of the strategic steering committee was to tour and evaluate all four schools put out to bed interview and hire an architectural firm meet with this firm to develop options taking into account current enrollment anticipated enrollment conditions of the four schools great configuration and to meet with educators and host informational public meetings ultimately it was our goal to agree upon a plan that would serve Brookfield's for decades to come I am pleased to report to you tonight that we are confident that we have found and unanimously have agreed upon what I call the perfect plan the committee throughout the process has exercised transparency health public forms solicited advice through surveys and provided the opportunity for public comment during all meetings our committee benefited from a mixed political group consisting of two unaffiliated they're Democrats and three Republicans our mixture included Board of Education past and present members a selectman aboard a finance member a representative of the PTO our superintendent to municipal building committee members and a representative for our senior citizens this committee has done and done well our due diligence to the residents in educators of Brookfield as a fellow board this is an exciting time for our Board of Education and for our town we are embarking on a new horizon with thoughtful ideas for embracing the value of learning while taking into account everyone's special talents working towards enhancement and wholeness we believe the presentation you see tonight encompasses those desires this has been a rewarding journey it has been my honor and pleasure to facilitate this group I would personally like to thank the following people to a learner passport number and beginning facilitator representative Steven Harding past board member and a valuable wealth of knowledge for me concerning our town and state Eric Conklin our director of IT Erica for those of you who do not know he coordinated the website the Facebook page and the surveys dr.

John Burrell superintendent of our schools he represented forward-thinking and was always a voice of reason select women sue Slater who is respected maintained and retained Brookfield first Eileen cook for the finance member Kristina's immerman PTO representative in parent Debbie Brooks fellow board member and parent Joey Goldstein fellow board member parent educator and work field education enthusiast Paul Loftus retired businessman representing our senior population Paul check Oh past Board of Education member architect and current member of the admissible building committee Josh plumbers architect and current member of the building municipal building committee that made up all of our committee and they have been an absolute pleasure to work with so after the presentation and you have a time to ask your questions and in your thinking what happens next if the Board of Education tonight votes on accepting the strategic steering committees recommended plan for the future of our public school system according to our town charter the next logical step for this committee is to pass this on to our town's Municipal Building Committee for further development we are excited to be at this point in our adventure although we will no longer have a primary leadership role as a committee our new role is to ensure a smooth and seamless transition to our municipal building committee we will continue to have input meet with and continue to voice the interests of our community's educators and vision for our town and for our children so I hope that you enjoy the plan that we have been working on so diligently for months I encourage you to watch keep your questions if you can until the end and without further ado I am pleased to present Jeff Wilson ski from Tecton Associates our architectural firm Thank You Eve again my name is Jeff was in Skype from Tektronix I prepared a presentation the agendas up on the board there and items once before I kind of want to recap fairly quickly they were part of the first two forms so you should be familiar with those and then spend a little bit more time on item five which is the preferred option and then modifications or alternatives that we study within that preferred option and then discuss the next steps as far as a high-level schedule so as even mentioned the thank you to the planning committee they were wonderful to work with they worked quite a bit over the summer as well at various different meetings but really took the time to analyze every option possible which I'll review tonight again consistent with previous presentations some of these slides or repeats are updates we've tried to keep do the lines of communication open multiple we had a couple of public forms multiple community outreach meetings couple surveys were received about in addition to about a thousand responses really helped us inform some of those decisions relative to the options and over the summer as I mentioned all the way back from I guess early December last year we have met I'm working on this plan our team at least again consistent communications providing handouts brochures factual information based upon the process snapshot of the survey results you can see some other quotes that we had presented previously but also the last two I think are important is they really kind of boil it all down where the community was really concerned with minimizing disruption to the students faculty and staff and then really makes the what option makes the most sense overall for has felt most long-term benefits to the to the community Brookfield so again recap our charge was to work with the committee to establish a a 10-year master plan sort of look at all the schools we analyzed the existing conditions the exist of the educational needs we had many multiple meetings with faculty and staff to talk about existing and current and future trends in education and how that would inform our programmatic requirements we engage the community we looked at the options holistically a comprehensive approach across all different schools combined it with some potential potential for some early capital maintenance improvement projects and the ultimate goal was to have a kind of a guide a long-range plan overall so work completed so forward or just about wrapping up all of our hard work related to to the study of this project here and it started with the existing conditions the the input sessions with the stakeholders relative to the educational needs we reviewed the demographics we developed multiple options on originally and we had ten total options and they were down to four for the for the second public forum which we presented and then after that we took the input received debated at numerous meetings about what makes the most sense the benefits concerns and and the most beneficial impact long range and ultimately settled on an option called C prime so there is a method to the madness as far as the number and sequence so quickly the basis for the options as presented previously you take basically relative projections updated enrollment projections over an 8-year period and you pick basically the largest projection and you take those numbers for each of the classes for each of the grade levels and you apply it to a state standard square footage and you get your maximum allowable square foot that's how the state reimburses projects they'll give you reimbursement at a certain percentage based on a maximum allowable square foot so we have to stay within that that square footage from and from there we looked at each school this was a table that we analyzed just the existing conditions that documented site area floor area grade levels great configuration we analyzed each site relative to topography site access a variety of different components we did that for each of the schools huckleberry risking air and of course the high school as well some of the again on the basis of the options some of the clarifications that are important I kind of highlighted in a certain in the orange square there all the costs that you'll see tonight are kind of escalated to a midpoint of the potential construction period at 2021 so those are the numbers escalated to a midpoint of a potential construction the reimbursement percentages that you see are the percentages that the state is given currently to the town of Brookfield and that's based on a whole host of statistical information that you submit to the town and then maximum allowable square foot is based on the current square foot and standard per student as the state so basically they gave it a costume a table in order to compare a variety of options we have to be consistent with our data in the input that we put in so the cost summary table that you see here is broken at the site components building components existing with renovations proposed renovations or school so we'll see all of these metrics they're kind of the range they're not the highest they're not the lowest third they're kind of the mid-range based on a lot of historical information that we've had and collected over the years you'll see towards the bottom the reimbursement rate book field for new construction is twenty two point five and four renovate as new is thirty two point five there's all the rumors that you'll see we're all refer to tonight our total project costs that means that includes the construction costs of the building so everything that you see physically can touch and what's called soft costs and what's in soft costs is if you take this building you turn it upside down and shake it for I'm sure that comes out the computers that come out the architects that come out those are all soft costs related to related to the project so it's all in costs I mentioned historical averages supported this this this effort was to also look at viable options for new sites so we took a look at basically 6,000 tounging properties we didn't look at private properties when we looked at Tom women stay on properties and felt that them from from a deep perspective from our area score a foot perspective and and analyzed the Navi site happy landings we actually looked at a property immediately adjacent to the town hall what that can yield and ultimately each of the proposed sites yielded a lot of different concerns so we we took that and then we focused our efforts to what you know the existing campuses that you have currently there's a series of options here and I will tell you that they're all set up in a variety of different ways we've looked at great configuration we looked at square footage of buildings we looked at age of building the costs that it would take to bring those buildings up to code both from a code perspective but from a program perspective as well so a lot of different options basically ten in fact that was studied initially and kind of the summary there were who really took a hard look at the student population a projected population of each of the options great configuration and how what when exit has overall to the to the options and then this is a summary table obviously there was a lot of other work and data behind this but on the left side is really where you should focus at left column which we analyzed cost the duration of construction disruption of the students faculty and staff quality and aesthetics Pampas drop-off safety fields and amenities and then the ability to deliver a 21st century educational space so we we tried to analyze these and prioritize the options and then we came up with basically four options which were the four options that were presented at the second public forum which we relabeled just for clarity purposes a B and C at a b c and d excuse me and we presented those at the public forum and really a couple of the options within those are new construction or renovate as new so either you're gonna build a brand new building and we looked at the benefits and challenges of it and for example for new construction the benefits are it was disruption to the faculty staff and students which was a key driver the challenges may be that you end up with ten percent less reimbursement you'll see those in the numbers but when you look at it and the holistically in the big picture it tends to average out renovate isn't so many challenges there you can't pick and choose you have to go in and basically renovate everything in the building so those numbers as you start to renovate the more complex the renovation the numbers between the actual construction costs of renovation and get closer so ultimately ultimately we land it on a preferred option c and this is the option that we presented at the public forum as part of the four options but the committee narrowed its focus based on the feedback we received from that that community outreach program and some comments from the survey and what it is is three schools in total it's a new pre-k to five at the huckleberry hill site demolition of the existing school that's on that site repurpose Center Elementary renovate is known for the whiskey barrel school and that would be great configuration six through eight and then targeted capital projects for the high school which would remain obviously nine to twelve here's a little bit of the detail as to what would happen on each of those projects and the costs associated with so now the costs associated on us highlighted here are the cost to the field after reimbursement and again every option that we analyzed and presented had this had similar information so we were comparing apples to apples all the way through the project so auctions see basically is pre-k to five what you'd end up with would be projected anyway would be eleven hundred and thirty-eight students the building area maximum allowable area according to the state for reimbursement would be only one hundred and thirty-eight thousand square feet just for comparison the building that's out there now is two-story and a total of sixty seven thousand square feet so you're basically doubling the size of a building on that particular site and then you see on the bottom the project cost summary where there's site improvements parking new building demolition of the existing it all totals up to [Music] project costs summary of 64 million dollars yeah the soft cotton which are on average around 18 18 percent you end up with the total project cost of a 76 million dollars to deliver that project risk animator school plan to be renovated as new what's interesting about this option is you take pre-k to five and you put it on an huckleberry you automatically right size risk and air according in the state size so six seven and eight total 715 students and you can see you know in this in this chart here the maximum allowable operating the state is around 115 116 the existing buildings 125 so you're right there so without spending a penny it gives more breathing room it gives the appropriate size four six seven and eight so that's that's a key factor that was discussed many a times during the during the meetings in the high school at this point is targeted capital improvements there's a laundry list of items that we collected during burn our existing conditions analysis and the heart engineers and consultant team have provided more detailed lists along with that to give you a plan for that school so knowing that we wanted to focus in on option C we wanted to validate the program so in that hundred thirty-eight thousand square feet we wanted to make sure basically validate that we could fit all the classrooms all the pre clay classrooms grade grade grade level classrooms one through five all the special education and applied academics all the health and physical and all the program elements in that building we basically validated it through a detailed program analysis that's obviously draft but it proves out in the end when you take all of the program elements and the efficiency factor that you see in a typical new building the total gross building area would be around one hundred and thirty-eight thousand which is at or near the maximum allowable for the state so you're within so it works basically is that that was the point of that exercise it works for for your proposed program and future educational needs so then we took that program and developed a conceptual site plan and a conceptual floor plan now these are very high-level and this is what the building and indoor site could look like as far as layout and you can see we're maintaining if you can along our Candlewood there's an existing site access point that I think is in the ideal locations for our sight lines for entrance and exit to this I went to the site this option and all the options that you see tonight maintain that entry point the lighter gray area is the footprint of the existing school that would be removed after the footprint of this proposed yellow or orange color footprint is the bad new school and the gray area what's what's nice about this option or one of the benefits of this option is that you see the parking fields you could have lost Parent PLUS bus and parent drop-off separated you have from security purposes you have administration on front of the building you have distance between visitor parking and the entrance to the building you set up for all of the current needs of a 21st century educational facility the other benefit is we are able to maintain a couple fields at the completion of the project once the existing building comes down you can maintain two fields a baseball field in a soccer field and what's nice is you can now share the parking that is basically servicing the building so we looked at a conceptual plan where if you fool with the site the the back portion of the site steps up about 20 feet from the existing baseball field that's there it steps back to the back property line about 20 25 feet which is about a story story and a half if you grade it out so it works so that this particular building conceptually anyways could be stacked so that we heard a lot of comments and we're concerning the community was concerned about making sure that building maintains a character quality and pedestrian scale to it and 138,000 is a pretty good-sized footprint but stacking the building up the hillside maintains that no portion of the building is over two stories which is which is a nice feature to have it fits well within the context of the site and some of the concepts on the conceptual floor plan were you can see and I won't go over in detail in this plan anyway the early childhood pre-k and K and great ones are in kind of neighborhoods great - a great warning - for that matter it could be in our own neighborhoods in the idea or concept behind this plan is that all the shared spaces which are the orange spaces kind of in the middle here and the blue spaces of the community spaces are shared amongst all the grade levels but you don't have to travel past I know it purses neighborhood or through another student's neighborhood to get to those those common core shared areas and that's a that's a theme that you'll see consistent through the development of this concept the other pieces the blue areas is in a location and that it could be easily locked off for community and nighttime use as well so we want to make sure we want to think holistically about the the community use of the building so the benefits and challenges of this site and I think the the committee was restricting towards this option obviously it enhances the ability to improve the siting of the building for safety and visibility and enhances the opportunity to meet the 21st century gives you a maximum flexibility to do what you want as far as the design of the building you're not you're having to deal with the constraints of an existing building whether it's Florida floor Heights or structure it leverages the realization of the existing site one thing that should be noted is that we recommend whether this built project goes on whether this building is built on the site or not a secondary ingress and egress out through the Navi Road site which is a it's a site that's dedicated to open space but allowed for vehicular traffic through and I'll go over that in the next site plan it the other benefits to this option are it reduces or eliminates the disruption of the occupants consolidates the two schools from an operating and energy efficiency standpoint as well so there's some efficiencies related to combining these two schools and again as I mentioned it basically right sizes Wisc inerrant without spending a dollar the challenges you know senior further back on the site so there might be some more infrastructure cost phasing and sequencing a site logistics obviously the students would be in the existing school as this this building would be constructed if it were to be constructed for their back which we don't think is an issue it's done quite often it's not like you're renovating within the school itself that's why we chose the new versus the run of it is new there are some flood planning considerations that you can deal with items that should be more but challenges that certainly could be overcome with big design due diligence is required obviously we don't know much about the the site as far as geotechnical piece you would have to consider potential reuse of the center elementary after this program is completed and the multiple points of ingress and egress and there is for renovate ever do a ten percent swing in the reimbursement rate but you'll see how that that weighs out and various different options so the committee was kind of drifting in fact improved this this before option and to their credit asked for additional due diligence on okay let's take a step back just make sure and validate that that we have our thinking correct with a couple of different couple more options and I'm I labeled them c1 c2 just to stay within the option of with that with any option of c1 so seen wagon is goes back to four schools its renovate is named for the center Elementary which would be pre-k and K and add some central office in there because it's if the buildings too big to house just pre-k and K and then building elementary school grades went through five on the existing huckleberry Hill elementary school site demo the existing school on that site renovate is new for for Riskin air and the high school remains the same so the costs associated with that obviously are a bit more I'm is there's more projects and you lose the efficiencies of combining the buildings so we'll see those numbers vetted out here a would be the grade levels one through five at 53 and the center schools in order 14 cost Brookfield and I'm whisking air in the high school remain the same so the detail is here but I really want to get to C prime so I can really dig in a little bit more detail and then when it does is it does affect the the student populations of obviously grades 1 through 5 it brings it to about 950 student building placing the pre-k and K into center Elementary which would be about 192 students so the challenge with that small school is obviously the complication of all the services in each of those two schools you can use some of the efficiencies so then we looked at what we call option C to what if we what if we tried to save some of Huckleberry Hill Elementary for some kind of assignment grade level configuration and then build also build a school up on the hill maybe a slightly smaller school so that's what this option is it looks at placing pre-k and K in the existing huckleberry Hill elementary school with renovate as new so would be completely renovated we demo a portion of that building in order to make and you'll see in the site plan make best use of the site we build a new very level one from five up on the hill with my purpose Center elementary and then renovate his new skinnier and targeted projects at the high school so that option costs 50 92 for the new school and about 10 for the renovations to the huckleberry hill for pre-k and K and then whisk in air in high school are the same you'll see the great configuration breakdown is similar to the previous option is just all on this site now which is 192 pre-k and K and 954 grades 1 through 5 in the new building so this is what it could look like and what you can see is we again maintained the existing entry access exit access point to the site we removed a portion the one-story portion slab on grade portion of the building and the portion of the building that is out back which is I guess the the Moore's most recent addition to the building in order to gain access in and around to the site - to the rear new building now what's important here is there is other factors that for the reasons why we maintain this this point here is because the grade level believe it or not is around 400 elevation 400 at the entry point and if you follow that path along the top there it stays around for 100 405 so we're trying to kind of minimize the amount of site work there and provide a safe level entry point to both buildings well we would do or at least what this conceptual plan is indicating is we could flip the entry to the renovated building - to this courtyard side and we'd run of a basically 28,000 square feet of this building for pre-k and K the footprint of the building would more or less stay the same although we would kind of shift some of the grade levels around in the new building the square footage would come down from about 138 to about one hundred and sixteen thousand square feet so what happens here is you lose some fields you pick up some parking it's a little bit more complex as far as the vehicular circulation on the site and then we summarize these because we thought this was a fairly decent one but then you really have to look under the hood under this option because the benefits are great okay we're using the existing a portion of the existing structure it may be less costly initially Daewon AMA kit provides there was some concern about the level of separation between the various different grade levels that was a theme that we wanted to address and you'll see in our final option how we did that and the other benefit is it allowed for future expansion of universal pre-k because of the building if you save a portion of the existing building for expansion you could do that but the challenges are that the sequencing site logistics during construction have become a lot more complicated because you're trying to work around all of those components it's not impossible just you're paying a premium for that you'll need some field space The Renovators project is a bit more disruptive this it is more disruptive than if students faculty and staff albeit we could probably maintain some of them in Center Elementary and lose the operation efficiency not only from from a programming standpoint from personnel but from building efficiency related to utilities and maintenance you're paying double what you're paying or there's more billing envelope there's more to maintain so those become long-term challenges from an operating budget perspective the other piece that you have to consider when you only put pre-k and K about 200 students in a school is that the spaces that were in tonight the media centers the cafeterias the kitchens all of these you have to start combining spaces and and narrowing them down limiting the the maximum effective use of that space because you can't you know we have you have a the percentages become less as far as those those four spaces so you often find that you have to have a cafetorium you have a limited kitchen for for this option you may have to use the full kitchen in the new school bringing bringing lunches over and have a warming kitchen and the existing pre-k renovated project so that was colleges that I think I'm really pointed to the last option that I mean we considered which was because it's really option C which is a pre-k through the five new society that's what we heard during our community which was the relation and then the five so could they have a transit credit the physical design support a transition year up to the middle school for grade five so we established basically to know the childhood Learning Center and I'll show you in the plan and a fifth grade academy at least conceptually so this proves out that it is possible to achieve all the various different aspects within one comprehensive building project so the dollars associated with us are very similar to option C they're tweaked a little bit as far as parking and the site improvements because the site changed a little bit but right side of this slide is the important piece so it's totally by me welcome this project rota to proceed is about 78 million dollars for for pre-k to 5 138 thousand square foot building the cost of boat filled after reimbursement is around 63 and the detailed statistics we can get into that if there's questions yield out here you can all the math is there and so we were asked to look at take a second look at option C we reflected back on some of the original conversations we had relative to the education educational needs and and we heard consistently from the community and from the faculty and staff that that someone actually does have this term I have this sense of scale this sense of community to it so we documented that we took another look at what it is that's that works so well I mentioned the scale the simplicity of Circulations neighborhood quality the dedicated court hurts and try to and then translated that kind of feeling that's those statistics those elements into a revised design or conceptual design anyway for option C crime so what's changed a little bit again the entrance exit we remains the same location the field configuration changed a little bit and became a little bit more organized and simplified which is nice from an approach standpoint from vehicular and pedestrian circulation it maintains the national parent bus drop-off it gives a long queue line for for drop-off and pickup for both busing a parent gives an idea setting and a set up for a mystery that offices super visionary eyes on access to the site here which would be in this block and I'll show you in the detailed floor plan and gives good good circulation control access and she went out of the building this is a floor plan diner and I'll go walk you through each level so starting on the right side of the plans that's the first level that's the mid level and that's the upper level so it's still maintains that two-story feels so you'll never feel like it's bigger than a two-story in fact it will feel like a story and half of most instances building kind of climbs up the side of the hill the purple shoe is the location of the early childhood Sam and it was refining so that it is it's only basically school within a school it has its own neighborhood its pre-k and K has its own dedicated courtyard has its own dedicated entry drop-off entry areas for administration so it's basically its own in school on but benefits from leveraging all of the core spaces that you could share the the media center the gymnasiums the cafeterias that also has some name for Boris motor schools with sales and physical education within there setting itself the fifth grade academy on the left side is all the way up on the fifth floor it creates this kind of a transitional space that's a sure community that you may may help them in their journey to to middle school and then the green is the shared core spaces which more or less remain the same but became a little bit more refined so you see the keys on the right hand side as I mentioned the established neighborhoods create this this early learning center is very clear for people that are approaching the building that it is a separate pensions exit' drop-off separate school separate will set up protected court notes for for that those grade levels shared spaces the fifth grade academy as I mentioned and we feel will go through the plan is it the layout provides transitions for multiple grade levels from pre-k to k2 one to two and then three to four and up to five so it can be structured depending upon as the curriculum develops for each grade level II it has a built-in flexibility to it which i think is a nice option for future future planning so this is the first floor drain level you can see the elementary school entry could be on this side this is a public day entry for visitors so it would be a controlled area and then down here on the lower portion of the slide is the think ADA - early childhood learning Learning Center and what you see is that you have the admin all the public spaces on the front side of the building so they have eyes on kind of the access points and then the classrooms are for back into the building they all have natural daylight a couple surround outdoor gap protected outdoor gathering areas which are here and sorry I'm trying to use the which are located here on the light green color okay the colors coming up a little better there and then the blue on the top of the screen is the the gymnasium cafeteria the core spaces as I mentioned that still provide that my time or off our community use as well so as well the gray level what's nice about the Early Childhood Center is daily activities and circulation all could occur within that neighborhood within that portion of the building I'm if needed the special education space and there's some dedicated special education spaces that are immediately adjacent to it there's some outdoor play as I mentioned there's a multi-purpose room that could function as PT ot could be gross motor skills could be play could be or lab so it's that's the idea is to have biffed and flexibility in this area and then you know this is really where these shared specialty spaces for the entire school can be used as well which are in science and engineering innovation labs you see a lot of nowaday maker labs there are art labs music world languages if those exist as far as multipurpose classrooms and these are located on wrong the left side here maker in language and then the specialty of curriculum smaller classrooms for smaller group learning kind of sprinkled throughout so the adjacencies of these specialty spaces are are easily accessed from each of the grade levels without having to again travel through another person's neighborhood the other piece that we were asked to look at to make sure that we build in because of there is there's going to be a bubble year where you need an extra classroom and I go somewhere maybe something happens in the town where you you see an increased population but not enough to build an entirely new school you see in the light dotted areas on either end where we've designed kind of the neighborhood of the pod so it could be expandable by one by two classrooms so that the core spaces are there the utilities are there all the planning is in place so that if you see a consistent increase in population you could add one to that for our classrooms two to a building without having to basically build until later start from scratch and that that forward thinking was really something that was really pushed to him during the committee's and that kind of that can happen I hope on pre-k and K but it also could happen on the upper grade levels as well as you can see here these dotted lines there now again additional flexibility built in if it's just a building year and you don't you don't understand the ability classroom just for that one year you see the media adjacencies of a similar size classrooms right too nice too many limits that could be easily translated into an additional classroom should they need it so so there's this whole idea of flexibility forward-thinking was built into these plans and then lastly on the I guess the upper level which is basically one-story above the grade on the hillside the center there is the grade five Academy where it basically puts them in their own suite if you will that has the general classrooms has a place for great gather and presentations and makerspace experiments presentations is really a highly interactive collaborative space which you see a lot in some of these designs the 21st century environments so Adam so I think you know after this presentation or a few weeks ago to those there committee I think everyone was satisfied that it really addressed all of the comments that we heard my life from the community but from the committee itself I'm so that's why Reardon this evening um so we also talked about okay you know the next steps you know it's the community outreach now to communicate the facts of the project the process that we went through and that's why some of the presentations that I give out repeat but it's important to communicate that the consistency in the communications has been the same and is based on a natural progression for the project I they just highlight this area because I know in our thunman than planned this is a real draft schedule so it just gives you an idea our charge was to plan out for ten years if this first project if this project was the first step it takes about four and a half years from now to open the door into a new school so there's a lot of planning and I have another detailed schedule that go over so on average it takes basically an additional one you've been at it for another year and a phoneless two so six and a half years from national concept are we through to ribbon-cutting and in soon as coming into the school as far as the process so you can see that you could spend them out every four and a half every six and a half obviously the has to be folded into other capital projects in the community but that gives you an idea of how how you can lay out some of the future school projects now detailed schedule the orange I mean the green box is where we are basically right now we're almost into fall where we're presenting our preferred option and some of the key elements and these are all draft settles so those are meant for interpretation and modification but there's some hard dates that you'd need to be aware of and so we're here basically in the fall of 2018 where we think you know wave three to four six-month kind of public awareness campaign of the project and the pros and cons of it that take place for some time some spring level referendum in March April of the five year 2019 so what's important on a schedule is the state right here June 30th in fact is the submission deadline for grant applications you need for that you need a host of kind of checklist of items about ten the biggest one is obviously the bond referendum successful bond referendum short proving that you can successfully fund the project he oral board education specification need a host of other items but obviously the biggest one is spawn referendum approval so you would submit their application in June come out with what's called a priority list they take all the applications that they received throughout the state create a priority list and issue that priority of us typically I've been on December 15th someone was second third week of December where you basically seem to be falling in the list you get most likely being on that list we have enough projects that never made that list but they listen in priority a B and C you'll given beginning a priority and that list includes all the dollars the description of the project it's basically the legislation that then gets sent through all the difference different committees for a spring state funding approval so that we did that that state funding approval so when we play this out so so in December of 2019 Nick's not this year next year you'll get where you are in that list and then you're sitting wait some years in spending march april foolís some years it's been in all the way there was a year to musical where they they had budget issues and didn't approve it all the way into the fall typically it's only spring where they give you that list they say you're approved you're finally approved what that means you get a fine you get a fish estate number before that you have a temporary number you get an official state number and you can if you start the planning like all the design documents before that period before the spring of 2020 you could probably put it out a bit basically you need that permanent in order to go too big to for contractors so if you play that out you can see the overlapping design pre-construction element here so if you started back in some time in the fall of nineteen with the detailed design and planning for this thing and you're almost ready with bit documents the spring of 2020 you get that that notification you send it out to bed and you can get get moving it's probably an 18-month 29th construction start to finish you would be looking at reposed occupancy of the fall of 2022 now that's if everything goes as according to this plan obviously there's some some maybe some changes into the into the overall milestones in this planning but if you want to do this now start now and follow this process you'd be finishing the project particular project up in the fall of 2022 some so thank you for hearing me out of lis it kind of illustrated the process that we went through and I think we're excited the community is excited that it were found the right solution here so thank you it's very informative thank you very much I think we can open up now video in this questions I have one ok um was the cost to demo huckleberry in there I couldn't like see ok yes yes that was and did you as a committee maybe ask other town boards are there I guess groups if there wasn't another purpose for center relatively immediately I'm just trying to I'm trying to think about what people are going to be we're gonna have senator just sitting there right up line that we'll still have to maintain someone so if there was another use for it that at least people could see coming down the line I think they would be a little more favorable to the project so if you haven't read and I would say that's something that needs to be a priority before this goes to referendum know the answer to your question is no we have not gotten to that point yet we felt that by giving center back to the town you read all the time and I'm hearing and maybe sloth moments later can if she has any information she could pop up here for crunch for space Town Hall is really crunched so we thought that by us not having the need for center school that giving it back to the town would provide an opportunity for our town G is a you know do you have any I I'm not sure if you guys have talked about it yeah she is yeah this is later I'm on the committee also we have not any conversations within the Board of Selectmen itself I've heard conversations within town saying well you know we wanted to place a library so maybe that's the place in library or maybe we just you know get it off the books all together and sell it so those are the options that we've had so far but nothing you know official I don't either thank you question for Jeff um a so weak you know down the road we prove it tonight it gets grouped a referendum you know it goes to the state we get assigned a priority a B or C um and then I'm not holding to this at all but based on what you have seen in what you have done whereabouts do you think we would fall and we're of what do you think the probability of getting state approval and funding for this would be is good because of the process that we went through I will say that the dialogue should start relatively soon in fact we've been talking about this with the state to explain this is the process we went through these are all the options we study this is where we've landed the community is starting to look into supporting this option and have a dialogue with them to make sure that they understand the history behind it and that it's coming and the chances are pretty good the dialogue should start relatively soon so relative to prior a B and C as long as you're on that lists that's really what you want to achieve and we haven't had an issue with that some so generally most of the projects that are on the that's it yeah sure content thank you sure so so I have a question actually this is murder dr.

