Boys Soccer: Gonzaga 4, Paul VI 1

By Ryan Mink

Gonzaga’s boys soccer team advanced to the WCAC finals for the ninth straight time Thursday, beating Paul VI 4-1.

The Eagles are awaiting Friday’s result between DeMatha and O’Connell to see who they will face Sunday in the finals at Catholic University.

“We played very well today,” Gonzaga Coach Scott Waller said. “I was very excited. The boys definitely put their best foot forward.”

Paul VI gave the Eagles (20-1-2) some trouble earlier this season when the Panthers went up 2-0 at one point before Gonzaga made some changes and stormed back with three goals in the second half.

But Gonzaga controlled Thursday’s game from the start. Paul VI didn’t score until there was only a couple minutes left in the game.

Dan Rice opened the scoring off an assist off the head of John McMurray. Chris Perez notched the second goal on a counter-attack with an assist from Marcus Douglass. Rice returned the favor late in the game, setting up a McMurray goal with a beautiful cross. The Stags’ final goal came off the foot of Douglass with help from Sean Cantarella.

Waller said it’s tough to judge whether the Eagles are playing their best soccer of the year at this point. But one thing is for sure, Gonzaga better be if it’s going to win a third straight WCAC title.

“I’m excited about the finals,” Waller said. “Our boys are excited.”

Football: Paul VI 41, Gonzaga 38 (2 OT)

By Ryan Mink
rmink@digitalsports.com

It was double overtime, for the second straight game, and Paul VI running back Idreis Augustas wasn’t going to be stopped.

He took the handoff at the 14-yard line,  spun through a tackle at the 9-yard line, stiff-armed through a pair of Gonzaga defenders and shed one more at the goal line for the game-winning touchdown last Friday.

That sent off a wild celebration at Paul VI last Friday night as the Panthers beat Gonzaga, 41-35, on Senior Night. It was emotional for more reasons than that. Paul VI lost the previous Friday night to St. John’s in double overtime, fell by just 8 points to DeMatha the weekend before that and lost to Bishop McNamara at home in the final seconds before that.

The mantra on the Paul VI sidelines as the game wore on was “Not today,” as in, the Panthers weren’t going to stand for another crushing loss. And Augustas, who rushed for five touchdowns and 268 yards embodied that attitude.

“Our kids have really hung together and it’s a testament to the type of players we have,” Paul VI Coach Patrick McGroarty said.

Paul VI improves to 3-5 overall after notching its first WCAC win of the season. Gonzaga fell to 2-6 overall and 2-3 in the conference, putting the Eagles currently in a three-way tie with O’Connell and Bishop McNamara for the fourth and final WCAC playoff spot.

The Panthers scored on their first drive, capped by an Augustas 19-yard touchdown run. But Gonzaga sophomore quarterback Kevin Hogan was slinging. Hogan, who finished 12-of-23 passing for 301 yards and four touchdowns, set up an Alan Elder 15-yard touchdown run.

Paul VI answered back just minutes before the end of the half with an 18-yard touchdown reception by Dominic Sanders but Hogan connected with Ricky Neville on a 78-yard touchdown pass on Gonzaga’s first offensive play of the next series. Gonzaga took a 21-14 lead into halftime on a 20-yard pass from Hogan to Chris Speros.

The Panthers, however, scored the first two touchdowns of the second half, both on Augustas runs. The Eagles responded with a  33-yard pass from Hogan to Neville, Paul VI countered with another Augustas touchdown run and lastly Gonzaga, with just 35 seconds left in regulation, scored its final touchdown on a 36-yard heave to Max Johnston.

Gonzaga attempted to go for the win on a two-point conversion but after the play seemed to be successful, a penalty was called. Add on a false start and the Eagles were relying on kicker Robbie Colas to make a long extra point, which he did, to send the game to overtime.

Paul VI got the ball first and began to drive once again behind its strong offensive line and Augustas. But the senior running back fumbled on the 8-yard line. Sanders recovered for Paul VI but he was stripped and Hogan recovered that fumble to end Paul VI’s first overtime attempt.

The Eagles hardly moved anywhere on their first possession and were left with Colas attempting a near 50-yard field goal, which fell short – but not by much.

Gonzaga had the first possession of the second overtime and quickly drove to the 1-yard line with first-and-goal. But Paul VI stuffed the Eagles on three consecutive plays, forcing a short field goal by Colas.

