Dublin beats Springfield 31-12
Final from Dublin Coffman: 31-12. Springfield’s season is over with a 6-5 record.
The Wildcats are running out of time. Seven minutes left and Springfield needs a score.
Dublin is wearing Springfield down: Plays that went for no yards are now going for six or eight, and the Springfield offense has no room to move.
Dublin’s Kyle Clinton just hit a 45-yard field goal. 24-6 Dublin with 8:33 left.
It would have been good from 10 yards past that.
Dublin scored to start the fourth quarter after a 74-yard drive. 21-6 Dublin.
End of three quarters: Dublin 14-6. The Rocks are driving and have the ball on the Wildcats’ 24.
Coffman just completed a 57-yard touchdown pass. The Rocks lead 14-6 with 6:26 left in the third.
Halftime stats: Springfield has 184 yards on 31 plays (154 rush, 30 pass).
George Walker has rushed for 85 yards and passed for 30. Titus Montgomery has 58 yards on four carries.
The big play is B.J. Bush’s 15 yard fumble recovery for a TD. The Wildcats were deep in the Rocks’ territory twice. They missed a field goal and had a 9-yard TD pass called back because of a penalty.
Dublin has 139 yards, 33 rushing and 106 passing. The big play was a 62-yard screen pass from Colton Caldwell to Conner Viers for Dublin’s score.
Halftime, still 7-6 Dublin. Will post stats when they’re available.
2:17 left in the half. Still 7-6. Springfield is faster and more aggressive; Dublin playing conservative.
8:49 left in the half: A Dublin screen pass went for 62 yards. Dublin’s up 7-6.
9:16 left in the half: B.J. Bush picked up a Dublin fumble and ran 15 yards for the score. The two-point conversion failed.
Another sign that things are headed Springfield’s way: Trey DePreist’s kick off went into the end zone.
End of first quarter: 0-0. Springfield had a TD pass called back, but is threatening to score again. A long run from Titus Montgomery put the Wildcats inside the 15 to end the quarter.
Springfield is driving. A 22-yard run from George Walker put the Wildcats on the Shamrocks’ 24.
Springfield and Dublin traded punts to start the game. We’ve got 5:30 left in the first quarter.\
6:25 p.m.: I’ll be posting live tonight from Coffman Stadium as Springfield participates in its first-ever playoff football game.
This is a Division I, Region 3 quarterfinal. Coffman is 10-0 and the No. 1 seed. Springfield is 6-4 and the No. 8 seed.
Quick impressions:
Coffman Stadium is huge. Not a good crowd, yet.
The Shamrocks have a HUGE team, and an even bigger band.
Springfield looks loose. We’ll see how that translates to the game.
