Friday Night Hype: Highlights, scores and more from Week 9 of Iowa high school football
BY HY-VEE. YOU’RE WATCHING FRIDAY NIGHT HYPE. YEAH. I LOVE IT. YEAH. FROM THE GOPRO. ZOOMING OUT, THAT WAS OUR PHOTOGRAPHER DYLAN KUHN OUT THERE. AND MAN, WHAT A NIGHT OUT THERE SHANNON EHRHARDT. OH MY GOSH. WE HAD RAIN. WE HAD TIGHT GAMES. WE HAD BLOWOUTS I MEAN PLAYOFFS. WE HAD PLAYOFFS. WE’RE TALKING PLAYOFFS. I KNOW SEASON ENDED FOR REGULAR SEASON FOR CLASS FIVE A, FOUR A AND THREE A, PLAYOFFS FOR EVERY OTHER CLASS. AND AS WE SPEAK, THEY’RE RECALCULATING THE RPI. THEY’RE GOING TO POST THAT SOMETIME AROUND 11:00 TO SEE WHO MADE THE PLAYOFFS IN CLASS FIVE A AND FOUR A AND THREE A. SO THIS IS EXCITING TIMES AND A LOT OF DRAMA. SO MUCH DRAMA, SO MUCH SO THAT WE HAVE TO START WITH OUR GAME OF THE WEEK, WHERE EVERY MEDIA OUTLET ACROSS THE STATE WAS THERE TO WATCH. DRUM ROLL, PLEASE. GILBERT NORTH POLK, GILBERT UP 14 THREE WITHOUT THEIR STARTING QUARTERBACK JAMES ARMSTRONG. SO IT’S SOPHOMORE CHASE BOOS STARTING, BUT AIDEN RASH DID NOT MAKE IT EASY PICKING IT OFF FOR THE TIGERS ENSUING DRIVE. AIDEN’S BROTHER ETHAN RASH WITH THE QB KEEPER. LOOK AT THAT LITTLE PLAY ACTION. TIGERS LEAD 21 TO 3. THE COMETS WERE TRYING TO SCORE RIGHT BEFORE HALFTIME, KNOCKING ON THE DOOR. BOO ROLLS OUT, BUT IT IS PICKED OFF AND IT IS SPOOKY. SEASON. SCOTT GABE FIERCE WHAT A NAME. TIGERS LEAD 21 THREE GOING INTO THE SECOND HALF. THIRD QUARTER GILBERT PUSHING THE PILE HERE. AND GUESS HOW MANY YARDS THEY WENT SCOTT GUESS HOW MANY? NOT FIVE NOT 613 YARDS WITH ETHAN RASH. THEY DON’T SKIP LEG DAY SHANNON NO, I WAS ABOUT TO SAY SERIOUSLY. AND IF YOU’RE DOING THAT MUCH HARD WORK EARLY IN THE DRIVE, I MEAN YOU GOT TO GIVE IT TO RASH ON THE GOAL LINE. COME ON. HE LEADS THE TEAM IN RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS AND ADDS ANOTHER ONE. IT’S 28 THREE. TIGERS CHASE BOONE TRYING TO GET HIS TEAM BACK INTO IT GOES DEEP. BUT HE MUST BE SEEING GHOSTS PICKED OFF ONCE AGAIN. IAN ELDRIDGE THIS TIME COMING UP BIG ON SENIOR NIGHT. THE TIGERS SECONDARY HAD FOUR INTERCEPTIONS TONIGHT. THE TIGERS DIDN’T EVEN MAKE IT A GAME, ROLLING 49 TO 18 AND FINISH AN UNDEFEATED REGULAR SEASON AS DISTRICT CHAMPS. WE GET TO PLAY AT HOME IN FRONT OF ALL OF OUR FANS, AND WE WERE PLAYING FOR TWO HOME GAMES, AND I MEAN, IT’S JUST AN AMAZING FEELING TO BE ABLE TO PERFORM AFTER JUST