7th Grade Gold: The 7th grade Gold B team hosted the Tomball Willow Wood Wildkats this week at Jr Bear Stadium. The game was close throughout, but the Bears lost 12-6. Scoring the touchdown for the Bears was Jackson Rogers on a 15 yard pass from Noel Spurlock. Good job from coach Buss & Coach Dickson.
The 7th grade Gold A team played the visiting Willow Wood Wildkats this week and were defeated by the score of 26-0. The Bears could not put the ball in the end zone and the defense had a tough time stopping the fast Wildkat backs. Good job from Coach Buss & Coach Dickson.
7th Grade Purple: The Montgomery Bears 7th grade Purple teams traveled to Waller this week to fare off against the Bulldogs of Waller Schultz. The 7th grade Purple B team played tough but turned the ball over too many times and ultimately lost 6 to 19.
The 7th grade Purple A team kept a tight game as well, but lost. The Bears had several opportunities to score but couldn’t convert. The Purple team plays their last game next week at home against Waller. Come out and support your Bears and good luck!
8th Grade Gold: The Gold Teams traveled to Willowood this week to take on the Wildcats. The 8th grade Gold B team offense could not be stopped in what turned out to be a shootout. Running back, Matthew Ramirez, stole the show, scoring three touchdowns and converting on two conversion attempts, while rushing for over 150 yards. Luke Stuart capped off another drive with a touchdown of his own, late in the game. The Bear defense struggled at times but stepped up big with a stop in the closing minutes when Drew Maler intercepted a pass to seal the victory. The Bear B team showed some mercy, kneeling the ball on the Wildcat 1 yard line instead of going for the touchdown in the final seconds of the game. The Bears came away with a 27-22 victory over the previously unbeaten Willow Wood Wildcats. Coming up big for the Bears last night were Jacob Maldonado, Larry Scott, and Aiden Waters. Congratulations to the Gold B team from Coach Washington and Coach Bourgeois.
The 8th grade Gold A Team struggled to find a rhythm offensively in the first half and were unable to move the ball successfully. The Wildcat offense was able to score first and hit the PAT and carried an 8-0 lead over the Bears into halftime. Another scare came late into the third quarter when Willowood marched the ball into Bear territory but the defense tightened up and held at the one yard line on 4th down. Finally the offense found its groove and Alex Nunn took a handoff 96 yards for the Bears first score. Luke Coleman converted the PAT to tie the score at 8-8. The Bears made a gutsy call and onside kicked the next kickoff, which paid off when Juwan Raglin recovered. Three plays later, Caleb Campbell found Lucas McCaleb streaking down the sideline for a 40 yard touchdown. Luke Coleman, again, converted the PAT to go ahead 16-8, which proved to be critical because Willowood would mount a late game score. The Wildcats would need to convert but Dylan Buntyn had other plans. Dylan bowled over an offensive lineman and stretched his hand into the air and blocked the kick, winning the game for the Bears. Congratulations to the Gold A team on the 16-14 win from Coach Washington and Coach Bourgeois.
8th Grade Purple: The Montgomery 8th grade Purple B Team hosted the Waller Schultz Bulldogs last night at Jr. Bear Stadium. This was a great game as the Bears played hard on both sides of the ball the entire game. The offense did not waste much time to get points on the board as quarterback Baylen Mills found Caleb Merdian running down the sideline to score though the air from 50 yards out to make it 8-0. In the third quarter Bears running back Jake Gilmore, who just came back from an injury, took the pitch, broke two tackles and took it to the house from 45 yards out, and Patrick Locke with the PAT, to make it 16-0. The Bears defense held a late surge by the Bulldogs to finish the game on top 16-8. Great game!
The Montgomery 8th grade Purple A Team also hosted the Waller Schultz Bulldogs this week, and what a game. The Bears, on both sides of the ball, where on fire all night. The Bears offense put up 40 points on the night and 6 different Bears scoring touchdowns. The Bears quarterback Jordan Hood threw touchdown passes to Parker McCown, Jody Miller and Kyle Koss. Then Hood called his own number as he ran in a score from 60 yards out. The Bears running backs Trayveon Franklin and Ben Shields also found the end zone on the night to top off the scoring for the Bears. The Bears defense, in back to back games, pitched a shutout as the Bulldogs could not move the ball all night. Some standouts on defense were Dalton Niesner, Dalton Hall, Peyton Davis, Colton Canada and the Bears BIG linebacker Ryan Brock. Great game guys, with a score of 40-0 over the Bulldogs, from Coach Payne and Coach Schramm.