Moreau they in one of the earlier presentations way back one when we had the initial consultants come in and look at the demographics and the like they had made a comment about elementary school large elementary schools yeah are sometimes problematic vanish and it says eleven hundred and thirty eight students what are you seeing with eleven eleven hundred and thirty eight student I home every school is that a good thing is that hard to deal with I mean I yeah is that would be big for Brookfield it would be and I mean frankly to be bigger than high school and so it's so in in terms of population of students so that was the key that Jeff really went throwing is what we talked about as a committee is the nature of the smaller communities at both of our elementary schools especially talking about center school and the community feel that it has the smallness the safety the protection the just the feel for that and we wanted to make sure right from the start with the design of the school that we talked about that concept of neighborhoods and we really bought that word as a committee I don't think we officially have were voted on it and I'm aware and initiate we initiated that phrasing but talk about different neighborhoods for the grade levels and importantly was the concept of an early childhood center as we evolved an option C prime which was at the separate entrance for a younger students the option for administrative or super supervisory oversight of the space and then one thing that we really haven't talked about a lot as time goes on we will is is the almost doubling of the size of those prior classrooms from 780 square feet I think to almost 1200 square feet so the opportunity for the gross motor work the space for planning and group work and centers the opportunity to bring specialists into those classrooms that we would like rather than transition the students out into the gymnasium for example or into an art room and have have it worked on there it just gives you all kinds of flexibility the bathrooms are also in the kindergarten rooms that's important for people to know in this design so we really wanted to have that cozy small safe nurturing space for our youngest children but the neighborhoods gives us that space for all of the children the way we have them so we break down the largeness through the school within a school in terms of pre-k and K the separate entrance as well as our neighborhoods and to give you any logistical information about like cafeteria usage inch amazing the usage in terms of that many students trying to come compete for the Common Spaces yeah I mean we talked a little bit about that Jeff I think you know you really crunch the numbers on that in terms of it's a great question popping spring yeah it is a great question I think I skimmed over some of the there are some flexible program elements as part of the Early Childhood Center which is a larger multipurpose gross motor skills space for those activities I don't foresee pre-k and K going into the larger gymnasium for those activities they can they can take place here they have immediate adjacency to an exterior protected exterior space so we've built those kinds of spaces at a smaller scale into the early childhood center oh cool yeah and the other thing we don't the committee talked to we spent a good time of the amount of time on was not only those protected courtyards but also playscapes and playgrounds for the children ended in different locations so there would be one place Cape that's for larger children that the little guys have to figure out how to use we would make sure it was appropriately sized yeah again I mean conceptually it's set up to support the idea that you could in fact have you know gray level exterior playscapes on each kind of side of the building and they are further back and protected from kind of the public aspects of the buildings so I'm still struggling a little bit with three layers so the elementary students the pre-k K they come in are they in a two layer two to four yeah it's basically like a split-level if you would think of it that way so you come in you'd come in the dedicated entry here admin comes specialty spaces here there's pre-k K there's four pre-k classrooms which are just to speak to the size up for a second 1200 based on 1200 square feet today you have an average the size of the classrooms are 789 so that's the difference so we continue on there's four there you could see kind of up the hallway the corridor be open to above you come up a half level and into six more so that's a half what look like a straight that's a full letter it's a full level it's 0 up 14 at 1415 and so this is their best too high of a front yeah - I'm not front and too high in the back so the middle level of the building is kind of a second-story on the monitor yeah exactly but when you're approaching the building and when you're circulating around the building what's nice is it only feel like two storeys so the front the front facade is a two-story exact lot but you see this all third storey the back so you may not from a perspective and you can see it because it's it's further back deeper to the building center yeah so I think it's coming in and then they go to the classrooms they go off the set of stairs yeah the yeah okay yeah favorite so that and that's the reasoning behind kind of a wider kind of Main Street there kids come in they can go with the circular up through to their classroom pot and if there are different or viable times they could you know one grade level could come come through this kind of Avenue and another grade level could go through there so there's opportunities for flexibility for from an Operations standpoint and this again it's a conceptual plan but it I think it proves out some of the concerns that you have I think no I just was having trouble picturing it and you know one of the things we'll probably need to do as we start taking us around is a kind of a front view you know artist rendering surfing's yep the what as you went through the different cases was one of the cases of renovate as new for all the schools yeah and that was the difference in price on that versus this case so the renovate is new there with new segments we're going to find the so centers school keeping it as a pre-k to one and huckleberry Hill keeping it two or four the center would be cost to Brookfield would be 19 million again cost the Brookfield for the huckleberry Hill Elementary would be 21 so I can get the detailed information but with that option you have to keep in mind that you have five to eight at whisking here it doesn't resolve the right sizing with Skinner that's why they would tell me a whiskey near would be a little more expensive it would be a little bit more expensive and you probably would at that point consider an addition a permanent addition that was scare to properly accommodate crates fire and you did necessary we did that and I don't know if that was option one but the only reason I'm asking it's a very simple question is is you're talking to the popular the general population while we're building a new school they're going to say well how is that different than just renovating what we have right that's a very simple logic and I'm just trying to get my head around how much money it is so that's it's looking like about 20 million dollars right and that option was actually presented at one of our public forums at the high school and when we looked at that as a committee we decided against it so this was just more to get contest yeah absolutely and again tonight this is all you know very conceptual tonight we're presenting to you our findings and our recommendation of what we would like to look at from here it would go on to the MS Municipal Building Committee where they would actually take lead with this and we would be more of an advisory our committee type situation and this is again this is we're following our town charter we're following the natural progression of how things should be working in town and and how we're going to have it work and then they would actually put out to bid another architect taking Tecton associates work in into context and they would be working with the NBC and then actually drawing up the finalized plans so let me let me just put my question in context as soon as I got out I don't want it to be misinterpreted we're showing a bill here sixty three point three million dollar cost of rough field for the first big project right there's a second project around Roxbury and but the real cost of Brookfield isn't sixty three million because what again we have to do some renovation anyhow right so I'm just trying to get in my head the difference between building a bill that just rent it just renovating all for us I don't think or just renovating the - right so you just gave me those numbers were like 40 million versus a 63 built new so the if you if you take on board that we're gonna have to renovate anyhow these are old schools the real net have it costs the Brookfield's about 20 million dollars those schools I think that's what that's what that's what looking for that we have to do so we got that on there there's also a cost to temporary temporary housing students and their cost yeah so but so that's an important number yeah yeah I got this I think that's a really important number to have this s in context if you assume we have to go renovate anyhow that's gonna cost you something and this proposal were bringing is twenty million dollars more or fifteen million that's more or whatever I just and that'll help people digest it I sure yeah those options and overall costs were summarized in the second public forum where option a clearly identified was often a a renovator everyone is due for all of basically all three we didn't count the high school yes so if you had the difference between a and C yeah agency pride what was the difference so what was on a slide for option a project cost to town for pre-k to one an option a a was 18 to 20 million yeah grade levels 2 through 4 at huckleberry Hill Elementary was 20 to 22 million yeah and then you have to consider great the renovation for western air 5 through 8 because it doesn't pick up the 5th grade and that was targeted at 44 to 48 million okay all right and then option C if you were to build basically new pre-k to five and you should probably use the C prime number yep that was the 63 points right yeah which is back here on your chart yeah yeah 60 yeah exactly say I know and what was the huckleberry number that one with this one I'm sorry that whiskey near London over there like with this one a lot of 44 well the whisk and our number would be basically revert back to the original option C which is 37 39 37 39 okay but now you're I guess the point of option C is you could get closer Wizkid and I wouldn't we wouldn't advocate immediately a renovate as no to whisk in air so if you build that new pre-k to 5 and alleviate the fifth grade and whisk and Eric gives you gives you Tommy's and that's why that often came up you don't know so but I'm a pendulum I took the midpoints of those that says the added cost for doing a renovation it was near by doing renovate his new was about eight million dollars so I kind of calculated those about 623 million added cost for builders new - the 8 that you'd have to spend more at whisking here yeah and then are the other so it's not tangent listen dollars is what we're talking about that's kind of a net new costs to get a brand-new building that's kind of cool yes also to minimize disruption to the students and our staff yep oh yeah huge huge yeah we were kids in that do those numbers include temporary classrooms and stuff or not they they did include you look in the detail it did include temporary modulars and the him for phasing what it does not include is the operating efficiencies related to utilities operations which you know it's really your real cost because you know that state one cost that you're talking you're really paying every year for to operate the building and that's where the true savings would be to the overall sure so you had said that your suggestion yeah yeah so you see kind of secondary entrance egress there there's in maps that we found there's kind of a dotted line that was related to some kind of easement we couldn't find the history behind it but it would go along the edge of Nabi which is owned by the town and dedicated as I think recreational open space so um but regardless of whether there's a new building here or not it's good practice nowadays if you have the ability to have secondary means of egress and ingress to a school site you do it so in other words for the existing school it's a nice to have especially because the light blue area which we presented this this kind of shade here that you see coming through the middle that's a floodplain so by a matter of fact you need to means out if you put a building on the other side of the floodplain what we're saying is you may want to consider if nothing happens you may want to consider an alternative needs to be this alcove burial site from safety logistics all those kinds of things thank you just on numbers have we done the work on our infernal staffing and operating costs on why should would this model would save us over our existing structure and not done that analysis yet okay we're gonna need to do a little later we haven't done that analysis yet and we Jeff does that we do have the utility operational costs they did that analysis I go it from the floor to three buildings how much does our food Jeff is that one cost avoidance of I'm thinking like $200,000 per year $220,000 um yes in that range but let me give you the specifics so we did there is yeah and the conservatively $200,000 a year range and savings and utility costs now that's a conservative number depending on costs and stuff it could be as high as 253 but to hundreds the safe numbers so that's average ancillary costs how I'm just thinking back to what happened with a library project and and and when they've got into the Board of Selectmen at Board of Finance meetings and so we'll remember this it was every single question was about operating costs you know what is what Safa costs you know what do you need to do to manage the buildings that's different so we need to probably kind of get ahead of that in this case we're consolidating schools from two to Elementary's down to one and but yet that the early childhood center and there's gonna be some staffing implications and that's we just want to have a good crisp story and a vision of what that looks like so [Music] I am just a comment I'm thrilled with this plan I think it solves all of the problems that we have from the onset we're taking fifth grade out of listen here we are keeping our our pre-k K one-in-eight a more closed environment but yet pulling it under the same roof for efficiency purposes we're building a school that we know is going to last us I'll say 50 years it's in our average schools are sixteen hundred sixty-two years old now but yet we're still keeping a neighborhood feel for all of our grades so we're supporting them within that so I I think it addresses everything and it's exactly you know we'll be it asks define I just have one quick comment I think it's appropriately named the perfect plan because I think just as Colette said I think it's it's not just a new building and we have to keep remember I know we can talk about renovation but it's not just a new building that we're getting I mean yes it is of course but and safety we're improving our safety which is obviously about most importance but I love the emphasis the collaboration spaces and the innovative educator I mean it's going to be a new educational experience it's not just a new building and I think that's the direction that we need to add so I love it yeah I think well so that's really important too because it would be such a waste of our time and effort just to build a pretty building if it's not for thinking and doesn't you know move us ahead to reach our goals as a district and even just the the idea that you had sketched out possible extra classrooms because you know who's who knows that the community will change over the years and and that's something we should think about to be prepared for because it's gonna happen you know another piece of flexibility that we talked about was dr.

spawn I've had some detailed conversation on pre-k we have an increase we're looking at kids mid-year and for the end of the year that will be turning into the 3-year old range and we'll be looking at four year olds and our pre-k population is is booming and where does that go just in the natural progression of things where does that go in terms of us as district strategic planning and thinking about the opportunities for pre-k and more offerings perhaps as a district if legislation changes where we may actually command it the road to have universal pre-k again that might be a decision we want to make as a community having said that the flexibility to add a user side of the building is also really important did I see that there's an extra field on this last plant to be net up a field I think you just maintained I learned it I thought I saw two soccer phenom as a building there is I think a better arrangement of the athletic fields in this scheme it gives you a little bit more opportunity to have multi-purpose fields okay there's one of the site today there's somebody feels there's basically one athletic warning that he spotted a baseball field an or two of two baseball fields are kind of am jealous yeah I came in in the soccer field um at a soccer field how long yeah okay we'll probably want to have parts in rec time actively part of that field structure yeah absolutely yeah okay I think this is really cool hey thanks to even little committee for all this great work it's really impressive thank you thank you it was actually our honor to do it was very exciting for all of us and it was a whole community of sorry too much community committee effort everyone on the committee really really spent a lot of time and it gave their input and it was a whole committee effort to get to this point is there gonna be another public forum that basically presents okay where it goes from here if the board decides to vote for it yeah I would then we would then bring it to the municipal building committee they would review it they would pick it up they would work with us and then yes the short short answer is yes but this committee would not be leading it and even work would that be do you think prior to the whole gist do you think they were at that point you wouldn't be on the committee but prior to the public meeting where we would set the referendum a yes yes almost most definitely most definitely know what's gonna happen next is we do have another committee meeting set up and that is enough for August 30th at six o'clock there we're going to be discussing your vote tonight and where we go from here so at that point it would be up to whoever on the FEC takes over as the new chairperson and most likely they will invite us to be a part of it so we will continue to have a voice and be a part of it but they would be the entity really leading it and moving it along from us because that's really their specialty and I think you just making a comment because just a little history on this community because we set it up not with this this board but the prior board is one we've got it going we actually had a discussion about the structure and and we said it would be best first of all that it's not just the court event and it's a you know that we wanted a broad broad representation on this committee but then secondly we anticipated this moment instead said that would be a point where the Board of Ed responsibility to cly's doesn't go away but it declines because we're not building experts right and the NBC increases and we purposely asked Paul chucko and Josh flowers the Chairman and vice chairman of the NBC to be part of this committee so that this transition is seamless right and and we wanted to have a Board of Finance now on and a Board of Selectmen on it so that we the processes when we're going through those boards that they're they've been part of us it's it's this is this was very consciously thought out on the makeup of the committee and Anna spent so great watch I mean I just I've been loving watching how they give it taken but now is when the powers known take off because as we go through a transition to the NBC needed to do it we're not like starting fresh I know that's really good that the other thing not it's just from a process point of view that and to go to your point is the formal process is the NBC has to grab it and kind of build up the planning and the planning and presentation material to carry for we need to be part of that and part of the selling of it but the formal process it goes to the Board of Selectmen for their review there's usually a public hearing as part of the Board of Selectmen review process that they vote on it and it has to go to the Board of Finance they often have a public hearing as part of their process and then it goes to town meeting right which has another chance to present all of us and then it goes to referendum process and I just saw it with the library - by the time it was at Board of Finance it was like the project was lost by Sunday because they were like well what are you talking about it's already with the port of finance like I don't know anything about this project so that's what I'm trying to get ahead of I actually think there's a great opportunity to have the community as part of this handoff process to have a meet read or let the public see that the final proposed I think there's some really cool stuff in there that's hard to understand just looking at a schematic on a website that if we got Jeff up saying okay here's you see that the committee finally settled on we could build some excitement long before we get into the process I think so too and I agree and thank you for that Bob um but before we get to that and go through the process and then maybe that's something that the NBC would you don't like to join us we already have josh and we've had Paul on the committee and you know I have to say without really having two architects on that committee with us I don't think we'd be where we are today they have been a wealth of knowledge and they're supported tech done associates right away the whole time that Paul and Josh done and they started talking to each other but yeah and these are all good discussions that we can have on August 30th which is also a public meeting anyone from the public is welcome to come it is at six o'clock at the town school offices so are we ready to bring this to a vote okay recommended motion that the board approved the c-prime plan as presented by Jeff Kaczynski any other like because I asked that we modify the motion and as recommended by our staff I'd like to move to amend the motion to include all right so this is the move to approve the amended motion all in favor all right okay so now we are voting on the motion for the C prime plan as presented by the strategist presented by the strategic facilities steering committee and time time all in favor [Music] I would say okay Mike Oh Eve and joy and Debbie for all of your tireless work on your and the entire strategic Facilities Committee this has been a long way going and we appreciate all of the work that you bought this and thank you for having faith in us in for listening to our proposal we appreciate it it's great all right okay um we next on our agenda is upcoming events but before that I would like to make a motion to modify the agenda to include the session of three main points so write a second in its second amount of modification all right all in favor all right okay so for the three main points for those that are hearing it's not on the agenda um this is something that involves actually just out of our self evaluation board retreat before this but it's been something we've been doing is aboard for the last couple of meetings on our Facebook page will resend just present three main points from the meeting so those that don't have the time to sit through one of these meetings or read the minutes or watch it at home can instantly grab the main gist of it what we decided to do from there is just the site as a board together just very briefly what those three salient points are going to be that we're going to bring forward I know number one says yeah we've got number one how about the other two I think the last mile yeah I was thinking what about the fact that the budget during budget was under budget by approximately 50 okay are we all agreeing with us yes all right I don't think that's something we have to another thing is just know I just really should and that Lisa we on a public put that as a standing item in the agenda just before mrs.

