BEAVERS LEAVE NO DOUBTS AGAINST EAST LIVERPOOL

/in /by

The Beavers picked up a MASSIVE rivalry victory against the East Liverpool Potters 48-0 on Friday night.

The game started a little slow offensively, as both teams were forced to punt to start the game. The Beavers drew first blood on a 5 yard TD pass from Austin Cline to Dorian Jackson. That would be the only score in the first. Following another Potter punt, the Beavers capped off another TD drive with a 17 yard TD run by Austin Cline, silencing some “Overrated” chants from the opposing fans. Then as the first half neared an end, East Liverpool fumbled the ball inside their own 5 yard line for it to be recovered in the end zone by Zane Mccoy, and all of a sudden Beaver Local lead 21-0 at half, and shock fell over the entire stadium.

The Potters were slated to receive the second half kickoff, but they failed to recover a short, high kick and let the Beavers pounce on it. They capitalized with another Austin Cline TD run to make it 28-0, and the Potters grave had been dug. East Liverpool tried to climb back though, as they put Devin Toothman in as a wildcat QB, but that experiment was unsuccessful, as the Beavers got the ball back yet again. Blake Lucas got into the end zone, making it 35-0 and sealing the Potters fate in the third. TDs by Joe Monte and Tyler Prideau capped off the scoring, giving the Beavers a 48-0 win in a blowout nobody expected.

The Beavers will now turn their attention to the Edison Wildcats, as they meet at Pastore Field for the Beavers homecoming game. Kickoff at 7:00.

BEAVERS HOLD OFF HUBBARD

/in /by

EAST LIVERPOOL, OH- Beaver Local fresh off their first loss of the season over the weekend returned home Wednesday night looking to right the ship.  The Beavers would right that ship defeating Hubbard in 4 sets 25-14, 24-26, 25-18, 25-18.

After getting out to a fast start and dispatching the Eagles quickly in the first set, the Beavers struggled to get anything going in the second set.  “Tonight may not have been our best outing of the season as we came out a little inconsistent”  Coach Sarah Lowe on her team’s early struggles.  Hubbard’s Sophomore laden lineup, led by outside hitter Peyton Slovesko, was able to keep the Eagles in the match by winning the very contested second set forcing the Beavers to regroup between sets.  Regroup is exactly what they did in the third set as Senior Grace Hill took over at the net on her way to a team-high 17 kills.   Brooke Talbot contributed as well for the winners with 9 kills and 11 assists.  Lowe noticed her front line contributions were the key to their success “Our front line hitters were able to come through and make up for some of our deficits tonight”.

Junior Emma Joseph lead the Beavers by setting up the front-line attack with 15 assists.  Hubbard’s Slovesko kept the Beavers’  defense busy trying to spark her team in the fourth set.  The Beaver Local defense answered the call led by Bailey Bowersock and Leah Riccardo with 18 and 13 digs respectively on their way to a victory.  After her team’s victory Coach Sarah Lowe is already looking forward to the future “  Moving forward we need to build our consistency to be able to meet our long term goals for the season”

The Beavers (6-1) will look quickly to gain that consistency as they hit the road visiting fellow Buckeye 8 foe Harrison Central on Thursday.

BEAVERS SECURE FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON

/in /by

MINERVA OH- The Beavers picked up their first win of the 2021 season with a 56-7 victory over the Minerva Lions on Friday night.

The Beavers started off strong, forcing Minerva to punt inside their own 30 and scored on a 20 yard TD pass to Caden Foster on a screen play. A 3 and out followed by another score put the Beavers up 12-0. On BL’s next offensive possession, Minerva was able to pick off Austin Cline and convert the turnover to 7 points on a 22 yard TD pass from Brayden Coatea to Anthony Fletcher. Just when you thought Minerva had all the momentum, a 61 yard bomb from Cline to Dorian Jackson set up another 1 yard QB sneak for a TD to make it 19-7.

