Jamestown’s Langworthy HonoredJamestown’s Tom Langworthy was named Coach of

the Week by the Buffalo Bills and the National Guardafter his Red Raiders won the Class AA championshipwith a 34-14 win over Orchard Park last weekend.

The Raiders led 21-0 after one quarter.“I didn't feel comfortable until we were winning 34-7

in the fourth quarter,” Langworthy said. “As a coach,you are always thinking of everything that can happen.I never count my chickens before they are hatched.”

Jamestown led 28-0 at the half, on the strength of 2interceptions that were returned for a TD.

Joe Ramos intercepted a pass and returned it 45yards for a TD togive Jamestownan early 14-0lead. Late in thequarter, with theQuakers backedup to their own 1-yard line, KyleLiuzzo rushed theQB, batted theball into the airand caught it inthe end zone foranother defensiveTD an te 28-0lead they tookinto the half.

“I challengedour players athalftime to play agreat secondhalf,” Langworthysaid, “and I thinkwe played prettywell.”

Orchard Park scored in the 3rd quarter to pull within28-7 but Jamestown answered early in the 4th quarter.

The Raiders stopped a 4th-down play at OP’s 24-yard line and took possession. On their first play fromscrimmage Devan Jackson broke over the right sidefor a 24-yard TD and a 34-7 lead.

Jamestown won the Section 6 title last season, butlost to Aquinas in the Far West Regional game.

“We have goals to go farther than we did last year,”Langworthy said. “We plan on competing hard andbeing successful this Saturday.”

The Raiders will play in the Far West Regionalgame at 8 pm Saturday at All High Stadium in Buffaloagainst Section 5 champion Victor.

“We feel good and confidant,” Langworthy said. “We

have a great defense, we play solid on special teamsand we are putting up points. We have to have a greatweek of practice and go out and play hard this week-end.”

Langworthy played high school football from 1995through 1998 at nearby Southwestern High School. Hewas named a Class D All-State LB in his senior year.

Langworthy played college football at MercyhurstCollege (now University) in Erie, Pa. After graduating,he took a volunteer coaching role at Southwesternunder Jay Sirianni. He left after two seasons becausehe landed a job teaching in the Jamestown District.

Ironically,Sirianni has 4players on thisseason’sSouthwesternteam who grewup in theJamestownDistrict beforemoving toSouthwestern.

“We laughabout it,”Langworthy said.“Jay's doing prettywell with our kids.I’ve known Jaymy whole life.”

While teachingat Jamestown,Langworthyworked as anassistant JVcoach for 2 sea-sons. He applied

for the varsity head job when it came open before the2008 season.

“The opportunity came open and I thought I coulddo the job,” he said. “I had the enthusiasm and therelationship with the other coaches and the currentplayers. I thought I was ready for it.”

Langworthy’s staff has been with him throughoutthe years of re-building Jamestown into a recognizedprogram across New York State. Ryan Calkins(Defensive Coordinator), Richie Joly (DBs and QBs)and Dave Munella (RBs) round out the staff.

“They do an incredible job,” Langworthy said. “Theyare just as much a part of this as I am.”

Langworthy and his wife Amy have two sons, Noah(age 2) and Grant (6 months).

Canisius overcame a week of turmoil in the football program

and the school and destroyed St. Francis 62-19 in the Msgr.

Martin Association semifinals last night.

“Our kids started slow,” coach Rich Robbins said. “With

everything that has gone on this week, I expected it.”

Canisius was tied with St. Francis 13-13 with about 6 min-

utes left in the second quarter when the Crusaders exploded.

“We want to start fast

every week,” Robbins said.

“The distractions this week

were incredible. We did not

have a very good practice

on Monday, that’s for sure.”

The Crusaders scored 4

TDs before the halftime

break and added two more

early in the 3rd quarter to

take a 55-13 lead.

The only thing left

unknown were the facts

surrounding the firestorm

that has swirled at the

school this week.

