Sept. 30 George Washington game

Fenwick Arm Carries GW Over PHS

............CHARLESTON – Abe Fenwick’s amazing accuracy in the passing department led George Washington to a 42-10 win over Parkersburg here Friday night in a Mountain State Athletic Conference contest. The Patriot quarterback came into the game completing 61 percent of his passes for over 1,000 yards and 10 touchdowns but out-did himself against the Big Reds’ secondary as he hit 28 of 35 (80 percent) for 316 yards (he had been averaging 223 yards per game) and five touchdowns. Keegan Sack caught two scoring passes among his 10 receptions for 94 yards while Hayden Hatfield also had two receiving touchdowns among his eight catches for 125 yards. The Patriots built a 28-3 halftime lead, scoring on all four of their first half possessions, en route to their fourth win in six outings. They had a 29-9 edge in first downs and a 433-213 margin in total offense. The Big Reds managed just a field goal of 40 yards by Casey Stanley in the second quarter and a 58 yard touchdown pass from David Parsons to Andrew Stalnaker in the fourth quarter as they fell to 2-3 on the season. A nine play, 76 yards drive on the opening possession gave the home team a lead they never gave up. Six of the first nine plays were runs With Anthony Valentine gaining 32 yards on four carries. The TD came on a 19 yard pass to Sack. PHS got a first down on a penalty on its second play of the game but had to punt and GW fashioned a 13-play, 78 yard drive with the big play coming when Fenwick hit Valentine with a four yard pass on a fourth down and three to go situation. Another Big Red three-and-out series ended badly with a 10 yard punt giving the Patriots the ball on the PHS 33. Five plays later Fenwick again hit Sack for a touchdown from seven yards out to make it 21-0. A 28-yard kickoff return by Aiydn Cooke gave PHS good field position after that and the Big Reds were able to drive to the GW 23 yard line before settling for a field goal by Stanley. Twice PHS converted fourth down plays, one on a six yard pass to Anthony Ice when five yards was needed and the second time on a three yard run by Parsons when two yards were required. The relentless aerial bombardment by Fenwick continued on the next GW possession as he drove his team 80 yards in 11 plays led by his six completions in six attempts and capped it with a nine yard catch by Hatfield, who bobbled the ball in the end zone, was hit by a defender but still held onto the ball to make the score 28-3. The Big Reds took the second half kickoff and drove from their own 44 to the GW 13 but had to settle for a field goal attempt that missed with 5:11 on the third quarter clock. An 11-play, 80-yard drive by GW made it 35-3 as Fenwick got the score on an eight yard completion to Hunter Giacomo. Hatfield had a 27 yard catch and run through tackles for the final GW touchdown with 9:30 on the fourth quarter clock but PHS quickly answered when Parsons found a wide-open Stalnaker on a 58 yard scoring pass with 7:39 remaining on a running clock for the final 42-10 margin. Parsons finished the night completing nine of 21 passes for 159 yards with Stalnaker catching three for 61 yards and Aiydn Cooke catching two for 55 to go with 37 yards rushing on seven attempts.#18 Parkersburg vs #12 George Washington (Sep 30, 2022 at Charleston)Score by Quarters ..........1 .....2 .....3 .....4 TotalParkersburg 0 3 0 7 - 10George Washington 14 14 7 7 - 42Qtr Time Scoring play1st 08:28 GW - Keegan Sack 19 yd pass from Abe Fenwick (Jordan Price kick), 9-76 3:3201:41 GW - Anthony Valentine 1 yd run (Jordan Price kick), 13-78 4:552nd 10:56 GW - Keegan Sack 7 yd pass from Abe Fenwick (Jordan Price kick), 5-33 1:4805:45 PHS - Casey Stanley 40 yd field goal, 13-46 5:0201:05 GW - Hayden Hatfield 9 yd pass from Abe Fenwick (Jordan Price kick), 11-80 4:403rd 00:42 GW - Hunter Giacomo 8 yd pass from Abe Fenwick (Jordan Price kick), 11-80 4:294th 09:30 GW - Hayden Hatfield 27 yd pass from Abe Fenwick (Jordan Price kick), 4-63 1:1707:39 PHS - Andrew Stalnaker 58 yd pass from David Parsons (Casey Stanley kick), 2-60 1:11
