High School Football:
The Braves Get Running Game to Work

Saturday, September 17, 2005

By Jerome Michaels
SJSports Special Correspondent

There's always that debate amongst fans about which part of a football team really decides the outcome of a game. Sure the quarterback gets most of the credit handing the ball to the runningbacks or passing it to a receiver. Then there's the discussion about the defense and their ability to stop the opposing offense. So when Williamstown traveled to Gloucester to take on the Rams from Gloucester Catholic, it was those guys in the trenches that really made the difference in this game. The offensive line for the Braves allowed Tyrone Pouncy and Mark Masterson to rush for two touchdowns against Gloucester Catholic. The defense allowed only one first half touchdown and Williamstown picked up the victory by a 26-8 margin for an opening day win.

By Vincent Lewis
SJSports Staff Writer

Saturday's match-up between Salem and Overbrook turned out to be exactly what each team's nickname represented. For three quarters, both teams were striking against each other with a heavy and forceful impact. Driving and forcing passage in order to plow through to get into a designated place. There are various definitions for the word Ram and Salem and Overbrook were demonstrated that word for the entire game. This Tri-Country Conference game was deadlocked at fourteen apiece at the start of the fourth quarter. Brandon Robbins would score his second touchdown of the day to break that tie and eventually lead the Salem Rams to a 29-14 victory over the Overbrook Rams.

Looking for that change of scenery and the comforts of home, the Mustangs would take on the Rams from Overbrook in a non-league game. One goal was more than enough as four different players scored goals for Triton to shutout Overbrook. Keeper Jessica DeChristopher would not allow a goal in this game.