It started on Monday

when Canisius announced

that star LB Brad Zaffram

would not play again this

season due to a violation of

school rules. The situation

quickly escalated when

Beck O’Connor, the

school’s Dean of Students

and the JV football coach

was fired from both posi-

tions and escorted from the

building.

“He was the JV coach

for 8 years,” Robbins said.

“All of our kids had him and

they were close to him.”

The firing of O’Connor

unleashed a flurry of spec-

ulation and rumor that

made its way around social media. Rumors that this was a major

scandal involving the football program started quickly. More

rumors that Robbins had been fired followed in a wave.

All of a sudden, instead of basking in the glow of being

ranked 37th in the nation, the Crusaders were in a crisis.

“We had a team meeting on Monday,” Robbins said. “The

kids wanted to handle this with class and pride. We wanted to

come out and represent our school and our program with pride.”

On Wednesday, news broke that O’Connor was seeking a

lawyer. Then the Canisius students staged a protest in front of

the school.

“We really can’t get into any of that,” Robbins said. “I’ve

been told not to answer any questions about Beck O’Connor. We

can’t control anything about that anyway. All we can do is play

football. That’s the only thing we have control over.”

Wednesday afternoon, rumors started that the Canisius princi-

pal had resigned. Canisius athletic director, Jim Mauro, said at

Thursday game that it was not true.

“I was at the school until 6:30 and he was still the principal,”

Mauro said. “When I left for the game, nothing had changed as

far as that goes.”

Mauro did not want to

speak on the turmoil but

did say that he was proud

of the team.

“It was a very chal-

lenging week,” Mauro

said. “I’m proud of how

the kids came out and

played. Brad was a brother

to them. This is a tight

group and they are hurt-

ing. They came out and

played hard.”

One Canisius source

who is close to the situa-

tion says that the entire

situation has spun out of

control.

“This entire situation

was handled poorly,” the

source, who asked not to

be identified, said at half-

time of the win over St.

Francis. “Beck handled

this the way he was origi-

nally told to handle it on

Friday. On Monday, he

was fired.”

At issue, is an incident

when Zaffram was a stu-

dent at Sweet Home.

When Zaffram transferred

to Canisius after his sopho-

more year, it was decided

that the incident would not

be carried over to his time

as a Canisius student. Apparently, Canisius principal, Father

Joseph Constantino disagreed.

Now, online petitions seeking to remove Constantino as

school principal have started, alumni are decrying the poor pub-

licity and trustees are meeting to find a way to settle the matter.

Incredibly, the national media has started to pick up on the story.

And, in the midst of the firestorm, Canisius had a playoff

game looming.

Solomon Renfro stepped in at MLB and FB for Zaffram and

played very well.

“He had big shoes to fill tonight,” Robbins said. “He’s a team

captain and he had to step in a lead us. He ran hard, he played

well on defense. He did great.”

Canisius Overcomes Controversy

Canisius senior Solomon Renfro stepped in to start at FB anLB for Canisius in last night’s playoff win.

AA At A Glance

Jamestown beat Orchard Park 34-14

to win their 2nd straight Class AA title.

The Raiders jumped out to a 21-0 lead in

the 1st quarter.

“We always preach to start fast and

that's what we

did,” coach Tom

Langworthy said.

“We scored a TD

on our second

drive and then got

the turnover.”

Nicc Holland

hit Zack

Panebianco with a

46-yard scoring

strike halfway

through the first

quarter to give

Jamestown a 6-0

lead.

On Orchard

Park’s next posses-

sion, Joe Ramos

intercepted a pass

and returned it 45

yards for a TD

and a 12-0 lead.

Devan Jackson ran in a 2-point PAT for a

14-0 lead.

“He’s been starting at CB all year,”

Langworthy said. “and he’s been coming

up big all season long. He’s a good cover

guy and a good tackler.”

Ramos also returned an interception

for a TD in the Raiders first-round play-

off win over Lockport.

“He's really stepped up since the

playoffs started,” Langworthy said.

The defense

helped put the

game away early.

After Ramos

returned his INT,

the defense forced

a 3-and-out by

Orchard Park.

Jamestown took

possession on their

own 25 and took

just 4 plays to

score again.

