Raiders Clip Falcons

WARREN, OHIO – The Austintown Fitch Falcons came into the game 3-0, knowing the next four games of the season was going to be a gauntlet. On the other sideline was a team looking to even their record at 2-2, in the Warren G. Harding Raiders. It was a defensive struggle through the first half until late in the second quarter when Harding quarterback Elijah Taylor found Ty Artis on a 22 yard fade for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead at half.

Fitch came out in the second half looking to find their rhythm but were stymied at every turn. Harding’s Noah Murray tacked on a 35 yard field goal in the third quarter to put the Raiders ahead 10-0. Fitch’s offense was held scoreless until late in the fourth quarter when Devin Sherwood found Chris Evans on a 32 yard completion to the Harding one yard line. Sherwood then snuck it in himself to cut the deficit to three, 10-7, which would turn out to be the final.

Leading the Falcons in passing was Devin Sherwood with 10 completions on 15 attempts for 106 yards. Leading the Falcons on the ground was Devin Sherwood with 17 carries for 56 yards and one touchdown. The leading receiver for the Falcons was Chris Evans with 3 receptions for 58 yards. Defensively, Chris Scott and A.J. Winterburn led the way for the Falcons with 6 tackles each.

Up next for the Austintown Fitch Falcons is a home match up against the Benedictine Bengals out of Cleveland, OH.

FITCH FIGHTS THROUGH IRISH

/in /by

AUSTINTOWN, OH- There’s a special feeling in the air of Austintown.  The Fitch Falcons are on a mission and are doing it for their late leader, Coach Phil Annarella.  It has all Falcons on the same flight path, and that didn’t change last Friday night against Ursuline as the Falcons took the lead in the first quarter and never looked back, winning 27-7.

The dual-quarterback system gave Ursuline fits all night as Devin Sherwood and Nate Leskovac teamed up for 3 rushing touchdowns, and one through the air to Todd Simons in the second frame.

The Falcons racked up 91 yards through the air, and 270 yards on the ground.  The Irish failed to get their ground game rolling as they ended up with -31 yards on the night.

The lone highlight for the Irish was the much-anticipated connection of Brady Shannon to Matt Reardon for a 22-yard touchdown strike.

The Irish (0-2) will turn their focus to Mentor Lake Catholic, while Fitch (2-0) heads on the road to Glen Oak.