It took Paul VI only two plays to capitalize. The first was an 11-yard run up the middle by Dan McGroarty in which he dragged a handful of Eagles several yards. The second play was Augustas’ bouncing, spinning, powerful touchdown run to end the game and ease the Panthers’ late-game pain.

WCAC Football Poll: Week 8

WCAC Football Top-10

1.    Good Counsel, 8-0/5-0, LW 1
The Falcons are getting the big plays from Jelani Jenkins, Caleb Porzel, Tyler Campbell, E.J. Scott and Mike Wallace on offense. But they still had way too many turnovers against St. John’s. That’s something that, despite the talent the Falcons have, could end up biting them come playoffs.
Next: Saturday at Gonzaga, 2:30

2.    DeMatha, 7-2/4-1, LW 2
DeMatha is on a roll and certainly looks better now than when it faced Good Counsel. Tommy Chroniger seems to be getting more elusive as a runner and Marcus Coker is developing as a bruising back.
Next: Saturday vs. St. John’s, 2:30

3.    St. John’s, 6-2/4-1, LW 3
It wasn’t pretty for St. John’s on Friday but nobody has put up a good game against Good Counsel. The Cadets just committed too many turnovers to win. This week’s game against DeMatha could show more about just how good St. John’s is.
Next: Saturday at DeMatha, 2:30

4.    O’Connell, 5-3/2-3, LW 4
The Knights have now lost two straight against the WCAC’s top two teams, Good Counsel and DeMatha. This has forced them into a three-way tie with Gonzaga and McNamara. The Knights have a blowout win over Gonzaga under their belt and need a win over McNamara to reach the playoffs.
Next: Saturday vs. McNamara, 2:30

5.    Paul VI, 3-5/1-4, LW 7
The Panthers finally pulled out a close win over Gonzaga. Just think, if they had held on to beat McNamara and topped St. John’s in double overtime, the Panthers would be well on their way to a playoff spot right now.
Next: Saturday at Archbishop Carroll, 2:30

6.    Gonzaga, 2-6/2-3, LW 5
The Eagles put themselves in a much tougher spot after losing to Paul VI. It doesn’t get any easier from here with Good Counsel next and St. John’s after that.
Next: Saturday vs. Good Counsel, 2:30

7.    McNamara, 4-4/2-3, LW 6
Bishop McNamara needs to beat O’Connell, simple as that. If they do, they’re in the front seat for the fourth playoff spot. If not, they’re out.
Next: Saturday at O’Connell, 2:30

8.    Bishop Ireton, 4-5, LW 8
The Cardinals beat up on St. Mary’s Ryken, the other pseudo-WCAC team, this past week to end its losing skid. Sidewell Friends, who has only two wins in which one came against Ryken, presents an opportunity to get to .500.
Next: Saturday at Sidwell Friends, 2

9.    Archbishop Carroll, 1-7/0-5, LW 9
The Lions fell to McNamara but didn’t go without a little roar. The two teams were tied at 7 before McNamara scored two straight touchdowns. Carroll also caused a safety.
Next: Saturday vs. Paul VI, 2:30

10.    St. Mary’s Ryken, 1-6, LW 10
Another loss but Ryken has a week off to mull things over and keep on improving.
Next: Friday, Nov. 7 at Bullis, 7

Monday Morning Quarterback: Week 8

Weekly Awards

Offensive Player of the Week: Tyler Campbell, Good Counsel
Campbell had his second perfect game of the season – with the other coming against DeMatha – in a blowout win over St. John’s. Campbell went 9-for-9 for 198 yards and has been a major reason why Good Counsel has established itself as the conference’s clear frontrunner.

Defensive Player(s) of the Week: DeMatha Stags
The Stags shut out a very good O’Connell team and seem to be rolling now. DeMatha, who almost posted a shutout against Gonzaga last week as well, pounced on four turnovers.

Special Teams Player of the Week: Caleb Porzel, Good Counsel
Porzel unseats St. John’s kicker Matt Elsasser because he continues to rack up the special teams touchdowns. This time he returned a punt 62 yards for a touchdown against St. John’s.

Offensive Play of the Week: Idreis Augustas, Paul VI
Augustas ran in a 14-point touchdown in the second overtime to give Paul VI a dramatic win over Gonzaga. Augustas rushed for five touchdowns and 268 yards on 36 carries. OK, he definitely could be the Offensive Player of the Week, but let’s spread the love. Either way, Augustas deserves MAJOR props.