good evening and welcome inside the K dome what is affectionately the home turf of the air academy high school boys soccer team whom they will be taking on Pine creeks Eagles in a district 20 matchup good evening my name is brian german i'm alongside dave Toller for this one and pine creeks of 518 air academy is a for a team but this is usually a pretty good matchup whatever these two teams get together Dave and Eric Adam coming off a stellar year last year yeah they really are Brian this should be a great game you see in the best in 4a right now air Academy undefeated last season 2000 they won the state title at that for a level Pine Creek a 5a team they qualified for the state tournament last season but a lot of turnover between both of these two teams on the roster yeah we'll get into that a little bit more when we get into the broadcast but you you mentioned Pine Creek making the this state playoffs they were 5 and 1 in league and I think coach correlate Ben Corley does a great job getting his team prepared for that league season so that they can make the playoffs Air Academy no one really gave him much to worry about except for maybe that state championship game last year and they just rolled through everybody it'll be interesting to see if the cadets still have that that same zeal after winning a state championship well and they should they've got their goaltender coming back who started every game last season and they have one of the best players in the state we'll talk to doc talk about him throughout the broadcast daddy is doing 16 goals last season and he'll be read in the midfield today for the cadets Pine Creek has had a lot of turnover but like I said we'll get into that a little bit later stick around we got kickoff from this one from the kado Matt Eric Adam E high school right after this on xx TV you welcome back to Air Academy high school Brian German alongside Dave Toller and getting set for this one quickly I'm gonna run through the starting lineups first for the homestanding cadets from air academy Thomas Beatty the senior captain will be in the pipes for the cadets and then will go in numerical order Aden schwanke Cameron hooker Dylan Cornejo Kelton hooker Thaddeus doing cedric english jeff new bakker andrew hess masons Chandi and Braden John's wall the other captain for the cadets and on the Pine Creek side in the pipe so we li young a junior goalkeeper for the Eagles and then we'll have Mitch frost just an abate Jake Peters trae Mossman Carter Esterly Christian Seaquest Evan McAllister Jaxon Isaac's will Jones and Nick Appleton and if those names sound unfamiliar to you Pine Creek fans there's a reason for that lots of turnover on this team and lost ten players to graduation and even more right Dave yeah they sure did 16 players from last season are low no longer with them 10 have graduated six others for just a variety of different reasons some are academics summer because of injuries someone to focus on school but almost a completely entire different eyerly different roster for this pine creek team coming into this season so we'll see how well Ben Corley's got these guys ready he seemed pretty optimistic when he told us before the game about these players he loves their attitude this season want to give a quick shout out to Paul Isaac's and Phyllis Gunderson for watching us tonight thanks for watching us guys hopefully we'll do you good I guess just about ready to kick off and Pine Creek takes possession right off the bat okay that's quickly cut it off and come back the other way hooker to doing or excuse me to schwanke who pushes it back and the cadets will try and gain the other side of the field a couple of new players on the backline here for air Academy they do return their Tet their captain their senior Braden John's Wald number 22 you'll get a good look at him tonight but two new players on the backline for the cadets nice cut off there by Evan McCallister on the far side for the Eagles but the cadets quickly regrab possession moving ahead pine creek laying back defensively so far we'll Jones had back and he'll kick it to Eli Young in goal young moves the ball nicely gets it back out to midfield quickly running with the ball right there Christian seek whist seek was pushing Kay that's over and there's a foul train Mossman goes to the ground they'll keep it alive inside Nick Appleton is cut off good job by those new defenders there for the cadets this is Thaddeus doing push it a little too far forward but the cadets right now maintaining most of the possession of this game trae Mossman Pine Creek has always been a team David likes to take their time and just kind of where a team down a little bit and then shoot for an opening long before the game coach clearly from Pine Creek told us the midfield is going to be the key to the game who can control the midfield at at the best throughout the game he mentioned air academy throughout the year they're their strongest right down the middle Pine Creek feels like if they can control the midfield they have a good chance to come out and win this game that was Christian Sechrist with a shot on goal easy safe for Thomas Beatty Beatty a seasoned veteran is there Academy of cadets won the state championship in overtime one to nothing last year and Beatty saw quite a few shots on him that day well he had a great season last year though he started all 20 games eight of those games he had a shutout and made 53 saves on the season so Thomas Beatty coming off a great year on the flipside of that in goal for Pine Creek eli young his first year as a starter he played in just one game last season played 18 minutes made a save in reserve in a game against Palmer Ridge but the first time he's seen the field full-time as varsity player Mitch frost working along the outside down there on the on the end line the kid that's able to kick it out no corner kick yet and it comes to Nick Appleton Appleton forces the issue inside a sequence and doing cuts him off there ok that's trying to run cut right back and the Eagles continue to put an assault on here Andrew Hess with a block right there but the Eagles will keep possession Carter Esther Lee I love the corner for frost again frost gonna send a ball in there good job defensively by the cadets and Mason Shandy back playing D now they push it forward here comes daddy is doing doings got Dylan Cornejo on the right doing with a nice move goes to the ground no call keeps possession this kid is something else to watch and back out front it comes to Jeff Neubauer new Bakker an out of bounds it'll stay with the cadets Brian is you're talking about Thaddeus doing we mentioned his season last year 16 goals 36 points and you just watched the control that he has as he's going through traffic ends up gaining a lot of real estate for his team Kelton hooker now on the side trying to get his gets it over to new bakker hooker working on the baseline can't get it to go good job defensively there for Pine Creek but it'll stay with the cadets as it was kicked out of bounds by Will Jones long as he mention all of those points that were scored by doing last season a lot of points are missing from that air Academy team lue Claussen is out with an injury the senior had 44 points last season but he will not play tonight he wasn't dressed before the game look out coming inside again nice pass down good block right there by Carter Esterly who was back defensively for the Eagles and now pushing it for Christian Seaquest gets it on the sideline they're gonna look for a nice cross here let's see if he can get one off he does sends it inside it'll go back to the other side Evan McAlister gonna try and play it there and the Eagles will regroup as it gets kicked out of bounds and a good job defensively by a new Barker boy what a great run by Seaquest though here's a here's a look at that shot in that block right there and that's what led quick transition here comes Seaquest right at you makes two nice moves to get it all the way down the field for the Eagles frost on the outside kicked again out of bounds by a new Bakker frost with the throw-in comes out to Jake Peters and quickly back as Jones sends it back in just missed on the header nice tackle there by hooker but he can't keep possession now he gets it back tre Mossman players running with him at ball ricochets inside Beatty comes out and takes it boy that was a dangerous play as Justin abate was running in on him but a great play by Beatty and again all that experience that he's gained over the last couple of years a team captain knows when to stay back knows when to go made a great decision right there yes in the midfield pushes it forward another cut off right there Pine Creek doing a great job defensively against this very very potent cadet team moving ahead Esther Lee Hooker cuts him off I'll push it forward and here comes daddy is doing tries to come up the sideline with it and it's gonna be Air Academy ball boy before the game we had an opportunity to talk to both of these coaches you talked about some veteran coaches 16th season for espinho sent over it Air Academy at Pine Creek been clearly in his 19th season a couple of guys that have been around this league and around the game for an awful long time and we had the pleasure to chat with them a little bit they gave us so much information don't know if we can get it all in in the broadcast but certainly thank you to those two coaches for all the information that they provided us that's your job right absolutely nothing just making sure I'll do my best baby sends this one up the field for doing doing with a nice stop good job defensively there is doing has to give it back up he'll get it back on the sideline now push to the middle good push there Kelton hooker Kelton hooker with a nice move nice gouta forward to doing doing goes down no call or was there a call I heard a whistle yeah there was a call definitely and nice plane we'll watch the the touches coming through there's the hit in the back as daddy is doing go down on the play the whistle did blow and fell was called on the play Justin abate and be called for that foul and so air Academy will set up here for a free kick Hein creeks can be right in front of that ball trying to set up the the wall I think based on where they are right now they're gonna move that wall back just a little the officials of course still writing it down I got to take care of all that all the duties when there's a foul make sure it's all notated boy great use of the body though by Thaddeus doing he knew he had the defender on his back and just would not let him gain position did a great job of shielding him away as he was trying to play that ball and ends up drawing the foul on the play so Kelton hooker is gonna set up over the ball doing is to the left he does have new backer behind strings placement here we'll see if they can I don't know if you can even get this ball up in the air for a header or not here but we'll see Kelvin hooker might try and bend this now Aydin schwanke steps in there love to do this make sure you don't know who's gonna kick it here comes hooker sends it oh wow what a great job and there's a goal an easy one for Air Academy Cameron hooker picks up the rebound and puts it in a nice job what a great save that started it all by pine creeks goaltender eli young with a diving save and then cameron hooker sneaking in on the back side here's another look at it there's the diving save it comes over in front you'll see Cameron hooker come in off the back of his heel taps it in the cadets go up one zero and that looked to me like the Cedric English may have gotten the assist on that one off of the beautiful save it was English who's a transfer from Germany transfer student from Germany with a beautiful assist in wide open Cameron hooker and air Academy is excited because they're up one to nothing and coach Coach Rosen told us before the game they were excited to play on this turf it's the very first game on this brand-new astroturf here at the K dome used to be grass and he told us used to wear out in about a month this is not gonna wear out no he just said he was so grateful to be playing on this turf and they've had the opportunity all preseason to be on this to get used to it to get the feel of it and only they came out you loved the way they crashed the net and they didn't all stand around after that save was made they kept playing it and they take the early lead in this game nice job by the captain John's wall to kick that one out of harm's way and the Eagles trying to get an equalizer here Sundquist sends it ahead to Isaacs and now on the wing to Nick Adams who's in the game he sends a nice cross in there but no touch for the Eagles frost now sends it deep and there's no one gonna rush in for that one Nick Appleton was down there realized he couldn't get tore that ball and Beatty makes the easy save little bit of forward pressure here for the Eagles as they try and keep the cadets back in their own end well Ben Corley told us before the game as well that last season air Academy won that game 6-0 but he said the final score was misleading because it was just a segment of about five minutes that really cost the cadets last year push ahead again in Cameron Hooker puts both hands on his head and says old man we might have missed an opportunity there ever he was running along with doing and Cornejo so you know the coach clearly is reminding his team of that last year hey we didn't get that ball clear out of danger they capitalized we got to stay in this stay focused and not make mistakes because if we do this Kate that team will pounce on them Eli young sends it deep it's gonna go off the cadets and stay with Pine Creek mich frost on the wing and the Eagles in a reverse field and they do so Esterly in the middle sends it wide on the side they'll back it up the frost he'll send it in there there's a head just missing the head and good job again by the captain to get it out of there Braden John's wall and both of these teams want to use the width of the field the only goal came off a free kick but you just saw Pine Creek right there they want to take everybody wide throw it right back in and try to get a get across get a header they had a great opportunity right there but a nice play by John's Wald the defender for the cadets Ben Corley and his teams have always been good at those crosses nice passes in there you get a head you get a foot on that ball and you never know if you get enough bodies in there it can ricochet around you just got to be ready to push it by the keeper John's walled forward to schwanke stolen away Esterly he's gonna try and keep it in the middle but John's wall it steals it from him and here come the cadets they'll push it forward Thaddeus doing on the wing but just a little bit faster was just in a bate not cleared far enough though and the Eagles have to come back for it here against come Seaquest stolen away by that is Cameron hooker the brothers hooker on the field Cameron and Kelton it was Christian that graduated after last season was their leading scorer with 45 points so you know they're missing him but the younger brothers are picking up the slack moving in sequence blocked in front a good job there and again I am impressed so far by the Air Academy defenders Mason Chandi doing a great job gets it over to to John's wall I can't say enough about Chandi so far I mean one of the newer players on that back half or Air Academy doing a good job he's been so active and well it seems like early in this game pine creek has really done a good job of setting up their offense Air Academy has had opportunities in transition but a lot of the game has been played in that Eric Adam E and Cornejo looking he's gonna send this one inside Kelton hooker can't get there fast enough eli young comes out and plays it it'll quickly send it out to Aden Schwank or excuse me Nick Adams the freshman defenseman for this team coach Corley was talking to us about him before the game saying people can't believe he's a freshman because he's got a big body out there frost on the wing push it back we'll Jones Pine Creek has done a good job distributing the ball trying to attack each each flank and being very patient with it as well as we watch them right here pass it across through the midfield as as Air Academy is trying to get sent up but being very very patient very deliberate in what they're doing here they try to send it all the way across and again trying to use the width of that field nickadams forward to Isaac Isaac's nice touch back to Adams but it's stolen away by hooker and schwanke in the middle of the field wins that battle and keeps pushing it forward now I'll kick it way forward and no threat to Eli Young who comes out and plays it and here on the near side daddy is doing looked over and kind of put his hands up in the air doing had pulled up the ball went deep and was played easily by the keeper the bait sends this one over to Adams quickly into Esterly you can hear the cadet student body getting into the game sequence gets that ball back nice touch but again it's knocked out of there Andrew Hess this time getting involved defensively so Isaac's will get to throw in Jackson Isaac's is a sophomore defender or Pine Creek another nice play in the midfield by Kristian Seefeldt a senior for Pine Creek their top returning scorer last season six goals three assists 15 points on the year and he's been active we've seen him out on the wing we've seen him running through the midfield he's just one of those players he can play anywhere he wants great throwing by Isaac's but see Chris couldn't quite get to it pine creek keeps possession on the wing trying to get frost going knees pushed off the ball and down and they will keep it to Air Academy a great job by Cedric English sure was they let him play a little bit over there yeah sure we'll go with that Pine Creek now with possession and again that will bring Isaac's over he's got he's got some good arms he got that one into the box last time we'll see if he can do it from this side he's looking inside he's got Seaquest in there throws it in sequence head up there it is Oh Beatty had a save right there but a great opportunity for Kaleb dodge for the Eagles he was inside and I thought he almost had a goal well if he gets anything on that there's a good shot of Kaleb dodge right there who's in a great spot here comes the throwing you'll see Seaquest goes after he gets a piece there's dodge boy what a great hands there by the goaltender Beatty to the lip to flick that up and out of play Beatty had his back to the play but the president's of mind to turn around and be ready and his hands were up and he was able to get that save a good job by the senior goalkeeper and again pine creek gonna keep the pressure on Esterly sending it back Seaquest in the middle see Kristen Esterly Esterly goes down no cold air nice touch forward look out this is Isaac's back to see Quist he wanted it nice move almost got a shot off John's waltz there and he plays it again John's wall with a block and then a play and here's a shot it won't go for s early as beatty's right there with the save a couple of great chances on the last two runs bye-bye pine creek one came off to throw it in here we'll take a look at it here comes the shot right here blocked pine creek stays with it but there's Beatty to make the make another save his fifth save already in this game Carter Esterly the junior midfielder thought he had a goal good attempt and they just got to keep pressure on Thomas Beatty you know Espinoza told us they have a lot of firepower firepower on this team and everybody knows about and fatty is doing in the hooker brothers but what they also take pride in is in not giving up goals and they do a really good job defensively and when they break down Thomas Beatty always seems to be there yeah sure sure has been and you've seen that a lot it seems like Pine Creek has had the ball for the majority of this first half and they got to feel like we're doing everything we possibly can to get to get a goal they've got some quality shots on goal Thomas Beatty has been very good in the net and for Pine Creek and Ben Corley his team he's just got to tell his guys hey guys just stick with it keep doing what you're doing you're controlling the pace of the play you're getting scoring chances eventually something will go in for us so Seaquest comes out of the game and into the game for Pine Creek is the Jimmy kin more on him in a minute here's a nice push forward and it's blocked out of there by John's Walt pushing into a head is schwanke for Air Academy doing trying to pick up the pieces but pine creek is right there Adams plays it off the cadets Italy Eagle ball and a little bit more about DJ Kinch he is a transfer from Haiti did Jimmy is his name DJ I am my coach Corley told us before the game sometimes he calls him DJ Emmy and he says he's got a great sense of humor and he likes that so don't be surprised if you hear that again tonight Odum it's frost Eagles moving it forward that's Kate and Bishop in the middle now just trying to get it through and the cadets pinch him off frost now comes up and gets it back to Jake Peters and further back to will Jones Jones and frost have been playing catch back there back and forth most of the night Jones comes the other side and it's working for him they're being very patient and takin their time and they're setting it up they're moving it the width of the field and eventually they get it down deep nice front pass but again a good job defensively by Mason Chandi getting that ball to Beatty who just kicks it out of there and Pine Creek will retain possession he wanted to make sure that ball was out of play and it was it was up in the stands you get a shot of one of the kids up there throwing it back in play now there was no doubt about that one that was getting up and out he was trying to hit a little taller in close I was ready for it throwing for Pine Creek and here comes Thaddeus doing he's got the whole team to beat nice job taking it away from him good ball tackle right there by Justin abate that he's doing gonna show off his footwork right here gets it by to Jimmy move it forward on the other side new Bakker okay that's gradually gaining ground here nice job splitting two defenders there and we'll come back to John's wall hooker again he scored the only goal so far today a nice long kick by Justin abate down the field the race is on look out that was a tough play right there as Kaden Bishop was moving in on Thomas Beatty and he was able to kick it out of there I tell you a pine creek continues to just just attack the goal and they're doing a great job you have patience but every time they get that opportunity they're right there they sure are and they're also doing it by keeping bodies back in the last time Air Academy pushed across the midfield I look back there were four white jerseys lined up at the 20-yard line nobody was kidding behind him they're doing a good job pushing it up on offense but also getting back on D there's a shot and it's gonna be wide but baby's gonna play it anyway that shot by Danny Cho who's in the game for the Eagles as well as Ben Corley getting a lot of work from his bench now baby just gonna keep this one in play as we come down to the final 20 minutes of the first half knocked away here comes to Jimmy kitch he'll push it to the outside nice tackle there pushes that had been stolen away by hooker stolen right back Justin abate Joe pushes it wide over to frost frost surveys the situation tries to send it into the middle a little bit of a push there on Esterly John's well gets away with it and the cadets come away with the ball Cornejo tried to send that one in there goes off the back of an eagle defender picked up now coming in his eighth and schwanke schwanke takes a shot and two dive and a nice catch right there by eli young in the goal for the Eagles a good job by schwanke there's a good shot of him right there as he's jogging back puts that puts it on goal there's the shot diving save and then well the ball almost got up over the top of him nice play by eli young rolling over grabbing it and holding on good to see young you said it's his first year and starting in goal he'd done a good job so far yeah you can't fault him on that first one there was just a lot of traffic the ball bounces he was a sense of the opposite side not much you can do about that no and he did all he could it all started with that diving save that he made and he kept the first shot out but the next one found its way in Jones sends it over to Nick Adams pushes it forward akinci Kench trying to get it down in the corner and that one's gonna go out well Brian as you mentioned to Jimmy Kent's one of five freshmen on this Pine Creek team and Ben Corley told us before the game that he can't remember any year when he's had more than two freshmen playing on the varsity that's how much turnover they've got they've got five freshmen two of them already see in quality minutes into Jimmy Kent and also Kayden Bishop who came in to play the midfield he's also getting a lot of minutes early in this game so your name's Dave you got a son named Jimmy I want to know if your wife ever is looking for Jimmy and gives him the de Jimmy yeah we should have let what happen it should aware he's the Jimmy I like it I don't need again we say did Jimmy Kent from Haiti I think Corley loves him says his sense of humor and he's just is just great and we got a math substitution now as for Pine Creek more players come back into the game Esther Lee comes back in as well as Matt abate in this game for the first time tre Mossman back in the game he started and they'll throw it in and keep working will Jones will Jones is really the keeper the offense so far in this half he's just surveys the situation in Air Academy just wants to lay back now they push it Cornejo on the run and will Jones right there to cut him off and keep possession of that ball let it go out of bounds it's gonna stay with Pine Creek good job against Dillon Cornejo there and just as you were talking Brian about the way he's been playing offense and just controlling the pace of the play staying back being patient making good decisions going from one side to the other and all the sudden he turns around makes good defensive play on the other end we have a timeout Evan McAllister for Pine Creek is down on the field they're giving him some attention right now let's go ahead and take a break 1707 left first half or wait but hold on director Robb Parish he's up faster than I thought he would let's stay right here and maybe just got you know what happens to a lot of these soccer players we kicked in the shins yeah and you know what it's been very physical after we we've seen a few fouls called but for the most part these referees are letting him play there's been some pushes a lot of guys hitting the deck and it is the first game of the season as well so first time these guys have gone full speed but he is up he is feeling good and we are back at play it'll be will Jones to send this ball back into play and now the kid that's come with a little bit of pressure Jones sends it in that's a Shawn Frazier it pushes it out and it will go back to the cadets and look out the cadets can be very dangerous here they sure can they've had a couple of quality chances not as many as Pine Creek but we'll see if they turn it up here late in this first half new bakker gets it into Kelton hooker hooker pushes it forward comes back the new Bakker he's got schwanke in the middle of the field chooses to go to English instead English double team there and it's taken away by Carter Esterly here comes Ashley up the field John's walls got his eyes on him he's got players with him Danny Cho running along them and he goes down and they are gonna call that looked like I don't know almost looked like he got pushed halfway down Cedric English when we call for the foul Esterly with a good draw here's a good look at it right here just a little shove in the back and especially when it's the guy carrying the ball he's gonna get that call every time and another free kick opportunity here for Pine Creek we will see this is a good position interesting position they'll have Esterly as well as Kaden Bishop down inside some of your taller players we'll see if they can't get someone in there here comes the kick by Jones and Beatty an easy save Jones thought he might have been able to just drive that one to the right of the keeper but he was there and didn't really get any traffic down low and Beatty had to go up and make a good save that was a good shot but no other white jerseys around when when Air Academy got their goal the only goal of the game and I'll take a look at it here there's the save my baby but again look at all the blue jerseys great job collapsing keeping everybody away from their goalie air Academy's goal in this game came on a rebound off of a free kick they did get bodies inside and they got a rebound goal all free at midfield Cho going against hooker hooker comes up with it sends it way on the side and it'll go out of bounds as Jeff knew backer couldn't run it down and Pine Creek will come back the other way with it a Shawn Frazier good hustle getting back there by Pine Creek that was Nick Appleton that was able to to get in and force that ball out of bounds and give the throw-in to his teammate there over on the far side they'll come back to Jones he'll use his big leg and get it up the field looking for Carter Esterly Esterly has it knocked away from him by John's wall but that amazing how quickly Pine Creek can move that ball all the way up the up the field when you have a leg like that you can gain a lot of territory quickly Bishop blocks that shot right there but look out here comes that he is doing a couple players on him nice job defensively there by a bait to knock it away and they're gonna call a foul is doing went down on creeks fans don't like it here Academy fans do when you make that call as an official yeah there's always somebody that likes you right now half the crowd Elijah half doesn't there's a good shot if Thaddeus doing was taken down on that play and Yannick Adam II will take possession in the midfield limping a little bit now he seems to be okay here it is again there's a good shot of it right there just a 50/50 ball two guys went in and played it and took that kick right off the shin right off the ankle so Braden John's Walt's gonna take the free kick lease it's the way it appears Mason Shandy on his left John's walled sends the ball in there and Esterly even easily steps up and takes it out will Jones now sending it forward look at look at the running by bishop for the Eagles that's off of John's walled and again Pine Creek goes from being deep in their own territory to just past midfield they'll push it forward a good job keeping possession there but the K that's quickly school squelch that off that he's doing trying to keep you take control here does so with his head he's on the race he's got Cornell with him nice move by doing shot a nice save by Eli young but what footwork by fattiest doing well it really was and he set this up perfectly again using his body as that ball gets over the head of the defender doing gets in nice move right there just a little bit of space and he puts it on goal nice save by Eli young his fourth of the game and I'm sure that wants that one back he should have went into one post or another went right at the goalkeeper made that pretty easy safe for Eli young here comes Shelton Hooker moving it ahead doing can't get that one but hooker can and they're gonna call doing this time for the slide tackle a little bit out of the way so he got the call last time justin abate take it for Pine Creek well in that time that was thaddaeus doing he was trying to just sneak up from behind nothing anybody really saw where he was and he came in and sup getting called for the film again Pine Creek another big kick all the way down here comes Jackson Isaac's take it away from him by Cornejo Cornejo tries to get it back Isaac's walks that one back but it'll be a goal kick for the cadets yeah just going right off of the leg that time of Isaac's he got right in the passing lane and well that ball deflected back about 15 yards and went over the goal line so Thomas Beatty he's gonna size this one up we'll see if he can get it back up the field but so far today you know if this game was still 0-0 you know here Academy gets the fortunate bounce on the free kick if this game is still 0-0 you'd say that Pine Creek appears to be winning the game I would agree they've had more more time of possession they've had more quality chances and but yet that that one chance that air Academy did have they ended up putting it away and not one goal is standing up right now here comes Cameron Hooker pushing it forward to his brother Kelton it's it back to Cameron now across to schwanke can't get it good job by frost to cut that one off and unfortunately he's gonna kick it out of bounds the cadets will maintain possession yeah he had his teammate Esterly over there but he got a late start he was he was running back on defense my time he stopped changed direction came back he wasn't able to collect that pass so it it goes out of play that is doing sends it to the center to Andrew Hess Hess long ball nice job looking on the outside for new Bakker new Bakker chases it down he's guarded by Frazier and now picked up by frost they'll come back up top cannot handle the pass inside that was Andrew Pusan trying to handle that one from Andrew Hess well it was good work by Hess in the midfield though that way that ball came through just a little too hot to handle but the previous one over the top of the defender back into the far right corner great pass by Hess just there Academy not able to capitalize and a goal kick here for Eli Young nice gets a lot leg into that one frost sends it forward but it'll be out of bounds and should be kid at ball picked up by Cedric English how did Espen say to say that because he's German he made sure to say it was not English it was English English English English see Chris can't handle it pass comes up with it I still there by Bishop gets it back to Esther Lee Cho now with it and they'll send it over to Jackson Isaac's Isaacs tried to push that one forward no call here comes the cadets that's pushed in there Eli young gonna come on play it wow that was pretty dangerous as well as Poisson was running in quickly on him sure was he came out a long way but a nice play and just one of those plays you don't talk about very often will Jones just getting in front of Poisson and cutting him off as he's not able to get to that ball the ball rolled in and was taken by young but that's one of those plays that you look and you say boy what a good veteran play that was by the defender will Jones Joe sends it forward he's got Bishop on the run Kaden Bishop can't do much with its Equus is right there tried to get it up in the air a little too far I think but pine creek keeps it carter Esterly there's a shot up high and over the head but a nice attempt there by Jake Peters on the far side it sure was and Peter's was was had all his momentum moving in nice touch by Esterly he had his back to the net he couldn't do a whole lot with it but he pushes it up there was the first touch there's Peters sends in just tries to lob it over the goalies head just a little too much Beatty was right there with it even if he handled had taken some off think Beatty could have played that one now inside Jones having called his name in a while pushing it forward to frost taken back by English English excuse me got to make sure we get that one right Joe with some nice moves gets it up to Peters now pushing it forward this is Seaquest sequa centering oh they tried to set up Joe with a nice touch pass there at Macalester did didn't get there now this ball is bouncing inside and Beatty handles it and he wants to slow it down all the times you'll see a keeper just come out and get going but there's no need to do that when you've got the lead and it's one to nothing air Academy absolutely take a little time off that clock and you know that pine creeks been very patient so they're Academy wants to play it their tax on cents it looking Oh doing almost handle that one that is a great job by Eli young to come out and make sure that he got possession of that ball because if fatty is doing who gets it that's a goal this is a goaltender in his first career start folks against one of the best players in the state and he comes out and smothers that ball that's a great play by Eli young inside four minutes now left here in the first half see if the Eagles can get the equalizer Fraser sends it in and now a long pass ahead looking for Frost but it's knocked out of bounds or no excuse me knocked away by Jones walls great job keeping it in bounds and he goes down and it's gonna be Air Academy ball well the pink Creek coach Bank Laura Lee was talking about his goaltender Eli young and he said he's a very technical goalkeeper he has good feet but he's always going to be in the right position but tell you what he's taking a couple of Gamble's tonight when he's come out on those loose balls and has played him perfectly and another cadet goes down that's English over there on the side and we're gonna get a foul called on Seaquest now speaking with the umpire you see the yellow card Sechrist can't believe it he's gonna have to come out of this game he was standing right there by the official and maybe said a little too much as he gets the yellow card and there goes Christian Seaquest walking back to his bench I'm not sure if we have a good look at the foul to see the yellow card here it is it comes Wow hmmm you know sometimes seeing yellow card for cleats up near the head area but it looked like they cleat near the head area was closer to sequence yeah not sure nonetheless see Chris has a seat and the Eagles ought to play without him for now that roar you hear that is the okay that faithful good good support from the students here coming out game one for this cadet team and they are leading 1-0 this is a bait just innovate getting it to Isaacs on the side centering pass trying inside there for Kaden Bishop Esterly coming down with it and they two heads hit right there that was tough Evan McAllister and Kelton Hooker both hit their heads they both appear to be okay the official coming over right now he's gonna ask it's gonna ask them both if they're alright and you know anymore in these high school sports at every level sports at every level they want to make sure there's no concussions and I think that's what this official is just wanting to make sure they're both okay you did see them hit heads give them a moment let them catch their breath and get back at it point it is you know two two guys going hard after after a ball and they're going up in the air that just you know that's gonna happen there's gonna be some contact but nice job by the officials to make sure everybody's okay Hess kicks it back to English and now Beatty sending it up and here comes Evan McAlister playing it's off guys it's with him oh I like the touch has had a little too much force to get Isaac's on the outside there well we've seen Pine Creek do that a lot too if they're trying to free somebody up that that's coming with some speed and just making a quick little touch pass to them and they connected on a couple they just missed on that one cuz they had they had a guy coming