Valley Falls rolls past McLouth, 46-14
In their final tune-up before district play begins this Friday, Valley Falls had an all-around solid game but suffered a key injury, and McLouth continued to suffer its own growing pains in a 46-14 Valley Falls victory.
The Dragons churned out more than 350 offensive yards while the host Bulldogs managed only 119 on the game. Those stats were proven out by the fact Valley Falls had no trouble moving the ball while McLouth struggled to gain yardage until making a couple good drives in the second half.
The Dragons took the opening kickoff and drove 72 yards in 13 plays punctuated by a 2-yard touchdown run by junior quarterback Alex Lederer. Lederer connected with senior back Mitchell Streeter on a 2-point conversion play to make it 8-0 Valley Falls with 7:19 to play in the opening quarter.
McLouth gained 4 yards on its first possession as an unsuccessful fake punt gave the Dragons the ball at the McLouth 39. An illegal block penalty backed the Dragons up but senior back Chance Gier broke free for a 44-yard run and then scored on a 1-yard run before adding the 2-point conversion to make it 16-0 Dragons with 4:25 left in the opening quarter.
McLouth went backwards for 3 yards on its next possession and the Dragons started another possession in McLouth territory at the 47. Gier ran for 7 yards on a third-down play and didn’t get up with an apparent leg injury. He wouldn’t return to the game. The drive continued, though, as senior back Tyler Wynkoop scored from 6 yards out on the second play of the second quarter and then added the 2-point conversion to make it 24-0 Dragons.
The Bulldogs scratched out only 2 yards on their next possession and the Dragons drove 44 yards on four plays as sophomore back Taylor Anderson picked up a fumbled pitch and ran it in for an official 4-yard touchdown run to make it 32-0 with Lederer’s 2-point conversion run.
The tough night for the Bulldogs, whose roster includes only four seniors and three juniors, continued as another stalled drive ended with the Dragons blocking a punt and Lederer returning it 20 yards for a score to make it 38-0 with 7:14 left in the first half.
The Dragons didn’t stop there as they recovered an onside kick but, for the first time in the game, were stopped by the McLouth defense at the Bulldogs 33.
This time the Bulldogs began to move the ball as a late hit penalty on a run by Bulldogs freshman quarterback Marc Walbridge gave McLouth first down at the Dragons 34. Walbridge connected with senior back Chris Culter on a 9-yard play on fourth-and-7 and, on the next play, found Culter deep down the right sideline for a 22-yard scoring pass. Walbridge connected with senior E.J. Field for the 2-point conversion to make it 38-8 Dragons with 1:09 left in the half.
The Dragons almost added another score before halftime as Lederer broke free on a run but stumbled at the McLouth 5 as time expired.
The scenario continued for much of the second half as the Bulldogs went backward on their first possession of the second half and Lederer ran for a 31-yard touchdown and then hit senior Riley Bunde for the 2-point conversion to make it 46-8 Dragons.
With the deficit over 35 points in the second half, the running clock then went into play. McLouth would add a fourth-quarter touchdown on a 58-yard Culter run to make the final score 46-14 Dragons.
The Dragons were led by 11 carries for more than 100 yards by Gier in slightly more than a quarter of action, plus 5 carries for 78 yards and two scores by Lederer and 9 carries for 50 yards and a score by Wynkoop.
Culter had the touchdown run plus 3 catches for 43 yards and a score, while Walbridge was 8-for-11 passing for 92 yards and a score.
The Dragons improved to 3-3 and will take on Lyndon in the first game of district play Friday. The Bulldogs fell to 1-5 and will take on the JCN Chargers in a road game Friday for game one of district play.