Defensive Play of the Week: Paul VI
It wasn’t the greatest overall performance for the Panthers defense, but Paul VI held Gonzaga to a field goal in the first possession of a second overtime, allowing the Panthers to finally pull out a close win.

Quote of the Week: Coach Pat McGroarty
“Not today.”

Round-Up

Game of the Week: Paul VI 41, Gonzaga 38 (2 OT)
Who would have thought this would be the game of the week when the WCAC’s first and second-place teams (Good Counsel and St. John’s) faced each other and the third and fourth-place teams (DeMatha and O’Connell) also met. This one was a slugfest that came down to the wire. Must mention that Gonzaga quarterback Kevin Hogan threw for 301 yards.
FULL VIDEOS HIGHLIGHTS TO COME!

Bishop Ireton 51, St. Mary’s Ryken 0
Ireton is like St. Mary’s Ryken in that they are both independents largely competing in the WCAC. Now Ryken can see an example.

Bishop McNamara 27, Carroll 9
The Mustangs get a win over an improving Carroll team after losing two straight games. Quarterback Kevin Clark ran for one touchdown and threw for another as McNamara put up a balanced offensive attack.

Good Counsel 42, St. John’s 3
The Falcons got the usual from Jelani Jenkins and Caleb Porzel — five touchdowns combined — and a perfect game from quarterback Tyler Campbell, which is starting to also become the usual. Turnovers hurt St. John’s. FULL VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS TO COME!

DeMatha 41, O’Connell 0
Turnovers killed the Knights and
DeMatha is starting to get going. They Stags have now scored 76 points
in their past two games and have allowed just 6 points. Tommy
Chroniger’s legs are a major weapon. FULL VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS TO COME!

WCAC Football Poll: Week 7

WCAC Football Top-10

1.    Good Counsel, 7-0, LW 1
Good Counsel made short work of McNamara but St. John’s will be a different story. Then again, I thought the Good Counsel-DeMatha game would be a barn-burner. Good Counsel blew out O’Connell who nearly beat St. John’s.
Next: Saturday at McNamara, 2

2.    DeMatha, 5-2, LW 2
The Stags beat up on Gonzaga in D.C. but will likely face a more challenging test this week against O’Connell. Tommy Chroniger continues to impress with his running abilities.
Next: Saturday at Gonzaga, 2

3.    St. John’s, 6-1, LW 3
The Cadets are becoming the master of pulling out close games. Ed Thomas continues to impress and even quarterback Robert Cadle is getting a lot of reps and doing well. St. John’s needs to keep it close against the Falcons and hope to pull it out.
Next: Friday at Good Counsel, 7

4.    O’Connell, 5-2, LW 4
O’Connell was tied with Carroll at halftime. Joshua Trimble had 19 rushes for 95 yards to pull the Knights to a win.
Next: Saturday vs. DeMatha, 2

5.    Gonzaga, 2-5, LW 5
The Eagles had a lot of momentum going into the DeMatha game. They have to try to get up again realizing that Paul VI is a very good team hungry to get a win.
Next: Friday at Paul VI, 2

6.    McNamara, 3-4, LW 6
The Mustangs slip below .500 and it’s looking difficult for them to get into the WCAC playoffs. They need to beat Carroll on Saturday and then hope to take out O’Connell. McNamara’s defense needs to step up after being thrashed the last two games.
Next: Saturday vs. Carroll, 2

7.    Paul VI, 2-5, LW 7
You’ve got to feel for the Panthers. In the past three weeks they’ve taken Bishop McNamara, DeMatha and St. John’s to the wire and come up with three losses to show for it. This may be the week to rebound.
Next: Friday vs. Gonzaga, 7

8.    Bishop Ireton, 2-5, LW 8
Ireton lost its second straight against Riverdale Baptist and is struggling without the senior leadership it had last season. A game against Ryken could help ease the pain, however.
Next: Saturday vs. St. Mary’s Ryken, 2

9.    Archbishop Carroll, 1-6, LW 9
Carroll gave O’Connell a run for its money in perhaps the most surprising game of the weekend. There’s no doubt that the Lions have talent, but can they put together a full game and win?
Next: Saturday at McNamara, 2

10.    St. Mary’s Ryken, 1-6, LW 10
It’s not pretty in Southern Maryland now, but I have no doubt that Bob Harmon and the Knights are working hard and will improve in the coming seasons. They have another chance to improve against a team like themselves, an WCAC football outsider.
Next: Saturday at Bishop Ireton, 2

Monday Morning Quarterback: Week 7

Weekly Awards

Offensive Player of the Week: Ed Thomas, St. John’s
Thomas led St. John’s to a double overtime win over Paul VI. He threw five times for 109 yards and two touchdowns passes, including the game-winning touchdown pass. He also ran 26 times for 111 yards and one touchdown that tied the game to send it to a second overtime.