white and he was with speed and wide open there's the K that faithful that you see more than the ball at that moment daddy's doing taking it to the midfield moving up pass on on the Left Cornejo on the right corner ho comes up with it doing try to get me control but frost comes out of there with it and here come the Eagles Christian sequence back in the game can't handle it there's a long pass Kayden Bishop gonna try and run it down but John's Wald is there and he'll touch it to Beatty sends it out of there Fraser watches it go out of bounds and says thank you very much we'll keep the ball 3:30 left first half that last rush by air Academy you could see if daddy is doing the speed and the control that he has and when blue 7 has the ball he draws a crowd around him everybody collapsed he made a great pass just couldn't connect with his teammate coming down the right side doing staying on side right now they push it forward for him and a great job by Jackson Isaacs who comes back and gets the ball be doing to that ball and just kicks it out of bounds to stave them off for the moment but here come the cadets back inside Hess sends it over to Cornejo nice and knocked out of there by Frazier oh bishop tough touch right there is the cadets come back but Bishop does a good job regaining possession now they got frost on the outside he's got Seaquest running with him pushes it forward tomb sequence does a turn nice move but hookers right there to send it to Beatty baby sends it out recalled again by McCallister for the Eagles he'll look send it inside frost shot no offside up side on the play what a good locker not saying anything earlier there was there was there was some you know some tension in the air boy what a good look it could have been a shot from the near side instead a very unselfish play we'll take a look at it right here here it comes there's the player offside right that's a sequence see Christa yeah looks like it was he was the first guy to turn around to the referee and put his hands up usually against the guy no way so it's still 1 nothing cadets 158 left first half Jones touches on the side Frasier Frasier now into Bishop and to frost on the wing frost looking to get its ass equus and it's cut off nicely there defensively by Mason Shandy ok defenders doing a good job so far today but here's that he's doing at midfield they will set up he'll send it across to hooker whoa look at eyes xscape ili young the shot coming off of Andrew Hassan's foot but young right in good position gets the same great position he read that all the way here's poisson settles it down and look at the goaltender young perfect position not a lot of room for poisson to go any place young goes down and makes the stop and covers it up Wow how about Jackson Isaac's he's throwing his body all over the place for the Eagles right now number 12 doing a great job Hester Lee gets it to Isaacs Isaac's gonna look ahead Bishop's in the middle how about that bypass song coming in and just taking care of that ball the key that faithful love it time running down now Esther Lee to Isaac's Kaden Bishop Isaac sends it in there didn't get enough on that when the sequence couldn't handle it Schwing key goes down no call they're gonna keep it with the Eagles as we come down to the final 20 seconds of this first half line again a lot of contact on both sides and as it talked about Jackson Isaac's going up jumping all over the place guys are hitting the deck you you love the intensity in this game certainly do it's gonna be a free kick for the Eagles or excuse me for the cadets it will take their time as they send it back to Thomas baby he'll probably to be able to just let this clock go three two one and that'll do it for the first half and the cadets on their brand-new field have the lead at halftime one to nothing Erik Adam II over Pine Creek it's always a good game and there's plenty of soccer left to be played we'll be back with our halftime show in just a few minutes here on 20 TV you we are at halftime at the K dome on the campus of Air Academy high school Brian German alongside Dave Toller and the Air Academy cadets have a 1 to nothing lead on pine creeks Eagles on their brand-new turf and it's been quite an eventful first half despite just one goal in this game Dave well I sure has been it was the Cadis they jumped on the board early in this one in the 13th minute here's a free kick Kelton Hooker great save by young but the cadets there to clean it up tapped in by Cameron Hooker his first goal of the season a nice job there by Cedric English who got the assist on that goal later on though pine creek would keep the pressure on nice job by dodge but is saved by Beatty off a beautiful throw in from Isaacs and then a little bit later look at Esterly putting his foot into this one but Thomas Beatty is right there the cadets have done a pretty good job defensively but maybe more impressively defensively is pine creek keeping Thaddeus doing off the board he had 16 goals last year eli young with a say they're just in a bate with the good defense and so far it's been a pretty good game Dave it really has been a very even game seven shots for Air Academy six shots for pine creek pine creek controlled to play for a lot of it but it was Air Academy that capitalized on their opportunity and they took the 1-0 lead and that's where we stand at halftime don't go away we'll come back kick off the second half can Pine Creek come back can the cadets increase their lead you're watching district 20 boys soccer on 20 TV you welcome back into the their Academy High School Bryan German alongside Dave Toller we're ready for the second half of this one looks like the start is relatively the same for both of these teams and the cadets will start with possession of this game it's a good look at Thomas Beatty in the pipes for the cadets he'll now be on the left side of your screen watching at home eli young will be on the right side in the net at the right side of your screen daddy is doing gets us going here in the second half okay that's gonna try and maybe protect one goal lead let's see how they play this one they're not typically a team that sits back and plays defense this team likes to score but they will just open up conservatively and get it back to Beatty it's like they're gonna take their time Mason Shandy with the ball in the back half now ahead to Cornejo a nice touch good job by hooker trying to keep it in bounds but it'll go out and Justin Bates will have to handle it for Pine Creek boy for the first game of the year Bryan I thought both of these teams played very well they played good defense they got backed it didn't have a whole lot of holes in their game and I thought the first half of the first half it was Pine Creek they had better opportunities the second half I thought Air Academy created a little bit of space they got out in transition and they had a couple of couple of good chances but for the for the first game I thought both of these team played very well the first half you lost me at first half of the first half first the second half of the first half Isaac's tries to push it forward John's wall kicks it back out of there now Bates gonna have to run it down and he'll come back and go back to Eli Young will Jones the defenseman back there for Pine Creek really been running the offense so much in this game he was earlier as a nice job by frost sending it forward good collection down there and a nice run this time my Nick Appleton Appleton's gonna run to the corner keep it in send it to the middle and cadets are right there to cut it off another shot by frost that one's gonna be a little bit long and everyone watches it go got a little bit too much foot on that one sure did but boy it all started with Nick Appleton boy what a nice play is he had a little touch right there at the numbers on the field ran that ball down took it all the way down to the corner and threw it in front good work bye-bye Appleton there's a nice shot there the senior goaltender Thomas Beatty team captain was active in that first half six saves in the first half punches this one out of there trying to get it to Esterly gets his head on it but it's stolen away by a new backer new backer hits it back to John's Walt and the big leg of the captain the other captain for the K death sends it out of there and a bate kicks it off Oh thought it was gonna get over the fence and into the woods but thankfully the ball is saved over on the far side and a nice play by a bait to keep that ball on on the left side of his body cuz on the right side was Thaddeus doing they were trying to spring him free down the middle Cameron hooker Dylan Cornejo back to Cameron hooker comes inside schwanke and now way outside there's a shot just over the crossbar at a good job by Andrew Hess to get a foot into that one point he got a lot of foot into that one all his momentum coming right into the ball he fired it just about a foot or so above the crossbar but a good look there for his I was gonna say 11 inches but we're a long way away hard mitch frost here's another look at it Wow maybe a couple of feet yes look closer at full speed thanks for the extra look there and a Parker on the replay machine I believe tonight if not it's one of two atoms on the replay machine your sequence sends it in there oh nice touch a kick by Isaacs and Beatty comes out and plays it a good job there is Nick Appleton in the Pine Creek Eagles just trying to get more touches inside on Thomas Beatty yeah they had a lot going east-west they needed one touch going north-south to get something to go toward the goal but again Pine Creek throwing went right into the middle and getting a little action going in front of Beatty a little Twilight going on here we come across seven-thirty here in Colorado Springs on the grounds of the United States Air Force Academy where Thaddeus doings brother plays soccer for the men's soccer team for the Falcons well see if he can follow his brother there check in there frost heads it out quickly run down a good job the Eagle defense and now pushing it forward Peters long kick ahead tried to get Seaquest and John's wall it's just gonna send this one to the side and Pine Creek will reset for the throw-in well you look at these two teams that know each other very well they play each other every single season over the last three years each team has won a game one has ended in a tie in the two years that Air Academy beat Pine Creek those were both state championship teams for the cadets one of them coming last season was a 6-0 win by our Academy this is Hess back to English headed back in by frost Sechrist is there can't seek was gathered this one no johns Wald right there to send it out no foul called they'll gather and go to Isaacs on the other side got a touch run and try to get it into Esterly but K that's again pinching it off here comes Winky up the field he's got doing with him nice job is early what a slide tackle takes that ball ride away from schwanke and pushes it forward here comes Seaquest in the middle Appleton Appleton trying to get it to Esterly just pushed a little bit far ahead and Esterly says what's good let's go back to go forward he wanted to get a little more control out of that I think well he didn't he was one of the first guys to get back down he had the slide tackle that caused the turnover led to that rush by Pine Creek and then he's the first guy to get down up ahead of the play great hustle on that play by Esterly cannot hear what the fans are chanting baby puts it back in action as to lose their hess cuts it off Ashley in doing battle and doing comes out with it fatty is doing looks like a guy who's been using his feet on a soccer ball since birth and probably has been just look at the way he can he can handle it and especially in traffic just like you saw right there look like a 50/50 ball could have gone either way he comes out with it no problem and sends a deep just innovate pushing it forward for the Eagles pine creek trying to set up there is some space in here they'll move it ahead Christian Seaquest now running on the opposite side McAllister runs it down but Oh couldn't keep his footing and English right there to pick it off nice job to knock that ball down and then his foot slipped just a little bit before he could get back to it here comes doing running with players right with him gets a shot off oh what a nice save that is a great save by Eli young staving off that's shot by doing there's another look at it here's doing with the right foot and boy Young was leaning to his left you could see that he plants the foot dives back and just gets enough of that when his fingertips on it - director white of the net but nice job by Eli young he just stopped doing what about three times now when he's had a good chance down low pretty impressed I'm not just young with this entire pine team to say nothing of the year Academy cadets you kind of expected them to be good again this year coming off that state championship undefeated season here comes the corner kick Cornejo sends it in low it's kicked out of there and the cadets will try and maintain possession sequences back there run over and they're gonna give it to the cadets as John's Walled went down on a hard tackle yeah sure was here's another look at it right here see Quist yeah he was in front of the play what they call that fellow is that 19 Appleton yep that's Appleton yeah it pretty tough to get up and put your hands in the air after that one but the foul is called on the play and a free kick coming up for air Academy and it doing has the ball in his hands we'll see if he ends up taking the kick is the Eagles set up a wall he may just touch it to the side we'll see this could be setting it up they've got John's wall down there deep and Hesse Cornejo on the outside doing it's gonna size this one up and see if he can't get it by Eli young it's a good look at that ease it's waiting for the official and the officials gonna check on the ball inside there's a goal and a great shot Aidan schwanke gets the second goal of the game for air Academy's cadence I look at shrinky how excited is he a great job coming in on the backside good ball by doing but hard to believe that ball got through all of those legs and bodies and everybody rushing back here's a look there's the ball by doing gets through everybody untouched there schwanke coming in on the backdoor taps it in to 0kay deaths not much you can do about that if you're pine creek you could expect that ball to hit somebody in front there what beautiful placement by fat doing and again going to the net we've seen that twice on both of the air academy goals and you look at a guy like swanky hey if he holds back and waits for that ball to be touched or to rattle around in between all the legs he doesn't get that goal he goes crashing to the to the backside post the ball ends up on his foot he taps it in at a two goal lead for the cadets and Thaddeus doing is now in the box score with an assist and he's playing with the ball here at midfield sending it back John's walled now is Kaden Bishop forces a turnover and here comes Pine Creek Christian see Chris pulls it back looks for Esterly good cut off there by Hess Hess gonna get up and take the ball with him blocked by the official and now we've got a a man down and that's gonna be Carter Esterly who's been all over the place for pine creek today here come the trainer's onto the field made Christian sequence is with Esther Lee right now maybe just a cramp not sure what we're seeing here but amazing the game of soccer and just taking care or making sure you do something with the opportunities you're given the cadets have done a little bit more with the opportunities than Pine Creek in this game yeah they really have I mean they've had a couple of a couple of free kicks that have been closed in and they've capitalized on both of those Cameron hooker the first one the second goal scored by Aydin Shuang Qian and again guys going to the net now Pine Creek has had some chances as well they just haven't put them away and now down 2-0 30 34 left in this one they have really got a push up on the offensive side and the Center Academy team we've talked about how good defensively they are over the year last season 20 games played they gave up only 18 goals he had six shutouts last year so they're a team they play good defense they don't give up a lot of goals gonna be tough for Pine Creek to come back Carter Ashley you saw went off of his own power and this will be Mitch frost putting it back into play for the Eagles looks like he's gonna send this ball deep there set up down there sends it in and it's blocked right out front by the cadets and daddy's doing comes back with it stolen away by frost frost looks ahead nice job by Seaquest is gonna be Isaac's preemie damnit it off sides and a little bit of an argument there by Bishop on the inside but were there more white jerseys to the left awful close and it might have been sequence again the the offside call late in the first half was sequence got in a little bit too deep nice ball two to go to go cross field and go all the way over on the far side but that time just sequence a little too far ahead of the play gets called for offside Beatty sends it deep and pine creek gets control isaacs to Bishop on the side stone head Dan Danny Jo back in the game for the Eagles okay let's bring it back to John's wall John's wall tries to send it forward that is cut off by Peters and then taken away by hess has quickly be fatty is doing he's open on the wing Cornejo running in there he's got hess as well coming inside doing with a nice footwork still has control of that ball and nice kicked away and a little bit of a shove there by Jones doing brushes it off gets right back up pushing it back see Chris can't get control the cadets keep it English wanted to push it to doing good job by Mitch frost but English keeps it good control by English nope they're gonna give it to the official talking to thadi is doing and they're gonna call a foul and give it back to Pine Creek yeah call it on doing and doing when English work we're in the middle of it we'll take a look right here there's a little little push right there by by doing that's what freed up English to get that ball down the near side so Pine Creek takes over not to ever defend the push but he was pushed to play before I'm doing too Hess sends it up Cornejo pushes it on the outside this is hooker hooker trying to keep control good job defensively but they get it back to Cornejo great job defensively there by Nick Adams for the Eagles they'll kick it out of here here's Sechrist Peters stolen away by hooker and now the cadets gotta take control of it big kicked down by English headed out of there by Jones Peter sends it forward but John's Walt steps in quickly and sends it right back Schwing key on the side there's a long ball inside and young right there for the easy saved he's had to make some difficult saves in this one that one was an easy one in good position comes out covers it up and now he's gonna push all his players forward then he'll just touch one up front to Jones Jones to Peters Peters surveys the situation trying to find that open field Kaden Bishop back to Peters no keep it to frost and Pine Creek still gonna be a little bit deliberate on offense they're down two goals but there is plenty of time 27 minutes left in the second half here Peter's the Seaquest nice push to Bishop but John's wall right there again now here's a fortunate bounce Isaac's comes up with it gets it to Bishop Bishop tries to come around the corner gets by but John's wall comes up with that ball and sends it out of there to hooker hooker right on the line comes away with it a good job he's got doing on the opposite side tried to get it to him but frost quickly back defensively and air Academy just happy to keep this ball to mid field point right now and just play keep-away when it's in the backside doing nice touch sends it in there he's got Cornell running but young comes out and plays it easily well and again you see Air Academy they're keeping their bodies back they've got that two goal lead as soon as they get it they send it out wide the doing he sends it deep and just trying to gain some real estate and run some time off of that clock now with 26 minutes left up 2-0 cadets Jones now sends the ball deep he's got Bishop down there didn't get it deep enough the cadets gonna continue to kick that ball Thaddeus doings way I see some candy down in the student section there Dave you want to run down I got some time yeah let's go see what they have down there maybe a KitKat I like the kid can't okay here's on the outside hooker again he's already got a goal today abate is down there as well as Nick Adams and they do a good job in getting that ball back for Pine Creek well he sure did and the goalie coming out putting his arm up in the air again young just saying hey that ball went out of play blow the whistle let's get a goal kick out of this there's a good shot of the moon out here Colorado Springs tonight beautiful night for soccer on an absolutely beautiful playing field brand-new field here's a good look at it Academy is young what's this back into play Seaquest and Bishop working hard trying to keep that ball for the Eagles sequence comes away with it but man they are just being hounded just wave after wave of cadet defender at this point doing has it stripped away Frey Frazier and here's frost frost thought about sending it in to Bishop but he'll back it up and that's a good good choice by Kline Creek let's take the time still 24 and a half minutes left and this has been their game the whole night tonight they've send it back to 2 will Jones and he takes his time and there's 2 still plenty of time left in this one Joe sends it forward trying to get it to Bishop and that's Trey Mossman over on the side there number 7 taken away look at a bait it's inside Bishop but John's walled is right there Pine Creek continuing to hustle down here quickly up comes Frasier gets it over to frost frost could it take his time might send this one in there he does so but that's an easy say for Beatty is he had Bishop on the other side I think you he wanted him to cut looked up at him right there and said caveman just come yeah I did didn't have a whole lot of options he he had a wing down to his left a guy coming down the middle but both were taken away by the defenders of air academy nowhere to go with it so he just dumps it in on goal Oh Jones now there Frasier sends it in there had bishop inside couldn't get it to him here comes see quest sequence with a little bit of room inside can he push it to the outside now sends it to the middle and a nice job kicked out of there by Jeff new backer for the cadets as though that was certainly some noise being made by Seaquest sure was good play by new Bakker and boy sequence was just a man on a mission right there when he got that ball on his foot he just went straight down the middle of the field went around a couple of blue jerseys about a nice play my new Bakker to kick that ball out of play and we have a card here the official yep we got a yellow card on Andrew Hess I believe or was it on doing I'm not sure Hess is on his way out some that leave it's on Andrew Hess not sure maybe it was a comment made the officials quick to hold up the yellow card and off goes Andrew Hess so we've got a corner kick very few corner kicks tonight but this is a corner kick for frost mitch frost the senior defenseman for the Eagles and you can see down inside pine creek trying to get position in there Trey Mossman is right inside the box and into the game for the cadets Gavin Garrett Johnson senior midfielder comes in interesting setup here for Pine Creek frost sends it in and that one's blocked right away by English and out of bounds so not much doing on that corner kick but they will retain possession Shawn Fraser comes over that frost once it nope Fraser is gonna throw it in based on that alignment they wanted a ball that was up in the air and English was standing right there just made a made an easy block on that one a ball that looked like they wanted it a little higher try to get something going up into the end of the box and they just weren't able to do it christian Sechrist was a man on a mission last time this time gets it taken away English nice play there gets it forward to Fatih is doing bad doing knocked out of bounds by Fraser Kate it's will keep it has quickly back into the game after that yellow card pushes it forward again kicked out by Fraser but with each of those touches the cadets gain about ten yards they keep moving it up the field and again with a two goal lead that clock just keeps ticking in the favor of Air Academy excuses were almost foul there was 22 minutes but now we're under 22 minutes would this be the second half of the second half Dave you're exactly right okay thanks push it ahead here come the cadets get by Jones there's a kick and a nice job defensively by the Eagles but they're gonna get the foul on the inside on Jones and it's gonna be another free kick for the cadets and they have been dangerous tonight on these that was Gavin Garrett Johnson that just came into the game and I think he was held on the play that's what led to that foul that was called take a look at it right here there's Gavin Garrett Johnson comes around maybe that's what the call was look out for the gate as they have scored two free kicks tonight can they make it three Hess looks like he's going to take it big wall in front of him there and players ready to run net word shot this one is blocked but Hess gets it right back then Sam lifts it inside but the Eagles are right there to send it out quickly running Nick appleton gonna keep that ball in play and try and run it down but John's wall is there faster and gets it back to Beatty but this is exactly mine Creek wanted you go from a free-kick on one end to being in scoring position now here's a quick run forward Gavin Garrett Johnson right there and a good job defensively again by the freshman I'm really impressed by Nick Adams tonight for Pine Creek Ben Corley told us he was a good player good solid player as a freshman yeah they've gotten quality minutes from from those freshman five of them on this varsity roster and they're playing a lot and Adams started the game a couple of guys that have come in and seen some quality minutes and you like you said Brian we know Air Academy has a good team a great program undefeated state champions last season but this Pine Creek team they've been very impressive the way they played especially playing together as a team with so many new faces on this club and Pine Creek is a 518 air Academy a for a team not a lot of difference between those two levels here in Colorado look out quickly ahead Appleton comes in babies right there and OH Appleton tumbles over him but what a great play by Thomas Beatty fantastic job coming out and playing that ball as well as John's Walt back there certainly does here's a good look at that takes a lot of courage to to go down when you've got two guys running at you full speed with with cleats and shin guards and knees coming all at you and baby goes down covers it up and keeps him out of danger Peters turns on this one Eagles now they keep putting that pressure on Sun Seaquest try to move it ahead to Peters couldn't get it show now gets it to Seaquest ooh quick turn Peters runs it down on crease gonna keep the pressure on see Chris keeps trying to turn in a great job by hat so far and the rest of the year Academy defenders as its pushed gold word by new Bakker sent out by Beatty Peters now running it down and Pine Creek trying to change the side of the field they do so Trey Mossman to see quick sequence lifts it for Mossman Mossman is there but so are three k hats John's Walt sends it out only good defenses they just all collapsed to the middle one white jersey three blues all around them leaders to show back on the outside cut off by schwanke shrinky battles Seaquest and now dylan Cornejo sends it up trying to look for if fatty is doing but frazier is having none of it Pine Creek got to get something going now thinking but it's amazing how quickly momentum can change if they happen to poke one in there it's anybody's game well and they've had a couple of chances to of it got some balls in deep there was one right off the the face was that hiss yes yes yes yes that one looks like he's okay shook it off whoo that's for sure and here comes Garrett Johnson Gavin Garrett Johnson moving ahead quickly back his atoms tried to touch it over to Cornejo and it's cut off by pine creek moved ahead by caleb dodge who had a really good chance at a goal in the first half here comes christian seek whis with a head on it runs in babies right there I tell you I'm impressed by Thomas Beatty not only just you know he comes in of course he's a state champion goalkeeper but he's just so cool and calm he really is it and you know he just sets the tempo for him back there and then he's also got a big leg so he can he can change the field quickly he does it all back there he makes the saves he's calling the shots and then when he gets a chance to put a foot into it he certainly can do that doing on the far side sends it out this is schwanke gets by Cho nice push ahead look out here's that he's doing got it that doing first goal of the year make it 3 nothing air Academy it was a matter of time for fattiest doing and as well as he can handle the ball he dribbles it right through a bunch of white jerseys we'll take a look at it right here just splits three guys puts the right foot into it sneaks up past Eli Young who has who has had a good game on his own but that time Thaddeus doing and to see him celebrating right there with his goalie Thomas Beatty a couple of seniors celebrating doing makes it 3-0 and I think it was schwanke who got the ball to him if I could stand corrected maybe our replay machine operator can look back on that for me but if that's the case then both shrinky and doing had a goal and an assist in this game yeah and both have combined on the last two goals that was schwanke that scored off at doings free-kick that was in the 50th minute and then that one right there off the foot of doing that to roll that back quite a ways to to look at that assist cuz doing did all the heavy lifting and finished it off as well did Jimmy kinship a key in the game for Pine Creek and up comes a Shawn Frasier Frasier sending it goal word with Beatty right there and it was it's verified Eden schwanke with the assist for the cadets that ball it's gonna go wide but Pine Creek keeps coming back Nick Appleton and I think the thing that Ben Corley's got to be happy with tonight I know you're losing 3 to nothing but this teams literally sounds like it's thrown together because we mentioned coming in 16 players gone from last year's team that's a lot it really is and you're playing with a goalkeeper who who played just 18 minutes all of last season his first year as a starter I thought he's played very well and you know the 2-2 free kicks were the first two goals that were scored by air Academy and then a great player by a great play by doing that's that's how they've gotten their goals but I think Pine Creek has looked pretty good tonight and they certainly have Carter Esterly gets it to abate and on the side there's a ball sent in looking for Appleton Frazier's down there he'll go down no call and it'll be a goal kick for air Academy it's good look at Thomas Beatty and he is just gonna take his time with this one he'll let his his players get in position no reason to rush as we approach 15 minutes left in this one lady sends it out of their doing gonna send it hi Cornell we're gonna run it down he's got a hooker with him down there frost though doing a great job defensively gets it to his teammate who boots it out of there now doing gets a head on it the cadets can try and play this one out 14 and a half minutes and don't you think for a second that the cadets are gonna relax a little bit against these pine creek Eagles they want to make sure they don't give up a goal tonight frost goes down look out here's hooker inside Eli young was on his guard and the Eagles get it out of there English brings it down now he'll send it right back inside will Jones tries to play it with his foot maybe ill-advised there's a shot it's gonna be wide that by Jeff knew Bakker the sophomore midfielder for the cadets 14 minutes now left in this one good look there at Neubauer as he heads off substitution is made Cameron hooker comes back into the game young plays it over to frost for Austin Jones have been playing it on this left side of the back most of the evening for the Eagles see if they can't push it up the right side a little bit cut off and back in their schwanke looking for a second assist of the night that gets in inside and another goal by guess who that doing doing from schwanke I guess we got to get used to saying that but well a nice play by schwanke just the the one touch right to the middle of the field doing pounces on it two goals and assists tonight for doing and he just dissed Dinks it right past the goaltender young came out to play him but not a whole lot he could do on that one right there doing gets the goal he scored the last two goals for the cadets I'm not the greatest soccer player in the world but if I'm on the field for the cadets I'm gonna do my best to push the ball towards that guy number seven absolutely yeah just give it to him and get out of the way boy is he a good player he's he and he can do it all we've seen him play up in the air with his head a couple of good head balls in the midfield he plays out on the edge he plays down the middle there's a there's a good look at seven right there three points on the night you know it's funny you read the paper tomorrow you'll see Air Academy wins it by whatever score it's four to nothing right now a 13 minutes left and you look at the byline and you'll see that doing has two goals and assists but Dave all that happened in the last what eight nine minutes well and similar the last year's game last year was a 6-0 Air Academy win but as Ben Corley told us before the game it was a better game than that it was a tight game it was 0-0 with about 30 minutes left in the game and then a couple of mistakes by by Pine Creek and Academy capitalized and a little bit of the same tonight they've added a couple here in this second half exactly and we don't want to be homers for either one of these teams they're both district 20 teams when hats off to Ben Corley squad they've played better they deserve a better outcome and a four to nothing score at this point well yeah it's you're right when people do look at this score to morrow like you said they'll see what what daddy is doing did but they're gonna look and say oh geez Air Academy blew him out that was not the case this this is a pretty good hockey pretty good soccer game hockey soccer hockey soccer same sort of scores in that game yeah the cadet faithful love Anika's Matt Stoltenberg senior midfielder is in the game now number 16 also in the game Dylan Harley for the cadets number 17 and in the game Alex Nolan for Pine Creek he wears number 17 as well these two teams back in action next week with a couple of other big non-conference games air Academy playing Boulder another 518 Boulder fourteen and two last season they went to the second round of the state tournament and Pine Creek they'll take on Castle vo another team that went to the second round of the 5-8 tournament they'll play them on Tuesday how about Espinoza and just they're not afraid to play anybody in Caddy me in for a you're playing you come out of the box playing - very good 5a teams and then you come out and play three for a team's all got to the final eight last last season with your next three games so tough schedule coming up for both of these teams over the next few weeks caleb dodge could not chase that one down for pine creek it'll be cadet ball and baby's gonna get the gold kick send it over to John's well we got a whistle we have another sub coming in the game baby we'll set it back down good look at the senior keeper right there busy in the first half he had six saves in the first half of this one not quite as active in the second half as an Academy did a much better job in the midfield and have scored three goals in the second half kitch gets that ball over to dodge and they'll be running on the outside a miss played ball by Pine Creek Adams over there and the cadets quickly up the field the other way Schwing key again this time goes down and gets the call Aiden schwanke the goal and two assists tonight's lit draw and fouls as well as he sets that one up right on the 20-yard line there's a kick inside and Young's just gonna let that one go take the extra ball and you're gonna play this back into there as we are into the eighth eighth of the game could see Aiden schwanke just kind of swings his arm at the knot the error right there he knew he wanted that ball to be on net he had some bodies down low and sent it just Y to the cage schwanke gets ahead on this one Isaac's comes back with it and Jung is there to play it boy your Academy just will not call off the dogs but of course it's uh players that don't get an opportunity to play too often that are out there trying to score a goal Dylan Harley and Matt Stoltenberg now comes ahead look at doing just kind of minding his own business in the middle of the field there Gavin Garrett Johnson tried to chase it down Kinch gets it hungry can't keep control of it on the sidelines and we've got another substitution back into the game for the cadets is hassan and rupa sawn and out of the game he's doing no doing is still in my bat Stoltenberg matt Stoltenberg went off so he just came in for a couple of minutes yeah but back into the game Parker's sonned is into the game as well for the cadets as bassam and now another player coming in as Andrew Hess will come out and Kelton Hooker takes his place a couple of new names that we've called a couple of guys that also started the gamer are still in good chance with a lot of those those new players that don't get a chance to to play a whole lot especially with a narrow Academy team that is in so many close games throughout the season they get a chance here to get a few minutes since the midfield by young Kinch tried to grab it and he will get it back from Seaquest nice push ahead there by Matt abate brother of Justin who's played most of this game on the backside for the Eagles now let's push down to bounds by Hassan kitch oh good ball handling but then out of control a little bit by Carter Esther Lee tries to get it back but the cadets will keep this one seven and a half minutes now for nothing Air Academy I would say this is a good start to defending that for a championship oh yeah absolutely and he look you look back I mean again last season they they won 20 games they won six one goal games ten of those wins came in games when they won by three or more goals and that's the situation we have here the center Academy team pretty comfortable in just about any situation over the last few years tight games games that get a little out of hand they've they've been pretty good in every situation a Shawn Frazier doing a good job there for the Eagles keeping possession of that ball gets pushed around by Shawn but nothing doing he kept possession get it into Esterly this one's up look out dangerous situation there with mr.

