    Freshmen rally to win
McNary High School’s
freshman football team traveled
to McMinnville High School
Wednesday, Oct. 7, and came
away with a come-from-be-
hind 26-13 win over the young
Grizzlies.
The win puts the Celtic’s re-
cord at 3-3 overall and 3-2 in
the Great Valley Conference.
The Celtics started the game
by driving 65 yards, led by start-
ing quarterback Ryan Bamford.
The drive ended with Jacob
Fritts’ six-yard run for touch-
down. After the conversion run
failed McNary led 6-0.
That lead held through most
of the second quarter when
McMinnville broke through
with a fi ve-yard touchdown
pass and point-after kick for a
7-6 lead.
Bamford engineered a long
drive that stalled on the Mc-
Minnville 1-yard line and the
half ended with the young
Celtics trailing 7-6.
The Celtics opened the third
quarter with quarterback Da-

Revis followed a good de-
fensive stand with a 77-yard
touchdown run and the Celt-
ics led 20-7 at the end of three
quarters.
McMinnville opened the
fourth quarter with a 35-yard
touchdown pass and cut the
lead to 20-13, but Revis re-
sponded with a 60-yard touch-
down run for the fi nal margin.
Revis led the offense with
334 yards rushing.
“That was one of the fi n-
est efforts we have seen around
here in a long time,” said run-
ning back coach Jason Ebbs.
“Chantz is one of those kids
who does his job and doesn’t
say much,” offered Ted Anag-
nos, head coach of the freshman
team. “We appreciate his lead-
ership and effort very much.”
Revis chose to give credit to
the offensive line.
“When those guys block as
well as they have been lately,
anyone could run through the
hole,” said Revis.
“Line coaches Todd Hatley
and Geoff White (both former
McNary offensive linemen) are
doing a great job coaching our
line,” commented offensive co-
ordinator George Carter.
The offensive line is led by
tackles Christian Messina and
Jabez Rhoades, guards Joshua
Schmeltzer and Arik Dela-
Cruz, tight ends Ian Koenig and
Brent Preston, along with cen-
ters Cole Downer and Collin
Penner.
Defensive coordinator Nick
Phillips complimented the de-
fense led by linebackers Robert
Benson, Tyler Covalt, Griffi n
Oliveira and Bo Working. Har-
ris had a key interception to
end the Grizzlies’ last hope in
the game.

Lady Celts lose
to Grizzlies 2-1

The McNary High School
girls varsity soccer team end-
ed up on the losing end of a
2-1 match with McMinnville
High School Thursday, Oct. 8.
“They have a lot more ex-
perience, but the teams played
straight up even in the fi rst
half,” said AJ Nash, McNary
head coach.
Nash credited goalkeeper
Sydney Snapp and sweeper
Abigail Smith for excellent
play throughout the game.
Senior Kelli Miller deliv-
ered a number of dangerous
crosses on set pieces but Mc-
Nary was unable to fi nd the
back of the net early in the
second half.
“They were physically and
mentally tough and we had
a lot of good passing around
and good attempts and ideas,
but just couldn’t put one in,”
Miller said.
In the 55th minute, the
Grizzly midfi eld caught the
Celts in transition on one of
the fi rst mistakes of the game
in the backfi eld, and ended
up with a breakaway goal.
The McMinnville team struck

again on a header off a corner
kick in the 70th minute.
“It was one of those goals
when you just tip your hat and
move on. It was that solid,”
Nash said.
McNary
immediately
changed their line up replac-
ing a midfi elder and defender
with forwards, and earned a
penalty kick in 78th minute
fi nished by Jessy Shore.
The loss puts the team at
2-2 and fi fth in the Greater
Valley Conference, but there is
still a lot of movement in the
rankings.
The loss came on the heels
of a 4-1 win over McKay
High School, which both
Miller and Nash said was the
team’s best game to date.
“You could see the drive in
the way we took chances and
risks that we hadn’t before,”
Miller said. “Our goal now is
to play smarter and fi nd the
simple passes that move the
ball up the fi eld.”
