The touchdowns kept coming -- a combined 12 of them, in occurrence -- and the scoreboard kept lighting up as big join after big give was made. Soon enough, the time-honoured analogy of referring to after night's WPIAL Class AA quarterfinal adventurous enough between Beaver and Jeannette as a "track meet" became en vogue. And that was the hindmost matter the Bobcats wanted. "We don't have many batons in our bag," Beaver teacher Jeff Beltz quipped. Jordan Hall scored three touchdowns, Moziah Harris scored twice and Cameron Baradziej threw two touchdown passes and ran for another as Jeannette sprinted gone Beaver, 57-28, at Fox Chapel's James M. Burk Stadium.
"We did not want any sport to swivel into a stalk meet," Beltz said. "We kindliness we plan planned well and we regard we came out of the passage well, but after that, if the sprint would have stopped at the 15-yard line, we would have dialect mayhap stood a chance." But this descent didn't sojourn there. It kept growing until the No. 4 ovum Jayhawks (10-1) whizzed into the semifinals, where they will action top-seeded Beaver Falls (11-0) Friday at a locality to be determined.
That ready will be a rematch of in the end season's WPIAL championship event at Heinz Field, won by Jeannette, 61-12. "We both want to get to Heinz Field. They're reputation in our way, and we're prominence in theirs," Jayhawks instruct Ray Reitz said.
"Word is that they want to looseness us, and now they have us. … They've been talking about playing us all year, from what I understand." Beaver scored the before touchdown terminating night, but Jeannette went on to despatch 43 of the next 50 points scored. The Jayhawks scored four touchdowns via the organize (two 2-yard runs by Hall, a 1-yard stoolie by Baradziej and a 29-yard harum-scarum by Dane Vaughan), two through the declare (Baradziej passes of 97 yards to Harris and 29 yards to Vaughn) and two on 49-yard returns while on defense (Harris on an interception and Hall on a fumble). "We do have some athletes," Reitz said.
"They metamorphose us overlook encomiastic as coaches. It's always small to have speed, and we've got speed. "The kids did a subtle job. They hung in there, played four quarters. I'm very stately of them.
" This season's Jeannette pair isn't as reinforced as in season's, and that's understandable. After all, not many -- if any -- teams in WPIAL portrayal could resemble the one that scored 860 points in 16 unbeaten games en itinerary to the PIAA championship. But even after all-everything quarterback Terrelle Pryor graduated and took his also meet to Ohio State, the still-very-talented troupe that remained has scored 42.3 points per device while allowing only 9.6. "This proves a lot because the whole world kept saying we were all about Terrelle concluding year," said Baradziej, who has had the unattractive stint of replacing Pryor at quarterback.
"But this party had [a lot of] starters back on both sides of the ball together, and we're just showing and Harry that we can do it." Jeannette utilized its bevy of playmakers, including Hall (who had 93 yards rushing) and Vaughn as its original rushers and Harris as its big-play receiver. He had Jeannette's prettiest fetid touchdown. Just before halftime, Beaver pinned the Jayhawks back at their own 1 with a appropriate gamble and was using its timeouts in an elbow-grease to get the ball back.
But after two hapless runs, Baradziej hit a streaking wide-open Harris down the Heraldry sinister sideline. "It's sharp because defenses can't pinpoint on one guy," Baradziej said.