Jackson capped the

drive as he ran 23

yards for the score.

“With our

defense playing the

way it is,”

Langworthy said,

“being up 21 at the

end of the first

quarter is a great

thing.”

With 6 minutes left in the half, the

Raiders’ defense struck again.

Join us in 2011 for our

Linemen campsJoin us in 2014 for our

ball at the OP 2-yard line. A first-down

run lost a yard.

On second-and-11 from the 1-yard

line, Kyle Liuzzo rushed the QB, batted

the pass into the air and caught the ball

while standing in

the end zone.

“He’s a great

pass rusher,”

Langworthy said.

“He was a tremen-

dous player on the

JV team but then

he didn’t play as a

junior. He took a

year off from foot-

ball.”

Liuzzo returned

to the squad as a

senior. He retuned

a fumble 87 yards

for a TD in

Jamestown’s loss

to Canisius earlier

this year.

“He’s a

wrestler,”

Langworthy said.

“He’s tough and knows how to use

leverage. Sometimes we drop him into

coverage.”

Jamestown has now played at the The

Ralph four straight seasons. After losing

twice to Orchard Park, the Raiders have

now won two straight titles.

“When you're kids are there for the

first time, it can be tough," Langworthy

said. "The first time you are there, no

matter what you say in the week going

into the game, it's a totally different

experience when

you get there."

The Raiders

experience played

a role and the

team's expectations

are high this year.

"Some of our

guys have been to

the Ralph 3 years

in a row,"

Langworthy said.

“That's a pretty

awesome level of

experience. This

year, we didn't go

out of the tunnel

and stare at any-

thing. It’s a football

game. We’ll play

the game and it

doesn’t matter

where it’s played.”

Jamestown will now play in the Far

West Regionals at 6 pm Saturday at All-

High Stadium in Buffalo.

The Raiders will face Section 5

(Rochester) champion Victor. Jamestown

is ranked 3rd in NYS in Class A while

Victor (9-1) is ranked 9th.

Sweet Home scored twice in the

final five minutes to beat South Park

27-18 and win the Class A title game.

The Panthers trailed 18-14 and faced

a 4th-and-goal from South Park’s 15-

yard line with just

under five minutes

to play. Sweet

Home coach John

Faller called time

out.

“We were try-

ing to decide what

to do,” Faller said.

“We didn't talk

confidence or any-

thing like that. We

were just talking

about where to put

people.”

Sweet Home

had already

missed one golden

opportunity to

take the lead. Late

in the 3rd quarter,

the Panthers

drove to the South

Park 3-yard line. After two plays lost

yardage, South Park’s Mike McDonald

intercepted a pass over the middle and

returned it 36 yards.

“We had 1st-and-goal on the 3 and

couldn't get in,” Faller said. “The kid

jumped the pattern and returned it 35

yards. It was a big play at the time.”

After getting a second chance to take

the lead, the Panthers were facing the

possibility of losing the championship

game for the sec-

ond straight year.

“That was it,

we had to score,”

Faller said. “That

was our chance

right there. We had

to make a play and

we did.”

Senior QB

Kevin Torrillo

spotted Brandon

Smiley in the left

corner of the end

zone and lofted a

pass. Smiley

caught it one step

ahead of the

Sparks defender

and Sweet Home

led 20-18.

“Brandon was

covered and got

good position,” Faller said. “There’s a

reason he’s going to play at UB next

year. He’s one of our leaders but other

kids stepped up too.”

On the ensuing kickoff, Sweet Home

senior Nyamekyi Daniels lunged at the

return man and punched the ball loose.

Sweet Home’s Josh Parsons recovered

the ball on the South Park 35-yard line.

Two minutes

later, Jordan Evert

ran 23 yards down

the sideline for a

game-clinching TD.

“Our two

biggest players

made two big

plays,” Faller said

of Smiley and

Evert. “That’s

really what it

takes to win at

this level.”

However,

Daniels, who has

received scant

media attention

this season, made

the biggest play of

the season.

