Maes: “I'm just proud of our team. I feel like they've had a lot of opportunities to pull away or separate. Our seniors have had three head coaches in four years, and so it's been really hard for them. And I'm just trying to have them savor every moment that they get doing this, because it's such a short time. So I'm really excited that we were finally able to do it.” #opreps
Made the drive to David Douglas High School tonight to help out @PortlandPreps for a showdown between the Scots and Centennial Eagles.
Someone’s getting their first win of the year tonight! #opreps
Touchdown Scots!
David Douglas forced turnover-on-downs on Centennial’s opening drive. Four plays later — bolstered by 34 rushing yards from Malakai Fong — and DD is in the lead.
7-0, 8 min 43 seconds left in the first. #opreps
TC Carroll connected with Jacob McGrew on a 21-yard completion to open the second. Fong followed it with a grown man 30-yard rushing TD, breaking multiple tackles.
Scots lead 21-0 with 11 min, 18 seconds left in the second. #opreps
David Douglas leads 49-0 at the end of the third quarter. The Scots’ Octavian Caudle bobbled a low snap on the extra point attempt, picked it up, ran left, cut back right and ultimately found the end zone, scoring the 2 pt conversion.
Never seen that live before. #opreps
FINAL: David Douglas 49, Centennial 6
Scots dominated from the beginning. Tyler Maes gets the Gatorade bath in his first career win as a head coach. #opreps