From then on the Beavers controlled the game. A 63 yard TD run from Blake Lucas, who had been known for his stellar play in the D-Line, a 54 yard TD pass from Cline to Foster, their second connection for a score on the night, and a 2 yard TD pass from Cline to Jackson, set up by a Caden Foster INT, put the Beavers up a comfortable 33 at the half, with the score 40-7. A misfire on special teams by the Lions have the Beavers a safety, and they capitalized with a Logan Blissenbach 6 yard TD run, with Blissenbach playing QB. They put the cherry on top in the fourth when Hayden Beebout scored his first career varsity TD from 2 yards out.

Beaver Local’s 56-7 win couldn’t have come at a better time, as they have a premiere home matchup with the rival East Liverpool Potters. Game kicks off next Friday at 7:00 pm on YSN.

EXLINE BECOMES X FACTOR IN BIG QUAKER WIN

/in /by

SALEM OH- The high octane Salem offense continued to roll on Friday night scoring early and often en route to a 62-35 drubbing of Beaver Local at Sebo Stadium. The Quakers would turn four Beaver Local turnovers (3 fumbles lost, 1 INT) into 27 points, which would prove to be the difference in the game.

After jumping out to a 14-0 1st quarter lead, the Quakers would open up the playbook with a 69 yard bomb from junior QB Jackson Johnson to junior classmate Caden Swiger for 69 yards and a TD. They would then would run their version of the “Quaker Special” when Swiger would connect with Johnson for a TD catch of his own, to give Salem a 27-7 lead.

The Beavers would make things interesting early in the 3rd, cutting the lead to 27-21, but the Quaker offense would slam the door on any thoughts of a BL comeback, ripping off 21 straight points.

Jackson Johnson had a record-setting night throwing for over 440 yards and 3 touchdowns through the air (Exline, Sinkovich, Swiger). Johnson wild spread the ball around having 4 receivers (Exline, Brock Young, Austin Sinkovich, and Swiger) go over 70 yards in receiving. His number one target, senior Blaize Exline would haul in 15 of those catches for over 200 yards and 5 total touchdowns (two receiving, three rushing).

Salem (2-0) continues their tour of Columbiana County next week on the road at East Liverpool.

INDIAN VALLEY COMES BACK ON THE BEAVERS

/in /by

BEAVER OH- The Indian Valley Braves spoiled the Beavers season opener on Friday night, as they took the victory by a final score of 37-20 on the first Friday night of the 2021 season

Beaver Local got off to a great start, forcing a three and out on Indian Valley’s first possession. On their first play from scrimmage following the Braves punt, a quick screen pass to Caleb White went 68 yards to the house to give the Beavers the early lead. The Beavers defense was then able to force a fumble at their own 25 yard line to take the ball back, where they would find themselves in the end zone again courtesy of Caleb White, again. This one was a quick out route that went 48 yards and took some incredible balance from White up the sideline to hit paydirt. Halfway through the first, they lead 14-0, but Indian Valley came back with ferocity, scoring 16 unanswered to end the first half and got another TD coming out of half to make it 23-14.

Late in the third, following a defensive stop by the Beavers, they were able to complete a much needed TD drive, capped off by a 30 yard TD pass from QB Austin Cline to Caden Foster, pulling the Beavers back to within 3. Early in the 4th, Beaver Local made a 1 in 1,000 mistake, as the punt deflected off the back of a blockers helmet, was scooped up by Indian Valley, and taken to the house to increase the Braves lead back to 10. An interception in the red zone for Indian Valley and a 29 yard TD run by Gavin Henry sealed the deal for the 37-20 Indian Valley victory.

Beaver Local will look to bounce back on the road with a tough test against the Salem Quakers.

The 2021 high school football season is here, and with kickoff nearing, YSN’s Michael McKenzie got the chance to sit down with one of Beaver Local’s senior captains for the upcoming season Wyatt Loy. Loy was an unsung hero for the Beavers last season, as he played a key part defensively as the ILB for the team, and served as one of the TEs in what was a very successful Beaver offense in 2020.

Loy talked about the leadership roles he has taken over the offseason and heading into week one, what the game of football has meant to him, and more on the YSN Beaver Local Player’s Profile!
