CHANEY FOOTBALL COACH’S CORNER/PLAYER PROFILE SPECIAL

YOUNGSTOWN, OH – When you think of Chaney football you think of head coach Chris Amill and then some of the stars on the football team. When you think of what you want in a football player, consistency, calm under pressure, and a leader usually come to mind. The Coach Amill and the Chaney Cowboys have all of that and much more in their two star players, Delshawn Petrosky and Jason Hewlett. Their leadership is what keeps the ‘Boys moving forward even when it might seem like they might be out of answers, Petrosky and Hewlett always gets their team ready to play and lead by example. The confidence they have built up over the past two seasons is what makes them true leaders this year for the Chaney Cowboys.

When asked what makes Delshawn the player that he is, his response is simply “the team around me.” Petrosky is always the first person to give credit to his surrounding cast and build his teammates up before he takes the credit for himself. His playing style is identical to that as well, as he is one to get everyone involved on and off the field as a leader and great teammate. When talking to Jason, he echoed much of the same. Hewlett is all about making the team better and winning football games before taking credit or getting numbers for himself. Jason focuses and prides himself on being a big, strong, physical football player who imposes his will on both sides of the ball as a leader in the secondary from his safety position but also on offense as one of the top receivers and even sometimes the quarterback for this Chaney squad.

YSN’s own, Steve Leslie, took some time this week to talk with the Chaney stars and head ball coach, as they talked about their goals moving into the playoffs, what Delshawn’s and Jason’s personal success can do on the football field to lead the Cowboys throughout the season and playoffs, what their plans for after high school are, some takeaways on his star players from Coach Amill’s perspective, what Coach has in store for us in this first round of the playoffs, and much much more.

COWBOYS CORRAL MOONEY

YOUNGSTOWN OH-  People usually talk about college football when it comes to Saturday, but one thing they forgot was Saturday night high school football between two Steel Valley Conference rivals in the Cardinal Mooney Cardinals and the Chaney Cowboys.  Mooney got their first win last week against East, meanwhile, Chaney was close but could not finish.  On Saturday, both teams were looking to win and gain some momentum for the later half of the season.  

 

Most of the first half saw both teams struggle to move the ball as both defenses were really good.  That was until near the end of the half, where Jamie Melton channeled his Ezekiel Elliott, going 73-yards to the house making it 7-0 Cowboys.  There was then another error for Mooney a few possessions later as Brian Phillibin was backed in his own endzone.  The snap went over his head leading to a safety and making it 9-0 Cowboys at the half.  

 

The same happened later in the third, but instead of the safety, Phillibins punt would be blocked, which was then returned by Jason Hewlett for a touchdown making it 16-0.  Chaney would score two more times as the Mooney defense just had no answer in the second half thanks to a Delshawn Petrosky 48-yard pass to Bryant Douglas and a Darius Humbert five-yard run as Chaney rolled over Mooney 30-0.  

 

Petrosky finished 13 of 24 yards passing with 193 yards and a touchdown.  He also had 10 carries for 88 yards.  Chaney had a total of 408 yards while Mooney finished with 123 yards.  

 

Chaney (1-3) will head to Canfield stadium as they look to upset the undefeated Canfield Cardinals (4-0) while Cardinal Mooney (1-3) will head to Boardman to face the Boardman Spartans (2-2).
