OAKLAND,Calif.(AP) – Eddie Royal returned a punt 85 yards for the tiebreaking score, Willie McGahee ran for 163 yards and Tim Tebow threw two touchdown passes to lead the Denver

Broncos to a 38-24 victory over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

McGahee had a 60-yard touchdown run that tied the game on the first play after Carson Palmer threw his second of three interceptions for the Raiders (4-4). McGahee then added a 24-yarder to ice it.

The Broncos (3-5) didn’t allow the Raiders’ offense to generate anything in the fourth quarter and won for the second time in three games with Tebow as the starter.

Tebow did much of his damage with his legs, rushing for a career-high 117 yards on 12 carries.

He did enough damage with his arm to keep the Raiders honest, throwing touchdowns to Eric Decker and Royal.

Playing in their season finale, Fort Hays State men’s soccer allowed a late goal, falling to Simon Fraser, the No. 1 in NCAA Division II men’s soccer, on Sunday in Sioux Falls, S.D. The Tigers finished its inaugural season with a 11-5-2 record, highlighted by a 10-game unbeaten streak.
 
Simon Fraser scored the game-winning goal in the 87th minute on a penalty kick from Josh Bennett, lifting the No. 1 team to the 2-1 win.
 
The Tigers fell behind 1-0 in the 23rd minute when Simon Fraser scored off a header from Carlo Basso on a cross from Chris Bargholz.
 
A strong second half helped the Tigers pull even with SFU. The score was deadlocked at 1-1 after Patrick Brennan scored his first goal of the season in the 63rd minute. Ricardo Yeverino led Brennan who beat the goalkeeper to the left corner of the net. The assist was Yeverino’s fifth of the season.
 
In the second 45 minutes, the Tigers seemed to control the game, outshooting Simon Fraser 9-6. The first half was much different with SFU totaling 10 shots to one shot for the Tigers.
 
Ryan Pakieser made six saves for the Tigers, while allowing the two goals.
 
The Tigers finished the 2011 season 11-5-2, including a 10-game unbeaten streak. The 2011 season was the first in school history for FHSU men’s soccer.

Hays High Falls To Hutchinson, 27-21

Posted on

Despite home field advantage and the defense coming up with 5 fumble recoveries, the Indians fall to Hutchinson Friday night, 27-21.

Unfortunately, the Indians had their chances, but just failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities.

The Indians led once in the 1st quarter, 14-7, but never led again. Hays High came up with a touchdown on a run from QB Austin Unrein late in the 4th to make  the score 27-21. With a little over 5 minutes remaining in the game, Hay High attempted the onside kick, but never got a hold of the ball again. The Salthawks ran out the clock, and came away with the victory.

Hutchinson had 455 total yards, Hays High had 261.

Plainville Cardinals Football On Y102

Posted on

Plainville returns to the Class 2-1A playoffs in 2011 to face Sacred Heart in Salina tonight. The Cardinals have made it to the postseason four times now in the last six years but will looking for their first playoff win since 1992.

Plainville (8-1) suffered their first loss of the season a week ago in LaCrosse, 14-8. That loss sent the Cardinals packing for the opening round which will kickoff at 7PM from Salina Stadium.

The Cardinals still have the 6th best scoring offense in Class 2-1A at a mark of 40 points per game. Plainville has evened the carries out in their powerful rushing attack to four guys. Trevor Axelson, Harrison Gilliland, Dalton Werner, and Kyle Becker each have over 50 carries so far this year. Axelson leads the way with 1,085 yards on 99 carries.

Coach Joe Simon, now in his 3rd year with the Cards, feels like it did his team good to play in a game like last week in LaCrosse. The intense atmosphere should have them mentally focused and sharp for the start of the playoffs.

Sacred Heart (6-3) has won four straight games since starting the season 2-3. The Knights bring in a more balanced attack, but will look for junior Drew Diederich to get things going in their ground game.

The one similar opponent both Sacred Heart and Plainville played this year was LaCrosse. The Knights lost to the Leopards 42-13 back in week 5 of the regular season. The Cardinals dropped their game to LaCrosse by six last Friday.

The winner tonight will take on either Ellis or Stanton County next weekend. Kickoff from Salina is set for 7:00 and the Fort Hays State University Office of Admissions Pregame Show begins at 6:30 on The Country Bull, Y102.
