2008 Northeast All-Inland Awards Handed Out

Posted by Dave Rea at Nov 11, 2008 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )
Three former players from BYFA now playing for the Bucks were recognized as the Northeast District All-Inland Awards were handed out on Saturday, November 15th. The Northeast District covers all of Northeastern Ohio. These players were awarded in Division III which is the division in which Buckeye plays football.

Named to the First Team as an Offensive Lineman is Senior, and former Jet, Cody Muhek. Given Honorable Mention were Juniors Kelton Keller, as a lineman, and Mike Kelly at Quarterback, both of whom are former Jaguars. Congratulations Guys!

The Brunswick Jets and the Jaguars hooked up Saturday Night at Steingass Field at Buckeye High School for the 2008 Championship game. The Jets won it, shutting out the Jaguars 21-0. It was the Jags only loss of the season as they finished with a 9-1 League record and a 12-1 overall record. The Jets kept their record unblemished at 10-0.

The Jags kept the ball most of the 1st half and finally surrendered a touchdown to the Jets with less than 2 minutes to go and the teams went to intermission with the Jags trailing 7-0. In the second half the Jags could not get the offense untracked and the Jets added two more scores to make it 21-0.

Despite that loss the Varsity Squad had a very successful season, becoming the first BYFA team to win 12 games in one season, and they, along with our Jets, made the first ever tournament appearances by participating in the Medina Kickoff Classic where they won all 3 of the games they played. We congratulate the Jets on their Championship, and we also congratulate the Jaguars on their 2008 Season.
