McKenzie 58 Jewell 32 MARIST RUNS WILD AT BROADWAY IN WIN OVER SEASIDE Gulls fall 35-3 By GARY HENLEY The Astorian Seaside’s tight end Levi Card falls back after receiving a low pass from the quarterback. S EASIDE — Marist vs. Seaside II certainly didn’t live up to the hype and excitement of last year’s showdown in Eugene. Somewhere along the line, the rematch just never found the right track. Maybe it was the eight all-league play- ers the Gulls lost to graduation. Or it could have been the full moon on Friday the 13th. Or maybe it was just Marist running back Lucas Tuski. More than likely it was a little of all three, but mostly the third choice. Tuski — Marist’s 6-foot, 235-pound sophomore running back — was tough to stop in the fi rst quarter and even tougher by the fourth, as he ran for four touchdowns in the Spartans’ 35-3 victory over the Gulls. Marist certainly had a little payback for Seaside, which won 33-22 last season on the Spartans’ home fi eld. Ranked No. 3 in the state in the latest 4A coaches poll, Marist held all the cards in the rematch. And the ace was Tuski. The big sophomore fi nished with 25 carries for 175 yards and four scores, the Seaside’s Andrew Teubner runs the ball past several Marist defenders in one of the fi nal plays of the game. last being a 71-yard run late in the fourth quarter. The Spartans didn’t need much else — although quarterback Max Campbell completed 13-of-20 passes for 154 yards and a touchdown. Seaside was playing just six days fol- lowing a Week 1 loss to the Henley Hor- nets, while the Spartans were coming off a 55-13 win over Sweet Home, in which Campbell threw for 338 yards and six touchdowns, and Tuski rushed for 182 yards. The numbers were a little less impres- sive Friday night at Broadway Field, but still got the job done. Meanwhile, the Gulls couldn’t kick- start their offense, which managed just three points, a 33-yard fi eld goal by Kaleb Bartel in the second quarter. Other than that, Seaside’s best play was the kickoff return, and even that couldn’t get past the penalties. The Gulls were penalized seven times for 75 yards, with the fl ags wiping out more than a few big Seaside plays. Jake Black was Seaside’s leading ball carrier (10 carries, 41 yards), while Levi Card caught three passes from Led- ger Pugh for 27 yards. Gavin Rich added an interception for the Seaside defense, which limited Marist to just seven points in the fi rst half. The difference came in the second half, when the Spartans collected a total of 12 fi rst downs to Seaside’s three. The Gulls take to the road for four of their next fi ve games, including back-to- back games at Gladstone and Astoria the next two weeks. ATHLETES OF THE WEEK VICKI RAMVICK Knappa Akiko Miller T he Logger junior got off to a modest start in the championship bracket of Saturday’s Neah-Kah-Nie Invitational (won by Knappa), with two kills, two aces and two blocks in a win over Clatskanie. She followed with four kills and three blocks in a win over Toledo. And in the championship victory over Clatskanie, Ramvick led Knappa with eight kills and eight blocks. “I have to give a shout out to Victoria Ramvick, who really helped rally the team through the last games of the day,” said coach Jeff Kaul. “Vicki really kept the team alive with her cheering everyone on, and keeping the team focused.” JAKE MORROW AUSTIN LITTLE Warrenton Warrenton Mindy Little T he senior quarterback-receiver duo came up just short of breaking two school records in the 49-34 loss to Yamhill-Carlton on Sept. 6. In addition to hooking up for two touchdowns, Morrow completed 20-of-31 passes for 283 yards, the second-most passing yards in a single game since Brian Malt- man passed for 305 against Dayton in 1996. Little caught 10 passes for 193 yards — also the second-most since Chris Ocana had 197 yards receiving vs. Willamina in 2014. His 10 receptions tied Zach Gantenbein for second on the all-time list, behind Derek Luck’s 12 receptions against Knappa in 2012.