“That’s what

we tell the kids,”

Faller said. “You never know who’s going

to come up with the play. Someone has a

chance to step up and he did.”

Daniels starts at DE and also plays

on kickoff coverage.

“He played a little bit last year,”

Faller said, “but he earned a starting

role this summer. He started the first

game against Jamestown and by the

third week he was starting all the time.

Nyamekyi had one of our better games.”

Daniels has been a solid player in

the Sweet Home

program.

“He’s been with

us since he was in

the modified pro-

gram,” Faller said.

“He improved. He

was always on the

edge of starting

and was never a

star. This year he

got his chance.”

Daniels fin-

ished the game

with 3 tackles, 1

for lost yardage,

and the caused

fumble.

“He’s a smart

kid with real good

grades,” Faller

said. “He plays

hard and wants to

be on the team.”

Sweet Home will now play in the

Far West Regional game at 8pm Friday

at All-High Stadium in Buffalo against

Section 5 champion Irondequoit. Sweet

Home (9-1) is ranked 3rd in NYS while

Irondequoit (7-3) is ranked 11th.

Cheektowaga won the Class B

Championship game 40-34 over Bennett

when QB Zak Cieszki hit Stephon Parker

with 40-yard TD pass with :05 left.

“Stephon made a great catch and

stayed in bounds

long enough to get

the ball over the

pylon,” coach Mike

Fatta said. “That

was incredible.”

The TD play

capped a stunning

comeback for the

Warriors. It was the

biggest comeback

in Section 6 history

at the Ralph as

Cheektowaga

scored 33 points in

the final quarter.

Cheektowaga

trailed just 14-7 at

the half and Fatta

was hoping his

team could

regroup.

“I told the kids

at halftime that it

was a long game,” Fatta said. “I was wor-

ried about Bennett going up 21-7 on us.”

Instead, Bennett scored twice in the

third quarter and actually led 28-7 enter-

ing the 4th quarter.

“I just told the kids to keep believing,”

Fatta said. “We talk about these things all

the time. This was the time to do it.”

On the first play of the fourth quarter,

Ciezki started the comeback by running 9

yards for a TD.

“He’s tough as nails and runs hard,”

Fatta said. “He’s a

200-pound kid who

can run you over.”

The Warriors

still trailed 28-14.

“I said if we get

a stop we could get

right back in this,”

Fatta said. “We got

the stop on defense

and scored again.”

With 8:12 left in

the game, Ciezki hit

Tyron Lawson with

a 65-yard TD pass

to pull the Warriors

within 28-21.

“Zak keeps it

cool,” Fatta said.

“He's a competitor

and he holds it all

together.”

On the ensuing

kickoff, the

Warriors recovered a Bennett fumble and

took possession on the 6-yard line. Two

plays later, Ciezki ran in from 5 yards out

to pull within 28-21.

“It started to snowball there,” Fatta

said. “We got another turnover and got

Incredibly, Cheektowaga took over on

Bennett’s 20-yard line and four plays

later, Ciezki punched in from a yard out

and the Warriors 34-28 lead.

Bennett then fumbled the kickoff

again, but this time

kept possession.

Wit the Tigers

starting on their

own 10-yard line

and with just 1:16

left, it looked like

Cheektowaga had

pulled off an

incredible rally.

Instead, Bennett

QB Anthony

Mendrysa tossed a

90-yard scoring

bomb to Brandon

Brown to tie the

game at 34-34.

“Our bench

went totally silent,”

Fatta said.

Overtime

loomed in the

minds of everyone.

The Warriors took over on their own 39 an

2 pays ater Marshawn Gibson ran 18 yards

up the middle.

“We sprung a trap play,” Fatta said.

“That put us in position to take a shot. We

were thinking about trying a field goal.”

Instead, Ciezki hit Parker with the

game-winning TD with just :05 left. In

all, Ciezki ended the day with 3 TDs

rushing and 2 passing. He completed 9 of

23 passes for 224 yards.

“He did that against a team that was

sending the house at the kid,” Fatta said.

