This past Friday the Jr. High Oklahoma Patriots were defeated for only the second time this season by the Springfield Chargers with a final score of 20-12.
The game didn’t start out so great for the Patriots but it did for the Chargers as #36 hauled in a long pass to set up the first touchdown by #49, making the score 6-0 in favor of the Chargers. The Patriots offense took over on the ensuing kickoff but couldn’t do much and had to punt. Shortly after, #36 of the Chargers caught another ball for the second TD making the score 12-0.
The Patriots next offense drive started but then Bryce Daniels threw an interception which was returned for a touchdown. Luckily, for the Patriots, the TD was brought back by a block in the back penalty. Unfortunately, #49 ran the ball in for his second TD and the PAT was good making the score 20-0. Our offense took over again and #82 Matthew Lamberth caught a nice pass for the Patriots and it looked as if we might score before the half. The Charger defense denied us when they snagged a pass for another INT. This left many Patriots fans in shock as at halftime their team was down 20-0.
The third quarter started and ended quickly as each team had a possession and each team turned it over on downs. In the beginning of the 4th quarter the Patriots drove the ball down to the goaline and QB Bryce Daniel ran the ball to give the Patriots their first TD. This made the score 20-6. On the ensuing kickoff the Chargers fumbled the ball but they recovered. Although, that wasn’t going to stop a stingy Patriots defense from making a huge stop on 4th down to regain possession of the ball. The Patriots were in the zone on this drive! Daniels stepped back to pass and Lamberth makes a one-handed grab to earn a first down for the Patriots. Daniels then passed to #52 Regan Hurley who made another nice catch for the Patriots. Daniels then went to Hurley again and this time it was for a TD to cut the Charger lead to 8.
The Patriots then tried an onside kick, but failed to recover. It was up to the Patriots defense to get a stop here. They did a nice job holding them and it was now 4th down. The Chargers handed the ball off and it was close……… but it was just short of the first down marker and the Patriots now had a chance to tie the game!
When the Patriots took over #44 Cameron Branch took the handoff on the reverse and picked up a key first down for the Patriots. On the next play the Patriots tried a pass and it was…. intercepted by #7 of the Chargers! This put the game out of reach and leaves us with our final score of 20-12 as the Patriots fall to 6-2 on the season.
This was by far the best Patriots game I’ve watched all season, and it would heve been even better if they would have won. My player of the game is the entire Patriots team as I feel it wouldn’t be fair to name just one player. The whole team was just outstanding, the defense made key stops, and the offense took advantage of those stops, it was a great example of team football.
Join us next week as we travel all the way to Dallas for our last game of the season to take on the Dallas HSAA Angels to try end the season with a record of 7-2. See Ya there!

This past Thursday, the Oklahoma Jr. High Patriots beat the Mt. St. Mary’s Rockets 36-16 to push their record to 6-1. The Patriots started the game on offense and #44 Cameron Branch picked up a first down for the Patriots. Then, #10 Johnson Miller broke through the defense for the first Patriots TD, which with the PAT made the score 8-0 in favor of the Patriots. When the Rocket’s offense took over Miller made another great play when he intercepted the ball. Miller then caught a pass to pick up another Patriots first down. #32 Stephen Dellinger then picked up a first down and then…… #87 of the Rockets intercepted the pass, the Rockets took over but failed to score.
Next, QB Bryce Daniels ran the ball in for the Patriots second TD of the game, and the PAT made the score 16-0. The Rockets took over but again failed to score. On the ensuing Patriots possession, Branch made a huge run that set up a Patriot touchdown, the 2 points were good and the score was 24-0. The Rockets came out on offense but fumbled and the Patriots recovered. The fumble set up a Dellinger TD which made the score 30-0, which would be the score at the half.
To start the second half #41 got a first down for the Rockets, which was followed by a touchdown, also by #41, the PAT made the score 30-8. On the kickoff Branch returned the ball a lengthy distance, however the Patriots fumbled and the Rockets recovered. Rockets player #18 then rumbled into the end zone for the Rockets and with the PAT the score was 30-16. When the Patriots offense took over Dellinger contributed with a first down that set up a Patriots TD which leaves us with our final score of 36-16. Another Patriots win!
My player of the game goes to Johnson Miller who scored the Patriots first TD of the game and made a great interception. He fought hard and deserves this recognition. This wraps up the summary of a great game. Join us next week as the Patriots take on the Springfield Chargers to try to push their recored to 7-1. See ya there!

This past Friday, the Oklahoma Jr. High Patriots suffered their first loss of the season as they fell 8-6 at the hands of the Tulsa NOAH Jaguars on a cold October night. This brings their record to 5-1, ending the Patriots bid for an undefeated season.
At the beginning of the game, #44 Cameron Branch took the kickoff out to the 45 yard line for the Patriots, but that possession ended abruptly with a punt. When the Jaguars took over #20 made a huge play on third down that resulted in a first down. Then, as #16 steps back to make a pass for the Jaguars, #94 Payton Capers made a great play as he deflected a pass and nearly intercepted it. Next, when the Patriots got the ball back, they handed it off to #32 Stephen Dellinger who got the Patriots a first down. The first quarter then ended with a score of 0-0.
Quarterback #21 Bryce Daniels ran for another first down for the Patriots, and Dellinger picked up another one, however the Patriots failed to score on this drive. The Jaguars got the ball back, but turned it over on downs. This took us to halftime where the score remained 0-0.
To start the third quarter, the Jaguars drove the down to the goal line, fumbled, and the Patriots took over, but were soon forced to punt. On their ensuing possession, the Patriots fumbled giving the Jaguars the ball. Then, as #16 stepped back to pass he lets go and… its intercepted by #30 Gabe Tipton of the Patriots! The crowd roared with excitement as the Patriots had a chance to score here in the fourth quarter! Dellinger got the Patriots just what they needed, a first down. Then Daniels takes the snap, steps back to pass, and releases…. its a touchdown by Branch, and the Patriots take a 6-0 lead!
However, the Jaguars still had a chance to tie or even possibly win the game. Jaguars #16 takes the snap, steps back, heaves the ball up in the air, and somehow, someway its pulled down by a Jaguar receiver for a game tying TD! The Patriots defense is now focused on one thing, stopping the Jaguars from getting the PAT. It was difficult to see whether or not the Jaguars got the conversion, but the refs ruled it good, and the Jaguars took an 8-6 lead.
The Patriots now had one last opportunity to win the game. Daniels stepped back, threw the ball which, unfortunately, was intercepted by #16 (the same Jaguar that threw their TD) putting the game away. Leaving us with our final score 8-6, a Patriots loss.
My player of the game goes to Gabe Tipton who made a key interception to set up the Patriots TD that gave them the lead. This was a hard fought game and I was sorry to see it end. Be there Thursday Oct. 15th, as the Patriots take on Mt. St. Mary’s to try to get back on a winning streak. See ya there!
