Game Summary/Box Score
April 29, 2006 Bear River Valley Rockets at Snake River Sabercats @ New
Plymouth High
BEAR RIVER VALLEY 21 SNAKE RIVER 7
(FORFEIT FINISH BY SNAKE R.)
NEW PLYMOUTH – The Bear River Valley Rockets
continued to roll, racking up 21 first quarter points behind 4 big runs by Mike
Messinger, who was on his way to crushing RMFL rushing records with 101 yards
and two touchdowns in the first quarter before lightening delayed the
completion of the game.
Rockets quarterback, Mike
Jenkins also found fullback, Nate Jackson who turned
on the after-burners and broke tackles on his way to a 62-yard touchdown score
to complete the scoring for the high-octane Rockets. The Rockets have the top-ranked offense in
the RMFL’s AA division.
During an extended
lightening delay, some Snake River players quit the game, dressed and left the
field.
When officials determined
that it was safe to resume the game, Snake River team management elected to not
continue the game and thereby forfeited the remainder of the game to the
Rockets.
According to Commissioner
Neumeier, “it is an absolute shame that some people did not appreciate the
amount of time and money the visiting team had to invest to make the trip to
New Plymouth to play a football game. By
reports from the game officials, there was absolutely no good reason not to
finish that game.”
Neumeier said that the Rockets individual stats would be added to their totals, however, the Sabercats stats for the game would not. He also said that the team stats would not be calculated into the per game average for this game. “Both the offense and defensive stats would be under-stated considerably for this game. So these teams will just end up counting 7 games toward their seasonal rankings.”
