LOCKED ON BROCK

/in /by

It isn’t often that a young man can step up and be a utility player on both sides of the football.  For East Palestine’s Brock Cheurco, it’s just another day at the office.

The Bulldog senior has been used in several different roles this year and has even switched jersey numbers to reflect the changes.  Brock started the season wearing 31, and has since flipped to a more traditional blocking number at 63.

The most impressive part of the diversity Cheurco shows doesn’t stop between the lines, as Brock is very successfully spread across his education as well.  A young man with a multitude of excellence with room for growth?  Look out!

Our Dan Figley caught up with Brock prior to the Wellsville game and gets inside the helmet, as we get to know the EP standout a bit better in this week’s Gorby’s East Palestine Player Profile: LOCKED ON BROCK!

WALKING THE WALK

/in /by

There’s much confusion about the identity of the 2018 East Palestine Bulldog Football Team.  It’s been a roller coaster ride so far for Coach Foster and the Dogs thus far, and with eyes still firmly placed on the postseason, the gator closest to the boat is EOAC play and another conference title.

There’s one young man who stands on the front lines and is ready for the challenge of the back-half of this task.  He doesn’t do much in the way of trash talking, but he certainly backs up any talking with walking the walk.  Quite simply: East Palestine Senior, Cameron Walker has the work ethic that gets things done.  His blue-collar mentality of dedication and hard work will continue to help the Bulldogs right the ship, and sail toward continued success this year.

Our Tim Figley had the chance to sit down and talk the talk with a young man who continues to get it done every down.  YSN’s East Palestine Player Profile is Cameron Walker: WALKING THE WALK.

/in /by

Have no worries, Clippers fans!  The Red and White are flying high again after their convincing win against Leetonia in Week 4.  Coach Spaite credits the victory to ball control and not turning over the pigskin, and looks to do the same this week to the Eagles of United.

This has all the makings for GAME OF THE WEEK with both teams playing for control of the EOAC early on in the season, and this game could have playoff ramifications as well when all is said and done.

Our Mark Franken checks in with Coach Spaite for this week’s Columbiana Coach’s Corner with Bob Spaite (EP 4.)

A tough road loss to United for the Bulldogs in Week 4 put a kink in the plans to start strong in the EOAC, but the Bulldogs will look to get the train back on the track against Wellsville.  Coach Foster preached consistency in the first weeks CC, and talks about if the talking led to walking, and where the Bulldogs turn their attention back to their winning ways in Week 5.

EP’S MAN OF STEELE

/in /by

It’s no surprise that there’s a buzz in Bulldogville over the success the football team has had the past few years.  East Palestine is pushing to get back to their winning ways in 2018, and after a tough open to their EOAC schedule, they look to right the ship against Wellsville.

Leading the Brown and White is a young man whose life revolved around football since he could pick one up.  EP’s Parker Sherry has been patiently waiting for his time to shine, and that time is now upon us.  Sherry is a leader and a magician on the field, but what’s even more impressive is the work he does outside the lines and in the community.

Parker prides himself on helping the younger generation of Bulldogs grow, and be excited about the game of football, and all it has to offer.

Before he makes any major announcements about his future, Sherry wants to focus in on the present.  A young man whose middle name speaks volumes in the reflection of his character, and work ethic.