doing and they'll give it to the cadets excuse me the Eagles young will come out to play it Eli Young the junior goalkeeper going despite those four goals he gave up tonight I thought he's played a heck of a game and we mentioned their starting goaltender last season he graduated eli young just came into one game last season in reserve played 18 minutes and I thought he's played a heck of a game especially in that first half he was under fire several times when Air Academy got out in transition and Eli young was there to make a pile of saves early in this game Mitch frost with the throw in for the Eagles gets it into Kinch trying to keep possession of it and that foot was a little high but they're gonna give it to the Eagles saying he was pushed eh was pushed so it's gonna be a free kick here for frost and you better believe the Eagles would love to get one between the pipes see Chris Esterly and frost talked about it sequa Strunz off Esterly thinking about it we'll see which one takes this kick Frost waits for sequence to get over there and now he's gonna lift it sends it goal word nice punch out by Beatty good job defensively there Matt abate runs it down nice move sends it right back in but Beatty is there no Eagles running towards the ball oh and a good look at Thomas Beatty again what a nice play is as he came up there was traffic all around if those goalkeepers keepers go up and try to catch it sometimes they're not able to in traffic he just went up both fists punched it out about 25 yards Kinch now back to Matt abate the sophomore justin is the senior of the abate brothers frost and frazier playing it back there as Jones is now out of this game getting the rest like game well played for the Pine Creek defender Hooker has it taken away by Matt abate he pushes it forward trying to get it to seek wished here Academy pretty much playing back defensively now I could do that the rest of the game if they so choose a song with the ball in the middle he's got runners nice job quick quick feet by Jackson Isaacs who's been all over the place defensively for the Eagles as well sure has and that ball got down a little low you could hear the the cadet student section come alive they've been pretty quiet recently but they got that ball down in the box and student section came alive and are we gonna get a corner kick out of this I believe Cameron hooker is gonna go over to take it and we're gonna have a goalie change for Pine Creek I believe that's Gabe hull coming into the game for the Eagles taking over for Eli Young who Kerr sends this ball up high and out of play off across the in line so Gabe hull will have his first chance to put foot to ball here in this game another one of those five freshmen on this Pine Creek varsity team he'll he'll get a few minutes and coaches will get a look at him in game situations got away about the cadets Parker's sund and Dylan Harley in there playing the ball for the cadets Kinch went down Eagles get the ball there's the touch ahead by Esterly maybe too quick for his teammates who weren't quite set up a Shawn Frazier tries to get it hooker Kelton hooker couldn't control it as well Frazier has to run that one down as the clock continues to wind down towards the end of this game and the cadet faithful start the I believe that we will win chance it might be pretty safe at this point under three minutes left sometimes you hear that song a little too early sometimes you hear try the beginning of the game is zero zero and that's good because you're showing confidence in your team but you can pretty much have confidence now yeah I think so here's one to catch kids trying to run this one down he's got some good feet still got it Oh tried to keep it alive but a good block down there and they're gonna get the corner kick out of this one I think we have a goalie change as well for air Academy that looks like it's Addison Cain that has come in for Thomas baby did Jimmy cancer did a great job there and Nick Adams is gonna have the corner kick for the Eagles and we'll see if the cadets can keep them off the scoreboard yeah it's equus down there another taller player is Alex Nolan and Carter Esterly Enoch goes it's on the ground Esther Lee tried to get it nice block by Esther Lee but it's again kicked out still alive for the Eagles nice job Mitch frost he clears it and goes wide with the shot just trying to make something happen son quizzes Sechrist says great job it really was and they did a nice job of just keeping that ball inside trying to get anything in a and a good turn good shot right there by Frost and into the game travis ty grant junior here comes sequence got the coal and pine creeks loving that one sequence ran it down he wants the ball they just put in Travis Tygart junior in goal and Pine Creek gets the goal and there's a look at Travis Tygart jr.

he is a freshman too much pressure when christian Seaquest a veteran player running in on you get a look at right that right there sequa stepped in front of that that pass stolen takes it in unassisted and gets it in for the goal first goal that pine creek is scored on air Academy in two seasons Wow still four to one as we get to the final minute of play Tiger stays in goal for the cadets is both teams trying to get some other younger players some playing time Eagles still playing it tough but they're gonna give it to Air Academy on the far side of the field time continuing to run as you see on your screen there we're down to 34 33 seconds I'm Creek trying to maybe get another one pushing into head to Carter Esterly he keeps it alive and goes down balls gonna go across the in line and they're getting the official says no no yeah not at this point in the game goal kick yeah so we'll give it to Travis Tygart there's seven as the crowd counts down five four well you can hear him and that is it tiger it won't even put it in play and that will be the way we end this first game we hope you've enjoyed it here on 20 TV the Air Academy cadets have now on 21 games in a row they defeat the pine creek eagles four to one that'll do it from here Academy High School and the K dome our thanks to rob Parrish directing this show tonight Adam Drake Adam Parker also in the truck running the replay machine Jason Carter Tom Paul and Marquez on your cameras for Dave Toller I'm Brian German thanks for watching we'll see you next time on xx TV [Applause] you

good evening and welcome inside district 20 Stadium in Colorado Springs Colorado for district 20 high school football action tonight the Liberty Lancers playing host to the Sierra stallions in a non-conference football game hello everyone my name is Bryan German alongside me is Vince Greco and Vince we've got two teams that have brand new head coaches and pretty much brand new teams we're gonna learn a lot tonight about the Sierra stallions and the Liberty Lancers as you said very young new head coaches on the Sierra side Dre ursery didn't fall too far from the tree no five grad from Sierra but he's awfully ambitious and excited about his towns football team and on the other side coach Gossage too young teams tonight Brian yeah very young team Eric Gossage though not young as far as coaching that was 26 years coaching he's coached at Palmer he's coaches Sand Creek he's coasted at at Wasson and on down the line he's done a great job and he gave us his keys to the game what will the Lancers have to do to beat Sierra and here's a look at him I mean he says what does he say Vince when the turnover battle absolutely that's important in any game you play but tonight especially here at D 20 we saw it on special teams how many times do your coaches say we have to be great in all phases of the games be solid on special teams and play with effort and enthusiasm he was all smiles tonight before this game as you can see right there Brian his keyword today youth yes they lost 22 seniors on this team so they got a lot of players that haven't seen a lot of action his starting quarterback Dawson divorce key will tell you more about him later it started - basically a game and played a game and a half last season we are about to kick off price Kazuki sends it deep for the Liberty Lancers and back to receive it first Sierra is Demetrius long cuts it up inside the Lancers trying to stop him nice move got you back get some open field gets one blocker they're gonna call that a clinic and he is back up and almost to the 40 yard line but it's gonna come back because there was a clip on the play but a nice bit of running by Demetrius long of Sierra it really was he went one way came back reversed his field and a lot of times you can pick up good blocking when you reverse your field but as you saw clearly a block in the back and that will set the Stallions in a hole to start this game not the way coachers he wanted to start things nursery we mentioned dray ursery a 2005 graduate of Sierra high school and now he's the head football coach and he has played in college he's coached in college so he brings some knowledge to the sierra sidelines we asked him about offensive formations defensive formations and he said these kids are smart we're gonna adapt to whatever they're doing they may have to spread it out they may run a read option we're gonna have to wait and see like I said in the pregame Ryan this is all new to us and everybody in the stadium to young teams trying to make their mark early battle on that play and it was a lateral it went out of bounds and that's gonna take them back it's gonna be second down and 6 could call Vince second down at 16 so to ATO in the backfield along with Elijah Smith Smith wanted the handoff and there's another flag sometimes you see this in the first game of the year and this is the Stallions first game of the year as it is the Lancers lots of flags early on don't like seeing them there's the call it's a defensive penalty so it'll be second and 11 after the officials mark this one off call it second and 12 so Toby - aw - again lines up with Elijah Smith in the backfield he's got Burris and will burn out to the right and they hand it off up the middle and good defense there by the Lancers to close that one off quickly they were a swarm on that play and I like the creativity by Sierra they came back misdirection kind of a counter play and that's that option that read option that Coach ursery had talked about so now - ah - comes up on third and eight third and long we'll see what Liberty does on defense they come inside the handed outside to Smith and a nice tackle good job by Bryce Kisuke who came up from his cornerback position and makes the tackle great read by Kazuki as he comes up flying up there lowers her shoulders gets them ankle tackle and that will force thus the Sierra's aliens to punt another look at it here Kazuki went low that's in Elijah Smith high and it'll be the Stallions first punt of the game fourth and seven and that penalty really hurt him on the kickoff return because they were out close to the 40 yard line now the kick in the ball and this young man is standing on the 5-yard line preparing to punt the ball away very interesting return formation for the Lancers they have three deep two wide and a blocker in the middle and another flag thrown from the back judge way back and it's going to be a delay a game against the Sierra stallions and I would imagine that coach Gossage is gonna want to push him even further back and he will so it'll now be fourth and 12 and Desmond Eden will do the honors he does a lot for this football team for Sierra he plays running back he plays he's they split him out wide he plays linebacker and he also punts in interesting formation Dean Young sends it sky-high not much of gets a nice roll though and the Stynes are gonna down it but what great field position for the Liberty Lancers they're gonna start just outside the cierra 40-yard line not a great punt they are fortunate that that one rolled another 10 yards it looked like it was going to head out around the 30 and rolled another 10 yards but as you said Ryan the lancers already deep in stallion territory to start this game and let's look at the starters for the Lancer football team up front the big guys key re Kelly Christian Tucker Anthony J at center Jack shaver and Jaden berry tight end Chris Smith Musa penne and Bryce Kisuke Oh split out wide Dawson divorce keys your quarterback with Bryson Williams and Mike Cornelius in the backfield and they'll come out and it is not divorce key at quarterback a little throw there it's grant Scruggs lining up and they get it out to Dvorsky and he throws it high and it can't come down with it on the outside a little trick play right onto the bat for Coach Gossage and it's incomplete as they were trying to get the ball out there to Musa Panay let's look at it again take another look you just a little bit overthrown and it was a little bit loft under that ball that gave the defensive back see it wobble there a little bit of time to recover and knock that one away but we've got also a penalty against Liberty on their first offensive play so as you said it's been kind of sloppy here to start this that would be the fourth penalty and we haven't played three minutes here in the first quarter and that's a big penalty they're gonna take it all the way back it's gonna be second and 20 as a hold on the play in the backfield so now Dawson divorce key will be under center Scruggs out of there they came with a trick play on that but balls on the ground 1e the ball is on the ground Sierra's got it picked up and he could go on the run that is number 2 for the touchdown Elijah Smith boy he found some opening there that he couldn't find behind his own offensive line and that gives Sierra a 6 to nothing lead well we'll take another look at this we need to see who that defensive lineman was that fought through that gap broke it up number 45 for the Stallions that's ox plov a from Russia Russian student from Russia ox play gets through knocks that ball out of there just creates havoc and what a great job as Elijah Smith went in for the touchdown Ciara shocking Liberty right now because Liberty had such great field position big penalty and now a touchdown for the Stallions and in to kick it is Desmond Eden big crowd here tonight for liberty and they are quiet right now the extra point is blocked away by the Lancers and so it'll stay six to nothing the Lancers fort the extra point and they will come to the sideline and now we'll see what they can do with cierra having to kick off six nothing that's got to be a shocker for Coach Gossage but you see him out there saying hey guys get your heads up it's a long football game and it's gonna be a long season too for these Titans we mentioned they lost 22 seniors to graduation they have a stable of young players out here tonight so it's going to be a learning experience for both of these teams as this game wears on though you have to wonder about the depth of the Sierra stallions I think we counted before the game there's no more than 26 players on the sidelines for Sierra it's a warm night here at district 20 Stadium some of these guys have to play offense and defense so that may play a factor as we progress through this football game you mention 78 degrees out here district 20 Stadium and the wind's blowing from the south at about 5 to 10 miles per hour so Sierra will kick this off Desmond Eaton he is ready to kick it off and back for the Lancers is Musa penne he's the single man back to receive this kickoff Deaton approaches sends it high in the outsides and yes sierra illegal procedure they'll have to kick it again and I think Liberty knew that maybe Sierra is using a different player now not your standard kicker not just someone who kicks all day in practice in desmond eden he's kicking it short and they are ready to return this thing with musa penny penny is lined up at the 20 yard line so again the Lancers should end up with pretty good field position for their second possession of the first quarter and we'll see how the Lancers blocked this one he's got Scruggs isn't up back short kick and he's got it at the 23 brings it up across the 33 to the 40 he's got a cut he's got room across the 50 to the 40 picks up a block and gets inside the 30-yard line down to the 27 what a great return by Musa Pinay what a great return is right and you talk about watch right here boom what a quick burst of speed to get to the outside tries to pick up a block and a nice job of tracking down penny by number four Isiah will burn of the Stallions otherwise it's a 6 6 game Brice Kisuke was out there with a nice block on the outside good job by all those guys up front with big blocks Jack shaver among them make it happen uh getting musa penny to spring loose there and liberty is back in business at the 33 yard line but we got a flag excuse me we got a flag back at the 47 yard line and it may be coming back on a clip Wow I did not see that flag initially I think the grew out of the ground was like a yellow flower I didn't see it this is a big that's a tough penalty for Liberty they had the ball should have had it on inside the 25-yard line now they're backed up all the way to the 36 Wow big penalty still decent field position and check quick check of the cameras we've got nothing again did not see it we got a clip so now musa penny splits to the left and dawson divorce key gets under center he hands it off up front and right in there for the tackle big number 72 Jesse Alvarez comes right through for the Sierra stallions and so far that Liberty offensive line not looking too good and on the opposite side the defensive line for Sierra they've been in the backfield more than the Lancers running backs they are making a living back there that's only been two plays I get it but somebody's not picking up these offensive lineman for the Sierra stallions Cyrus pelt comes off and now this time they go with penne and Smith and Kisuke split to the left Dawson divorce key with one to the right gets it to Musa penne he breaks the tackle cuts it inside try to get at the 40 yard line basically gets back to the original line of scrimmage and it's gonna be third down call it nine here's another look at it very quick reaction by the Stallions nice play call by Liberty littles inside slant and penne takes it back outside we can tell early on we saw the electric kickoff and they want to get the ball in the hands of penny cuz he makes things happen once he gets it in his hands nice short pass for Dawson divorce key may be worn him up warm him up into the game this time he's back to pass again sending it deep down the field got the big man Smith down there try to get up and get it but it's knocked away by Burris for Sierra good job defensively as Tristan Burris was back there first one of the players that their coach talked about pregame he's one of the captains on this team again I think just a little too much loft on this football kind of a jump ball maybe the Lancers were looking at that as a punt situation no harm done if it's intercepted Chris Smith had eight receptions for 90 yards last year that put him at 5th on the team but like you said losing 22 seniors they lost five of their top 6 rushers five of their top 6 receivers so literally very very young football team and it looks like now Musa Penny's gonna go back and try and punt this ball away see what a great option here he is going to punt it but on any broken play this is the kid that has the moves we got a flag before they even snap the ball in the backfield Ciara nope that's against the Lancers again five more yards back a lot of penalties that's the fourth penalty called against the Liberty in this football game and as I said we've we've got 8 minutes and 6 seconds to go so now it's going to be fourth and 14 I believe penny back to punt he is a multi-purpose athlete we've seen him catch it return punts now he's going to punt it I don't think we can see this too early here in this game I don't think they would fake it but he's a great option he can get out and make things happen and Elijah Smith oh there he comes moussah penny and they were not expecting that he still needs 10 yards to get the first down cuts it up inside and gets it and the Lancer fans go crazy as Musa penny gets that ball right to midfield for a first down and I have to believe that's a design play he didn't look to pump this ball at all look at that there's a high snap brings it down and he is gone makes a nice move here avoiding the tackle of number 4 from the stands that was Isaiah Wilburn just enough to get to midfield and a first down huge play for the Lancers right there Musa penny on fourth down mark it down he did a great job picking up about 18 yards on fourth and 14 so now it's first and ten ball right at midfield split out left a Driss Hickman and we have a timeout called on the field by the Lancers Bryant timeout by the Lancers we'll keep it right here in chalk Erik Gossage 1 or woody maybe he saw something the Sierra defense he didn't like there but I'm sure he's probably just trying to get his team to just calm down a little bit they've had too many mistakes so far too many penalties they've had a turnover returned for a touchdown again I think that was a designed fake punt but the snap was high penny had to bring that ball down he made something green 18 yards and more importantly maybe coach Gossage is talking to that offensive line about getting a helmet on that defensive line of ceará because they are tough they are not allowing the Lancers to set up anything offensively so far that the big man up front for Sierra have been dominant on the line so we'll have to see maybe coach Gossage who was the line coach for these Lancer team for the last two years now he's the head coach you better believe that he's not happy with their offensive line so far nope and that was a quick timeout I think what he wants to see here as you said calm things down settle it down get down the field it you don't have to get it in one play we've seen Liberty try to go deep on the opening play and just a few moments ago just a few yards at a time let's see if they can get a sustained Drive going here they hand it to the full-back up the middle he gets two yards on that one Mike Cornelius would excuse me that's not Mike Cornelius that was Caleb Shelton's who's a junior running back five five hundred and fifty pounds small for a fullback in there but he gets two yards in comes Kisuke with the play now getting out a lot of room up front I like the quick play right hitting that fullback right off the center see if Bryson Williams gets his first carry of the game here divorce key under Center gets it to Williams he cuts it up inside nice move gets hit and he goes down just shy of a first down and that's the kind of running the coach Gossage wanted to see a nice hole up front watch this time a nice cross block by the offensive line as they trap across opening up that hole in a near first down for liberty I like that Bryant cuz it's very quick just making that tackle off guard play very quick and I believe Ciara called a timeout this time and the Lance Rose will get another talking to gosh it stays away from his offense this time bless his coordinators talk to the team and it's gonna be third and 2 it's like a long 2 though events so the way they've been running the football with the absence of that cosplay it's this is a tough call here for the Lancers I'd like to see him do maybe the same thing again you saw the trap block from the guard coming across taking the nose tackle and it was very quick that just allowed momentarily a brief seam for Desmond Eden to get through there one of the captains on this Liberty football team I would not be surprised if they go right back to it again Dawson divorce key brings him up to the line and a split to the left Hickman to the right to give it up the middle and he's hit hard right court he did not get the first down they were gonna say he was down about a yard shy it's gonna be fourth and one and a big hit up the middle as Liberty could not get the first down same play to the right side this time and no hesitation by coast gosh is he's going for it here take another look you saw the linemen and inside trap and a nice tackle looked like that was number two Elijah Smith who not only stripped the football but made the tackle yeah he's been all over the place had that touchdown earlier on the fumble recovery and return so Dawson divorce key comes up Williams behind him and divorce keep the quarterback sneak and it looks like they will have enough if you listen to the Liberty players they got a first down let's see if the officials think I think they got it and I think the help of one of the running backs pushing the Lancers quarterback to Dvorsky up through that hole take another look you see number seven put his shoulder down Bryson Williams helped in divorce key get through there and picking up that first down so first down Liberty took him four downs to do it you get four downs they give you four downs Dawson divorce key brings them up this time a single setback he's got trips left one to the right another flag and another flag and I believe that's gonna be Bryson Williams who was split in the slot who moved a little bit early and it's illegal procedure it's gonna be a five-yard penalty first and 15 Lancers gotta quit seeing those hankies on the field well they've had five penalties that's four more than they have first downs Wow that math is not gonna win you many football games Brian I'm glad you're doing the math tonight give you a little break yeah Ciara's to field goals again trips left Dawson under center he goes back to pass gets a nice block lofts it out here to a wide-open player in Williams he makes a nice move oh it cuts back twice and gets inside the 15 yard line loses the ball look out Sierra's got it running it in the end zone and he's gonna come out and that ball is still alive and tackled down in the end zone number 8 for Sierra that's Conner Burgess who came up with the fumble recovery it's gonna be Sierra ball wow what a play Bryce and Williams is a hero to goat this is little nice cutback Oh Desmond Eden the great move great block but watch here he switches the ball to the inside arm you want to keep that on the outside arm and towards the sidelines just as probably a youth mistake and then the ball is scooped up second huge costly turnover for the Lancers Bryson Williams who's not gonna sleep well tonight if things don't turn around for the Lancers but the Lancer defense has Sierra in a pickle right now because the Stallions have the ball down at their own 10-yard line and we'll see what Tobey tois two can do with the ball let's get Elijah Smith in the backfield comes with him hands it off the burst burst gonna take it around the left hand side Musa Penta can't get him first with some space gets a first down out across the 20-yard line he's still on his feet and now the Lancers are gonna wrangle him down over there but not before Burris got the first down watch the block on the outside to seal this on the defensive end so they're going wide right there they suck that guy back in and then it's electrifying on the outside and good hard running by the Stallions Tristan Burris - ah - looking for more 450 left first quarter they'll hand it up inside to Smith this time he bounces it outside look out getting around the Lancers and he's knocked out out of bounds it looks like maybe his chin strap came popping off a big hit but he pops right up and he's clapping in the faces of the Lancers yeah the big hit put on here it looks like that's grant Scruggs another captain on this Liberty football team let's see what happens here as he lowers the boom to Lancer players come in great thing about a hit like that everybody's okay now the officials are talking amongst themselves well they threw a flag because I think they were saying unsportsmanlike conduct and I'm not sure the sea-air player got up and was clapping in the face of the Liberty Lancer right and then Scruggs came up with a little like chest bump to steins and here's the call by the official a unsportsmanlike it's gonna be against yep Elijah Smith of Ciara and that's tough he made a nice run had nothing inside and then comes out there trying very hard to you know keep these games under control Elijah Smith a 15-yard penalty that was huge as it'll now go way back it's gonna be second down here's this again there he is clapping behind Scruggs his head right that's what you sculpt or unsportsmanlike you and I are a little bit old-school hey pretend you've done it before and clunky B yeah get up get back to the huddle they give it to Smith again here he comes up the middle and he takes a Lancer for a ride and that tackle made by Jacob waters but not before he picked up another five yards back step right there he follows that block because the blind was taking him inside he really sees the field wealth does Elijah Smith just 5 8 145 pounds - ah - snaps they're gonna come to the optional left nice fake cuts it up inside gets another first down for Sierra and after that big unsportsmanlike conduct penalty that is a huge first down Sierra's starting to get a little rhythm on offense good blocking by the line and they it's just kind of like that read you take that right down the line of scrimmage until you find that seam and then you break it up Sierra doing a good job of reading the Liberty defense right now - ah - back in that shotgun formation this time is Deaton tripping the backfield with him he gives it to Desmond Eden Deaton up inside and this time the Lancers are ready for the run as he gets taken down looked like the initial contact might have been by Zachary Furman who got him by the ankles to slow him down and Jaden Smith helped to bring him down the big junior nose guard so - aw - now look at it second and eight with Desmond Eaton in there two receivers left - to the right - wha - checks it out looks back pumps once goes deep got a man back their butts Burris he's got the ball what a big catch in another big play for the Sierra stallions it sure was there's a lot of air under that ball to bat first man we gotta read it like an outfielder in baseball actually it was Demetrius long under there sorry I thought it was a nine not a three but nice throw by - ah - and here comes to me Trias long with a big catch no I stand corrected the first is it was Burris my bat Burris having a huge game - aww - with the snap Desmond Eaton takes it up the middle he's cut it inside the 20 and he's still on his feet look at Oh staying on his feet the big man going down to the 15-yard line taking hits all the way but staying up that's video game stuff