PRIMETIME FOR CLINE

EAST LIVERPOOL OH- When you look at the numbers, Beaver Local quarterback Austin Cline doesn’t get out done by too many. He had a remarkable first year under center in the Beavers offense.  So the question coming in to 2022 was how would you raise the bar? The greatest athletes never settle. You can bet all your money that a line has not settled for one good season under his belt. He has put his head down and worked harder than ever before to reach new goals.  One of those goals set this season was to bring down the interception number from last year. Only throwing 6 INT in a season is good for most, but Cline isn’t satisfied with that. So far through three games he has only thrown 1 INT, so he is well on his way to having a lower number in 2022.

Cline took the time to come on YSN’s Running Point on Thursday to give us a look into his year. He talks with DJ Yokley, and Anthony Hartwig about the rivalry week against East Liverpool, some fun team nicknames you have to hear to believe, and much more.

LIVERPOOL OUTLASTS BEAVERS ON RIVALRY NIGHT

EAST LIVERPOOL OH- RIvalries in sports can be defined by the passion and emotions the players and loyal fan bases provide as their team looks for supremacy against the other.  Look no further than 43920 when it comes to the passion rivalries can provide as East Liverpool and Beaver Local tangled Tuesday night before a raucous crowd at the Beaver Dome. The Potters would harness all the emotion of the night fueling a 4 set victory over their rivals 25-23, 21-25, 25-15, 25-17.

The Beavers early on fed off the energy their student section provided as they found themselves 2 points shy of a first set victory 23-18. East Liverpool junior Kyia White would squash any thoughts of a Beavers victory as she provided a big time kill before serving 6 straight to secure the first set comeback 25-23. Both teams in the 2nd set would trade points neither seemingly able to gain any momentum. Beaver Local held a 22-20 lead with White looking for dejavu as she stepped to the service line looking to spark another comeback. The Beavers Briar Wolski had better plans as she took an Emma Jospeh set and ripped it down the line to quell any thoughts of that comeback as the Beavers took set 2, 25-21.

The Beaver Dome was alive at that point as both squads tried to channel the energy their fan bases were providing heading into the 3rd set. Each team playing through communication issues looked for any edge they could get to separate themselves from the other. Tied 14-14 the Potters, behind the experience of  Kyia White who provided a couple of heads up plays at the net, reeled off 10 of the next 11 points on their way to a 25-15 3rd set victory. The inexperience of the Beavers shined a little too brightly in the 4th set as they never were able to challenge the Potters as the blue and white finished the night with a 25-17 4th set victory.

The victory for East Liverpool was a team effort as Kyia White contributed 14 kills and 20 digs. Kenzie Headley contributed 9 kills and Ava Green added 5 kills of her own. Dalani Ice set the table all night with 27 assists and Faith Grafton led the defense with 25 digs. For the Beavers, Briar Wolski had 14 kills and 5 digs. Peyton Roberts contributed 15 kills and 8 digs while Aleia Evanko added 24 digs and 18 assists. Chloe Reed anchored the Beavers back row defense with 25 digs.

Both teams return to action Thursday, as Beaver Local (3-3) welcomes Harrison Central, East Liverpool (3-0) looks to stay unbeaten as they entertain Oak Glen.

A LONG NIGHT ENDS IN BEAVERS VICTORY

EAST LIVERPOOL OH- The Beavers got in the win column on Friday night, as they defeated the Linden McKinley Panthers 42-14.

The Beavers got the scoring started quickly, as Caleb White took a screen pass from Austin Cline 61 yards to the house on the first play of the game. Linden McKinley responded with an opening TD drive of their own, as Christopher Towns hit Camr’on Gunnell Jr. for a 10 yard score. Neither team scored for the rest of the first quarter, but the Beavers struck quickly in the second, as Austin Cline and Noah Bowyer connected for Bowyer’s first score of the season on the first play of the quarter. The Beavers got the ball back and struck again, as Dylan Ferguson and Austin Cline connected for a beautiful 69 yard TD . Linden McKinley then responded on the first play of their next drive with a 67 yard TD from Christopher Town to Phillip Towns.

