ATWATER, OH — The Springfield Tigers delivered a commanding performance in their Mahoning Valley Athletic Conference (MVAC) Scarlet Division opener, defeating the Waterloo Vikings 49-6 on the road Friday night.

The Tigers’ offense and defense clicked early in the game. Springfield’s Dante Gentile opened the scoring on with a 6-yard touchdown run, followed by a successful extra point by Kasen Kosek. Waterloo briefly answered with a 30-yard touchdown pass from Landon McClain to Matthew Ralston, though their subsequent two-point conversion attempt failed.
Springfield quickly regained control as Wyatt Kuboff’s 70-yard run set up a 3-yard rushing touchdown by Gentile. The Tigers further extended their lead with a 40-yard interception return for a touchdown by Isaac Lamorticella, with Kosek adding the extra point to make it 21-6.

In the second quarter, Springfield continued to assert dominance. Brayden Baird threw two touchdown passes to Carson Cunningham, one for 35 yards and another for 15 yards, both followed by successful extra points from Kosek. Despite an interception by Waterloo’s Luke Thomas, the Vikings were unable to capitalize, trailing 35-6 at halftime.

The Tigers kept their foot on the gas in the third quarter. Joey Centofanti added two rushing touchdowns, first from 4 yards out and then from 6 yards, with both extra points converted by Kosek. The game was effectively put out of reach with the running clock starting due to the 35-point deficit.

IT BETTER BE BAELYN

/in /by

NEW MIDDLETOWN OH-  Everyone in Springfield knows the Brungard name by now, with the family being one of the most decorated in Tiger athletics history. When Baelyn Brungard started her high school career, she was determined to carve her own story into that legacy. Now as a junior, Baelyn has done just that, becoming a key reason for the Tigers’ success on the volleyball court.

Volleyball is Baelyn’s sole focus, and she dedicates all her time to honing her craft. It’s clear when you watch her play that every hour she’s put in is paying off. Her skills are sharp, and her game has reached another level as she pours her energy into becoming the best player she can be.

Baelyn has thrived in every role the Tigers have thrown her into. Whether she’s holding down the back row on defense, attacking from the outside, or even setting like she did as a freshman, Baelyn does it all. She’s the ultimate jack of all trades, and no matter where Springfield needs her, she steps up and delivers.

Statistically, Brungard is a standout. She’s posted 113 kills, averaging 3.6 per set, ranking second on the team. She leads the squad in digs with 127, and she’s second in aces with 27. Baelyn also leads the team in serve receives with 149, and she’s even chipped in with 11 assists this season, showing off her versatility.

With plenty of time left in her career, Baelyn’s story at Springfield is far from finished. But as she transitions into her role as an upperclassman this season, it’s obvious she’s turned up the intensity.
