2-A South
MONROE, Utah-Ryker Albrecht ran for a key first down in the closing seconds to help the Beaver Beavers run out the clock and hold off the South Sevier Rams 21-19 Friday in 2-A South football action. The Beavers ran for 223 yards on the evening and were led by Albrecht’s 73 rushing yards and two scores. Additionally, Kaleb Barney ran for 56 yards on 10 carries and added another score for the Beavers.
The resilient Rams nearly overcame a 21-6 deficit as the 4th Quarter began with Tracen Winkel (7 of 13, 137 yards, TD) threw a 74-yard touchdown pass to Branson Palmer, while Palmer added a 9-yard touchdown run earlier in the quarter.
However, the Rams were forced to chase points because on a 1st Quarter touchdown run by Tyson Chisholm, the PAT was blocked and when they needed a 2-point conversion late in the game, Beaver was able to knock the pass away. The net yardage was also comparable in the game as South Sevier out-gained Beaver 301-298. Beaver improves to 4-2 on the season and 1-1 in 2-A South play, while South Sevier drops to 3-3 and 0-2 in 2-A South competition. Beaver is again on the Mid-Utah Radio Sports Network next Friday as they host North Sevier. South Sevier hosts San Juan.