Defensive Player of the Week: Louis Young, Good Counsel
The possession after catching a 40-yard touchdown pass against McNamara, Young picked off a pass and returned it 75 yards for a touchdown.

Special Teams Player of the Week: Matt Elsasser, St. John’s
A third time straight! Elsasser has really proven to be a weapon at Coach Joe Patterson’s disposal. He booted two field goals, one from 31 yards and another from 23, and went 4-for-4 on extra point attempts.

Offensive Play of the Week: Jeff Knox, DeMatha
Knox took the end-around handoff and turned the corner against Gonzaga. He was soon met by a Purple Eagle but the 6-foot-3 Knox leapt over him and stretched the ball out over the goal line. Just awesome.

Defensive Play of the Week: Raheem Cardwell, DeMatha
Cardwell intercepted Gonzaga’s first pass of the second half, setting up a DeMatha touchdown that started the rout on Saturday. Otherwise, it could have been a close game.

Hit of the Week: Marcus Coker, DeMatha
This marks the first time than an offensive player gets hit of the week, but Coker deserves it for running over a Gonzaga player on this 5-yard carry. You have to watch closely but this is a railroad collision.

Quote of the Week: Raheem Cardwell, DeMatha
“Smiling starts enthusiasm.”

Round-Up

Game of the Week: St. John’s 34, Paul VI 27 (2OT)
These two teams went back-and-forth all night. Paul VI running back Idreius Augustas kept the Panthers in the game with 132 yards rushing but Ed Thomas was just too much down the stretch as he relied on his legs to pull the Cadets most of the way and his arm to win it in double overtime.
(VIDEO OF THIS GAME HOPEFULLY POSTED IN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS)

DeMatha 35, Gonzaga 6
The Stags needed to show they could handle a team and they did just that behind a balanced effort. DeMatha did most of its damage on the ground behind Tommy Chroniger, Marcus Coker and Aaron Conaway.

Good Counsel 42, McNamara 6
Caleb Porzel and Jelani Jenkins did their thing, rushing for 112 and 72 yards, respectively, and combining for two touchdowns. Louis Young had a standout game on offense and defense as the Falcons continue to roll over their WCAC competition.

O’Connell 20, Carroll 14
The Lions certainly put more of a scare into O’Connell than many would have expected.

Riverdale Baptist 20, Bishop Ireton 14
The Cardinals gave a good Riverdale Baptist team quite a challenge but came up short, losing their second straight game.

Sidwell Friends 40, St. Mary’s Ryken 0
The Knights are shut out for the second straight game and fall to previously winless Sidwell Friends.

Football: DeMatha 35, Gonzaga 6

By Ryan Mink
rmink@digitalsports.com

CLICK HERE TO VIEW VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS!
CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE PHOTO GALLERY!

Last week DeMatha football Coach Bill McGregor implemented a new drill at practice. He wanted to work on his team’s smiling.

McGregor, as did the rest of the team, felt the Stags have been uptight from the pressures of living up to last year’s phenomenal senior class and extending DeMatha’s WCAC championship streak to an unprecedented six straight.

So McGregor asked his players to smile, to enjoy themselves.

After Saturday’s 35-6 win over Gonzaga, McGregor told his players to show him their faces and he checked for those smiles once again. And this time he found them.

“Smiling starts enthusiasm,” DeMatha senior linebacker Raheem Cardwell said. “Then we pass it on and pass it on and work together. When one gets up the whole team gets up.”

Cardwell said the Stags have felt down this season. First there was the shocking loss to Gilman on Sept. 12 in which DeMatha seemed to have the game in hand. On Oct. 2 the Stags took a 42-21 loss on national television to Good Counsel and followed that up with a less-than-stellar performance against Paul VI in which they won 21-13.

After the Paul VI game McGregor gathered the team and when he looked at his players faces he saw them nonverbally asking, “Did we do ok or did we not do ok?”

