Rocket patience led to opportunities in win

8/26/2023

0 Comments

 
To say Jaxon Covell had a good game  might be an understatement. Number 22 inflicted a lot of damage on both sides of the ball in the Rocket season opening 34-16 win on the road against the Franklin Knights.
Offensively Covell had 145 all-purpose yards, but it was a 34-yard scamper after a fumble recovery that broke the back of the Knights who were actually dominating the Rockets in the statistic department.
Picture
“That scoop and score by Jaxon was huge,” Rocket coach Mike Reynolds said after the game who also praised the junior tailback's offenseive effort Friday as well. “He’s quite an exceptional guy. He works real well with that offensive line unit —he was very patient tonight. You saw him pick away at some runs and eventually you saw some of them break out.”
​
Covell also had a late interception to close the lid on the Knight’s hope of a comeback for good.
Picture
He, of course, wasn’t the only Rocket who had a good game. 

Ian McDonald had a very good game under center. Throwing for 108 yards and two touchdowns while adding another 29 yards on the ground and two more touchdowns. He drilled one to a sprinting Covell, hitting him in stride over the middle for a 50-yard touchdown in the second half. His five tackles on defense also helped stop Franklin at key times.
Picture
Kameron Mong broke away on a huge 27 -yard reverse run in the second half that set up the first of McDonald's touch down passes. Mong had 50 all-purpose yards. Mong also converted a two-pointer by going only where the 6’-2” receiver could rein in the McDonald pass. “That was an absolute circus catch, no one can defend that when he’s up that high,” Reynolds said.
Picture
Defensively the Rockets struggled a bit as the largely senior Franklin offense seems to be able to run at will on them. But the Rockets managed to make a big play here or there to take advantage of Knight miscues. They bent but seldom broke. They only gave up two touchdowns and a long field goal.
Picture
“I’m really proud of our kids for the level of conditioning they showed, they really played a clean football game. We had minimal issues on the field, we protected the ball and our kids just kept (raising their) intensity as the game went on,” Reynolds said. “In the third and fourth quarter I felt they really took control of the game by executing and playing solid offense.”
Picture
That intensity they kept up showed the difference in patience and conditioning of the two squads. Both teams started hot, but when the Rocket's stalled, the Knights self-destructed. ​
Picture
"In the second half we just made too many darn mistakes," Franklin head coach Matt Turk said. "We were very impressed with the way we were able to run the football at will, but again, a few of those mistakes, fumbling the football, a couple of penalties and a couple bad mental mistakes hurt us. At the end of the third quarter three of our starters got hurt and Titusville smartly picked on our younger guys, I would’ve done the same thing. We've gotta get hydrated, we gotta eat better, keep those cramps at bey."
Picture
The Rockets  started the game by methodically taking the opening drive 63-yards largely on Covell’s legs, setting up the five-yard run by McDonald. Their offense stalled only getting one first down the rest of the half. They kept it close with some key defensive stops and help from Knight penalties and missed opportunities to put points on the board.

The Rockets were fortunate to take a one-point lead into halftime. Offensively they were held to under a hundred yards while Franklin amassed over 150 yards on the ground and in the air.
Picture
Picture
Turk's Knights looked like a different team than the 0-10 squad from last year.
Picture
Entering the second half with the ball the Knight's looked to build on their first half momentum, but they
​fumbled on the 34 where Covell picked it up and ran to the end zone. The Rocket's surprisingly went for two and were stopped.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Knights were still seemingly undaunted and marched right back down field to tie up the game.
Finally the Rocket offense took the field with half the third quarter over with and put together a very similar drive to the first possession of the game.

McDonald again scamped in on a seven-yard run. A blocked extra-point however kept the game close. 

The Knights once again moved the ball getting into the red zone before mistakes cost them again.

​They did manage a 
Nate Pfennigwerth 45-yard field goal to start the fourth quarter  bringing them to within three at 19-16.

The Rockets then closed the door.


McDonald to Covell’s 50-yarder was followed by a great one handed catch in full stride by Mason Titus putting the game out of reach for the Knights.

“That’s just kids having fun on a Friday night right there,” Reynolds said of the final two scores.

​"H
ats off to Franklin, they’ve got some nice power,. They were pounding it down pretty well tonight."

Reynolds clock management and patience getting off plays in his no huddle offense was a strategy that worked well for the Rocket’s this week.

