Streaks Extended

The Dewar Dragon varsity football team extended three different winning streaks this past Friday in Quinton.

The Dewar Dragon varsity football team extended three different winning streaks this past Friday in Quinton.

The Dragons scored 56 unanswered points last Friday to rout the host Quinton Savages 56-6 in the 2021 regular-season finale for the defending Class B state champions.

The mercy-rule win extended Dewar’s current winning streak to 25 games, as well as the Dragons’ current district winning streak.

The lopsided victory also added to another Dewar winning streak. Since losing to Davenport by a 50-38 margin on September 28, 2018, the Dragons have won their last 35 regular-season games, which includes finishing the last three regular seasons with unblemished 10-0 records.

Dewar will continue their journey towards a repeat state championship this Thursday, hosting Cave Springs in the first round of the Class B play-offs. The Dragons will welcome the Hornets, who finished fourth in the District B-6 standings, to Dr. Ted Lewis Stadium in Dewar for the postseason opener.

A win on Thursday will move the defending state champion Dragons into next week’s second round at home against the winner of a first-round matchup between Garber and Foyil, while an opening-round loss to Cave Springs will bring a close to Dewar’s bid for a repeat state title.

Kickoff for Thursday’s playoff opener against Cave Springs is set for 7 p.m. in Dewar.

In last Friday’s regular-season finale, the host Savages reached the end zone first for an early 6-0 advantage.

The Dragons responded on the ensuing kickoff when Ty Whitlow returned the Quinton kick 76 yards to paydirt, deadlocking the score at 6-6. Whitlow then hauled in a pass from Jameson Ross on the conversion attempt to put the Dewar squad in front by an 8-6 margin - a lead that the Dragons did not relinquish the remainder of the contest.

The visitors found the end zone two more times in the opening period, including a 70-yard TD pass from Ross to Whitlow, and were successful on both conversion attempts to take a 24-6 lead into the second stanza. Kaelem Carter accounted for the third Dewar touchdown in the opening frame.

The Dragons scored four times in the second quarter and were successful on 3 of 4 conversion attempts in the frame to go into halftime with a commanding 50-6 advantage.

Ross and Whitlow hooked up on a 58-yard TD pass in the second period, while Nevin Corbin rocketed into the end zone on a pair of rushing touchdowns in the quarter. Carter capped off his 2-touchdown night for the other Dewar score in the second stanza. The regular-season finale came to a

The regular-season finale came to a close on the mercy rule in the third quarter when Tryton Mack returned the opening kickoff of the second half 57 yards to paydirt, giving the Dragons the 56-6 victory.

As a team, Dewar finished with 390 yards of total offense on just 27 plays - an average of 14.4 yards per play. The Dragons ran the ball 15 times for 147 yards, led by Nevin Corbin with eight carries for 87 yards and two scores.

Carter finished with four carries for 44 yards and one score, followed by Ross with two carries for 13 yards and Christian Cargola with one carry for three yards.

Ross was a perfect 12-for-12 passing last Friday for 243 yards and 2 TDs with Whitlow leading the way with four catches for 139 yards and 2 TDs.

Thomas Brownfield was next in the receiving department, hauling in six passes for 64 yards. Ross’ other two completions last Friday went to Nevin Corbin and Marshall Been for 25 and 15 yards, respectively.
