WMS,
continued from Page A14
quickly when Barker con-
nected with Lelack for 26
yards down to the Houck 36-
yard line. Walling took the ball
around right end to extend the
lead to 16-0.
Offensive
Coordinator
Marcus Larimer said the long
stretches without the ball were
frustrating, but added, “I had
complete confidence in our
offense to execute, and I fo-
cused on making sure we had
a plan to stay efficient and
maximize our opportunities.”
After Sandoval caused
and recovered a fumble on
the ensuing kickoff, M. Lar-
imer’s quick-strike offense
put the game away, needing
only four plays to score again.
Twelve-yard runs by Thurlow
and Brian Schindler took the
ball down to the Houck sev-
en-yard line, where Walling
scored on a perfectly thrown
ball from Barker. Barker’s pitch
to Thurlow for the two-point
completed the scoring at 24-0.
Whiteaker line coach An-
gel Ochoa said, “Houck is al-
ways tough, but we also came
in with a good game plan and
our players did a great job in
executing their assignments.”
T. Larimer summed up the
win, saying, “I preach being as-
signment sound, and we strug-
gled at times with that on de-
fense, but our kids made plays
to keep them out of our end
zone. And when we did get
the ball, our O-line was dev-
astating. Those kids – Malakai
Vasseur, Shaw, Sion Springer,
Young, and Patton, as well as
tight end Joel Knight and half
back Fowler – have been the
key to our success all year.”
Schindler and Fowler led
the defense with 13 and 12
tackles, respectively. Thurlow,
Young, Noah Martinez and
Mike Ridgway made key
tackles for losses. Ochoa added
that tackles Cameron Weath-
ers, Jonathan Echevarria and
Carlos Gallegos made good
contributions against Houck’s
tough interior running game.
Barker finished 7 of 12
passing for 153 yards and two
touchdowns, and Walling had
all three Whiteaker scores on
98 yards rushing and 116 re-
ceiving.
