NO REST FOR WEINGART

/in /by

In football, it’s more about the win-loss column than it is the names in the box score.  For Salem Senior Luke Weingart, his production has not taken away from the fact that the Quakers are undefeated so far in 2018.

A total team player, Weingart is the type of player for the Quakers that will do whatever is asked of him in order to help his team succeed.  It just so happens that Weingart’s number was called over and again last Friday against East Liverpool, and when 10 was called, Weingart answered in a big way.

YSN’s Jarrod Niederhiser sat down with the Salem Senior to discuss the difference between last year and this current campaign, as well as much more.

This week’s Salem Player Profile is: NO REST FOR WEINGART

One look at Salem Senior Robbie Sarginger, and you know he’s all business.

Thus far he’s helped the Quakers establish a 3-0 record to start their 2018 campaign.  The issue is, this team, this class, and this city are not content with small victories.  They want to make history.

Sarginger is helping out in any capacity he can to help break through into new territory for Salem.

SALEM OUTLASTS LIVERPOOL

/in /by

SALEM, OH- The Salem Quakers continued their winning ways with a 28-14 win of the Potters of East Liverpool on Friday night at Reilly Stadium. The Quakers were able to capitalize off of Potter miscues and finish drives on their way to their 3rd straight victory.

The Quakers opened the scoring in the 1st quarter with a 65-yard touchdown strike from Turner Johnson to Josh Lehwald, and with the 2 point conversion took an 8-0 lead. The Potters answered back on special teams when Nick Woodyard brought back a punt 53 yards for a score to pull East Liverpool within one at 8-7. After a 2nd quarter interception by Niko Walter, the Quakers struck again through the air from 34 yards out from Johnson to Luke Weingart making the halftime score 14-7 in favor of the Quakers.

The Quakers looked to get some breathing room when Cade Campolito scampered 21 yards for a score to give Salem a 20-7 lead and what seemed to be some breathing room. The Potters would not go quietly when sophomore Nate Davis came off the bench in the 4th quarter to hit Woodyard on a 23-yard touchdown strike to cut their deficit to 20-14. Needing to swing the momentum, Niko Walter took matters into his own hands and answered back right away with an 80-yard kick return to put the Quakers in great field position. Turner Johnson would find Luke Weingart again, this time from 20 yards out, and with the 2 point conversion, took a 28-14 lead and that’s where things would end up.

Salem moves to 3-0 on the season and opens EBC play when they host Carrollton at Reilly Stadium. Tune into YSNlive.com/Salem for the call, pregame starts at 6:30, kickoff at 7:00.

GOTTA GO WITH NIKO

/in /by

It’s common knowledge that when High School football players talk to coaching staffs, they profess their love for either offense, or defense.  Typically it will show on Friday nights as well, because the player will shine on one side of the ball.

For Salem Junior Niko Walter, he extinguished the East Palestine offense in Week 1 with two interceptions, as well as kept the Bulldog defense guessing with 2 carries out of the backfield for 15 yards, 4 catches for 92 yards and a TD…..Oh, and he threw for a score as well.

All in a day’s work for Niko.