"I'm very proud of these guys. They work real hard and we pound on them pretty good in practice. We do that to get them to this point, so when they face this test on Friday night, they’re ready

“We really want to make sure we can possess the ball, because if we can own the time of possession, it’s real hard for the other team to score touchdowns,” he said.

They’ll test that theory again next week when they head to Sharpsville.
​

“It’s Caullin Summers 101,” he said about the Blue Devils star quarterback.

​ “He’s the guy right there, he’s probably the best QB in District 10. We’re going to have to take care of business. Our defense is going to have to improve. We need to put points up on the board and we need to slow them down.”


Reynolds said playing in Sharpsville is a very unique experience.

​“It's a neighborhood stadium with narrow sidelines and it’s a grass field.”

​Sharpesville defeated Wilmington 49-42. Summers reported had seven touchdown passes including a 63-yarder with only 25 seconds left in the game to win
​

Kick off is next Friday at 7 p.m.

This was a photo I made years ago at the Tool City championships. I'm going through old files on a recently repaired computer and stumbled on this. It won an award I remember. Don't remember the year, but it was pre-2015 for sure. Could go back as far as 2000? A good one for Rocket wrestling history.

Skipping nicknames in Franklin

8/22/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture
Getting called “Chicken Foot” might lead to scuffles in the playground. But when it is a nickname given to you by an adoptive family of professional stone skippers - it is a badge of honor.

Titusville ninth-grader David Ohmer was given the nickname at last year's Rock in River Festival because he carried a lucky chicken foot. His brother Luke “Electric Luke Orchestra” Ohmer, a Titusville seventh-grader, also received his nickname last year. Both are professional stone skippers competing along with their dad, former Titusville resident Dave “Spiderman” Ohmer.
Picture
The three competed last weekend at the Pennsylvania State Championships known as the Rock in River Festival in Franklin.

Spiderman Ohmer is a multiple-state champion and considered one of the best the sport has to offer. 

On Saturday, Chicken Foot had a better toss than his old man, but the senior Ohmer had the second-highest cumulative total of the entire field. Neither placed in the top three for the longest single tosses this year, but last year young David took third place in the state.

Chicken Foot and Electric Luke may seem too young to be professionals, but there isn’t an age requirement. The designation is determined by the number of skips one can throw. To achieve pro status, a competitor has to record a toss of at least 30 skips during the amateur division and then “elect” to go pro. Once you go pro, you are no longer eligible to compete as an amateur. Both young Ohmer's qualified from the youth and amateur division's last year.
Picture
Last Saturday, Chicken Foot's top  toss of 37,  bested Spiderman’s 36. Electric Luke threw a 28 as his top throw on the day. Spiderman's high cumulative total was due to consistency with his lowest total being 20 skips.

Both younger Ohmers had clunker tosses of under 10 skips that set them back a bit.

The three combined for 379 skips on the day. The pro division combined total for the competition was 2,979. There was also an amateur and kids division with 100s more skips.

The competition allows each competitor six rocks. They go in order, throwing in three rounds of two throws each while a panel of judges counts by eye to determine a final score. 

Chicken Foot’s 37 was 13 off the championship toss by Tidioute’s Andy “Big Rock” Severns, who repeated as champion. In 2022, Severns broke the state record with a toss of 53. That year Chicken Foot was the third-best in the state with a 44-skip toss.

The world record is 88, set by Kurt "Mountain Man" Steiner in 2013 at a different location. Analysts who have gone over the footage are debating if there was one more final mini jump at the end making it 89 skips. But as of today, the Guinness record sits at 88. Rock skipping has given Steiner a bit of acclaim. He has been featured in documentaries, news stories and missed this year’s Rock in River Festival in Franklin because he was asked to skip rocks in Europe for a music video by the Chemical Brothers and Beck.

The Mountain Man and Spiderman have become good friends over the years. They even get together to go on rock hunting excursions, often bringing along Chicken Foot and Electric Luke.

Tornado warning: A D1 title and then the heavens opened up

7/13/2023

They play like tornados, and that resulted in a District 1 championship last week. Carrying the banner around the field meant they were headed into the four team sectional tournament.

When District 3 pulled out, it sent the league scrambling to reset the bracket. Titusville, who was to play District 3, the drew  Corry while St. Mary's drew the first round bye. The tournament was schedule July 12 to 15 in Brookville.

