Game Summary/Box Score
May 12, 2007 Great Falls Gladiators at Glacier Knights @ Columbia Falls
High School
GREAT FALLS 6 GLACIER 0
COLUMBIA FALLS – In only the second time he
touched the football all season, Mike Pease powered through Glacier Knight
defenders en route to a 36-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter
to lead the Great Falls Gladiators to a difficult 6-0 victory over an improving
Knight team in Columbia Falls, Montana.
The passing challenged
Gladiator offense would roll up 200 net rushing yards as 5 different runners
had at least 20 yards rushing.
Ex-Helena Titan star, Keith Deboo, lead the rushing parade with 64 yards
on 11 carries as Great Falls quarterback, Brad Thurber, although was only able
to complete 2 passes for 38 yards, did contribe 44 yards on 7 runs.
Defenses, however, ruled
the day with a combined total of only 13 first downs in the game, almost half
of which coming off of penalties. The
Knight passing attack was even more stymied with 5 of their 9 completions going
for negative yards.
Game hero, Pease, along
with Mike Rhode also topped the defense with 4 tackles each. Rhode’s total
included one of several quarterback sacks against the Knights.
The Knights defense,
however, was equally up to the task, although yielding 200 yards rushing, the
Knights forced 3 turnovers (to none by their own offense); 2 by interceptions
off of Thurber and a fumble recovery to help keep the team in the game down to
the last minute. Jason Zielanski and Tony Rojo lead the Knights defense,
getting 9 tackles each as the Gladiators ran 44 rushing plays to only 2
completed passes.
The game marked the closest
the Knights have been to victory since defeating the Mountain Home Bengals in
their first season in 2004. The Gladiators maintained their conference lead on
the Helena Titans for the #3 seed in the upcoming RMFL playoffs.