HOURS IN THE DARK AND SO MUCH HARD WORK WITH MY TEAMMATES, AND I JUST LOVE IT. IT’S AN AMAZING FEELING. WHAT A GREAT SCENE OUT THERE. NOW OVER IN INDIANOLA, NOT ONLY WERE THE INDIANS TRYING TO WIN AND MAKE THE PLAYOFFS, BUT IT WAS THE FINAL HOME GAME FOR THE STUDENT MANAGERS AS WELL AS ALL THE SENIORS HERE. WE’VE GOT TWINS, ABBY AND KATIE CLUTIER. THEY STARTED BEING STUDENT MANAGERS IN FIFTH GRADE FOR THEIR DAD, ERIC, AND HERE THEY ARE NOW, SENIORS IN HIGH SCHOOL. FINALLY, I KNOW FINAL NIGHT TO TO PITCH IN AND DO WHATEVER NEEDED TO BE DONE FOR HEAD COACH AND DAD ERIC KLUVER. THEY’RE HOSTING URBANDALE, FIRST QUARTER, INDIANOLA BO BLAKE TO THE AIR. IN TRAFFIC, IT’S BATTED UP AND JACOB JUUL SAYS, LOOK WHAT I FOUND. NICE LITTLE RUN BACK FOR URBANDALE LINEBACKER. STILL NO SCORE IN THE SECOND SPIDER-MAN. YEAH, HE’S IN THE HOUSE. ASHER BRITT GOING TO DROP BACK AND THEN DIAL HIS OWN NUMBER. THIS TURNS OUT TO BE A NICE GAIN DOWN TO ABOUT THE TEN YARD LINE. HE’S LOOKING LIKE JAYDEN DANIELS WITH A THE LSU COLORS THERE. DRAVEN WESCOTT PUNCHES IT IN AFTER THAT TO MAKE IT SEVEN. NOTHING INDIANOLA WINS 14 SEVEN. THEY’RE HEADED TO THE PLAYOFFS. URBANDALE ENDS THE YEAR AT FOUR AND FIVE. SHANNON CENTENNIAL ENTERED THE NIGHT AS THE LAST TEAM LOOKING IN, LOOKING TO LOCK UP THEIR SPOT WITH A WIN OVER SIOUX CITY NORTH. AND IT WAS TOUCHDOWNS ON TOUCHDOWNS FOR THE JAGS. JJ MORGAN SCOTT IS SO ELUSIVE THAT I COULDN’T EVEN FIND HIM. I HAD NO IDEA WHERE HE IS. I KNEW HE HAD THE BALL SOMEWHERE. THERE HE IS STREAKING DOWN THE SIDELINE INTO THE BIG BOX. CENTENNIAL WINS. NO PROBLEMO. 49 TO 7 FIRST EVER MEETING BETWEEN KENNEDY AND DCG EARLY IN THE SECOND QUARTER. DCG DOWN SEVEN. NOTHING. THE MUSTANGS WOULD START TO GET IT GOING ON THE GROUND LATE IN THE HALF. OZZIE GRAHAM CAPS OFF THE DRIVE WITH A TOUCHDOWN RUN. TIES IT AT SEVEN DCG DEFENSE WAS REALLY GOOD THE REST OF THE WAY. CALEB CARLETON WITH AN INTERCEPTION AND DCG GONNA WIN 14 TO 7. YOU KNOW WHO’S BACK FROM THE DEAD. WAUKEE UPSETTING NUMBER ONE WAUKEE. NORTHWEST SHOT THEM UP TO 17 IN THE RPI. SO IF THEY COULD BEAT NUMBER 12 WATERLOO WEST SIDE TONIGHT IT WOULD BE NO PROBLEM. BECKETT BAKER MAKING IT SO A 74 YARD TOUCHDOWN RUN. IT’S 14 SEVEN WAUKEE SECOND QUARTER SAME SCORE THIS TIME. JAY WHITE. ESCAPES BLOWING BY THE D FOR A SCORE. IT’S 21 SEVEN. WAUKEE AND THE WARRIORS END UP WINNING 49 TO 21. THEY