take a look at this one hit one missed tackle spin move BAM and then he's gonna keep going he almost broke it but said hit say a shirt tackle by the Lancers it saves another touchdown and - aww - in there still Desmond Eaton in the backfield he gets it cuts it up inside once again and the Lancers are right there and a big hit comes in from the side but number 17 Christopher ko means as two Lancers were holding them up and now we've got in two injured players on the field Lancers down Desmond Eden's gets up and he's taken away by to a 2 but the Lancer is still down on the field is there a rule in high school and I'm not being funny here if you take your helmet off on the field is that a penalty you do you have to leave it on well when the ball is dead it just depends I'm not sure but I'll tell you what we're gonna take a break we'll come back we'll find out who the Lancer is down there let you know how he's doing right after this on xx TV you back at district 20 Stadium Logan schlepp of the Lancers was able to walk off the field of his own power so he is on the sidelines looks a little banged up though Ciara back in action second and 8 - aah - takes the snap got Smith back in the backfield he's gonna throw to the end zone got a man touchdown Ciara that is number 4 Isiah will burn with the score that makes it 12 to nothing stallions huh he was wide open great play action by the stallions Ciara on that drive 2 for 2 passing take another look here all kinds of time just drops back surveys that secondary and boom wide open is this Diane's Isaiah Wilber now it's just a really nice drive by the Stallions Sinese will go for two - wha - cuts inside and there's a flag right at the line of scrimmage that might back it up and we'll see what that is but here's another look at the touchdown all kinds of time for that quarterback - aw - and a wide open Wilburn in the back of the endzone great job by Mike Byram running the camera down there 420 TV great shot always helps out when they throw the football right of your lines so - ah - now in there with Smith in the backfield he's got two to the left two to the right looking for the two-point conversion back to pass gonna run it and the Lancers snuffed that out nope got out of there drop the ball picked it back up now a man in the end zone got it the two-point conversion is good for Burris and the Stallions are shocking the Liberty Lancers right now make it 14 to nothing yeah they really have and what a move put on by that quarterback to watch you he is dead to rights three Lancers thought they had him wrapped up he bounces to the outside and standing right on the corner of the end zone for a two-point conversion that captain Christian Burris and just like that it's 14 to nothing too 17 to go in the first quarter the Stallions have capitalized on to Liberty turnovers and turned him into touchdowns so ah - just the escape ability to get out of there and then find Burris in the endzone for the two-point conversion coach Gossage told us before the game I said what are you worried about about Sierra and he said their athleticism and that is showing it right there - wha - just breaking tackles we've seen Deaton break tackles we've seen Smith break tackles we've seen Smith and - ought to break ankles coach Gossage said he could not pinpoint one person over there he said they have athletes yep and we're seeing that tonight you certainly are desmond eden ready to put this ball in play Lancers come out Musa penny would like to have a big return without a clip this time Lancers really penalties and mistakes have hurt Liberty so far but there is so much time left in this football game still 217 left in the first I wouldn't kick this ball anywhere near penny we saw how explosive this kid can be hits him right in the numbers at the 22 yard line penny takes it to the 30 backs up a little bit comes forward and runs over a couple of stallions maybe out to the 35 yard line and that's where the Lancers will start Liberty's had great field position to start these drives tonight they've just shot themselves in the foot fumble return for a touchdown look like the Lancers gonna walk in for a score of their own fumble at the 5 yard line and then Ciara takes it the length of the field so the Lancers if they can just clean up the mistakes a lot of football to be played can get right back into this thing patience as you said there is a ton of time we have 3 plus quarters of football to go you don't need it all on one play just grind it down the field Dawson divorce key with trips right see if they run some kind of screen over there no they hand it off up the middle and here it comes cutting to the outside and diving across for the first down a great job by Caleb Shelton's the junior running back for the Lancers this is kind of what Sierra's been doing all night you get down the line you follow your blocks when you see that gap you turn it up the field and you go and that was a great play by Liberty Calif Shelton's with a nice run on that one he's been he's gotten the most ground rushing the football for the Lancers tonight and they come back this time and go trips left Musa penny and Smith out there with Kazuki Dawson looking that way throws it almost intercepted as penny was trying to come in and get the screen pass and a good look there for the young man who just scored the touchdown Isiah will burn to come up and try and pick that thing off we talked about how many two-way players there are for the Sierra stallions Wilburn one of them and obviously for good reason he's making plays on both sides of the football Wilburn Burris Smith D Dhin well when you got only 26 guys on your roster a lot of them are gonna play a lot put it that way now we got the traditional tailback in there Bryson Williams he gets the handoff but he is smothered right away for a loss of two and a good job again by that cierra defense 45 and 51 doing a great job in there Tyrell Valentine and ox we've a move a called his name a lot tonight one of the things that the Lancers are I think are doing a pretty good job of is they really are switching up their offensive sets we've seen trips right we've seen trips left we saw the traditional power I on that last set just following the full-back through that two gap on the right hand side Dawson back-to-back to throw it again and it's picked off and here comes Sierra again to the house no one in his way touchdown for Wilburn his second of the day one offense one defense unbelievable the Liberty crowd in front of us right now is shocked he read this from the snap of the football look at the eyes at the quarterback boom perfect timing and Wilburn is off to the races you're not going to catch him he almost had a two plays ago this time he makes sure that's the third turnover and a third score off of a turnover for the Stallions so the Sierra stallions shocking Liberty right now 20 to nothing they will try and kick it again this time although they will go for two again and a tough kick by deeding the first time so we got Smith in the backfield along with - ah - to watch it with the snap looks looks now he's gonna run around in there he goes down and a good job defensively by number 51 for liberty Jack shaver jr.

defensive lineman linebacker take another look at the touchdown just a perfect read by the defensive back and a little jaunt into the endzone what is coach Gossage telling his players now on the sidelines he's got to get him up he's got to get this team fired up he said you know one of the keys of the game he was trying to get him enthusiastic have more enthusiasm than ciarán right now it's tough to have some enthusiasm down 20 points you down three touchdowns well yeah and talking to the head coach of ceará before the game Dre ursery he talked about his offense he talked about his defense but I got the impression it was offensively where he thought that they would really shine tonight and they've done well but their defense is really stymied the Lancers here in this first quarter you're right Vince they had some mistakes obviously but the more costly mistakes are the turnovers you want to win the turnover battle they're not winning in right now again I'll reiterate the fact that there is a ton of time left in this game cierra cannot get complacent Liberty has to take care of the football that's the bottom line and I think right there that's a smart move by the stance and do not kick that ball away and let Moussa pene have a chance to jam and Henry came up with that ball and got it right there so the Lancer is a 35 yard line if your coach ursery you don't care they've had good field position all night long and you've stopped them you've come up with turnovers and points off those turnovers there's two defensive touchdowns Fitz I'm kind of speechless at that I if you would have told me that ending in the first quarter alone yeah Stein's playing that three-four defense nice trap play this time by Liberty whoo nice hit and I like the running good job by Caleb Shelton's who's been everything for the lancer running game today and just an unstoppable here he's just will not go down well he's got that low center of gravity only five five a hundred and fifty pounds he gets low to the ground and it's tough to bring that kid down it's about your size just a skosh taller than that but not much so divorce key under center again Shelton's in the back field trips right divorce key back to pass they get it to penning pen a nice move steps inside gets a first down in the cross midfield in to Ciara territory and that's where the Lancers want to be in the fans still with him they're clapping they like that move by Musa penny take another look looks the field cuts outside and then just uses his speed to pick up that first down and 12 more yards desmond Eden with the tackle for Sierra so divorce key comes back up and again they'll go with william smith and penn a split out as trips they're either right or left this time they go to the right and we got a timeout into the end of the quarter 20 to nothing Ciara a head of Liberty will come back with a second quarter of this one you're watching high school football on 20 TV you Brian German and Vince Greco joining you from district 20 stadium we're gonna flip sides of the field and the Liberty Lancers hoping they can flip the scoreboard because right now they're down 20 to nothing but they are moving the football Dawson divorce key and company lining up on the left trying to get that ball into the end zone on the right side divorced he fits it up the middle this is Shelton Shelton's gets it to the 40 and another first down and suddenly the Lancers are clicking inside trap play again great job of blocking by the Lancers and this is what they have to do I've said it all night long you don't need a quick strike just take your five your 10 yards out of time March that ball down the field there are so much time in this game Liberty will come back in this football game I believe she I'm right there with you Eliza Schmidt Elijah Smith with the tackle on that one for Sierra and here we come williams smith and penn a split right divorce key hands it off again up the middle Shelton's and again gets hit but like yards after the hit for Shelton's tonight so far I'd say about 30 he just is a bull in a china shop lowers his shoulder and he is running hard he's get the stars and stripes on his arm there nice little sleeve is that a real sleeve is that it yeah that's her that's yeah it's called a sleeve right when you have a tattoo yeah oh that's a fake one okay I'm pretty sure it's a it's a real sleeve yeah okay divorce key under Center he's got Williams behind him this time Williams takes a pitch gonna come to the outside nice moves he tried to get it to the outside but maybe spent too much time in the backfield and the Stallions take him down swarming tackled by Sierra a lot of times when you see that power sweep either side of the field you've got to find a spot and turn it up should've done it right there but set goes outside and that allows the defense to string that play all the way out to the sidelines for a loss of 4 on the play Desmond Eden came up make that tackle second at 14 not where coach Gossage wanted his team to be right here but they are inside the 40 yard line I think I think he's a little gun-shy to try and throw it trips left Williams penny Smith out their divorce key under Center takes a snap looking that way finds penny no penny took his eyes off the ball went through his hands and incomplete they've run that play several times a little wide receiver screen out there penny cuts in if he caught that he probably could have gotten close to a first down yeah a lot of open field out there plus when you run that screen a wide receiver screen out left out of that trips formation you've got to instant blockers out there so if he gets by that first line of defense with his speed and his moves who knows what would happen there Bryce Kisuke brings the play in for the Lancers and this time they will go with just two wideouts to the right so you got Smith and penny to the right Williams and Kisuke to the left with Shelton's in the backfield on third and 14 divorce key back to pass goes deep almost intercepted once again as Kazuki tried to get that I think that was Tristan Burris who nearly picked this one off is that a number nine back there and if he does Brian that would be the third defensive touchdown of the night because there was nobody in front of him so fourth and 14 looks like the Lancers are gonna try and at least line up like they're gonna go for it nope Musa pene is back and he's counting he's a punter remember what he did last time he had no hesitation pulled down the high snap and he ran it for 16 yards and a first down I'm sure Ciara remembers that again a high snap this time he's gonna boot it out of there kicks it and it's fielded at the 2 yard line maybe wisely maybe unwisely but cutting it up inside a great move and Ciara still on the run what a great return for the Ciara stallions and that was Burris again so I if you could see me in the booth right about right now I am shaking my head why are you picking that ball up at the one-yard line the cardinal rule anything inside the 10 you let it go right yep but look at the athleticism again and the moves to get outside and was pene the punter the all-around player for liberté who brings him down in front of the Stallions bench actually you that was Connor Burgess number eight all these numbers look like to me sorry Vince sorry I apologize to you watching the Connor Burgess with the nice return there that was one of those don't don't don't okay go go go - ah - since Smith in motion now looks deep down the middle and it's intercepted finally some good for the liberty defense and it's Scruggs coming back tried to stiff arm a man and he is taken down by Burris look out the Lancer fans are crazy for grant Scruggs they needed something good to happen and Scruggs playing center field here the free safety reads the eyes of the quarterback ball was overthrown Scruggs knows what to do with it as he heads up field let Liberty fans on their feet maybe just maybe that's the spark that the Lancers needed and young football players I want you to see what Burris did on that play for Sierra Scruggs tried to stiff arm him and Burris said you're gonna give me your hand I'm gonna take it and hold him down with it smart move by the Sierra stallion so divorce key now lines up in the shotgun with Shelton's behind him and trips left this time divorce key looks that way had penny out there he's gonna go high in the air Penny's there can't bring it down and he is knocked hard out of bounds by Burris that was a hospital pass yeah we used to call that a barbecued rib ball the ball a little high and this is what's been happening all night for both of these quarterbacks divorce key sends it up high and it didn't it wasn't as bad as it looked and live action there takes a shoulder but still you don't want to be on the receiving end of that hit too often no no when the ball is taken that long to get somewhere and you've got to raise your hands in the air to catch it you're just like a sitting duck second down ten the Lancers have had so much success moving the football on the ground I'm surprised they're throwing it as much as they are so divorce key tough snap handles it looks inside for penny and overthrows him this time and divorce key looks a little bit harried right there it looks like he's worried more about the rush well a high snap to begin with so we had to bring it down and by the time he did the amazing thing about the stands are playing three four and they're getting a lot of pressure which is three interior lineman on divorce key so divorce key comes to the sideline gets the play it's gonna be third and ten Musa penne will go split left along with Smith the tight end and coming to the right is a Driss Hickman as well as Bryce and Williams could be a little draw here I got Shelton's in the back field behind divorce key divorce key gets a block from Shelton now finds Smith and again almost intercepted by Burris over there for Ciara Brian I think that divorce key and this offense is a little bit shell-shocked right now how quick the defensive backs are of these stallions they break on the ball like lightning fourth down the Lancers good thing there's lots of time left in this football game for Coach Gossage to get his team to settle down I wouldn't be surprised it may be put Scruggs in at quarterback you know Scruggs started the game at quarterback he wasn't listed as the starter but he took the first snap for this team got its divorce key you threw an incomplete pass and penny gets the punt away and this one is gonna go into the end zone so the stallions will take over way up the field and the Lancers will have to regroup once again 915 left second quarter 20 to nothing Ciara when we talked to coach Gossage before the game he talked about what a great athlete Scruggs was that he is the backup quarterback and I found it interesting at that time that he would point out that he's the backup quarterback Trent so my to your point we may see him at some time some period in this football game - ah - lines up in the shotgun desmond Eden behind him Deaton gets the call and goes up the middle and he has taken down a nice tackle there by jack shaver who's been making some good tackles for the answers tonight it's gonna be second down and nine Liberty gone or not excuse me Sierra keeping the ball on the ground coming off their first turnover the game which is an interception well coached ursery with a 20-point lead why not try and run some clock and they hand it to Smith coming to to the left and he Jukes two players but three more Lancers are there to bring him down a good job defensively for liberty that was a great job well if we look at that again I believe it's number 87 and 50 87 right there stayed home he did not fall for that reverse and it was an awesome job by Chris Smith another captain on this Liberty football team and gage Feldman comes up with the tackle that's Smith you're right staying home big number 87 now he comes on the Blitz he's looking for - a - he's got him from behind and he takes him down Chris Smith two big plays in a row for the Liberty Lancers and he just fought through that block you could see it coming from the outside watch the left of your screen here comes Smith big arms wraps him up and down goes the Stynes quarterback - ah - and how about Smith trying to bring down that big arm trying to force the turnover and I believe Toma - is still down on the field for Sierra we will take another break as the trainer's come out we'll tell you how Toby who's doing when we come back here watching high school football on xx TV you district 20 stadium Ciara stallions defeating Liberty 22 nothing here in the second quarter Brian German alongside Vince Greco and some good news but not great news for the Sierra stallions as their quarterback tobita watu was taken off the field didn't get there without some assistance and it looks like maybe his ankle turned under him there he was limping off the field severely and Vince you mentioned something there's only 36 players on this team and we look at the roster and we only see one with the letters Q and B by his name yeah that's a concern for the Sierra stallions and again you don't see a lot on that tackle but to watch who was down for an awful long time both teams trainers are out there working on him and he did limp off its gonna be fourth down for Sierra and I believe this is their first punt of the game mm I believe you're gonna stand corrected cuz Desmond Eden had kicked one earlier he's missed an extra point he's had two punts Desmond Eden tough snap picks it up he's gonna try and run with it and the Lancers right here bring him down and look out because the Liberty Lancers are gonna have the football at Sierra's 21 yard line I think Dean just took off because he didn't feel comfortable punting after the botched snap exactly he didn't have time there wasn't Lancer or two bearing down on him and he tried to make something out of nothing and then there's that number big 87 again we've called his name all night Chris Smith three big plays in a row by Chris Smith the senior tight end outside linebacker another great starting position for the Lancers inside the 20 yard line see if they've got some red zone work up their sleeve here divorce key under Center gives it to Shelton's he cuts it inside on the trap gets it in down to the 16 yard line give him a couple it's gonna be second at eight I tell you just get the feeling maybe it's cuz we're on the Liberty side of the field but you get the feeling that they can get a score in this game momentum is gonna make a huge mother clock continues to tick away in the second quarter they have it's very important for the Lancers if not on this Drive but in this quarter to put some points on the board they have to go into this locker room with a little confidence knowing that they can move the ball against the sierra defense smith and penn a split left Hickman and Williams split to the right and Shelton's is behind divorce keys in the shotgun takes a snap comes to Shelton side got a man he's got Smith got Musa penny touchdown Liberty flag went down but it looked like it was after he went into the end zone we'll have to wait and see if that cleans up it looks like the Lancers believe it was against Sierra we'll see what the officials have to say as you look at it one more time all right so on two previous players like this they've taken the ball outside and it's been picked off great job by the Lancers coaching staff and divorce key to bring the ball back to the middle of the field that gets those defensive backs over committed and let's see what the call is the official illegal man downfield oh boy that's gonna bring it back another costly costly penalty for the Lancers a man take those six points off the board and back Liberty up mmm that's tough every and the flight came in so late it came in after the play after the pass had already been completed oh you know how sometimes things get stuck in your pocket Vince apparently offensive lineman was well up the field well let's see if the Lancers can regroup and do it again same kind of play slant cookie pass interference and then okay and they're gonna get it Kazuki was back there and a couple of stallions and flags are popping up everywhere after that one but I'll tell you what he at Brice and Williams wide open on the right side running clear into the end zone here's another look at it just a little overly aggressive his number nine for the Stallions Bryce Kisuke was down there and we're gonna get a huge play right there because that was second and fourteen this very well could be a first down depending on the call pass interference it's still gonna be second down and they will move that half the distance down to the ten yard line here's again another look and you saw Burris get his arm around Kazuki before the ball got there and that's why they called it Gazoo see says throw the flag yes thank you sir so it's I think you did a sir that's very important it comes to Dvorsky get another big player in there for the Lancers in Hickman split to the right divorce key hands it up the middle Shelton's gets hit hard still moves ahead and gets it down inside the 10 but about the 8 yard line it's gonna be third and 2 it's good hard running by the Lancers they've used that counter trap quite a bit tonight a lot of yards made after the initial contact it's a big front line for the Stallions and they still are creating quite a bit of problems for that Lancer running game Kazuki's back in there with the play and we got pen a split to the right Kazuki or excuse me Kazuki the right pen a to the left divorce key in there in the shotgun with Shelton's behind him he looks 5 penne turns it up oh and he has stopped short of the goal line but he's gonna have a first down first in goal for Liberty good throw great strike right on the money and a good job of tackling I believe that's number 9 again Burris he's everywhere I'm a little surprised by that Brian they only needed a yard to throw that ball with the number of interceptions and how quick these defensive backs are but they're throwing on an in and in route yep which is get just get your body between yours bit the ball and the defender here we go first and goal at the 1 throws it up oh my goodness it almost picked off again Chris Smith was over the middle and divorce Keyes passes knocked down in the end zone watch number 3 get a great read on this that's Demetrius long who almost add another turnover another interception in the end zone Wow rice Kazuki comes in now and you boy former line coach you would you would hope he'd have enough confidence in his guys to just Ram this thing up the middle well they were lined up in that power I and they have two backs again you got your fullback and your tailback you would think that your tail back here is just gonna follow no no they're not it's Shelton's behind Kowalski they're gonna throw it out to the side penny has it he's in touchdown Liberty Musa been a great catch by penny he knew he was going to get lit up on that play and that's huge for the Lancers they get points on the board we talked about it just a one step drop quick strike and Liberty is on the board tonight their first six points of the game Dawson divorce kee did a great job on that play saw some of the Liberty fans they're loving it bringing down that high snap and getting the beautiful pass out to penny so now it looks like Hazuki is in to try and kick the extra point if you get three touchdowns in three extra points you're up by a point that would be the first one hey I'm the math guy tonight okay sorry Scruggs will be the holder for the Lancers and Kisuke puts it up and through it makes it seven points for the Liberty Lancers the crowd loves it 5:10 left second quarter Lancers back in this thing there's another great look at it coming right into your your living room your computer screen your smartphone however you're watching this tonight on 20 T V we're glad you're with us and I'm glad Mike did Mike Byron pay these quarterbacks to just like throw the ball at him yep since he's had some great shots tonight Mike fire him on the camera on the field Jason Carter doing a great job also on the field our up top cameras being run tonight by Tom Paul and Nick are cine AK doing a great job bringing you the pictures at home never SUNYAC the rookie on the crew tonight working on the crew it's usually my call so now let's see what the Lancers do as Kazuki will have to kick this off and Sierra will have Burris back there the in Isiah Smith so the interesting legend is gonna be here is if Sierra holds on to this kick and they go on the offensive attack who's coming out a quarterback this will be interesting and it looks like they're creeping up looking for a possible onside kick but Kazuki sends it deep this is gonna be Elijah Smith taking bobble in the ball before he's got it at the 5 Lancers coming up on him he's gonna reverse the field look out here comes Smith across the 15 yard line to the 20 and the Lancers finally gang up on him there and bring him down and the tackle was made by Nick Parsons down there for the Lancers but look at the speed of Elijah Smith and I thought he might have stepped out of bounds but that official was right on top of that and then he gets the other side of the field he ran about 50 yards and gained 20 but still what a good return who else was on top of that was like Byron there's the shot it's the red hat right at him and I am going to apologize once again to see your fans that was Connor Burgess not Elijah Smith very tough to make the difference between an 8 a 9 in a 2 just crunching together it's either that or my ol - now they're scrunching together cuz I've got old eyes and wearing readers as well new quarterback in the game in it quarterback is number 8 so we know now know who their backup quarterback is Connor Burgess who takes over fer - aw - and a nice tackle there by that man Musa penny he's got the touchdown and the latest tackle for 34 left 2nd quarter Cam Liberty capitalize on this momentum no lookout up the middle goes Smith for a first down and the Sierra stallions have been pretty unstoppable so far tonight there's a lot of speed on this team but look at the hole it's a gaping 4-foot span there as Smith turns on the afterburners one thing the Stallions are not lacking in speed no oh look out twisting turning moving a good job by connor burgess to get just a few yards for the Stallions and i'll tell you what if you're Koecher sorry you would like to just get out of this half with the 22 seven lead there's no doubt about it Burgess has to be careful there he tried to make a move to see how he's carrying that football not tucking it into his body there's a pitch and a flag down and Oh tackle big tackle today on that's penny again how about the play of Musa penny and we got a flag on the field it looked almost like a forward pitch as well and we'll see what the officials say this time looks like this is a big hit by penny against the Stallions I believe as the referee was talking to the head coach Gossage pene is fired up man well he is doing it on both sides of the ball and he's the punter and he's coming up from his free safety position to make that tackle he's running 20 yards to make that tackle illegal motion called against the Stein's five-yard penalty look like the pitch went forwards ooh if you ask me very well could have so it's second and 11 for Sierra Desmond Eden up the