Kentucky: Suffocating defense leads Warren East to a 55-6 win over Christian County


On Friday, Christian County and host Warren East squared off in game one of the J Allen Builders Bowl. Things started quickly for Warren East, with Jackson McCool busting free for a 36-yard gain. From there, Brayden Lightfoot, who was wide open, easily caught a pass thrown by Dan Parsley. The 8-play, 75-yard drive ended on a Parlsey 11-yard touchdown run to make this a 7-0 game with 9:50 left in the opening quarter. The point after the kick was nailed by Steven Rodriguez.

On the ensuing kickoff, the Colonels coughed the ball up, making the recovery for the Raiders was McCool. The Raiders used just four plays to take the 14-0 lead, with Parsley hitting Jacob Miller for a 19-yard score.

When the Raiders got the ball, they again needed 4 plays to make this a 21-0 game on a 2-yard run by McCool, with 6:54 left in the one-sided opening quarter.

The Raiders defense got a nice play from Atlas Pinson, who got to the quarterback for a loss of three. This became a 28-0 game when Jayden Richey, a 5-11, 230-pound lineman, picked off the pass by #15 (NOT ON THE CHRISTIAN COUNTY ROSTER) for a 7-yard pick-six.

The Raiders defense ended the quarter with a pick from Brayden Tuttle and a sack by Pinson.

Just 35 seconds into the second quarter, we had a 35-0 game after Parsley scampered 5-yards for another score. A little over a minute later, the Raiders were back at it, with Parsley hitting Lightfoot for 16 yards. Seconds later, we had a 41-0 game after McCool powered in from 1-yard out.

The Colonals were 100% outmatched in this one, but those young men would get a much-needed lift on the ensuing kickoff when Trelle Hasking galloped 88 yards for a touchdown, making this a 41-6 game.

Parsley to Lightfoot pass for 35 yards helps set up a 29-yard Parsley touchdown run to make this a 48-7 game, with 3:55 left in the half.

Miller would get a pick for the Raiders to end the half and set up the running clock for the second half.

The Raiders defense, even with the running clock, was able to get a sack from Pinson and a pick from Parsley. In the final frame, Parsley would get another pick, and then the Raiders offense closed out the scoring with 7:54 left in the game on a 7-yard run from Braden McClusky.

2024 With Head Coach Jake Heigel from Brockway High School, PA.

  Jake Heigel Brockway High  Head Football Coach Who was the best player you have ever coached against, and what team did he play for? Carson Neely, Port Allegany  Looking back from day one as a coach up to the present, what have been the low and high points of your coaching career? 2020 was a rough first year. We had maybe 15 kids on the roster in preseason sometime in late June. We ended up with probably 6 starters who had never played football in their lives, which isn’t exactly a recipe for success! I was also ejected from our game against Cowanesque Valley. We lost to DuBois 49-0 to end the difficult season... The future did not look so bright. - But fast forward to 2022, where we won our first playoff game 62-6. Followed that up with a win against the reigning western finals champion, Redbank Valley, in a 7-3 fist fight to advance to the D9 championship. In 2023, we won an overtime thriller against DuBois Area 14–13, avenging a 1-point loss at the 1-yard line the year prior.

Small school football

  As the 2024 football season approaches, I want to say thank you to all of the players, coaches, cheerleaders, band members, officials, and all of the school staff for the good times you are about to give thousands of fans this year. As a fan and a person who covers games, I often get asked why I go to as many smaller school games as I do, and I always tell those asking that there is something special about driving into a small town or village and seeing signs wishing the team well. The crowds might not be as large as the bigger school games, but to a certain extent, they are more into it. I believe that is because almost everyone knows everyone, and it is really a community by itself. The players put their pads on the same as the players at the bigger schools, and they, as with the bigger schools, give it their all as much as they can. The biggest difference some will say is talent; others will say size and speed; but more often than not, at a small school, most of the players are
