Jr. All-American Football
The Orange Chiefs-West scored on a quarterback sneak late in the
second half to pull out an 8-6 victory over the Huntington Beach Dolphins
in a Jr. All-American Football Junior Pee Wee Division postseason game
Saturday.
The Dolphins took the opening kickoff and scored on Willie Fiscus III’s
16-yard touchdown run during a drive that was kept alive by quarterback
Brian Shrock’s key fourth-and-seven pass to Shane Keating.
Shrock ended the season with a bang by throwing for 267 yards on 15
completions.
Fiscus and Victor Ordonez led the Dolphin defense with 14 tackles apiece,
and Shrock returned a second half fumble 18 yards.
Huntington Beach was clinging to a 6-2 lead when Orange drove to the
Dolphin five-yard line, but the Dolphin defense held in three downs but
on fourth-and-goal from inside the one, the Chiefs were able to get into
the end zone when the Orange quarterback scored on what Huntington Beach
Coach Dave Small said was a controversial play.
“The quarterback looked like he was down before the ball broke the
plane,” he said. “He also was pushed from behind by two running backs,
and I thought that was illegal. Even with the push, I think we still
stopped him.
“I was disappointed with the no-call, but that doesn’t change the fact
that our kids played with all of their heat. It was truly great and
inspired football.”