middle a band of Lancers takes care of a man its third and about seven now you're right you can put you forward as long as you're behind the line of scrimmage as our illustrious producer Rob Parrish tells me I'm gonna call Rob industrious tonight you know why because Corey's gone you know we had chocolate chip cookies Casper's intercepted again look out here comes Musa panic he's got the corner and he is gone touchdown second of the night for Musa penny and the Liberty Lancers they're right back in this football game listen to this crowd and rightly so we talked about penny being a playmaker holy smokes that's an understatement I am shocked at how fast this kid is dressed that way he knew he said you know what you're gonna throw that to me I'm gonna take it to the house he made the big play 2 players ago with coming up and making that tackle here he is in his free safety position picking off that pass and taking it to the house and just like that three minutes to go in this game second first half and they're only down seven soon to be six if they make the extra point and make the extra point Kisuke lines up for it grant Scruggs will hold he made the first one look easy in this second one Oh low and possibly blocked by Sierra but it's still within seven for the Liberty Lancers 22:13 302 left second quarter what a play by Musa penny we have ourselves a football game here you wonder coming off the bench how Conner Burgess is going to react his first pass goes of her touchdown move in the other direction and again I am going to say how much money does Mike byron have because the the 20 TV videographer down on the field is getting every play run right at him something's going on something's going on let's not complain cuz that's a beautiful video it certainly is so now the Lancers will kick-off again let's see do you know need to onside kick really nope that's a great looking et yeah nice job by Kazuki setting this one up we'll see what happens Ciara only has four guys up front look at their twenty yards deep to could get an onside kick too early for that but something to think about later in the game Kazuki sends it Smith lets it go over his head and the Stallions will start again and how much as the loss of Toby - ah - to this Ciara football team is Toby limped off with some some help and he has not returned for the Stallions at quarterback I think it's gonna be a huge loss and I think that Coach ursery has got to figure out a way the Stallions had a lot of success throwing that football they were really mixing up the run in the past and the first two quarters here they probably need to find a way to establish a ground game to run some time off this clock Conner Burgess hands it to deed indeed in' up the middle that'll cheer up some clock but only about three yards and the Stallions will keep the football no huddle for Ciara interesting co-chair Surry trying to put some more points on the board before this half ends well you don't want to park the bus hats off for trying to get a few more points before that clock ticks down to zero Burgess to deed indeed in' up the middle we got flags flying everywhere and that's usually an illegal motion and if that's against the air that's gonna push him back to about second and 12 that helps liberty stops the clock pushes the ball in their favor I'll tell you what when he was 22 nothing did you think the Liberty moved beat back this close in the same half I thought Liberty was gonna come back ten right I didn't know what would happen that fast Ben quick strikes on both sides of the football tonight so second at 12 Ciara lines up or just look into the sideline for a play he's got Desmond Eden in there with him coach Gossage sees something he's telling his linebackers to move here comes Dean a bad pitch the ball is on the ground Deaton gets it Wow that's really the first mistake we've seen see Aramaic and good thing - Eaton got the ball and this could have been really costly that one pitch is not even close to the outstretched arms of diamond it was certainly missed - aah - whoo I do not see on the sidelines for Sierra oh I do he's sitting on the bench with his helmet off third down and forever vertice ends it up the middle again Deaton and this time again he is stuffed by that Liberty defense and you better believe momentum is on the Lancers side now no doubt about it though the two quick strikes and now they call a timeout not sure if they called it I don't know why Sierra called no Liberty did smart move by coach Gossage he's got 136 on the clock he's probably gonna get good field position the Lancers have had it all night long and they're hot right now they certainly aren't if they get that ball look out and you know what you're gonna do you're gonna do the Lancers you're gonna get the ball to number two well he's gonna feel it on the punt right here you can be sure of that Musa pene remember the name so 136 left is Vince mentioned fourth and 14 the ball is on the 16 yard line Sierra not much of a special teams game I believe desmond eden has been the punter his first punt with about 20 yards in the first quarter his last punt didn't fare much better musa penny if but if I'm if I'm coach ursery I'm saying kick this thing out of bounds I agree it's far down the field as you can and out of Bounce I know they used to do that they called it the coffin corner kick and the punter would actually turn and kick it to the outside it's a lost art Brian penne is deep he's standing just beyond the midfield line Desmond Eden gets the ball off this ones up in the air pen he's gonna feel it inside the Gers makes breaks one tackle bird just can't bring him down or candy he does so down to the 37 yard line Musa penny breaks one tackle can't elude the second first in ten Liberty 124 left first half watch how close this is to fumbling he has some great hands brings that ball back into his chest what an all-around athlete some real athletes on both sides of the field tonight but we talked about it inside the 40-yard line 124 to go see if Liberty goes back to those quick passes those slants again you don't need it all right now we'll see if the wide receiver screen comes up here it looks like trips to the right with penny to the far right right in front of your screen here Dawson navorski up the middle Shelton's has the ball maybe got one it's gonna be second down and nine trying to break one quickly up the middle there but the clock is gonna continue to roll down closer to one minute left first half you know and I don't mind that that's not a bad call right there Brian they try and catch Sierra off guard with that little quick play right up the middle now they got penny split right and he looks like he's got single coverage against Burris Oh high snap divorce key comes down with it and gate gets hammered or in the backfield right away and a good job I'm big number 56 that's Toa not to Napa - good job Vince Atilla Napa - with the big sack that's gonna set Liberty back and it's gonna be third and 19 and if you're coach Gossage maybe you take one shot down the field here with the clock running you just as soon not give Sierra the ball back and they're taking their times kazusa comes into Dvorsky wants it I'm not even sure I snap it here locks not a factor and Musa Penny not on the field looks like they are gonna snap it and they are gonna take a shot looking and incomplete pass as they tried to get that one to gauge Feldman on the outside that stops the clock it's 6.7 seconds and we're gonna have I think the Lancers might take one more shot I do I agree with you it's 4th down and 19 this will be just like a punt but you better have some good coverage down there cuz we've talked about it all night the players leave that's Demetrius long that might be the safety valve back there for Sierra we're gonna have another timeout called by the Lancers they want to make sure they don't make a mistake in the final six seconds of this football game and some bad news for Lancer fans Musa penne looks like he might be a little bit maybe he had a cramp there the trainer was working on him and now he's back up so if Sierra did call that timeout it may have just gotten musa penny back on the field for the Lancers he currently has his helmet off and he's not in the offensive huddle so they're gonna keep him out boy if I were fired the Lancers I just get it in his hands and see what he can do with six seconds his multi-purpose yards tonight are up there that's is that your math yep I'll have to do some quick math during halftime so coach Gossage comes over with the team huddled and out comes the Lancer offense if I could have one wish for the rest of the football season is that the weather would be like this for every single game it's awesome there's coach Gossage talking to the officials it's cooled off a little tonight and here we go - Dvorsky let's see if they don't hand this off for a draw yep that's duress Cyrus Pelt nice nice move cuts it inside loses his helmet Sierra play la Salle's here player lost his helmet on the big hit that was again number 56 no pot to and that's the way the first half ends the Liberty Lancers are back in this football game 22:13 Sierra with the lead will come back with some halftime highlights thanks for joining us tonight you're watching district 20 high school football as Moussa penny brings it into your living room on 20 TV [Music] you back inside district 20 Stadium in Colorado Springs the liberties Lancers have made a game of it Brian German alongside Vince Greco and Vince the Lancers were down 20 to nothing and Sierra was put in a world of hurt on him early and you called that we both felt like Liberty was gonna get back into this football game we just didn't know how quickly but this is the hole they dug themselves early on early in the game first play fumble scooped up by Smith and he is off to the races first defensive touchdown of the game I say that like there are more there were there were Dawson divorce key went to the to the air the next time and Bryce and Williams made a great play but he switched the ball to the inside arm as you said Vince right gets it stripped away Sierra comes up with it that was the second huge turnover for the Liberty Lancers they were still down six to nothing because the Stallions had missed their first extra point but then the stallions do it with a little bit of offense that's Toby - aw - throwing it inside to Isiah will burn for the touchdown and then we'll Burt said I caught one ball I can catch one from you two picks this one off from Dawson divorce key goes to the house it was 20 to nothing Sierra and look at the speed both sides of the line her teams have great speed here comes Chris big sack and an injury and we are gonna have to wait and see what happened on that play - Toby - watch him he left did not look good and that gave a lot of momentum to the Lancers yep Musa penne with the touchdown catch and he says hey you think you can do something Isaiah Wilburn I can do it better take the pick goes in for the score both will burn and penne with two touchdowns each and it's 20 to 13 here at halftime and Connor Burgess has come in to replace - ah - for Sierra it's going to be interesting to see what Coach ursery does for Sierra do they keep it on the ground or do they have the confidence in Burgess that he can put the ball in the air regardless of that Brian we've got a game here at district 20 Stadium 20 to 13 and a half time I'm really excited for the second half it should be fun we're not sure if - aw - we'll come back didn't look like he would he was sitting on the bench with his helmet off the of the first half but nonetheless we've got a football game Liberty Lancers find themselves down by just seven we'll be back with second-half action for district 20 Stadium you're watching high school football on 20 TV you we're back at district 20 Stadium and Liberty Lancers trying to overcome a 20-point deficit they've scored 13 so far in the second quarter and they are back out on the field still waiting for the sierra stallions to come out looks like the coaching staff has left the locker room here's a good look at Derek Gossage and his troops on the sideline Vince what's he telling hey we're still in this football all right back in the football game just avoid the turnovers they had three costly turnovers did Liberty two of them led to touchdowns for Sierra if they eliminate those turnovers that's got to be what he's talking about take care of the football and eliminate the penalties six penalties for 72 yards against the Lancers in that first two quarters on the other side sierra the same thing they turned the ball over twice one of them led to a touchdown they had eight penalties for 65 yards so very similar statistics for these two teams in that first two quarters of play they've got to take care of the football both of them in the second half I know what I'd say if I was an offense or a defensive coach for these Liberty Lancers I'd be reminding them hey you only gave up one touchdown guys played a pretty good half you only give it one time touchdown and you point over there and you say those guys gave up too no just kidding right no that's an odd thing you don't really see two defensive touchdowns scored by one team in a game we've seen three in this game one by Liberty to Sierra yeah I would have never thought that yes it's gonna be a little sloppy it's early in the season you've got two very young teams on the field right now but to have three defensive touchdowns you might not see three defensive touchdowns combined from these two teams again all year right or you may not to see it on 20 TV that's for sure you know when you have explosive speed in your defensive backfield you can do things like that but Elijah Smith can scoop up a ball you know he's gonna be gone and when it will burn intercepts a pass he's gonna have the edge to get to the end zone Musa frente same thing so good thing here we're about a minute from the start of the second half but it should be an exciting second half of it I think both teams really worked out the kinks yeah I did it'd be interesting to see what that what was said in the locker room again I do think it's take care of the football I know we're beating horse but you cannot afford either one of these teams in this third and fourth quarter to turn it over like they did in that first half and I think for coach ursery and the stallions it's run the football they were doing good running the football don't don't try and get your backup quarterback to be the hero just continue to pound a football at Liberty and see if you can get some more time off the clock you still have the lead maybe punch another one and get a bigger lead for our professional football fans the Arizona Cardinals lead the Denver Broncos at the end of the first quarter seven to nothing in a game that no starters are playing I was gonna say and I care because I'm just letting our football fans know Brian we are all around what about the college football they're like 12 games I'll get that in a moment baseball fans Rockies are losing two to nothing in the bottom of the second thing alright both teams back on the field the Lancers oh boy Musa Pinay is back and we'll see last time Deaton just kicked this ball right down the middle to Esmond Eden so the Lancers look like they do have some hands on that second line out there as well as the first line we'll see what Coach ursery told Desmond Eden to do with this football and we are ready to go there's the whistle 12 minutes on the clock for the start of the third quarter Deaton kicks this one off and he does kick it right towards penny but there's another whistle and again and offside for the Sierra stallions and you got to think the Lancers are gonna have some good field position no doubt about it the second time tonight that the Lancers have gotten across that kick line before the ball was kicked away great anxious play by the youngsters out there but you've got to be a little more patient it cost your team in other five yards has been Deaton that's what your team's just too fast both these teams have a lot of speed there's no doubt about it if Lancer fans are expecting to see number 42 Mike Cornelius I don't think he's gonna play anymore tonight he took off the shoulder pads right before half-time the trainer's were looking at him on the locker room and his pads are still on the ground in front of us team kicks it away but then a picks it up at the seven he's out - across the 35 and they wrap him up and throw him down there about the 37 yard line there's another flag on the field it's like Elijah Smith stood on that tackle know there is not a flag on the field I was looking at the graphic and not the field my bad mr.

Parrish good field position again we've said that all night for liberty and I would be a little bit surprised if they come out and throw the football here see if they can establish that run game early on they have not been able to really have any long drives tonight they fumbled the football going in on one play divorce key hands it off and this is a new running back in the game that Cyrus pelt who finished the end of the first half of the nice run that was a nice job of stopping and our guest in the booth surprising our great announcer Brian German he is praying for a Liberty win tonight yes he is Samantha's it's doing pretty good yes mr. mantis taking care of business told you we had a guest in the booth so the war ski and the shotgun Shelton back there with him penny to the right divorce key bad snap picks it up he's gonna come to penny a nice catch did he get a foot of em they say yes and it's going to be a first down Liberty great hands by penny again and a really nice throw for the quarterback putting it only where penny he's gonna bring it down and he had to scoop up a terrible snap throwing on the run oh I don't know he got one foot in that's all you need in high school football huh I think that one foot was on the line Vince he was a lot closer to the nos the official all right let's see my camera shot down there again we don't want to see it Lancers were the first down divorce key this time is Kisuke split to the right divorce key hands it off Shelton he comes inside cuts across midfield and gets a nice game does the junior running back caleb Shelton's read the blocking outside beautifully as he takes a step step cuts it back up picks up a nice five yards for liberty the Lancer mascot running down in front of us pretty happy does the Lancer mascot have a name Lance might be Lancelot divorce key takes the snap Shelton's back to protect throws it high and over the head of Hickman and it goes incomplete so it's gonna be third down and six very quick passing attack by the Lancers to start this third quarter not going deep trying to take little chunks and if you look a lot of the Sierra players we are minute and a half into the third quarter and half em have their hands on their hips we talked about depth we talked about getting run down and we'll see if fatigue is a factor and if the Lancers can take advantage of that here in the third and fourth quarter divorce key with Shelton's behind him third and six trips left divorce Kansas on twisty Shelton's he gets the first down and more he's across the 40-yard line and a good hard tackle over there by who else Burris bringing him down take a look at how fast this play develops right up to Center off tackle Shelton's gets outside and picks up nine for a great first down from the Lancers Tristan Burris a nice tackle over there and Sierra takes a timeout and I'm thinking right now the coach are you saying halftime wasn't long enough for us we needed we need to blow we need to take some take a load off here right and I mentioned you saw on that previous play half of the Stallions standing with their hands on their hips you can still see him over there in their huddle they're tired they are while you sees the Lancers absolutely I didn't go chairat Gossage he's not tired I think he can feel it if he they take care of the football marched down the field here they will have a ton of momentum and that will have the Stallions on their heels as they're having to play with a backup quarterback we'll see Bryson Williams back into the game at running back for the Lancers and he's taken to play in there being told to play moosa penny stays split wide to the right we'll see who covers him single coverage Tristan Burris is gonna cover him one on one we'll see if divorce kee goes to him he's got Shelton's in front of him divorce key he thought about it rush right there that was Smith once again breaking through and a big sack and maybe that's what they talked about he's getting some more pressure on divorce key and the cornerback comes from the outside they send him on a blitz not covered big call by the Stallions it's a big loss for liberty if loss of what eight on the play yep it's gonna be second at 18 Kisuke brings to play in talks to divorce key and we'll go trips right with Smith Musa penny and Williams to the right and just Hickman off to the left divorce Keith Rose a dependent he's got the catch wow that was almost intercepted again Smith was there it looked like it went through his hands right to Penny's great catch great throw this is just a timing route goes right over the hands of the linebacker in penny with another catch how many times we called his name tonight Musa na you know what's nice about Thursday night high school football if you're Musa Bennett you get to skip class on Friday yeah and not skip class but you get to be the hero walking through the halls I like my house you better yeah but we don't skip class at district 20 that's right that is right Shelton's takes it up the middle for a nice gain but it's gonna be fourth down for liberty if forth and about call it four Kisuke brings the play in as Coach Gossage says we're going for it throwing it or running a brain well I don't care if I throw a run I just want to get it in the hands of number two and preferably the number two in red he's single coverage to the top of your screen divorce key hands it off quick Shelton's up to the middle he's got the first down down to the 23 yard line at Lancers Drive is still alive Lancers have found some Running Room off tackle and off guard on both sides of the line offensive line of Liberty starting to wear down that front three of the Stallions and they are getting big chunks of yards and if I'm coach Gossage I keep doing that until they stop me here that quick hitter especially Shelton's hits that line so fast he's by the linemen before they know what hit him and now they've got Pelt in the backfield he takes the pitch to the left cuts it bucket inside and gets about a gain of two or three down close to the 20-yard line like that play two very quick hitting getting into the outside first time tonight that we've called the name of Cyrus pelt second time third time it's the charm [Laughter] Dawson Dorsky again from Kisuke felt stays in the game divorce key with Shelton's way behind him as a tailback how gets it Wow and I think he was down he may have had the knee down he was close it really was he had the knee down though he's down in high school football and he caught the ball went down looked like his knee was very close to the ground and I think they're gonna call him down let's see again yep good he's here great job by our crew here 20 TV and a Parker run on the replay machine great job by Tom Paul you know she met with his camera we haven't given Dawson divorce key enough credits tonight how many times is he had a high snap a snap on the ground that he's had to recover from and make something out of that bad snap it's amazing anymore you know back back in our day quarterback was if the quarterback goes in the shotgun it was an anomaly nobody even knew what it was exactly they were always under center you know Brian I missed that old-time football I do too back in the day yep didn't have to wear face masks just that leather helmet hockey goalies didn't wear a face mask or a helmet divorce key comes up now it's third and 13 Shelton's behind him and they give it to him again another quick hitter he's not gonna get 13 yards but he does get up to the 20-yard line we'll see if the Lancers go for it Gossage has been going for it a lot on fourth down and it looks like they will Kazuki's gonna run the play in fourth and eight it's time it's a little further there's a good hard running on that play by the Lancers I look for another quick slant here try and get that ball into the hands of Musa penny well and I don't think they're using Chris Smith enough tonight either the big Ty dad he's a big target out there he has been trips on the same side as penny he is left again help comes right along with Kisuke fourth and eight divorce key back to pass he's looking throwing hide Kisuke nice catch first down Liberty inside the 10 yard line down to the sixth what a great play call by coach Gossage the outside receiver goes inside kind of the decoy and then here comes Bryce Kisuke brings it down first down Lancers and they continue to throw the ball right at Mike Byram our 20 TV videographer down there first and goal divorce key with Shelton's behind it gives it to Shelton so oh and he is plowed oh man he was hit twice hard Deaton first got him and then ox ox live a laid the wood great penetration by the stands and then you see the final blow Desmond Eden and ox love a WoW gonna feel that one tomorrow I like to call though that that's work that's worked and that time the stallions just stuff snuffed that one out they've seen enough of that play I think this has been a good drive for the Lancers taking a lot of time off the clock they do need to get into the end zone they have to get some points on this Drive divorce key with Shelton's and Williams finally in that tailback position you haven't seen that much tonight divorce key on the roll got the big tight end Christmas touchdown and they're gonna call an offensive interference for a pick on the outside I'll bet you he's either that or maybe a lineman downfield we'll see so keep those points off the board for a minute we'll see what the officials say you called it they had to use Smith they had him wide open but was he was a screen set down there or you're right it could be an illegal man downfield will see the bike cap says looks like it's definitely going against the Lancers that's a tough one it's the second time taking points off the board yep you look a man downfield mmm coach Gossage not happy that's tough when you get into the end zone have the chance to take a lead here for the first time tonight and it's called back because of a penalty well I'm hoping it's not the same lineman who's been downfield twice tonight so Smith now comes out and coach Gossage is talking to him I'm not sure coach Gossage once I wonder if the way he was lined up if he was the lineman that was downfield maybe if that's the explanation coach Gossage god that's mm-hmm that would make sense as to why he's being berated right now yeah absolutely so divorce key stays in we got Hickman now split to the right trips left another high snap throws it over the head of Hickman and it bounces incomplete in the end zone divorce key talking to Hickman saying I wanted you to cut this way Adri says sure Smiths still down at the end of the bench getting talked to by a couple of the Lancer coaches so pleading his case yeah Kisuke comes in it's third and goal at the 13 yard line Lancers need a big play here they really do it's tough to tell this to down territory or which to take the points musa penny single coverage on the right side divorce Keys gonna roll to the left he's got a man down in the end zone throws it corner oh it dropped Kisuke had it in his hands and it went out he would have had to get his foot inbounds but it's incomplete nonetheless well that was close and you have to wonder here if maybe divorced he could not have taken off and ran with that football I'd have been tough that was a tough throw and a tough catch to make so fourth down now and the Lancers are gonna go for a field goal as Kisuke comes in to kick it Scruggs is in there I wouldn't put by Eric Gossage to run a fake here either especially with Scruggs the backup quarterback we know he can throw it it's down it's blocked and Kisuke didn't realize the ball was live now it's troves it for Scruggs and the big scrum and they're gonna take over the ball the Stallions will take over the ball to 21 yard line well that's tough Liberty marched right down the field took a ton of time off the clock impressive drive and to come away with no points and they did score but an eligible man downfield taking points off the board Sierra will take over for the first time here in the second half 22:13 still for 44 left third quarter Connor Burgess back at quarterback for the Stallions we mentioned tobe - ahhh - had a really good first half he is still out of this game he's injured a lower extremity injury as Bill Belichick would say okay set up inside here comes Smith nice spin move gets it up out towards the 30-yard line he's just a couple yards shy of a first down and I suspect that's gonna be the game plan of the stands the entire third and fourth quarter they want to take care of the football they can't afford to put it up too often especially with the backup quarterback in the game so Burgess in the shotgun again it's Smith again up the middle and this time he gets a first down about five yards game again pretty simple game plan when it works well we decided we thought Sierra would be running the football in the second half or seen a lot of Elijah Smith and what they're doing to is a lot of misdirection they're really coming back against the grain using a lot of trap blocking trying to get that big Lancer line off-balance first and ten Burgess again hands off Smith they were just pounding it up the middle at big line is doing a good job for Sierra and it's important or if you're rooting for the Stallions that they do have a good Drive their defense has been on the field the entire third quarter they need a little bit of rest over there although it's all the same players just saying Burris hands it off to Smith up the middle is gonna be close to another first down I think they're gonna give it to him so Sierra is grinding the ball out here clocks moving 3:45 to go it run off a whole minute so far in this drive this time it is deeding up the middle look at the push of that offensive line there are five yards down the field holding their blocks they're doing a great job inside there and I think you can hear the Liberty coaches on the sidelines talking