Still Undefeated

Kara Pendery gets us up to speed with the 8th grade Boys Basketball team.

I have learned one very important thing during these cold winter months.  It's impossible to be fired from your volunteer job as a Middle School sports 'reporter' even when you don't submit a report!  I know, it was surprising to me too.  (Editor's Note - True, Kara's not getting fired, but we do have HR looking into some options. We're considering have her also become an investigative journalist and check into the mystery of the invisible HS Bowling team.) So, I am guessing you have all been wondering how the Middle School 8th grade basketball team has been doing this season?  Well, it may come as a surprise to a few, but not to the intelligent readership of this fine blog .... but they remain undefeated!!  The middle school boys' basketball teams have 3 games yet to be played, prior to the CHL tournament.  There is still time for you to come out and watch them play.  If you haven't made it out to see the new gym, you really need to.  Don't leave home without your booster card!

We have a great match-up on Wednesday, February 4th at HOME vs Mariemont. It will be another great game between these 2 teams.  Monday, February 9th they travel to Deer Park.

The game to watch will be Wednesday February 11th!  The Cowboys will host Reading for the final league game this year.  This is always a battle.  We would really like to see a big HOME crowd for their last home games.

Thanks to our un-fireable volunteer, Kara Pendery

Warriors Whipped

On Thursday, 10/16, the middle school football team traveled to Mariemont.  I just want to let the team know how much I appreciate all the amazing tackles, catches and blocks that make taking photos so much fun!  I think we also saw some 'excessive blocking' by Pierson Rogers.....but we will get to that later.  (Note The Blind Side reference.... )  Due to missing press time....I am sticking to just the facts...as interpreted by my reporters.  :)

1st qtr:  Joey Edmonds #5  passed to Moe Mitchell #9 for a touchdown.  Wyoming 6 - Mariemont 0.  Pierson Rogers #22 ran for 39 yards for the TD and the PAT.  Wyoming 14 - Mariemont 0.  Our defense held the Warriors and kept them out of the end-zone.  Elijah McGee #30 had a beautiful 20 yard run.

2nd qtr:  Joey passed to Moe, again, for a 25 yard TD pass.  Pierson ran it in for the PAT.  Wyoming 22 - Mariemont 0.  Shep Marty #50, made a great tackle on a Warrior receiver forcing the ball out of his hands.  Conner Flood #1 assisted on the tackle.  Pierson took the ball 72 yards to another Wyoming touchdown.  Wyoming 28 - Mariemont 0.

Our defense held Mariemont even though the Warriors' drive was helped by 3 big Wyoming penalties.  This is where the 'excessive blocking' came in.  Pierson made a great block that flattened the little Warrior.  Even though a penalty was called, my photo does not support the call.... :)  The crowd went a bit restless for the remainder of the game, making sure to remind the officiating staff about proper blocking technique.  It was about this time that Moe made his amazing one handed catch for a TD!  The crowd went wild. :)  Eli Feazell #84 caught a pass from Joey for the PAT.  Wyoming 36 - Mariemont 0.

3rd qtr:  Mariemont scored on their 1st drive of the 2nd half.  Wyoming 36  -  Mariemont 8.  The next score was a one man show......Noah Fershtman #83 caught a 25 yard pass for the touchdown.  Noah then kicked the PAT.  If only he would have thrown the ball to himself!  Wyoming 43 - Mariemont 8.

4th qtr:  Sean Gildea #19 and Conner Flood #1 made a nice stop to prevent a Mariemont touchdown.  The Cowboy defense then held the Warriors' offense, turning the ball over on downs.

Final score:  Wyoming  43 - Mariemont 8

Bonus offensive highlight:  A beautiful ONE handed catch by Moe Mitchell in the end-zone for a touchdown

Defensive highlights:  Shep Marty's awesome tackle forcing a fumble which lead to Pierson's 72 yrd run for a touchdown

Look for an upcoming report for last night's match-up with Indian Hill.  I know you all are on pins & needles...wondering which team won.  Go ahead...take a guess!

Cowboys Willy-Nilly Over Wildcats

The Kara Krew comes again with the goods for the Middle School Football team and their win over Deer Park on Tuesday, October 7th .

