Game Notes 2008 Season
Varsity vs New Bedford 10/3: The return of Jake Williams (159 total yards and 2 TD's) after being sideline for two weeks with a leg injury provided B-R a spark as the Trojans won 28 - 6. The one - two punch of Williams and Pat Omar (9 carries for 53 yards and 1 TD) was too much for the Whalers to handle. Interceptions by Ken Larkin, Bob Cormier and Sean Reagan ended any New Bedford hope to get back into the game. New Bedford' s only score came in the 2nd quarter of a muffed punt which put the ball on the B-R 7 yardline. B-R's final score came on a nice fake hand off by QB Kevin Bumpus to Pat Omar which drew the Whalers defense to the right that left Sean Reagan alone in the back of the end zone on the left to catch the TD pass from Bumpus. JV: The BR JV football team won 19-0 vs. the New Bedford Whalers on Saturday Oct. 4th. Scoring for the Trojans were: Isaiah Johnson on a 5 yard run, Cam MacDonald found JP Palmer on a nice 25 yard touchdown pass to close out the half. In the second half, Mike Chicoine rumbled in from 10 yards out to make the final score 19-0. The Defense played very well, Marc Macdonald recovered a fumble at the New Bedford 45 yardline, which help set up a touchdown. Mike Devin had two huge tackles on third and fourth down on the opening series of the game. Also, playing well on D were Brett Stewart, Andrew Kelley, Billy Buckley, and Adam Travaglione. The next JV game is Saturday at home vs. Attleboro.
Varsity vs Marshfield 9/28: The Trojans missed some opportunities to come up with a win by committing critical turnovers giving the ball back to Marshfield as they were knocking on the door. Poor field conditions and heavy rain in the second half didn't help the situation. Isaiah Johnson scored B-R only TD with a 44 yard run down the right side in the second quarter. The B-R defense held Marshfield to two second half first downs but the offense couldn't sustain a drive. QB Kevin Bumpus was sacked a few times in the game to make matters worse. Freshmen: The B-R freshman football team faced their toughest test of the season to date against the previously undefeated Marshfield Rams Monday afternoon, and came away with a hard earned 14-6 victory. The game was a defensive battle in the first quarter, Matt Livingston foiled a Marshfield drive with a diving interception. In the second quarter the Trojans, took the lead as Eric Wabrek took a sweep and picked up some nice blocking on the play to hurdled his way into the endzone for a touchdown as the Trojans took a 6-0 lead. The Trojans held the Rams on a goal line stand at the end of the half to preserve the 6-0 lead going into half-time as Brad DeLuilis made a nice play breaking up a deep pass. In the second half, the Rams took the opening drive and scored to tie the game 6-6, but the Trojans stepped up as Nick Goodhue and Seamus Sullivan made key catches on the ensuing drive. The Trojans regained in the lead fourth quarter when DeLuilis scored on a quarterback sneak and the Trojans also made the two point conversion on a pass to Wabrek to take a 14-6 lead. The B-R defense then held the Rams out of the endzone as DeLuilis, Zac Lyons, Shaquille Wiggins and Steve Wentworth came up with big defensive stops. Defensive Lineman Brian Pope and Eric DeMoura also made key plays down the stretch. The Trojans then used to power running of Nick Schlatz to grind out the clock for a big 14-6 win. The Trojans will next host New Bedford Saturday at home.
Varsity vs Durfee 9/19: The Trojans dominated on both sides of the ball and there was no question as to the eventual outcome of the game. Starting with the opening possesion when Neil Harrington ran the kick off back to the 50 the Trojans marched down the field to put 6 points on the board. The B-R defense immediately impacted the game when on Durfee's third play of the game Ken Larkin intercepted a pass. Durfee's offense could get nothing going as the Hilltoppers QB was intercepted twice (Larkin and John Palmer) sacked twice (Bob Cormier and Evan McCarrick) and ball carriers tackled 12 times behind the line of scrimmage. The offense was balanced with Isaiah Johnson gaining 104 yards on 16 carries, 1 TD, Pat Omar 42 yards on 4 carries and 1 TD, and Kevin Bumpus passing for 68 yards (6 for 8) and 2 TD's to John Dunmore. Durfee scored its lone TD with 1:34 left on the clock with the scoring coming against the second unit defense. JV: The BR JV football team won 26-6 vs. the Durfee Hilltoppers. QB Cam Macdonald hooked up with Tyler Whealan to make the score 6-0. In the second quarter, the Trojans went up 12-0 on a 1 yard run by Cody Wood. In the last three minutes before the half, Billy Zolga hooked up with JP Palmer to make the score 18-0 at halftime. Early on in the 4th quarter OLB Sean McCall picked off Screen pass and returned it 13 yards for a touchdown. Tyler Whealans two point catch made the final score 26-6. Mike Devin, Adam Travaglione (fumble recovery, sack and a nice special teams tackle), Tyler Martin, Mark MacDonald and Neil Harrington (INT) all played well on defense. On offense, Sophomore Bill Vey made his first JV start at RT and played very well. The Trojans will take on a tough Marshfield team on Saturday, September 27 at noon at BR. Freshmen: The B-R freshman team used a big second half against the Durfee Hilltoppers to pick up their third win of the season. Steve Wentworth, Nick Schlatz (over 100 yards rushing), Brad DeLuilis, Brandan Morin and Eric Wabrek scored for the Trojans, as B-R rushed for over 250 yards for the game. Defensively, B-R got solid efforts from Zac Lyons ( fumble recovery) Eric DeMoura (2 sacks), and steady play from Chris Cream and Seamus Sullivan in the victory. The freshman team will next face Marshfield this Saturday at home.