Another player

that has played a

crucial role this sea-

son is MLB

Drequon Trotter.

“He is the vocal

leader of our

defense,” Fatta said.

“He is the guy in

practice that chal-

lenges us. He’s the

guy everyone

respects. He’s a

focused kid.”

Trotter (5-9,

190) finished with 8

tackles, 5 solo.

“He puts himself

in position to make

plays,” Fatta said.

“He’s strong and

can get off blocks.

He does everything

you need a middle linebacker to do.”

Cheektowaga will now play in the Far

West regional at 3 pm Saturday at All-High

Stadium against Section 5 champion

Batavia. Cheektowaga (8-2) is ranked 10th

in NYS while Batavia (9-1) is ranked 6th.

MGCLake led 6-0 after one quarter

and 20-0 at the half as they overpow-

ered Southwestern 37-7 to win the

Class C championship game at Ralph

Wilson Stadium last weekend.

The Thunder

Dragons rushed

for 315 yards in

the contest while

holding

Southwestern to

just 70 yards on

the ground.

“We were able

to run the ball,”

MGCLake coach

Curt Fischer said

after the game.

“Our running game

has done pretty

well all year.”

MGCLake

senior Ryan Miller

led the charge as

he carried 23

times for 231

yards and 4 TDs.

“We could get

Ryan three or four hundred yards a

game,” Fischer said. “In some of our

games, he is getting 9 carries. His

yards-per-carry average is amazing.”

The Thunder Dragons drove 80

yards in just four plays for the game’s

first score. AJ Hulton capped the drive

when he hit Jed Micek with a 48-yard

scoring pass to give MGCLake a 6-0

lead.

The teams battled evenly for the next

few possessions

but MGCLake

struck in a big way

with 6 minutes left

in the half.

Southwestern

downed a punt on

the 10-yard line and

it took just one play

for the Dragons to

cover 90 yards.

Miller took a

handoff and went

up the middle

before veering out-

side. He covered

all 90 yards in

about 10 seconds

to give MGCLake

a 12-0 lead. Miller

then punched in

the 2-point PAT.

“He's special,”

Fischer said. “He is a very patient runner.

It’s like he floats in the air, and then

plants his foot and changes direction. It's

amazing to watch.”

Miller also runs with power.

“Ryan can also run over a guy,”

Fischer said. “He will lower his shoul-

der to get a couple of extra yards.”

The Thunder Dragons increased the

lead to 20-0 before the break when they

drove 53 yards on

7 plays in just

2:47 of playing

time. Miller ran

the final 9 yards

of the drive for his

second TD.

In the third

quarter, the

MGCLake

defense flexed its

muscles when

Hulton sacked the

Southwestern QB

in the end zone

for a safety and a

22-0 lead.

“Our defense

has given us an

opportunity to go

for it on 4th-and-

short when we

should be punting,” Fischer said. “The

confidence we have in our defense

allows us to take chances that we

wouldn’t normally take. They just shut

other teams down.”

Miller would score two more TDs to

give the Thunder Dragons a 37-0 lead

before Southwestern ruined the shut out

with a TD late in the game.

Miller (5-11, 192) is being looked at

by several college teams.

“Quite a few D-3 schools want him,”

Fischer said,

“We’ve heard from

Alfred, Buff State

and Hobart. They

would all be great

options for him. I

feel there are a

couple of D-2

schools that he

could play at. We

have been in touch

with Edinboro,

Gannon and

Mercyhurst but he

is keeping all of

his options open.”

Hulton added

37 yards rushing

to the offense. He

also completed 2

of 4 passes for 79

yards and a TD.

Jonah Tanner ran 4 times for 28 yards.

The Thunder Dragons will now play

Section 5 champion LeRoy at 12 pm

Saturday at All-High Stadium in

Buffalo. LeRoy (10-0) is ranked 2nd in

NYS while MGCLake (10-0) is ranked

3rd.

Randolph won the Class D title with a

28-0 win over Ellicottville-Franklinville.

“Our defense played well,” Randolph

coach Brent Brown said. “We wanted to

stop their running game.”

