Shelby 45

Evangel 14

Homecoming has traditionally been reserved to honor alumni and highlight the current year’s seniors.  Shelby tried to honor that tradition by honoring the previous two State Championship Teams of 1998 and 2006 at halftime of this Homecoming game.  One out of two ain’t bad.

Evangel received the opening kickoff of the game.  After fumbling the initial snap, they could not convert the first down and punted to Shelby.  Shelby had a six play offensive series that ended with an interception of a Jones to King pass.  On their third play of the second offensive series, Evangel lost their first fumble, which was recovered by Lee Parsons to start Shelby’s second series.  Shelby took the ball at the 12 yard line and Chad King scored on a 4 yard run, the second in the series.  A high snap on the PAT was fielded by Cody Jones and carried into the end zone for a 2 pt conversion. 

Score Shelby 8 Evangel 0

Evangel again could not sustain a drive and Shelby got the ball back on the Evangel 47 yard line.  A fumble by King on the initial play was recovered by Chase Cleveland.  Two plays later, King scampered 30 yards for the TD.  Jordan Ikner added the PAT,

Score Shelby 15 Evangel 0

Again Evangel’s offensive possession was cut short by another fumble, recovered by Chase Cleveland.  Shelby took possession on the Evangel 21.  Two plays later King carried the ball into the end zone on a 19 yard run.  Ikner’s PAT completed the play.  Score Shelby 29 Evangel 0

Evangel took the kickoff and put together a sustained drive for their first touchdown of the evening.  They added the two point conversion to make the score Shelby 29 Evangel 8

Evangel tried an on side kick, and successfully recovered the ball.  They sustained a second offensive drive until Nathan Herrington intercepted an Evangel pass in the end zone.  Shelby took the ball at the Shelby 20 yard line and scored in two plays.  Ikner’s PAT was blocked.  Score Shelby 35 Evangel 8

The half ended with Evangel on offensive.

The second half began with Shelby on offense.  Their scoring drive was good for seven plays and ended with a 23 yard pass from King to Horton for a touchdown.  Ikner added the PAT.  Score Shelby 42 Evangel 8

Evangel’s first possession of the second half was good for seven plays and ended with a punt.  Shelby took possession and immediately fumbled.  Evangel recovered the ball and went back on offensive.  However, their drive was short lived an Evangel fumble was recovered by Colton Wingard for Shelby.  Shelby could not convert the first down.  Ikner was called upon to attempt a field goal.  The kick was good for a 40 yard field goal.  Score Shelby 45 Evangel 8

Lowndes Academy 27

Shelby began their contest against Lowndes Academy flat and never recovered.  Lowndes took the opening kickoff and after 5 plays were forced to punt.  Shelby mounted their first drive from their own 20 yard line. When the drive stalled, a roughing the kicker penalty put the Raiders back in business.  When the drive stalled a second time, kicker Jordan Ikner was brought in to try a field goal.  However, the attempt was blocked returning the ball to Lowndes.

Lowndes took advantage of the miss to mount their first scoring drive.  They missed the extra point, however which made the score Shelby 0 Lowndes 6.  Following one first down Shelby was forced to punt again.  Lowndes was held and punted as well.  Again Shelby could not get a first down and punted to Lowndes.  Lowndes mounted their second scoring drive, tried a two point conversion following the score and extended their lead to 12-0.  The ball was swapped back and forth several times, and half time the score remained Shelby 0 Lowndes Academy 12.

Shelby took kickoff to start the second half.  They punted following seven plays.  Lowndes was also forced to punt on their first possession of the second half.  On the first play of the second series, a botched handoff resulted in a fumble which Lowndes recovered.  Lowndes took advantage of the fumble scoring their third TD of the game.  They were successful in their 2 point conversion attempt making the score 20-0.

On the ensuing kickoff a fumbled reception resulted in a Lowndes recovery.  However, Shelby’s defense stepped up and took possession of the ball on downs.  Three plays later, Shelby faked the punt for a first down.  However, an interception of a Cody Jones pass put an end to the Raider drive.  Again the defense held and Lowndes had to punt.  On the  first play following the punt, a botched exchange resulted in another fumble which was recovered by Aaron Buff.  In the long yardage situation, Jones had another pass picked off to give Lowndes excellent field position.  Lowndes scored their final touchdown of the day and converted the PAT to make the score 27-0.

Shelby completed the game on offense, but could not muster the necessary yardage to get to the end zone.  Shelby finished the night with 3 fumbles (1 lost) and 2 interceptions.   Final Score Shelby 0 Lowndes 27.

Shelby 7

Edgewood 28

 Shelby lost their first game of the season against a much more prepared Edgewood Academy team.  Edgewood took the opening kick-off and drove the length of the field for their initial touchdown.  Score Shelby 0 Edgewood 7. 

Shelby’s first possession began badly with an illegal procedure call on the first play.  Although they converted the first down, the drive stalled and Shelby punted.  Edgewood scored quickly on two plays.  Score Shelby 0 Edgewood 14.   The second quarter saw Edgewood score a third touchdown, while Shelby could not score on two possessions.  On a positive note, Shelby ended one Edgewood drive with an interception by Chad King, and held Edgewood on downs as the first half ended.  Halftime score Shelby 0 Edgewood 21. 

