Big Reds Beaten By Highlanders In Playoffs
HUNTINGTON - The Highlanders of Huntington used one big play after another to hand the Parkersburg Big Reds a 56-20 setback here Nov. 11 in the first round of the West Virginia Class AAA footblal playoffs.
The homestanding Highlanders, who beat PHS 27-17 in the regular season, outscored the Big Reds 36-6 in the second half to advance to the second round of the playfoffs, where they will travel to Martinsburg to meet the number one ranked, undefeated Bulldogs next weekend. The winners had three players scored two touchdowns each and rolled up 536 yards in total offense with three runners totaling 320 yards between them. Elijah King, Paden Christian and Toquan Hayes scored twice while Mark Shaver and Nick Tubbs also tallied for the Highlanders.
For Parkersburg, which ended its season with a 7-4 record, junior Adam Lindamood ran for two touchdowns while gaining 113 yards on 21 carries. Sophomore Chandler Hamilton added the other touchdown for PHS. Senior quarterback Alex Ash completed 13 of 27 passes for 133 yards and was intercepted twice. Ash threw just seven interceptions all year but four of them came at the hands of the Highlanders. Zayne Minnite and Jeremy Bell were the leading receivers as Minnite caught four passes for 55 yards while Bell caught three for 29 yards.
Huntington scored first on a 12 yard run by Christian but PHS answered with a 19 yard run by Lindamood with the first quarter ending in a 7-7 standoff. Parkersburg's touchdown drive covered 68 yards on six plays with Lindamood running on five of them.
The Big Reds went up 14-7 when Lindamood scored again early in the second quarter thanks to a 60 yard interception return by Bell to the host 10 yard line. From there Lindamood ran twice to reach the end zone.
But Huntington scored six unanswered touchdowns to take a 49-14 lead. A 56 yard pass and run play gave Huntington the lead for good with 3:11 left in the first half.
PHS got the ball to start the second half but an interception halted the first possession. Huntington then broke off three plays of 19, 19 and 22 yards to help produce the Highlanders' fourth touchdown and take a 28-14 lead. The Big Reds moved into Highlander territory and looked about to make it a 28-21 game when Ash found Santer deep over the middle near the goal line but the ball went through the hands of the senior receiver and the touchdown was lost. The next play, a fourth down situation, Ash threw incomplete and Huntington put together a 60-yard scoring drive that gave the home team all the momentum. The Highlanders had two one-play scoring drives early in the fourth quarter on plays covering 50 and 36 yards to ice the victory.
The Big Reds got on the board again with 3:02 left to play on Hamilton's two yard run while the final score of the night came when HHS starting quarterback Shaver sped 24 yards with just 19 seconds remaining.