Varsity vs Duxbury 9/12: A good turnout of fans greeted the Trojans as they took to the field in a steady rain to take on the Dragons from Duxbury. A determined Duxbury defense made the night seem colder and the game longer as they were able to keep the Trojans out of the end zone all night. To make matters worst B-R lineman Mike Duran had to leave the game (broken wrist) in the first half and running back Jake Wiliams left the game after the first possession of the 2nd half with a knee injury. The B-R and Duxbury teams played to a first half 0 - 0 tie with the Trojans defense keeping in check the Dragons star running back (Shane Dibonato 6'2". 225-pound) 22 first half yards. However he did his damage in the second half piling up 142 yards which included a 84 yard TD run in the fourth quarter with 2:58 left in the game to make it 15 - 0. Duxbury's first score was on their first possession of the 3rd quarter on a QB sneak from the one after a short drive. A botched PAT play ended up as a successful two point conversion. The Trojans couldn't sustain a drive throughout the game and make it into the end zone. JV: The BR JV football team improved to 2-0 on Monday September 15. The team defeated the Duxbury Dragons 22-6. Scoring for the Trojans were Tailback Cody Wood, WR Neil Harrington and HB JP Palmer. Cam MacDonald and Billy Zolga each threw a touchdown pass. The Offensive line (Devin, Ingargiola, Martin, Bevilacqua, Allen) played very well. On defense Billy Buckely, Mike Devin, Adam Travaglione, Andrew Kelly(force fumble), Sean Odonnell, Tyler Whealan, Billy Zolga (INT) all played well. The next JV game is Monday September 22 vs the Durfee Hilltoppers. Freshmen: The Trojans continued their winning ways with a non-league win over the very game Duxbury Dragons 14-0. Leading the way for the Trojans was elusive quarterback Brad DeLulis, who scrambled for close to 100 yards rushing and added several key completions for B-R. Eric Wabrek (who also had one interception) scored on a 38 yard run on a 4th and 25 play to give the Trojans a 6-0 lead. Nick Schlatz added the two point conversion and B-R took an 8-0 lead early in the second quarter. Defensively the Trojans got several stellar performances as Shaquille Wiggins continued his high level of play this season with 2 more sacks and several key tackles from his linebacker position and Eric DeMoura, Brian Pope, Nick Goodhue and Trevor Chute had strong games on the defensive line. Chris Cream had another good game with 5 tackles, as the B-R defense limited Duxbury to one offensive play over 10 yards the entire game. In the second half, B-R shut down Duxbury after a big kickoff return and the Trojans offense took the ball and marched 75 yards over 9 minutes as Schlatz finished the drive with a 25 yard touchdown run. Duxbury had one last chance on 4th and 7 but defensive end Zac Lyons snuffed out a halfback screen for a 3 yard loss and the Trojans ran out the clock for the 14-0 win. B-R will face Durfee next on the road Friday Sept 19th at 330.
Varsity at Chelmsford 9/5: It was a game ofmissed oportunities for the Traojans as they dropped their season opener 14 to 6 at Chelmsford. Instead of leading 14 - 0 at the end of the first quarter a fumble into the end zone (first possesion) and another fumble on the second possesion as the Trojans were driving towards the goal line ended what looked like two sure touchdowns. B-R did get the first score of the game in the second quarter when QB Kevin Bumpus hit running back Jake Williams (118 yards on 15 carries) in the flat for a 17-yard TD pass. The PAT was not good. Chelmsford answered on it's next possesiont driving down the field to score and making their PAT. With time in the first half running out and B-R moving the ball Chelmsford intercepted a tipped pass on their 8-yard line and ran it back of a TD with 10 seconds left on the clock. The score stayed at 14 - 6 in the second half as both defensives did the their job with Chelmsford ensuring the victory with another interception near their end zone with less then 2 minutes on the clock. Bumpus finished the game going 9 for 20 and 172 yards in the air. Senior Ken Larkin made two interceptions in the game. JV: The BR JV football team went down 6-0 to start the game, but battle back to take a 13-6 halftime lead and win the game 26-12.
