New Brunswick Championship
Calais-St. Stephen Silverados 44 Fredericton Junior Black Kats 6
In a
game that was moved to Rocky Stone Field in Moncton due to horrendous
field conditions at FHS, the Junior Black Kats got their only points on
a 75 yard kickoff return by Devin Kearney. Fredericton trailed 20-6 at
the half and was unable to move the ball on offence in a steady, cold
rain against a big and strong Silverados team.
Zach Newman had three
touchdowns for the Silverados who employed an offence that can be best
described as a version of the "Winged T". The multiple fakes
used in this system had the Kats defence confused all afternoon. Blake
Ford, Courtney Henry and Jordan Leeman had one major apiece for the
winners who now advance to the Maritime Championship against the Nova
Scotia champion next Sunday at Rocky Stone.

Devin Kearney (33) of the
Fredericton Junior Black Kats runs the ball up field against the
Oromocto Junior Blues' defence during Sunday's Capital Area Minor
Football Association bantam final at FHS Field. Kearney scored a pair
of first quarter touchdowns as the Kats prevailed 24-15.
Fredericton Junior Black Kats are within a win of
winning the provincial bantam (ages 14-15) football championship.
Junior Kats earned the right to host the Moncton-Fundy semifinal winner
in Sunday's provincial bantam final at Fredericton High School field -
game time 1 o'clock - after beating Oromocto Junior Blues 24-15 Sunday
to clinch the Capital Area Minor Football Association bantam title.
The high school team at Fredericton High School is also in position to
win a provincial title for the second straight year as it plays the
Bernice MacNaughton Highlanders of Moncton in the provincial final
Saturday at Rocky Stone Field in Moncton. Kats defeated Tantramar High
Titans 3-0 in semifinal action Saturday at FHS Field.
In the bantam matchup, the Junior Black Kats jumped out to a 16-0 lead
in the first quarter and that would prove enough to knock off the Blues,
who had defeated Northside Junior Lions 27-6 in the Capital Area
semifinal the previous weekend.
Devin Kearney had two long touchdown runs in that opening quarter and
combined with the converts by Brett Lockhard, the Kats were on their
way.
Blues narrowed the gap to 16-7 at the half when Jesse Rae took it in
from five yards out for the major score and Nathan Heather ran in the
convert.
After a scoreless third quarter, Kats' quarterback Jeff Madsen found
Patrick Downe in the flat and he raced 70 yards for the insurance major.
With the Lockhard convert, the Kats were up 24-7.
Blues scored the game's final touchdown with less than a minute to go
when Mitch Dingley ran it in from five yards out. Setting up the score
was a Rae to Josh Blanchard pass and run play to the five. Dingley also
added the convert.
The Junior Lions also played an exhibition game Sunday, losing 12-0 to
the Penquis Valley Wolfpack from Maine on touchdowns by Richard Thurlen
and Ryan Lyford.
In the provincial peewee semifinal played Sunday, the Oromocto Tigers
were on the short end of a 27-25 score against the Calais-St. Stephen
Silverados.
Tigers trailed 21-13 at the half and couldn't make up the deficit.