ARE EXPECTED TO JUMP AHEAD OF WATERLOO WEST AND MAKE THE PLAYOFFS. SCOTT CLASS THREE, A DES MOINES CHRISTIAN COMING IN SAFELY INTO THE FIELD. THEY ARE RANKED EIGHTH. WINTERSET RANKED 13TH. YOU DON’T WANT TO LOSE THIS GAME IF YOU’RE WINTERSET AND THEN HAVE TO SWEAT IT OUT. NO ONE CHRISTIAN THOUGH. LEADING 14 ZERO BEFORE WINTERSET FINALLY SCORES. BEN PORTER CUTS IT TO 14 SIX. HERE COMES DES MOINES CHRISTIAN DAVIS TOKHEIM GETS DOWN TO THE FOUR, BUT THEN WINTERSET WOULD GET THE TURNOVER AFTER THAT TO HOLD STRONG AND WINTERSET WINS. THEY HAD TO GET IT AND THEY DID 3120 THEY ARE IN. AND YOU BETTER STICK AROUND BECAUSE WE’VE GOT PLAYOFF FOOTBALL COMING UP NEXT ON FRIDAY NIGHT. HYPE. WE’RE SO DELHI. AND EVEN THOUGH IT’S RAINING, IT’S FRIDAY NIGHT. HI. LET’S GO JACKS. HALLOWEEN FANS TOTALLY STUCK IT OUT. YEAH, IT’S FUNNY BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS HALLOWEEN COSTUMES COMING UP, BUT NO, NO, IT’S JUST THE WHOLE THEME OF CHRISTMAS AND JOLLY. YEAH, THEY’RE LIKE, NO HALLOWEEN AT ALL. WE WANT TO BE SANTAS. HEY, WE WANT TO BE IN THE PLAYOFFS NOW. AND THAT’S WHERE WE FIND OURSELVES FOR CLASS TWO A AND BELOW VAN METER AT HOME, TAKING ON SOUTH TAMA COUNTY, VAN METER IS HENRY LANSBURY, 500, AND WATSON CATCHES IT SEVEN ZERO. AND I SWEAR THIS WAS AN INSTANT REPLAY. BUT IT’S NOT. THIS IS ACTUALLY A DIFFERENT PLAY THAT LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME. HENRY LOUNSBURY. THIS TIME IT’S LEXTON BLEVINS CATCHING THE BOMB. 14 NOTHING. NOW VAN METER IS GOING TO WIN THIS GAME, BUT KODY DEEMER IS MY REAL HERO. THE FRESHMAN LINEMAN. LOOK IT GOES RIGHT TO HIM AND HE SCORES THE PICK SIX. THAT’S GREAT 45 SIX. VAN METER’S GOT THEIR MOJO GOING IN ROUND TWO. YEAH THAT’S A GIFT. YOU CAN’T RETURN TWO WAY PLAYOFFS. ANAMOSA AT ROLAND-STORY. HERE COME THE NORSE HUDSON SCRANTON WITH THE CARRY FOR ANAMOSA. HERE. SPIN MOVE. BUT IT POPS OUT. THAT WAS KODY LONG WITH A BIG HIT FORCING THE FUMBLE. VERY NEXT PLAY RYLIE SHAW DROPS BACK. UNLEASHING TO THE WRONG COLOR. LUKE THORSON GETS UNDER IT, PICKS IT OFF. AND YOU KNOW WHAT ROLAND-STORY WHEN YOU GOT GOOD DEFENSE, WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED? THEY WIN IT 2814 MAYBE A COUPLE TOUCHDOWNS. BUT YOU KNOW, STATUE OF LIBERTY IN THE HOUSE WON A PLAYOFF. SOUTH CENTRAL CALHOUN AT UNDERWOOD SOUTH CENTRAL CALHOUN IN THE WHITE, UNDERWOOD IN THE BLUE AND THE BLUE GUY SCORED A LOT. GARRETT LEWIS TO HUDSON. ROSS EIGHT. ZIP A LOT OF SCORING BY UNDERWOOD. SOUTH CENTRAL CALHOUN GREAT SEASON, BUT IT DOES END TONIGHT. 