Mars 2024

[new2pa]

35-7 Kasper Jr with 4 rushing TDs. Mars showing nice variety in Offense. Not sure how good Knoch is.

Have Port next week likely for conference championship. Port has a bad record - but 5A teams who beat them have a combined 17-1 record entering tonight.

Mars goes down 28-7. In RedZone a bunch but couldn’t punch it in. After a slow start D did a nice job in second half.

Likely looking at a 5-5 regular season and a 7/8 playoffs seed vs Quips or TJ in round 1.

 

[new2pa]

After being down 21-6 at the half, Mars has got all the momentum and closed the gap to 28-26. Beginning of Q4. Neither D looks great in second half but Mars is playing with some spirit.

 

[new2pa]

Montour drives the field in 7 plays with about 10 total missed tackles and scores. 35-26 with 6:45 to play.

 

[new2pa]

Mars with stop and quick drive for score then with another stop and a huge punt return. 41-35 Mars with 2:30 to go. Montour ball. Incredible game! Mars D stepped up.

 

[new2pa]

Montour gets kick. First play is a draw for 75 yards to the 3. Scored on 2nd play.

42-41 Montour with 1:46 to go...

Both defenses are not good. I have no idea how Montour beat Aliquippa.

 

[new2pa]

Mars freshman QB leading them down the field. Ball on 32. In FG range. Under a minute to go. First down Mars.

 

[new2pa]

Mars scores on 3rd and long!!

Mars 48 Montour 42 with 12 seconds to go.

 

[new2pa]

Final. 48-42

Mars with upset of #2 seed Montour. Eric Kasperowicz Jr. ends up with 6 TD's! Mars scored 42 points in second half. An incredible game!

Mars will play McKeesport in another rematch next Friday. Thomas Jefferson vs. Quips in other semi-final.