“The answer is yes, we did absolutely fantastic,” McGregor said. “We won the football game, 21-13, and it was a big, big win. Any WCAC win is a great win.”

That’s when McGregor started smile checks.

“The level of expectation is very very high and the kids are doing a great job,” McGregor said. “We’re going to be happy.”

After stalling on its first drive, DeMatha (5-2, 3-1) scored on its second in just four plays. Quarterback Tommy Chroniger got the offense rolling with back-to-back runs eating up 31 yards and Jeff Knox finished it off with a leaping end-around for the touchdown.

But Gonzaga (2-5, 2-2), who was coming off a huge win against McNamara, hung around despite not being able to generate much offense. Gonzaga never made it past the 50-yard line in the first half.

DeMatha, who was hampered by penalties all game, scored its second touchdown on a long drive featuring 35 yards rushing from Marcus Coker and 60 by Aaron Conaway, who ran 17 yards for the touchdown.

The Stags drove one more time at the end of the first half but were forced to settle for a 22-yard field goal on first down by Michael Branthover to give DeMatha a 15-0 halftime lead.

The score shouldn’t have been surprising considering last year’s WCAC champion team only beat Gonzaga, 7-6, in a fight to the very end.

But this year’s team essentially put the game away on the first play of the second half. Gonzaga sophomore quarterback Kevin Hogan stepped back and thought Cardwell was moving to his right. Cardwell instead slid to his left and intercepted the ball right at his chest. Two plays later, DeMatha’s Coker was in the end zone and the Stags had a 22-0 lead 47 seconds into the second half.

“I just played my coverage, did my job and the ball just happened to be placed in hands,” Cardwell said.

The Stags said the win would provide a good confidence boost before next week’s game against O’Connell, who is also 5-2 overall.

“We know we have our hands full when we go over to O’Connell next week,” McGregor said.

WCAC Football Poll: Week 6

WCAC Football Top-10

1.    Good Counsel, 6-0, LW 1
After a 41-14 win over O’Connell last Friday, it’s beginning to look like Good Counsel and everyone else.
Next: Saturday at McNamara, 2

2.    DeMatha, 3-2, LW 2
The Stags were challenged by Paul VI, which either shows that DeMatha is beatable by someone other than Good Counsel this year or shows that Paul VI is a whole lot better than 2-4.
Next: Saturday at Gonzaga, 2

3.    St. John’s, 5-1, LW 3
The Cadets are getting closer and closer to knocking DeMatha out of the No. 2 spot. They can make a case for that by having a better showing against Paul VI than DeMatha did. St. John’s is loving the maturation of Ed Thomas at quarterback.
Next: Friday at Paul VI, 7

4.    O’Connell, 4-2, LW 4
The Knights lost their second straight game against a top WCAC opponent but did play hard against Good Counsel. O’Connell is still in good shape and in the driver’s seat for a playoff berth.
Next: Saturday at Archbishop Carroll, 2

5.    Gonzaga, 2-4, LW 7
A win over McNamara is huge for the Eagles. A win over DeMatha would be much, much bigger. The offensive line will have to step up again for the Eagles.
Next: Saturday vs. DeMatha, 2

6.    McNamara, 3-3, LW 5
There wasn’t many good things to take from Saturday’s game for McNamara. In more bad news, Good Counsel is next. However, this could be the perfect opportunity for McNamara to erase Saturday’s memory.
Next: Saturday vs. Good Counsel, 2

7.    Paul VI, 2-4, LW 6
The Panthers have shown they have the ability to challenge some of the WCAC’s top teams. They weren’t far behind DeMatha and were extremely close to beating McNamara. Now they just need to win one and they get another chance Friday.
Next: Friday vs. St. John’s, 7

8.    Bishop Ireton, LW 8
The momentum Bishop Ireton gained in a win over previously undefeated St. Stephen’s/St. Agnes was lost in a loss to St. Christopher’s. The offense put up 21 but the defense can’t give up 45 points.
Next: Friday at Riverdale Baptist, 7

9.    Archbishop Carroll, LW 9
Carroll couldn’t handle St. John’s and O’Connell won’t be much easier if at all.
Next: Saturday vs. O’Connell, 2

10.    St. Mary’s Ryken, LW 10
St. Mary’s Ryken is still taking its lumps but has a chance to get its second win of the season Saturday as it faces winless Sidwell Friends of the MAC conference.
Next: Saturday at Sidwell Friends, 2:30