 

The Beavers then got the ball back before half and Caleb White put it in the end zone for the second time of the night on a 7 yard TD run, as it was 28-14 at the half. One big storyline from this game was the insane amount of penalties, as it seemed there was a flag on every single play, but the Beavers were able to persevere, holding Linden McKinley scoreless in the second half. The Beavers got things started in the second half by forcing a punt and then went back to Caleb White for a 29 yard TD, as he took the oss from Cline to the house for the hat trick. Blake Lucas ran it in from 2 yards out in the 4th for his first TD of the season and the true dagger in the game, as the Beavers took it 42-14 to get into the win column.

The Beavers will travel to East Liverpool next week for their rivalry matchup with the Potters.

SALEM WINS ON THE ROAD

EAST LIVERPOOL OH- The Beavers and Quakers went at it on Friday night in a high scoring affair that saw the Quakers take home victory by a score of 40-27

 

The Quakers got the scoring started on a TD pass from QB Jackson Johnson to Ross Davidson. Salem kept their foot on the gas on both sides of the ball, forcing multiple punts and turnovers in the first half and moving the ball at will, as Jackson Johnson led the offense to two more scores before half by way of a Dominic Maniscalco TD run and a Jackson Johnson TD run. Going down 21-0 at half, the Beavers came out with a spark in the second half, with a solid kick return by Blake Lucas to set up a 37 yard TD pass from Austin Cline to Dylan Ferguson.

 

Salem decided to get right back at the Beavers with a long TD pass from Jackson Johnson to Donnie Oesch. A couple drives later the Beavers connected on a 14 yard TD pass, as Cline found Caleb White to cut the deficit back to 2 scores, but once again Salem answered. Dillon Monroy caught a TD pass from Johnson to stretch the lead back out to 3 scores, but the Beavers were never going down without a fight. On a roll out, Cline fired down the field for White as the two connected for the second time on the day, this time from 44 yards out. It was a 2 score game heading into the 4th, and Johnson showed the savviness of a 4 year starter, putting together a long, time consuming TD drive that he capped off with another TD run, his 5th total TD of the day, that out the lead wide enough to win the game. Beaver Local wasn’t ready to give up though, as they put together a quick score via a Cline QB sneak TD, but Salem got the ball on the kickoff and didn’t give it back before the clock reached zeros, as the Quaker offense showed up and showed out in the win.

 

The Quakers go back home for a matchup with East Liverpool, while the Beavers get a chance to get in the win column on their home field against Minerva.

BEAVERS PROTECT HOME FIELD AGAINST LIVERPOOL

EAST LIVERPOOL OH-

The Beaver Local Boys Soccer team started the season vs arch rival East Liverpool with a 2-1 victory in front of a large crowd at Fighting Beaver Stadium on Saturday night.  The game did not disappoint as both teams goalies started hot by making key saves to keep the game scoreless for the first 20 minutes of the game. That was until the Potters Wyatt McCune was able to get behind the Beavers defense and find the back of the night to put the visiting team up 1-0. This was short lived though as the Beavers Kaleb Mays was finally able to beat Potters goalie Malachi Reed to notch the score 1-1, where it would stand at half.

The 2nd half was much like the first, however things seemed to get tighter on both sides.  The Beavers and Potters style of wide open play seemed to change as more of a field position battle ensued.  The game remained tied at 1-1 for the duration of the second half, until just under 5 minutes left to play the Beavers  went on attack.  This is when a flurry of shots on goal led to  Junior Colin Gaydos  burying a rebound and eventual  game winner to the back of the net giving the Beavers a 2-1 victory over their rivals.   The Beavers (1-0) will look to keep things rolling at home on Tuesday when the Carrollton Warriors come to town.  Game is set to start at 7:00pm.
