Carson Pop Warner roundup

The Carson Senators secured their first win of the season against the Reno

Broncos, 13-6, on Friday night at Governors Field.

The Senators struck quickly with Jack Jacquet's 63-yard touchdown run on their first possession. They also survived a mishap on the PAT snap and picked up the extra point when Jacquet picked up the loose ball and completed a pass to Travis Treatham.

Jacquet scored again on a run in the second quarter and the Senators went on to end their three-game losing streak.

The Broncos scored on a long pass play in the second quarter, but the Senators adjusted their defensive scheme. Jeremiah Schenzel produced a key quarterback sack to thwart a Broncos' threat shortly before halftime. Carson also had an interception in the third quarter and another interception to end the game.

The Senators rushed for 225 yards and two TDs. Jack Jacquet, replacing the injured Kevin Holmes, rushed for 177 yards on 14 carries and scored both of Carson's touchdowns. The running game was rounded out by Shawn Staggs with 33 yards on 10 carries, with the remainder from Jonas Schnezel, Tyler Jackson, Daniel Schierholt and quarterback Nick Bacon.

Credit for the Senators' successful running game goes to the starting offensive linemen: William Adler, Marc Gonzalez, Brandon Mackie, Eddie Martinez and Jamie Greene.

Bacon directed Carson's offense and completed four of five passes for 29 yards. The Senators used the halfback pass play successfully as Jacquet threw four times for 15 yards.

Trethan led the receivers with three catches for 31 yards while Jacquet caught two balls for 13 yards.

The Senators were led defensively by Jeremiah Schenzel who had four tackles, one interception and the second-period quarterback sack. Schenzel was assisted up front by Robert Frederick, Donovan Dean, Mitchell Grover, Jeremy Gray and William Donnelly, who came alive late with two quarterback sacks. Bryon Wilson stepped up in the defensive backfield with a game ending interception. Ahron Osheroff contributed three tackles and Alvin Smith had two.

Senators (Silver) 14, Steelers 6

After a slow start, the Carson Silver Senators (2-0-1) roared back to defeat the Sparks Steelers on Friday night at Governor's Field.

The Senators' offense began to pick up steam in the second quarter after quarterback Patrick Riggs completed two passes to Mark Gwaltney for a total 41 of yards, and a pass to Mike Gonzales for 21 yards. With less than one minute remaining before halftime, Riggs completed a 16-yard pass to Mike Gonzales for a touchdown. Ryan Cruse caught a pass for the extra point and the Senators took a 7-0 lead.

After the kickoff, the Steelers quickly marched the ball downfield and threatening to score with seconds left in the half before Carson linebacker Stephen Sawyers intercepted a pass to end the drive.

The Senators' defense was in charge throughout the second half, aided by contributions from Joey Gonzales, Robert Barlow, and John Donnelly. Nick Brown also recovered a fumbled pitchout by the Steelers in the fourth quarter.

On Carson's next offensive series, quarterback Patrick Riggs found Mark

Gwaltney a 20-yard touchdown pass. Ryan Cruse caught a short pass and muscled his way into the end zone to convert the extra point and give the Senators a 14-0 lead.

On the next series, the Steelers drove the downfield for their only touchdown. Nick Brown made a big tackle for the Senators on the extra point attempt, stopping the Steelers just short of the goal line.

With time running out, the Steelers successfully attempted an onside kick, but the Steelers' threat died when Stephen Sawyers made his second interception of the night.

The Senators' offense was unable to move the ball, and turned the ball over on downs. The Steelers began marching with less than 30 seconds to play in the game, but Sawyers intercepted a Steelers pass and returned the ball down the sideline 65 yards for a touchdown. Jack Flansburg caught a Riggs pass for the extra point.