Ellicottville TB

Phalla Musall had

entered the game

with 1,249 yards

rushing but was

held to 55 yards in

the Ralph.

“He’s been tear-

ing everybody up,”

Brown said. “You

have top stop him

from getting around

the corner. Our kids

did a super job.”

Randolph

opened the game

by forcing a punt

and taking over on

their own 30-yard

line. The Cardinals

proceeded to drive

70 yards on 14 plays

over 7 minutes to

score a TD. QB

Bryce Morrison capped the drive when he

ran in from 4 yards out.

“That was big,” Brown said. “That took

up a huge chunk of the first quarter.”

Randolph defensive linemen Jeff

Andrews and Michael Bowers were

unmovable all night.

“Those two big guys stopped any run

up the middle,” Brown said. “Those kids

kept coming hard.”

After forcing another punt, Randolph

took over on their own 29. This time, the

Cardinals used only

2:09 to travel the 71

yards for another

TD. Morrison

scrambled and

tossed a 14-yard TD

pass to Derek Young

for a 13-0 lead.

Morrison finished

the night with 5 of 9

passing for 192

yards and a 2 TDs.

“He's been a

starter for 3 years,”

Brown said. “He

started as a 10th

grader at OLB.”

Morrison was

moved to TE as the

Cardinals won the

NYS Championship

in 2013. This year,

he was move to QB.

“He's had a pret-

ty big year for us,” Brown said.

In the 4th quarter, with Randolph hold-

ing a 21-0 lead, Ellicottville punted and

downed the ball at the 1-yard line.

with a 99-yard scoring strike and a 28-0

lead. The play only tied for the longest

play ever at the Ralph - which was set in

2012 when Pat Slater was the head coach.

“We wanted to see if we could break

Pat’s record,”

Brown said with a

laugh. “We only

tied it.”

Morrison also

played SS for the

Randolph defense

in the win. It was

the first time this

season Morrison

has played defense.

“We had a cou-

ple of kids injured,”

Brown said, “so we

put Bryce back to

play safety. We had

to change a couple

things around but

it's not new for him.

He played defense

all last year.”

Devyn Nelsen

rushed 22 times for

111 yards in the

win.

“Devyn’s quick and has speed,” Brown

said. “I wish he was a little bigger but he’s

tough. He’s been a running back all the

way up through our program.”

The defense will continue to play a big

role if Randolph is going to win a 3rd

straight NYS title. The Cardinals will need

a big contribution from Junior CB Tyler

Stahley.

“He has pretty good speed,” Brown

said. “He’s tall and has good hands. He’s a

good cover guy.”

Stahley (6-2,

170) finished the

season with 8 INTs.

“He’s a smart

and disciplined kid,”

Brown said. “He'll

read what he’s sup-

posed to read and

does not get out of

position. He’s very

athletic and the ball

seems to find him.”

Stahley, who

also plays basketball

at Randolph, has an

academic average in

the mid-90s.

“He works

hard,” Brown said.

“He certainly knows

what our scheme is

and what his job is

every week. He

does a good job out

there.”

Randolph will play Section 5 champion

Red Jacket at 5 pm Friday at All-High

Stadium in Buffalo. Randolph (9-1) is

ranked #1 in NYS while Red Jacket (10-0)

is ranked 2nd.

Bishop Timon beat St. Joe's 26-21 last

night to advance to the Msgr. Martin

Championship game against Canisius.

The Tigers trailed 21-12 at the half but

scored twice in the second half to pull

out the win.

"It's a good

win," coach

Charlie Comerford

said. "The kids

showed a lot of

heart in the second

half."

In a wild first

half that saw the

teams turn the ball

over a combined

seven times, St.

Joe's scored 3

times to take a 21-

6 lead in the sec-

ond quarter.

Myles Young

opened the scoring

when he broke

away for a 70-yard

TD run. Darren

Thompson fol-

lowed with a 57-

TD run. QB David Archer tossed a 63-

yard TD pass to Young to give the

marauders a 21-6 lead.

