Patriots Upset Douglass

DOUGLASS, KS - Visiting Christ Prep Academy Patriots jumped out to an early lead when Davis White took the opening kickoff for a touchdown. It was a lead they would never relinquish. CPA stopped Douglass on the Bulldogs first possession and then Tanner Metzdorf found Chase Stamatis for a 30 yard completion to the 1 yard line. Three plays later the Patriots scored on a Metzdorf run to push the score to 13-0.

Matt Dawdy stuns Douglass on this 74 yard TD reception.
Both teams struggled to sustain drives due to miscues and penalties but in the second quarter Metzdorf hit Matt Dawdy in stride for a 74 yard catch & run and the Patriots had the Bulldogs on their heels. Douglass size and strength seized momentum of the game and they scored two touchdowns before halftime to make it 20-12.

Douglass overcame their own mistakes by making spectacular plays - once converting on 3rd & goal from the 20 yard line for their first touchdown an




d later in the game scoring on 3rd & goal from 27 yards out.

CPA couldn't get much going on the ground but was able to make plays themselves, Metzdorf found Stamatis for another touchdown pass and the Gabe Jones kick made the score 27-12. Then Jones did damage on the defensive side picking off a pass and returning it 35 yards to the Douglass 15. Two plays later, Will Cook ran off the left side for another CPA touchdown and the Jones kick made the score 33-12.

Douglass answered with a 70 yard scamper to the CPA 10 and that set up a touchdown to make it 33-20.

Will Cook carries the ball in the CPA victory over Douglass 40-28.
Douglass then put themselves in a passing situation and Cale Thomas made them pay by picking up a Douglass fumble and returning it for a CPA defensive score and the Bulldogs backs were against the wall. But Douglass fought back and scored on again but ran out of time as the Patriots move to 2-0 on the season and the Bulldogs drop to 0-2.

Cale Thomas returns the Douglass fumble for a 4th quarter touchdown.
Chase Stamatis clears the way for Isaac Smith on the jet sweep.
NOTES:

- Metzdorf was 12-19-0 220 yds and 2 TDs, clearly the best game of his career.


- The Patriots were heavily penalized for the second week in a row.  Against Jeff County North they had 13 - 112 yard and against Douglass 9 - 85 yards.