to that defensive line to get in that gap stand up that offensive line give your linebackers a chance to make it misdirection look out here comes the quarterback with a nice play and a good read by Burgess he is the backup quarterback but he is a senior he's played a lot of football for these stallions the previous four plays Brian he handed that ball off this time he kept it himself really sucked in the interior line of Liberty and got outside for a big game Isaac V Hill Tolan Oppo too and Braylon Smith doing a great job up front for the Sierra team but here's a big play for the Lancers bumble henson they fumble the football the Lancers say they have it the officials say they do - Sierra Player is down and a great job by number nine Logan schlep who came up with that football he was hurt in the first half and he comes up with a big recovery of a fumble right there but we got a player down it's desmond Eden's down the kit young man that fumbled the ball is knocked out Deaton still down and Lancers will have it first turnover here of the second half and a big one for liberty we'll take a break 250 left third quarter 20 to 13 still our score we'll be back with more football on xx TV you ciara stallion still lead liberties Lancers 2213 but again momentum has shifted in just the last few seconds actually Sierra had the football they were driving it desmond eden hit hard gives up the football he's being aided off the field right now and the Lancers come up with the fumble recovery it looks like maybe a shoulder ford even as the trainer's have been busy on this year a sideline tonight they've already lost their starting quarterback Tobey - aw - and so the Lancers have the ball back at their own 39 yard line down by 7 and what our audience didn't see during that time out why they're attending - Deaton on the Liberty sideline head coach Erik Gossage he was getting the troops fired up in the middle of the Lancer huddle he was clapping he was barking orders he said now's your chance boys and now we have another stoppage of play as the Lancers you know I believe Sierra wanted a timeout coach ursery takes a timeout we'll keep it right here and 250 left third quarter maybe they were worried they didn't have everyone out on the field cuz Deaton I think that's what his team went half desmond Eden went off with an injury and he wasn't in there it is live backer position they may not have had all 11 on the field and you know that's hats off to all of these high school football players here in Southern Colorado it's a tough sport it's a physical sport the numbers are down not just here in Colorado but across the country and we talked about that tonight you have to admire the grit of both of these teams sierra came in here with what 25 players yeah they've lost two of their key players tonight if they keep battling they keep battling Liberty's lost a couple of players it's a great game you don't want to see people get hurt but hats off to all of our young men playing this game here in southern Colorado it hats off to the trainer's as well we've seen lots of trainers tonight out on the field taking care of some players some have come back on the field some haven't but man if you're an athletic trainer in the high school level nowadays they really really have to pay attention to these kids and just keep them safe no doubt about it divorce candor Center Shelton's back pin a split to the right divorce key drops a snap and I think that ball is still loose they have it they do yeah off the ground with it and that is a tough one for the Lancers another turnover for Liberty take another look it's just a scrum right there in the middle of the field I didn't even see the ball come out but it's recovered it's just a fumble Center the center and the quarterback did not exchange that ball at all was laying on the ground and up with it comes number two we've called his name all night too for the Sierra stallions that's Elijah Smith and toe on the po2 of Sierra got through with the penetration to really cause divorce key to not get that snap back after he mishandled it first who trips left now for Sierra Burgess and quarterback they'll bring Demetrius long in motion he gets the football on the round and he is taken down for a loss what a great job defensively for the Liberty Lancers and that was Scruggs he's a player he was quick he shot through that gap he saw that one coming all the way Sierra's halfback could not get outside and a big loss great stop by the Lancers so Burgess now looks at second and 13 just when you thought Sierra had some momentum Liberty comes right back they hand it off up the middle here comes Elijah Smith again pounding it down inside that's gonna be a nice gain on second down it's gonna leave third and about five good hole good hard running he takes a shot we've called Smith's name again he recovered the fumble he's on both side another two-way player this guy's just like to not rest trips left now for Burgess Smith in the backfield Smith takes the handoff cuts it outside looks like he's got room and he dives for the first down Elijah Smith and Ciara really wants to get this in the end zone get some points on the board and make this a two possession take a look at the extra effort he's like Superman he sees the first down marker it leaps up and over goes right over the top of number nine logan schlep first down stallions it's a bird it's a plane it's Elijah Smith Smith movie on that time Smith a little anxious to get the football that time moved before anyone else did and that's an illegal procedure it's gonna be first and 15 now for Sierra what Dida now it looks like Smith's gonna be the workhorse here in the last minute and a half of the third quarter and perhaps the fourth for Sierra he doesn't seem to mind Eve had no issue starting earlier that time but she's on the track team too but that kind of start I wouldn't doubt him this time Burgess back to pass throws deep got a man down there but it was thrown high the Liberty defender Kisuke wasn't looking for it Isiah will Bergeron could not come down with it jumped a little bit too quick you're right there's a lot of air under that football but I think he jumped well before the ball got there interesting that they went to the air I agree they've ever seen 15 yeah they've been seven eight yards of the chunk who they do here on second now this time they hand it off and Elijah Smith this time stopped by Liberty the Lancers really need to stop here although we still got a whole nother quarter to play but it would be nice to keep this a one possession game no huddle by the Stynes they look to the side lines for the play crowd coming alive for the Lancers trying to get them fired up and make a stop here on third down saying hold them deep Burgess receivers left and right to each he's back to pass plenty of time throws it well over the heads of everyone and incomplete it's gonna be fourth down for Sierra and I can't imagine imagine him trying to field goal now as Desmond Eden was their kicker they're gonna have to go for it on fourth and 15 good coverage by the Lancers Connor Burgess did have time to throw it but I think he's a little gun-shy after he threw that interception late in the second quarter and you mentioned the Liberty fans coming to life fourth and fifteen Burgesses in there [Music] back to pass got a little bit of time I close it up and it is intercepted and there's a Liberty plenty of room that Scruggs with the football yes he comes all the way cuts it back inside gets it across midfield and down inside the 43 yard line there is a marker outside the field it was thrown early Brian before the pass was thrown and then another concern if this holds up for the Stallions is their quarterback Connor Burgess barely was able to get up took a shot after that play there's a look at the hankie on the field here's the call sideline warning against the Lancers well that's it was that before during or after the play because that flag came down right as the snap was made the suck is gonna be Liberty's ball you know it'll stay Liberty's ball I don't know if they're gonna back it up a little nope they're just giving him a warning so interesting maybe the wrong marker was thrown on the ground by the officials shouldn't a flag should have maybe just been a marker to say let's warn these guys they're a little too close to the sideline but huge break for the Lancers and they they did a great job in coverage Scruggs read that like a centerfielder in baseball got under it and nice return and the Lancers are in business divorce keep taking the snap faking it to Williams he ludes a couple of players gets outside he's got a good game and he's still going for about an eight or nine yard game for the Lancers how about Dawson divorce key haven't seen that from him tonight no and maybe before when they were down close to the goal I remember I said he could have run that ball yet maybe they saw that on film as well big 11-yard gain on the per 8 8 yard gain on the play did a great job faked out the our cameraman that's hard to do it is a while ago like Tom Paul absolutely seconded to the clock run down sirs are moving man that will be it for the third quarter they'll switch sides they want to score at the other end zone tonight they've scored twice down this end they want to go with Jason Carter Mike Byram sorry buddy 22:13 we'll be back with 4th quarter action from district 20 stadium after this on 20 TV back inside district 20 Stadium in Colorado Springs we've got one Bruin here the Liberty Lancers down seven with the football and they are moving it inside the 35 yard line of the Sierra stallions divorce kee takes the snap rolls right he's got a man out there and Musa penny almost picked off knocked down again but they're gonna go flag they're gonna call pass interference is that on Burris I you know I can't see the eight in the nine again Tristan Burris nurse our Burgess I'm not sure it's Tristan Burris boy that has coach Dre ursery fit to be tied take another look wow he's right there with the ball I'm and the flight came in a second or two after the play yeah that's a tough one but it's good for the Liberty Lancers as it'll move the ball down inside the 25 yard line now no and the fans say first down it's like Mile High Stadium another Lancer Lee first down of the Lancer ok divorce key this time of Shelton's and he is just mugged right at the line of scrimmage he goes down for about a three-yard loss a Sierra will have none of that and tonews for Sierra Desmond dump attack in the game oh that is good news for these Dian's so it's gonna be second at 12 Kazuki's gonna split to the left now they got Musa penny Smith and Williams split to the right with Shelton's in the backfield divorce key and a shotgun looks quickly to penne penne cuts today inside the 20 oh and he is hammered from behind before he got to the first down marker it's gonna be third and about two here's that quick slant again receiver screen and that's the plan you want to have the football nice hit after the play there and knock him down but a big gain of about nine yards Wolfe Musa penne and Isiah will burn have two touchdowns apiece for their teams penny wouldn't mind having a third neither with the Lancer fans no doubt and they may see that happen inside the red zone good look at Musa Lancers have to just worry here about getting that first down the borsky takes the snap no quick hitter and Williams is just hammered in the backfield nothing doing and now coach Gossage has a decision to make look like another blitz put on by the Stynes that's number two Elijah Smith coming from his linebacker position last time the Lancers tried a field goal in this position it was a low kick and got blocked easily by Ciara so they're gonna go for it on fourth and six we'll see what they do maybe run a slant again to Musa penny maybe go I don't think they're gonna keep it on the ground the last two times they've lost yards they've gone backwards we got Kazuki to the left along with Williams Smith and penny to the right Shelton's in the backfield to Dvorsky look in Penny's way goes deep Penny's down there and they're well out of bounds he made the catch he did catch the ball but he was out of bounds it was really good coverage but boy what an athlete and what a catch by penny take another look look at the coverage he's got a man right in front of him he still brings that ball in could have kept his feet on the ground it would have been a fantastic play but Sierra gets the football now on the turnover of downs so Liberty with under ten minutes now it's not panic time yet but it's getting there they need to turn force another turnover if possible here and I can't imagine that the stallions are gonna try and put this ball in the air two interceptions been costly tonight for Connor Burgess the backup quarterback for the stallions Burgess to Elisha Smith Lancers let him go look at how did he squeak through they're unbelievably long to the outside the Lancers trying to chase him down a nice block on the outside there by Sierra look out Elijah Smith Wow no one can catch him he scores for Sierra what a play by Elijah Smith but did you see his teammates down field making blocks for him yes that is the epitome of teamwork he stopped at the line of scrimmage puts his hand down catches his balance and he is off to the races but watch the block here look at the hustle by number eight just to get in front of the defender and then you're gonna see eight again two huge blocks are you kidding me the quarterbacks down they're making do block yes you don't see that Connor Burgess the speed and the ability to get in front of the Liberty defenders and make those blocks fantastic job he he deserves as much credit for that touchdown as does Elijah Smith there's no doubt about it the quarterback down the field helping make those blocks they will go for two now 26:13 Burgess hands it off nothing doing this time up the middle will answer stop him so but it's still a two possession game now as Sierra has put another one on the board it's 26 to 30 no it's interesting coach ursery had said to us before the game about his young team his first year here he said I'm so excited about how they're starting to play together as a unit that last play is a definition of how to play together and here's a backup quarterback mind you in the game hands it off just I mean just the way Elijah Smith got through the line with his hand down breaks a couple tackles and Burgess he wasn't set on just watching him run down the field and cheer for him he's out there running trying to make a block and he makes two it shows me two fingers I'm still trying to process that you know until I saw the replay I did not know that was the quarterback that was running down the sidelines making those blocks was amazing well it already has their work cut out from Brian they've been down 20 points tonight and they have fought back I would expect them to do the same thing right here look who they've got back loose a penne he could make he could turn this thing around and one touch of the football well and also you've got Scruggs there right in front of him so if grant Scruggs he might get the football if they try and squib this thing Desmond Eden as we mentioned was injured earlier he's back in the game just duct tape and baling wire put him back together he's back in there he was holding his shoulder his neck maybe he just had a pinched nerve the very short kick your right Scruggs well nope he moved up actually to get that ball and now he's gonna scoot outside past the 35 gets a nice block cuts inside to the 45 and gets hammered whoa talk about a nice block downfield though number 25 Stephen board loss had a good good block in front of penny on this one this kids electric you just don't know what he's gonna do anytime he gets the ball switches hands looks downfield keeps his head up tries to make more and then just a big hit by I think that might have been number 56 Napa to just stick with the number Vince 56 divorce key now trying to bring Liberty back to within a touchdown I always said it all night they've got the ball at the 45 yard line very short field for the Lancers Musa penny the lone wide receiver to the left and they pitch it outside this is Pelt gets about two yards does Cyrus pelt junior running back second and eight not a bad play get a couple yards positive yardage to the last two running plays have been negative yards and more importantly just keep keep that's the air defense thinking okay they're not just gonna try and pass it yep I'm a little surprised Lancers aren't and a little bit more of a hurry under nine minutes to go walking up to the line as we've seen Sierra all night has run a no-huddle pretty much all night long Devore ski with penny to the left eye slew her his head he's coming down with it now he's gonna throw it way up in the air and throw it away and coach Gossage not quite as talented can I say is penny well divorce key you know give the kid some credit we've talked about how he's had to handle those high snaps or low snaps when that ball is that far off the mark that just throws your rhythm off completely your receivers a lot of these are timing routes when you're spending a second or two just trying to get the ball in your hands everything is thrown off most definitely Elijah Archuleta comes into this football game and out comes Jack shaver it's done a good job for liberty tonight he's not happy comes over gets his head on the bench so divorce key in there with pelt and it's belt the football and he goes down immediately I can't say enough how amazing this Garrett well this cierra defense has been towing a boat who comes in again makes another tackle and he's he's alignment he's not one backer yeah he's shedding the the lineman up front and making tackles in the backfield three-man front and they've ran it all night long they made the adjustments when they've had two Lancers are going to pump this away or do they dare fake it again Saturday hen a do his magic oh he's gonna have a choice to run now picks it up nope thought about punting it like that nice little fake right there but he's way too far from the sticks to get the first down and Sierra brings him down and there's Musa penny picking him up off the ground well over his head just another mistake just too many mistakes for Liberty tonight Vince it really happened and it is early you have to take care of the ball one of the keys to the game if you remember back to our pregame show from the Liberty answers Lancers be solid on special teams they have you know returning the ball tonight they've been very good trying to punt it and extra points they've not been very good you have to be consistent and they have not done that tonight well actually if you look at the three keys to the game the first one was the turnover battle yeah they didn't win that one either nope so coach Gossage I'm sure in his first year with this Liberty team he's gonna try and keep their heads alive and there are a bunch of young players out there and you can expect them to make mistakes especially in their first games you know playing in high school football but there are plenty things to build on here and this game still isn't over with 738 left although it's Sierra's football at the 25-yard line and again two teams that have fought hard tonight but ever fought hard the last few seasons just trying to get a win Sierra has had one win in each of the last three seasons this may be a huge win for them tonight they could pull this off it really would Liberty had two wins last year two new head coaches and we've met both of these coaches before the game very charismatic they care about their two their kids they want them to be successful and they understand they are going to be growing pains which we've seen tonight but we've also seen some great flashes of what these two programs can accomplish if they keep at it throughout this year and the years to come years to come because you get some experience you learn some things that on that high school football field you can get better so I say a Wilburn now splits far to the right I will be absolutely shocked if the Stallions put this ball in the air Burgess in the shotgun and Elijah Smith behind it Burgess gonna he's waiting for the official now he gets the nod here we go to Smith look at Burgess he's out there blocking again okay back right this the whole great is a runner as Elijah Smith is and he's made great plays tonight look at Burgess here he comes here's one block there's another block downfield yeah he hands the ball off and then beats him up the field to make a block that's amazing I'm not so I'm not sure what to say Connor Connor Burgess that's amazing first intent all the 14 yard line Burgess hands it to Smith Smith plows ahead this time Burgess kind of just watch it in he's tired still three yards on the on the pickup and Burgess comes out now and it looks like oh he lost a pad or something had to get it to Deaton on the sidelines he comes back out there and Desmond Deaton is back in the game they'll be interesting to see here how far they let the play clock run down it's under 20 now there are no hurry to get up to the line and you can't blame him and that's a senior Connor Burgess at quarterback so he understands listen to his coach snap the ball at seven get it inside to Deaton in Liberty is right there to bring him down good job by number 54 the Lancers Kyary Kelly so it's gonna be third about six for Sierra and you got to think this four down territory Sierra they did attempt one field goal tonight didn't do so well well Deaton's back so he can't kick Deaton in the backfield along with Burgess and they are milking that play clock Burgess sends Smith in motion they hand it off nope the fake here comes Burgess as a flag down and a great job defensively by Liberty on the far side a nice tackle 25 Stephan Barratt for less board 'less with a nice tackle and there was some illegal motion there I believe for Sierra in the backfield if your Liberty I think you want to push him back yeah I agree with you wholeheartedly and that's gonna drive coach ursery crazy you don't want to stop the clock in that situation and they do push it back so it's gonna be third and 18 according to the scoreboard operator that had to have been on legal block that's a what 15-yard penalty was a five-yard penalty it was a ten it seems like 12 so it must have been from the spot of the foul right 15-yard penalty and Burgess with Deaton in the backfield Lydon Burgess takes the snap looks quick hitter here we come inside that's Burris Burris breaks the tackle touchdown Ciara and that should just about do it for the Stallions who as you said they're gonna be a little excited Vince they've won one game each tough for the last three seasons if you start with a win there's a high probability you might get to I could not agree more this is all speed he makes a great cut but then he Jie speed just beats everybody to the end zone great play call by the stands and I think that might have caught Liberty off guard a little bit I said I'd be shocked if they threw the football they had the confidence and they made it work well they had to if they were gonna try and get a first down instead of a kick the field goal and here they go for two again 32 to 13 Burris hands it to deed nope keeps the ball comes around the end got some good blocking as a flag and I don't think they're gonna count that two-point conversion it's gonna be a hold against Sierra they're gonna back him up ten more yards and I think Vince they're not kicking because they're not confident enough in their kicking game it's not that they're trying to rub it in or anything right I think they're just they're going for two because that's you know a way to try and convert I agree a kicking game has not been special kickoffs punts or extra point attempts for the Stallions tonight and a 519 left in this 1/5 penalty against the Stallions in the second half just one for the Liberty the answers and high school coaches will tell you okay for the Liberty Lancers it would take a miracle to come back in this football game but it's a teaching moment it's time to show your players that hey the game's not over and we don't stop playing Burgess takes the snaps gonna look up field throw it deep Scott a man down there and it's knocked away by Liberty a good job defensively by Scruggs stops the two-point conversion 32 to 13 will be where we're at and the Lancers will get the ball back and they'll come out firing they're not gonna go down without a fight they want to get back into this game like you said it's probably a little too much to overcome tonight but if they can come out here maybe they'll work on that two-minute drill let's get the ball down the field as you said teaching moment that they may be in a situation where they're down three points six points seven points later in the season and they will remember back to this time and the coaching staff talking to the Lancers probably got some sort of return they want to put on which we know is to get the ball to Musa penny hats off to just do some blocking Lancer fans not many of my left tonight sticking by their team they had a great show at halftime a Liberty Band they always put on a good show indeed the fans love that so Eric Gossage walks up the field to watch Ciara kick off he wants to see if they're offsides again so it was really staying back and Musa penny drops the football picks it up at the 21 yard line he's got some room on the left hand side can he get around the corner he does at the 35 to the 40 kind of skips a little bit and Ja dives out to the 45 yard line I wonder if mu says kind of feeling it a little bit he was getting some work for I think cramps early on I'm not sure how many offensive plays the Lancers have run tonight but you can bet he's touch the ball on most of them yes he has he looks a little tired out there 510 left another short field four we've said that all night broken record and they really have great starting position on their offensive drives Smith pen and Pelt split to the left and a lone receiver to the right another bad snap he's got a man wide open divorce key sends it down there he's got it what a catch and touchdown for Hickman age rece Hickman got open back there and then had the presence of mind to keep his eye on the football and it got to him in the Sierra defender couldn't stop the ball look at it again what a great job by divorce keep bringing that down and then just chucking it up the field I told you they'd come out firing and a great job as you said by Hickman great concentration there was a defender in his face looks it into his chest and then runs it into the end zone Bryan that took one play in about three seconds DJ Dorsey was on the coverage back there for Sierra we haven't seen him in the game much tonight and Liberty gets back on the board they will try and kick the extra point to cut it to 12 Kisuke hold by Scruggs Kazuki punches it through it's good that's unbelievable the ball was laying on the turf he stopped waited for it to be reset and then kicked it through the uprights 32 to 20 so now it's coach Gossage doing onside kick here to try and schemes no permits no wells with a play like that just about five minutes to go in the contest back with some momentum the Lancers is it too early to try an onside kick well not down to scores I don't think I I agree with you and let's see how Ciara lines up they have been 20 yards off the kick line all night long will they move up will they bring in their their hands team it looks like they are do they they've got they've got caught Connor Burgess up front there along with Dorsey and Isiah Smith they're bringing all their guys up so the Stein's expecting the onside kick you're taking a good look at the Lancers most likely their special teams coach Kazuki will be the kicker and Isiah Smith does come forward this time he's got them all lined up at midfield rather than being back 20 yards stallions have you said just one man back Brice Kazuki see what the Lancers do onside whoops it and a nice catch and a good job by the Sierra stallions to keep that ball that's number 18 and drill Sanders junior making a nice play is that it the first time we called his name tonight it is it's been in there good starting field position for Sierra again they did score on the passing play their last possession but I really think you're gonna see a good dose of Elijah Smith a good dose of Connor Burgess and perhaps Desmond Eden back there making things happen it's Smith with Burgess in the backfield right now and it is Smith to get the handoff Liberty should know what's coming so far they have been able to oh good job there by the Lancers number 50 that is ke re Kelly who came in and made the senior made another big tackle and got Smith and wrangled him and threw him back after he'd gained about 3 yards he ended up with no game so Burgess Burgess is really watching the clock and he's smart this is smart by Sierra to run as much clock as they can they're still 21 seconds on the play clock yeah and Smith had a three or four yard gain and then the extra effort brought him back to the line of scrimmage Burgess again - Smith takes a handoff up the middle across the 50-yard line still going down to about the 47 so it looks like it's gonna be about about third and four but strong running again by Elijah Smith and look who's out there trying to block people again Burgess timeout Liberty coach Gossage trying to keep his team in this game Ciara over there I know they need to stop here third down five to go four minutes I'm not sure I would have called my timeout right there it's tough I mean when you're down two scores he's just trying to make keep them in the game and this is a huge play I think if Sierra gets a first down here with the 25 second play clock you're looking at not much time left you've got to get two scores you need to get a stop right here both coaches have their teams huddled up you're right it's is it this could be the biggest play defensively of the night for Liberty they if they have any chance they've got to make a stop right now well I think it's a big play you know why because there's two kids down here with their iPads ready to to record the play they're taking selfies if they were just watching 20 TV exactly Lancers are back on the field come the Stallions it's like they're in a bit of a hurry burgesses in there [Music] Smith to his right see if he can he gets the football cuts it up inside and he will have a cierra first down still running that kid runs hard he does the Lancers have not been able to stop mr.