54 TO 8 CLASS A PLAYOFFS MADRID HOSTING NORTH BUTLER. IT WAS RAINING PRETTY HARD SCOTT UP THERE. THAT’S WHY I SENT YOU THERE. DIDN’T WANT TO GO HAVING FUN. YOU KNOW WHAT TARYN LAWRENSON HE HAD A BLAST. LOOK AT THAT. DOESN’T EVEN GIVE QB ONE A CHANCE WITH THE SACK. MADRID LED SEVEN ZERO. LOGAN VELKY SERVES TO WILL ATKINSON, WHO’S SEATED AT THE TABLE FOR SIX. IT’S 14 ZERO TIGERS. MADRID FORCES A PUNT. VELKY WITH THE BALL IN HIS HANDS, AGAIN FINDS ALL SIX SEVEN, 205 POUNDS OF EMERSON BRIDGEWATER IN THE CORNER OF THE END ZONE. THAT GUY WAS HUGE. STOOD NEXT TO HIM. MASSIVE. MADRID RECOVERS A FUMBLE ON THE ENSUING KICKOFF, SO THE TIGERS GET THE BALL BACK. VELKY, A QB KEEPER ON THE RPO, BREAKING THE PLANE AS HE’S TACKLED. IT WAS CALLED GOOD. MADRID GOES HOME HAPPY, WINNING 48 TO 8. ANOTHER CLASS A PLAYOFF GAME FOR VIEWING ENJOYMENT, MOUNT AIR TAKES ON THE SAINT ALBERT FALCONS MOUNT AIR IN WHITE JACKSON RUGGLES TO DYSON THOMPSON BREAKING TACKLES, RUN THOMPSON, AN 80 YARD SCORE. MOUNT AIR GOES UP 2114. FORREST GUMP, SAINT ALBIA RUN. CARL YOUR TO HIS TIGHT END COLE SPENCER POPPED AT THE GOAL LINE, BUT HE’S IN THIS TURNED INTO A SHOOTOUT AND MOUNT AIR SEES IT IS NOT DONE YET. 5547 THEY ARE MOVING ON TO THE NEXT ROUND. SHANNON MANN WAS SO EXCITING. I WONDER WHO OUR FAN OF THE WEEK IS. I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. I KNOW, AND AS WE GO TO BREAK, THE BAND WAS DECKED OUT READY TO TRICK OR TREAT AT INDIANOLA. IT’S FRIDAY NIGHT HIGH. LET’S GO TIGERS! THAT’S ALL. THAT’S ALL THAT KID WANTED TO SAY. THAT’S ALL THE KID WANTED TO SAY. HE DIDN’T EVEN TELL ME HIS NAME. HE WAS SIPPING HIS HOT CHOCOLATE. DIDN’T REALLY WANT TO BE ON TV. BARELY SAID, LET’S GO, TIGERS. HE WAS OUT OF THERE FAST. YEAH, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? HE WAS NOT OUR FAN OF THE NIGHT BECAUSE WE’RE GOING TO GIVE IT TO THESE KIDS. FAN OF THE NIGHT TIME. LET’S GO BACK TO ROLAND-STORY MASON ABELS AND TYLER EARN A GOAL. YOU KNOW, SOME NIGHTS THEY’RE AT HOME DOING HOMEWORK, BUT, NO, THEY’VE GOT THEIR DOLLAR BILLS FOR THE CONCESSION STAND. THEY’VE GOT THEIR TEAM DOING GREAT. HOW MANY POP ROCKS OR THEY’RE GETTING ON TV? I DON’T EVEN KNOW. AIRHEAD EXTREMES DID THEY HAVE BE