If the rain chills out, they should have a champion by the weekend.
In the opening round game, already delayed and hour due to weather and a bit of a grounds crew tactical error trying speed up getting the field ready, Corry was up to bat in the top of the third with the score tie at 2-2. They had a runner on first and no outs. Pitches to the second batter of the inning were cut short when the umpires stopped play and sent players and fans to seek shelter as the heavens just opened. Folks started looking around for the Ark it was raining so hard.

With everyone either in their cars or huddled around under the concession stand pavilion, cell phones began to clamor away. "Tornado warning" one of the youngster in the crowd hollered out. Suddenly everyone's face was glowing from the red weather service radar maps on their phones. The rain was now coming in sideways and several of the players were visibly scared. But no tornado was seen or felt, though the cold rain flooding everything, including the ground under the pavilion.

Earlier a similar outburst from Mother Nature and a bit of a grounds crew tactical error, the game was delayed about an hour.
Picture
Prior to that there was the makingings of a classic punch - counterpunch ball game.

District 1 champ, Corry got things started when the tiny, but speedy DePaul twins owned the base pads. Gracie started drawing the walk. Sophie then put down a very fine bunt that she beat out and her sister never hesitated as she rounded second and getting to third. Despite Titusville's starting pitcher Harper Wolfkiel striking put the next three batters, the DePaul girls were smart and aggressive runners and scored on bobbled or passed balls.
Picture
The top of Titusville's line up Hannah Ringer turned a single into stand on third base. Two batters later Laila Greenhouse knocked her in. Corry's pitcher, Sophie DePaul did a nice job not getting rattled and got out of the inning with a one run lead.

Wolfkiel on the mound for Titusville also seemed to settle down and after giving up a walk proceeded to strike out the next three batters.

​In two innings she had six strikeouts.
When Titusville came up to bat the skies began looking pretty dark but it appeared as though it was going around the Brookville fields.

Kylie Yocum led off a scurried one out into the infield and then beat out the throw, which was also off its mark and made it to the foul territory fence when, for some reason, the Corry players didn't know who should get the ball back to the pitcher.
Picture
Yocum alertly made it to second and after hesitating a little dashed to third. When she got to third virtually every one on Titusville's side of the fence telling her to keep going which she did and scored an error riddle inside the park, inside the infield, home run to tie the balled at two-a-piece.

​
And that would be all she wrote for scoring until they meet back up again today at 4 p.m. if the weather cooperates. The winner will then take on St. Mary's at 6 p.m.
Picture
Prior to Wednesday's monsoon, Titusville reached the District 25 championship game with wins over Mid-East (9-4), Meadville-Vernon (16-1), and Cambridge Springs/Saegertown (7-3).

​Mid-East then fought back to face them again, this time in the finals. Mid-East pulled off the season saving 11-9 win to force the if necessary game, but Titusville was ready and handled M-E 11-4 to claim the title. 
Picture
Titusville’s top of the order, Hannah Ringer, Capri Warner and Laila Greathouse, were lights out in the title game, each scoring in their first three at bats. Cleanup batter Harper Wolfkiel also scored once and drove in three. Mary Lesko also scored once and drove in four runs.
Picture
"I’m pretty confident with the top of our line up,” said head coach Shawn Beers Wednesday night standing under a shelter watching the rain. “It’s a shame we couldn’t get (the game) in, we were coming back to the top of the line up and I think they were ready to put the bat on the ball and make something happen.”
​

But now they are going to have to wait. 
Picture
"“I can’t say when we started all this that I had expectations that we were going to go as far as we have,” Beers said.  “You never know. We’ve had some success in travel ball level and a lot of our team is our Lightning travel ball team.” 

As for how far he thinks they can go he says it’s about coming out to play. “We know we have a good team, so we’ll see. It’s exciting. Its the first time a Titusville team has won the district championship since 2013  and even then it was a combined team with Mid-East. So this time it is truly just Titusville - so that is something to be proud of, something for the girls to be proud of. These girls have worked really hard and they deserve everything.``

Including, hopefully, a dry field to play on.

Titusville battling back in the consi's

Before the start of the third inning of Titusville's home game against New Bethlehem Wednesday, the ll-star infield of the gold clad 12 and under baseballers decided to practice their double play tosses. Like Tinkers, to Evers to Chance, the fabled hall of fame double play impresarios, Huck to Smith to Oviatt flawlessly moved the ball like lightning across the diamond.

