Announcement
The Bucks want a share of the MAC Championship and a state playoff berth. Week 10 has the Pirates and the Bucks in a Medina County Showdown. Buckeye has won the last 2 meetings between the two by scores of 24-7 last year and 33-14 in the 2000 season.
The 2001 game saw neither team score in the opening period, but the Bucks made up for it later in the game. It was cold with snow flurries in Shreve that night, as Buckeye opened the scoring with 1:30 to go in the half on a 38 yard run by Forest Mercer. Dustan Dolata added the point to make it 7-0. Black River came right back on a Kyle Clark 6 yard pass to Stefan Mullins with 6 seconds left, and it was knotted at 7 for intermission.
The second half was all Buckeye as they pounded the Pirates with 17 unanswered points. Brandon Grim started it with a 30 yard run with a 1:30 in the 3rd to make it 14-7. Then Dolata added a 40 yard field goal with 9:39 in the 4th to give the Bucks a 17-7 edge.
Tim Maxworthy picked Clark off, the last of his 3 INTs, and went 30 yards for the final score with 8:40 left, and the Bucks were 24-7 winners.
The Bucks Offense managed 177 yards rushing, but on had 1 completion for 6 yards, and were intercepted 3 times. The Defense came up huge though, as they recovered 4 fumbles and picked off 4 passes. Black River had only 97 yards rushing to go with their 85 yards passing.
This week is the game Buckeye has been looking forward to. Strap it up tight guys, bring your 'A' game, and set the tone early.
You dictate the outcome and finish the season with a win!
