Hounds Outpaced in Second Half by Indians


The Dixie Greyhounds played well for a half against the Carlisle Indians.  At the break it was tied 7-all; AJ Shockey scored Dixie's 1st TD on a short run. It was a rainy, miserable night for passing the ball.  And using the pass is something the Greyhounds have used often in previous games.  Although they scored on a 60 yard pass play in the second half from Devin Worley to Dakota Grice, that pass was a wounded duck that Grice was just able to pull down.   It was 43-13 at the end of the night. 

 Dixie did come close to scoring a 2nd time late in the first half, but Carlisles defense held firm on 4th and 3 inside their own 10 yard line.  AJ Shockey came close to tackling DJ Chambers in the endzone for safety on their possesion, but the loss did put the ball on the 1 line yard line where Carlisle had to punt.  It was not a a good punt,but a critical Dixie penalty moved the ball back from about the 35 yard line to midfield - making a hail mary pass even harder to make. And Dixie failed at their 2nd chance with seconds left on the clock.

 In the second half Dixie had several 3 and outs on offense, and their defense could not contain Carlisles explosive running attack spearheaded by DJ Chambers. They never got into a rhythm with the pass. In other games Dixie has been able to go to the pass when needed to loosen up defenses. But under the slick conditions, it was hard for either team to handle the ball.  The Indians had one possession where they fumbled 2 plays in a row, losing the ball the 2nd time to Austin Guerhing.  But Dixie could not take advantage of the turnover.

 The Indians even had a successful onside kick as Dixie seemingly could not get back on track.  Gamers to the end Dixie tried to go for a 1st down deep in the their own territory on a 4th and 7 but failed, giving Carlisle another easy score. So Dixie ends their season at 5-5. Despite the win, it appears that Carlisle will just miss the playoffs as they are unofficially ranked at number 9 in their region.

Hounds Are Top Dog on Friday Night








In an exciting game that came down to the last seconds, Dixie came from behind to overcome the Milton Union Bulldogs and walk off the field top dogs on senior night. In the 1st half Dixie struggled to establish a running game and had turnovers. Milton Union was able to enter the locker room at halftime with a 14-6 lead.

 The second half began as a flag fest, the two teams amassed more yardage in penalties than they did on offense.  But the Dixie passing offense established itself and Dixie kept pace with the Bulldogs. At one point, they were down by 2 scores but managed to go ahead on 4th and 6 when Devin Worley threw a pass to Dakota Grice for a 72 yard touchdown with 2:55 left in the game.

But that lead didn’t last a minute as Milton Union scored quickly and were back on top. It was time for the 2 minute drill. The go ahead score was set up by a Seth Grubb catch to the 13 yard line. Devin Worley scrambled on a passing play and ran the 13 yards to score and put Dixie up for good with 15 seconds left on the clock. Milton Union tried for a hail mary with 2.8 seconds left in the game but the Hounds defended well and time ran out for a 38-35 victory.

 Scoring for Dixie: AJ Shockey 40 yard pass from Worley; Worley 1 yd td run, Worley 35 yd TD run, Dakota Grice 32 yd pass; Grice 82 yard pass; Worley 13 yd td run.

Dixie now has a 5-4 record as they go visit Carlisle next week. Dixie is not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, but a lot would have to go their way to catapult themselves into the top 8. On the other hand, they have guaranteed for themselves at least a .500 record and if they defeat Carlisle then they would have a winning record and also knock Carlisle out of any chance of making the post season.

Arcanum Advances








Arcanum won a rematch against the Dixie Greyhounds in the opening round the state volleyball tournament in Brookville. They won the first match about a week ago and although they repeated their 3 set win – it was a little harder to pull out that 3rd set win this time around.  The scoring was 25-10, 25-13, 25-22.

Tigers Win Thriller at South







The Ansonia Tigers won a thriller at Twin Valley South on Friday night. The game would not be decided until the very end of the last quarter.  It was a contest where both teams left it all on the field and went all out for 4 quarters.  The Tigers made some gutsy calls down the stretch and managed to come away with a 35-28 victory.

Patriots Playing for Pride











Both Tri-Village and Tri-County North have similar records - the Patriots entered the game with 8 wins and North entered the game with 7 wins.  And at this stage of the season, the teams are jockeying for position in the middle of the league.  With a game away from home at the end of the season, it would have been easy for the Patriots to mail it in and call it a night.  But the team was resilient and played with pride. It took 5 sets, and also playing from behind - but a “we are not quitting on this night” Patriots team rode home with the victory, spoiling North’s senior night.  Scoring was: 25-22, 14-25, 22-25, 25-17, 15-3.