Timon battled back, however, as

Arenzo Thomas scored on a 4-yard run to

pull the Tigers within 21-12. Thomas

rushed for 101 yards and set a new sin-

gle-season rushing record. He has rushed

for 1,574 yards this season.

In the second half, Timon could not

cash in on several scoring opportunities.

They had 5 drives start inside the 26-yard

line of St. Joe's and

failed to score on

every drive. Three

times the Tigers

drove inside the 10-

yard line and came

up empty.

Finally, on the

last play of the

third quarter, QB

Brandon May ran

15 yards for a TD

to pull Timon with-

in 21-20.

Late in the

game, St. Joe's was

trying to grind out

the clock when

Tyler Ringwood

recovered a fumble

to give Timon one

last chance with a

possession on the

St. Joe's 35.

May ran in for the game-winning TD

from 5 yards out with just 1:06 left in the

game. He finished with 207 yards pass-

ing, 84 yards rushing and 2 TDs.

Timon will now play Canisius at 6:00

pm Thursday at Ralph Wilson Stadium

for the Msgr. Martin Association title.

CTF’s vision is to develop the hearts of coaches andathletes to be men of character for others.

Week 8 - The most Powerful character trait in the worldLove. It is the essential quality that bonds teams and allowsthe athletes to play in freedom not fear.

Why is it so powerful, simple it is the desire of every ath-lete and person. We all want unconditional love.

On the football field it looks like being willing to play aposition that is not your specialty; doing the dirty job that getsno press, or it is the scout team giving your best in practice.

Love perseveres when times are tough and does not thinkevil or negative of others. It is patient and kind; it protects,trusts, hopes and speaks truth. Simple love is sacrificingoneself for the benefit of the team. Love always plays for oth-ers and understands the name on the front of the jersey

comes first, not the name on the back.

When your teammate makes a mistake, love covers thatteammate and pulls his teammate out of the hole.

You substitute forgiveness for bitterness, faith for fear,humility for pride, patience for frustration, hope for despairand you are a giver not a taker. Tell your parent’s you lovethem today and make their day.

This week - suit up - strap it on and play for somethingbigger than yourself, because there is no greater love thanthis that you lay down your life for your friend or teammate.BE RELENTLESS!

Love Never Fails!

Green MachineBy Mark Adair

Jamestown stayed atRalph Wilson Stadiumlate into the night - andinto the early morning - towin the Section 6 ClassAA championship lastweek. In a game that did-n’t start until 10pm,Jamestown roared out toan early 21-0 lead andthen pounded out a 34-14win over Orchard Park.

“We didn't realize howlate it was,” Jamestowncoach Tom Langworthysaid. “Our players wereso ready to play and ourcoaches were so readyto coach that none of useven noticed what time itwas. When we lined upfor the Awards ceremonyafter the game, I lookedat my watch and it said12:57. We didn't gethome until 3 am.”

The wait was worth it. The Red Raiders,

wearing their alternategreen jerseys, scored 3TDs in the first quarter.

“We always preach tostart fast and that’s whatwe did,” Langworthy said.“With our defense playingthe way it is, being up 21at the end of the first quarter is a great thing.”

On the Raiders second drive of the game, quarterbackNicc Holland hit Zack Panebianco with a 46-yard TD passto open the scoring. On the Quakers next possession,Jamestown's Joe Ramos returned an interception 45yards for a TD and a 14-0 lead.

“We forced a three-and-out right after that,”Langworthy said. “That was a big stop for our defense.”

Jamestown took the OP punt at their own 25 and fourplays later, Devan Jackson ran 23 yards for a TD and a21-point advantage.

The rest of the game was a showcase for the defense.“We have a great defense,” Langworthy said. “I know

our offense has gotten a lot of attention over the past

year but we are prettyproud of our defense.We play solid on specialteams and we areputting up points but ourdefense has been out-standing.”

The defense scored apair of TDs in the titlegame. In addition toRamos’ “Pick-Six”, KyleLiuzzo also scored adefensive TD.