The Middle School football team had another great showing last week.  If you just want the highlights, skip to the end, otherwise, read on! Pierson Rogers #22 rushed for the first touchdown of the game.  Joey Edmonds #5 ran the ball into the end zone for the PAT.  Wyoming was up 8 – 0.  The stingy Cowboy defense then proceeded to allow the Wildcats offense only a brief appearance on the field.  Before I could clean off my lens, Pierson ran a punt return for another touchdown.  Joey threw a short pass to Evan Prater #10 for the extra point.  Wyoming 16 – Deer Park 0.  During the 2nd quarter, the Cowboy Defense stiffened and held Deer Park when they drove inside the Cowboy 10 yard line.  When the Cowboy offense took over, Joey Edmonds had a beautiful 80+ yard touchdown run.  Our extra point failed, but we went into the half leading 22 – 0!

The 3rd and 4th quarters proved to be equally exciting as our first two.  Moe Mitchell #9 had a 43 yard touchdown reception from a beautiful pass by Evan Prater.  Evan passed to Joey for the 2 point conversion.  Wyoming led Deer Park, 30 – 0.  Somehow, Deer Park managed to find the end zone with 2:14 left in the 3rd quarter but failed to get the PAT leaving the score 30 – 6.

On the ensuing drive, Wyoming was looking at 3rd and long, so Pierson Rogers thought it would be a good idea to run for a 59 yard run touchdown.  The Cowboys attempted the kick for the extra point, but it didn’t quite make it.  The score was 36 – 6.  Deer Park answered back with a 64 yard touchdown run, Wyoming 36 – Deer Park 12.

Late in the game, Evan Prater threw a 20 yard strike to Conner Flood #1.  Conner made a great catch and was stopped just short of the goal line.  On the following play, Elijah McGee #30 took the ball the rest of the way for another Cowboy touchdown.  Noah Fershtman #83 took another shot at the uprights and got the final point of the game.
Wyoming  43 - Deer Park  12

For those of you that just want the highlights……here you go:
Pierson Rogers had 2 rushing touchdowns and 1 punt return for a touchdown
Joey Edmonds had 1 rushing touchdown
Moe Mitchell had 1 touchdown reception
Elijah McGee had 1 rushing touchdown
Evan Prater threw for 1 touchdown

Extra points scored by Joey Edmonds(2) and Evan Prater(1)
Kicking PAT by Noah Fershtman

Bonus offensive highlight:  Conner Flood 20 yard pass reception
Defensive highlights:  Multiple tackles for losses by Eli Cupp #45, Sam Pendery #11, Hasan Black #25 and Shep Marty #50

Final score:  Wyoming  43 - Deer Park  12

Cowboys Break the Mustangs

Kara Pendery reported for the Middle School Football team and the Thursday, September 18th game against Madeira.

It was another mauling in Madeira!  Wyoming football dominated Madeira both at the Middle School and High School levels this year.  Special thanks to Coach Kamerer for providing stats for the game.  We also have secret score assistants located throughout the stadium that have helped out, as well.  There has been so much scoring from the Cowboys....that it takes more than one person to keep track!  The Middle School Football team faced Madeira on Thursday 9/18 at home.

Game Highlights
Joey Edmonds threw for 2 touchdowns and rushed for 2 touchdowns.
Pierson Rogers had 1 rushing touchdown.
Moe Mitchell had 1 touchdown reception.
Evan Prater had 1 touchdown reception.

Extra points scored by Joey Edmonds(1), Pierson Rogers(2) and Moe Mitchell(1).

Fumble recovery by Hassan Black.
Interception by Sam Taylor.

Wyoming led 32 - 0 at the half.

Final score: Wyoming 38 to Madeira 0

The Cowboys' next game will be at Reading, Wednesday 10/1 at 4:30 at Reading's Veteran's Memorial football stadium.  Take W. Columbia to Left on Market St to Left on W. Pleasant (name changes to West Street at curve).  Follow to stadium parking lot.

Please come out and support the boys as it is sure to be a great game!

Thanks to Kara and Kara's Crew for the highlights and great pictures.

And Now We Know

We were all in shock and we wondered how it happened.  How did the Boys Basketball team come to lose in the District Championship game?  Now we know.  One lone Crazie didn't get the tweet or text and showed up NOT in his assigned color.  I think we've all learned a valuable lesson about how important it is to spend at least six hours a day on social media.  Before you fire up your thumbs and start logging those hours, check out some shots of our Cowboys at the game.  They are the ones wearing white... all of them.

Thanks again to Rod Apfelbeck for these and all of the great Basketball photos this season.