The second half began with more of the same.  Shelby stalled after receiving the kickoff.  Following the punt, Edgewood scored their final TD of the evening.  Score Shelby 0 Edgewood 28. 

On the ensuing kickoff, Shelby finally put together a scoring drive.  The drive was good for 75 yards on 5 plays ending with a 33 yard run by Brandon Horton.  Jordan Ikner added the point after.  Score Shelby 7 Edgewood 28.   

Edgewood’s next drive ended when Jason McDaniel stripped the ball from the Edgewood runner and Austin Shelton covered the loose ball.  However a 15 yard penalty stalled the drive and Shelby returned the ball on downs.   Again Shelby’s defense held, and Edgewood turned the ball over on downs with a fake punt.  Shelby mounted their last drive which looked very productive and included a 46 yard pass play from Cody Jones to Horton.  However, a 20+ yard penalty deep in Edgewood territory ended the drive as Shelby turned the ball over on downs once again.  Edgewood ran out the clock to end the game with a score of Shelby 7 Edgewood 28

The kickoff was reminiscent of the Shelby-Cornerstone kickoff, with Shelby on the receiving end of the TD.  Chad King took the opening kickoff 85 yards for Shelby’s first score.  The PAT by Jordan Ikner was good.  With only seconds off the clock, the score was Shelby 7 Lakeside 0.  Shelby never looked back.

Lakeside could not penetrate Shelby’s defense and punted to begin Shelby’s second drive from the Raider 14 yard line.  Seven plays and 86 yards later, Jason McDaniel scampered for 27 yards into the end zone for a second Raider TD.  Ikner added the PAT and the score became 14-0.  Lakeside punted after failing to score, and Shelby returned the favor.

Lakeside mounted a sustained drive that ended when the ball went over on downs at the Raider 15 yard line.  Three plays later, Shelby returned to ball to Lakeside with a fumble.  Shelby’s defense remained tough and got the ball back on downs, this time on the Raider 21 yard line.  Shelby took the ball on offense and had entered Chief territory and lost the ball on another fumble.  Shelby quickly took the offense again with an interception by Keaton Wood.  Shelby’s last threat of the first half came to an end with another Raider fumble.  Thankfully, half-time ended the pain!

Lakeside took the opening kickoff of the second half and again could not score.  Following their punt, Shelby got their act together offensively and mounted a 62 yard scoring drive in 10 plays culminated by a three yard dash by Brandon Horton.  Ikner added the PAT.  Score Shelby 21 Lakeside 0.

Following the kickoff, Lakeside again failed to convert the first down.  A bad snap over the punter’s head put the ball in the end zone where Daniel Michael covered it for a Raider TD.  Ikner again added the PAT.  Score Shelby 28 Lakeside 0.

Ikner’s kickoff went through the end zone and Lakeside took possession on their 20 yard line.  Lakeside could not make a first down and following a successful punt Shelby took the ball on the Lakeside 48 yard line.  Five plays later Chad King scored from 10 yards out.  Marek Verner’s PAT was blocked.  Score Shelby 34 Lakeside 0.

Lakeside got on the board when they returned the kickoff for a touchdown.  They missed the PAT making the score Shelby 34 Lakeside 6. 

Lakeside kicked off and Shelby began their next drive from the 42 yard line.   The drive stalled when a Cody Jones pass was intercepted by Lakeside.  However, two plays later McDaniel tackled the Lakeside ball carried in the end zone for a safety.  Score Shelby 36 Lakeside 6.  Horton returned the free kick following the safety 25 yards to set up Shelby’s final score.  On fourth down, Horton took the ball into the end zone from 37 yards out.  Verner added the PAT.  Score Shelby 43 Lakeside 6.  

Shelby’s subs saw action for the remainder of the ball game.  Shelby and Lakeside exchanged possessions several time with no additional score.  Final score Shelby 43 Lakeside 6.

Shelby began their second half of football on an offensive possession beginning on their own 30 yard line.  On the second play from scrimmage a pass from Cody Jones to Austin Shelton was picked off by Restoration.  The interception was returned deep into Raider territory and ultimately resulted in a Restoration TD.  A 2 pt conversion was good. Score Shelby 0, Restoration 8.

On the Raiders second possession, they drove the ball deep into Restoration territory.  Six plays and two fumbles later, Restoration took over the ball and began a drive of their own. An interception by Keaton Wood saved a second Restoration TD and gave the Raiders their third possession on their own 8 yd line.  Unfortunately, the third Shelby drive ended in an interception on a Jones to Horton pass. 

Shelby held Restoration on downs and began their fourth possession on their own 21 yard line.  Nine plays later, Cody Jones scampered three yards for the Raider TD.  The two point conversion was completed by Jason McDaniel to tie the game at 8-8.  Restoration was held until time ran out.  Final Score Shelby Academy 8 Restoration Academy 8