With OP backed up totheir own 1-yard line,Liuzzo rushed the QB inthe end zone, batted thepass into the air, andcaught the ball whilestanding in the endzone. The play gave theRaiders a 28-0 leadshortly before the half.

The Raiders used therest of the evening topound out a workman-like performance. Theyrushed for 205 yardsand held Orchard Parkto 73 rushing yards.

Even the green jer-seys stood out for theRed Raiders.

“Our booster clubbought alternate colorsfor us this year,”

Langworthy said.”We’ve talked about doing it for yearsand we finally ordered them this year.”

The Raiders first wore the jerseys in a home gameagainst Canisius.

“We warmed up in our red jerseys that night,"Langworthy said, “and then went in and changed to thegreen ones. When we came out to start the game, thecrowd went nuts. They look pretty sharp.”

The players actually had to keep the jerseys a secretfor almost five months.

Jamestown lineman Joe Mistretta says that the playersdiscovered the jerseys in a coaches office in April.

“We all thought they looked awesome,” Mistretta said.

Jamestown senior lineman Joe Mistretta has been a 2-way starterfor 3 years. Mistretta is among the top linemen in WNY and main-tains an academic average in the mid-90s.

“We wanted to talk about them but we couldn’t. We knew itwould be exciting to come out for a game wearing them.”

Langworthy is not sure if the green jerseys will makeanother appearance this season.

“We wore them against Canisius and at the Stadium,”he said. “The kids wanted to wear them on the big stage. Iguess we'll let the captains make the decision.”

Mistretta, a team captain, is also a workout director ofsorts. He designed the Raiders weight-room regimen thatthey used this past summer.

“Joe lifts weights every day during the off season,”Langworthy said. “He researched a lot over the years. Heactually had a part in helping to design our summer pro-gram because a lot of players wanted to do Joe’s workout.He put together a system and we used his workout andour kids are stronger because of it.”

The Red Raiders were certainly strong this season. Lastweekend, they were transformed into a Green Machinewith the methodical way they beat Orchard Park. Simplyput, every part of the Raiders was in working order.

“We played well in all phases,” Langworthy said. One player who epitomized the term “machine” was

Mistretta, who has led the Raiders line all season.“He’s extremely strong,” Langworthy said. “He benches

350 pounds and squats close to 500 pounds.”Mistretta (6-2, 265) is one of the top linemen in WNY.“He’s very athletic and very quick,” Langworthy said.

“The combination of speed, strength and size makes him agreat lineman.”

Mistretta is certainly in the discussion when it comes tofinalists for the Trench Trophy, which will be awarded toWNYs top linemen in a few weeks.

“From the time he was a freshman he wanted to win theTrench Trophy,” Langworthy said. “He’s certainly goodenough. He’s also very smart, coachable and he’s a tech-nician. He went to linemen camps throughout the summerto try and get even better."

Mistretta confirms his long-term thoughts about theTrench Trophy.

“When I was younger I watched Cortland Haines andJohn Czech play for Jamestown,” he said. “I looked up themand said that I wanted to go out there and do as well asthey did. I started working out and lifting in the 6th grade.”

Mistretta is now a 3-year starter on both the offensiveand defensive lines. He says that this championship wasdifferent than the title that Jamestown won in 2013.

“We knew that we had a good team coming back,” hesaid. “We expected to be here. We went into this gameknowing that if we played our best football we should win.”

The Raiders lost in the Far West Regionals last yearand this year want to go further than they did.

“Our team is hungry this week," Mistretta said. "We areready to get back at it. We are far from our goal which is towin at the Dome. We need to come out, practice hard andbe ready to win this week.”

Jamestown will play Section 5 champion Victor at 7 pmSaturday at All High Stadium in Buffalo.

It’s not the critic who counts.

Not the man who points out wherethe strong man stumbled or wherethe doer of deeds could have donethem better.

The credit belongs to the man marred by the dust and the sweat and the blood;

who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again and again...

...who at best knows,in the end, the triumphof high achievements and who, at the worst, if he fails at least fails while daring greatly,

so that his place will never be with those cold timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.

- Theodore Roosevelt
