Hays Post

SMITH CENTER, KS-Smith Center scored touchdowns on their first six possessions and cruised to a 62-0 shutout of the TMP Monarchs on Friday night at Hubbard Stadium in Smith Center.  The Redmen defense was impressive as well, holding TMP to 115 yards of total offense and never allowed the Monarchs inside the 30 yard line.  Smith Center racked up 414 yards of offense as well.

Kaden Meitler ran for 75 yards and three scores while Trace Haven came off of the bench to rush for 81 yards on five carries and two touchdowns.  One bright spot for TMP was freshman quarterback Carson Jacobs coming off of the bench late in the fourth quarter to complete three pass for 37 yards.  Smith Center is now 1-2 on the year and will travel to Norton on Friday.  TMP drops to 0-3 and will host Plainville for their homecoming matchup this Friday.

Hays falls to Liberal in home opener

Posted on

The Hays High had to wait until week three of the football season to play their first home game. On a picture perfect Friday night the Indians hosted the Liberal Redskins at Lewis Field Stadium.

Hays took their first drive of the game to the end zone over ten plays capped by a Hunter Brown five yard run. Liberal scored immediately when freshman Syris Dunlap took the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a tie ball game.

The rest of the first half was scoreless and Liberal punted the ball on three straight possessions of three plays. Hays drove into Liberal territory on their next three possessions but couldn’t convert on fourth down each time at the 36 yard line.

The Hays defense held Liberal to zero yards at half time. Hays compiled 187 yards, but remained tied with the Redskins 7-7.a

Highlights

Hays recovered fumble on the first play of the second half and four plays later took a 13-7 lead after a three yard run by Kohlton Meyers. Hays botched the extra point missing out on the extra point.

Liberal faced 3rd and 16 on their next drive when it looked like the Indians had intercepted a pass. But the Redskin’s Ty Johnson wrestled the catch away and gained 40 yards for a first down. Liberal finished the long 13 play drive off with a six yard run by Cesar Burciaga taking a 14-13 lead.

Hays looked like they would take the lead traveling inside the Redskin’s 10 yard but fumbled the ball away on third down after 16 plays. Liberal took over at their own nine yard line and went backwards a yard on the next two plays. Liberal though converted on 3rd and 12 and later on 3rd and 5. Liberal then busted out the longest play on offense with a 67 yard run by Burciaga to give Liberal a 21-13 lead.

The Indians had one last chance getting the ball at the 20 yard. Hays traveled to the Liberal 35 yard line but lost the ball on downs, their fourth such turnover of the night. Liberal used three plays to run out the clock and claim the 21-13 win.

Highlights

Liberal gets their first Western Athletic Conference since 2013 and moves to 2-1 overall. Hays falls to 1-2 and 0-2 in the conference. Hunter Brown led the Indians with 130 yards and touchdown. Kohlton Meyers ran for 87 yards and one score. Hays compiled 324 yards compared to the Redskins 179.

Hays heads on the road to 3-0, state ranked Garden City next Friday Night.

Ellis outlasts TMP

Posted on

By Jeremy McGuire
Hays Post

Ellis 42, TMP 32

TMP and Ellis battled all night long on Friday at Lewis Field Stadium.  TMP had their only lead of the game and the season following a 29 yard field goal from Jace Rueschhoff that gave the Monarchs a 3-0 lead.  Ellis would take the lead on a 1 yard run from Easton Smith but couldn’t convert the extra point kick and led 6-3.  TMP would tie the game at six points apiece following a second Rueschhoff field goal.

It was a back and forth second quarter as the two teams would traded scores and had a 12-12 tie.  Ellis scored the next 14 points on a pair of Smith touchdown passes.  The first, a 55 yard strike to Ryan Herl.  The second a 26 yard connection with Geoffrey Soneson.  TMP would pull to within one score just before the half when Gavin Schumacher plunged into the end zone from one yard out making the score 26-19 at halftime.

Ellis would get the ball to start the second half and TMP would promptly take the ball back on a Schumacher interception followed by his second one yard touchdown run to tie the game at 26.  The Railroaders would score 16 unanswered points thanks in large part to Clay Feik who chipped in with a 2 yard run and two point conversion followed by a 39 yard rumble.

TMP would score as Luke Ruder threw his first touchdown pass of the season to Tucker Rhoades midway through the fourth quarter but he Monarchs were not able to convert the two point conversion.  Ruder finished the game with a career high 296 yards through the air and 89 on the ground.  Neither team scored the rest of the way and Ellis picked up their second win, 42-32, of the season and will be at home on Friday against Sublette.  TMP drops to 0-2 and will travel to Smith Center to take on the winless Redmen.

GAME HIGHLIGHTS

 

Hays falls 35-14 at Great Bend

Posted on

Hays and Great Bend met for the 79th time since 1923 as the two opened up Western Athletic Conference play on Friday night. For Hays it was the second consecutive week they had faced a ranked opponent after beating then ranked Scott City on the road 31-21. Great Bend entered the game ranked #5 after a 57-13 win over Coffeyville in week 1.

Hays fumbled the football away on the third play of the game setting up Great Bend’s quarterback Jacob Murray for a one yard touchdown plunge. The Panthers had returned the fumble to the one yard line to set up the short field. Hays went 11 plays on the next drive and reached the Panther 21 yard line before losing the ball on downs. Great Bend responded with a 13 play 79 yard scoring drive to take a 13-0 lead after missing the extra point with four seconds left in the first quarter.

Highlights

The Indians again got into Great Bend territory but punted the ball away. Leading by two scores the Panthers drove into Hays territory but threw an incomplete pass on fourth down. The Indians finally got their offense going on the ensuing drive as Keaton Markley finished off an 8 play 63 yard drive, scoring his first career varsity touchdown on a 7 yard rush. Great Bend punted for the first time all season on the next drive giving Hays the ball at their own 33 yard line with 31 seconds left before the half. With the wind at their backs and no time outs Hunter Brown hit Collyn Kreutzer on a 54 yard pass to the fifteen yard line. After spiking the ball to stop the clock Brown hit Kruezter again this time for 15 yards and a touchdown. Logan Clark hit both extra points of the first half to give Hays a 14-13 lead with nine seconds before half.

Coach Randall Rath

Great Bend took the opening drive of the second half for ten plays and 35 yard touchdown by Cal Marshall. Murray flipped the ball to the corner of the end zone for a two point conversion to go up 21-14. Great Bend stayed with the ground and pound attack in the second half as Jacob Murray scored from a yard out and Cal Marshall bolted to the end zone from 53 yards. Great Bend outscored Hays 22-0 in the second half, taking the 35-14 win.