“They just do that on their own,” said head coach Adam Huck.

This type of dedication to practice led to some pretty impressive, and important, plays in the field Wednesday in their third game of the double-elimination tournament. Though they never converted a double play on three attempts, they did manage to keep those baserunners out of scoring position while recording valuable outs and thwarting any glimmer of momentum.

And one diving stop by Miles Smith with a from his belly toss to Carter Huck at second for the force out drew gasps and applause from the crowd, including the New Bethlehem side.


“They love to play together,” coach Huck said of his son and Smith. “These kids are beginning to understand where they need to be in certain situations. That’s what you gotta do in all stars.” 

It's been this level of play from the young team that has them in a position to take on a very good Butler team tonight. Huck said he only has two 12-year-olds on the team.

They lost a tight battle to Clarion 3-1 in the first game of the tournament on a soggy field in Rimersburg.
“Clarion is always good, always well coached. I was pretty happy we went out there and played well,” coach Huck said.

They bounced back with a strong come from behind win against Knox 6-3. Coach Huck said that catcher Noah Smith was brilliant in that game with good at-bats and 
stellar work behind the plate. "I don't think he had a single passed ball the whole game."
​


This set up a home game against New Bethlehem where it was really no contest. Titusville's bats, aggressive base-running, speed and heads-up p[lay was just too much for their visitors.

Though New Bethlehem struck first in the top of the first, once Miles Smith drilled a rocket back off the pitcher, it was obvious who was going to prevail. His cousin Kellen Smith then sent a ball into the outfield for a double and the rabbit-like Miles flew around the bases from first to score and tie the game. On a throw home, Kellen Smith ended up on third.

Then, noting the New Bethlehem pitcher was not paying close attention as he walked back to the mound, Kellen stole home to take the lead they would never relinquish.

​By the end of the inning they were up 3-1 after Bowen Wakefield decided to swing at a ball over his head and managed to put it into right field to score Huck for the RBI.

This was the kind of night they would have where everything seemed to work. 
​
In the end they just poured it on. They scored three in the first, five in the second and another five in the third. New Bethlehem managed to score enough in the fifth to make Titusville bat, but it wasn’t long before they ended the contest 15-4.

Coach Huck complimented his three pitchers on the night. “It was a complete team effort on the mound tonight.”
Charlie Ackerman did the majority of the pitching, only giving up one run. Bowen Wakefield came in to relieve and Brennen Alberth finished the game. “Bowen had a really great game tonight, he put the bat on the ball a lot and came in to do what we needed him to do on the mound,” couch Huck said.

He also pointed out Oviatt’s play as a first time all-star. A key early hit drove in a couple runs and played a solid first base.

Huck’s son had a monster game - scoring twice and reaching base in each of his at-bats. He drove in the final two runs in the walk-off victory.
​
Titusville moves on to face Butler in the consolation quarter-finals tonight at home. Coach Huch said Butler and Franklin are probably the two best teams in the tournament and knows his team has their work cut out for them if they are going to stay alive.

Franklin takes on Cranberry tonight as well  in the winners bracket semi-finals in Franklin. Oil City hosts southern Clarion County. All games are slated to start at 6 p.m.

Titusville pickles Oil City to win

6/25/2023

Picture
Pickleball might be the fastest growing athletic activity in the nation right now, and that is good, but getting in a pickle in baseball is still a bad thing. A heads up play by Titusville's catcher Coleman Knapp caught Oil City's Casey Rybak snoozing and suddenly the cat and mouse game between third and home was on. The cat won.

Oil City's chance to take early momentum was snuffed out by an alert catcher and an infield that knew how to handle a run-down.

Coach Keith Klinger said it was one helluva a baseball game. 

Tituvelle won 5-4

Titusville chipped away. They got one in the first when Aaron Burrows reached first on an Oil City error and then made it around the bases scoring on a Knapp base hit . They scored again in the third after Brody Sellen singled and got into scoring position for Burrows to drive him home.
Picture
Picture
Oil City finally got across home plate in the fifth when Gavin Keith scored. Titusville answered in the bottom half of the inning  when Sellen and Burrows both scored again going up 4-1.
Picture
Picture
Oil City made it interesting with a three run sixth-inning to tie.
Picture
Picture
Again Titusville answered when lead-off batter Kaden Currier walked and ended up eventually making around the bases. Brett Schmidt closed down Oil City in the top of the seventh with a couple strikeouts.
