PAGE A14, KEIZERTIMES, SEPTEMBER 9, 2016 BACK, continued from Page 10 The Celtics then tied the game on its fi rst possession of the second half on a 3-yard touchdown run by Lucas Gar- vey, who carried the ball eight times for 41 yards on the drive.

In his fi rst start at quarter- back, Gilbert completed 15 of 26 passes for 245 yards, two touchdowns and one intercep- tion. “I thought he played great,” Auvinen said. “For him, fi rst varsity start, he showed great composure, really threw the ball well, really directed the of- fense very well, took command out there and that’s some of the things we’ve been seeing, great competition, but he really the last week has come into his own and started to feel com- fortable.” Gilbert said he found out the day before the game he would start at quarterback after a competition with fellow se- nior Tyler Ellertson. “It’s a best friend competi- tion,” Gilbert said. “It’s still go- ing to be a competition.

Scoring seven goals in a soccer game is not easy so I’m happy with the performance.” Javier Zepeda scored his fi rst of two goals with 27:16 remaining in the fi rst half and freshman Luis Lopez knocked in the fi rst goal of his high school career on an assist from Keo less than a minute later. “It’s pretty exciting,” Lopez said. “As a freshman, I got pretty surprised to be starting varsity. For me to score my fi rst goal like that, I just felt excitement going through me.

Van Voorhis was the lead- ing receiver with six catches for 131 yards. Josh Benson also caught six balls for 83 yards.

With the starters back in to start the second half, Zepeda scored his second goal on an assist from Ronald Q. Gamble. Freshman Sebastian Brunk then netted his fi rst high school goal with 18:32 re- maining in the contest. With only 4:50 left to play, Villalvazo fi red a shot at the Lebanon keeper, who was able to keep the ball in play before Luis Martinez fi nished the Celtics fi nal goal of the night. hurry-up offense, McNary ran 90 plays (64 rushes, 26 passes) compared to 52 by North Sa- lem. “We found it’s easier to start fast and then we can always ease back a little bit,” Auvinen said of the new offense implement- ed by coordinator Brad Em- mert. “It’s been a little challeng- ing for the kids to pick it up but they’ve worked their butts off at practice. The goal is at least 80 (plays) and if we can get to 100, that’s probably a good sign, es- pecially when you’re playing a team (North Salem) that’s not very deep. They have a bunch of kids playing the whole time and you could see that they were getting pretty tired.” KEIZER MAYOR CATHY CLARK JOINS GATOR AND DENISE EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 5:30 PM TUNE IN AS WE TALK ALL THINGS KEIZER!
