CPHS Football: Sandites beat Shawnee 21-19 on Homecoming, Snodgrass scores 2 TDs

The Class 6A No. 11 ranked Charles Page High School varsity football team (2-2, 1-0) won their Homecoming game Friday night at Memorial Stadium 21-19 over No. 13 Shawnee (1-3, 0-1) to kick off district action. The Sandites led by 21-12 to start the fourth quarter before the Wolves began to rally for a thrilling fourth-quarter showdown.

Sand Springs outscored their foes 7-6 in the first and second quarters and won the third quarter 7-0 before being shut out in the fourth. Senior standout Jacob Snodgrass produced the Sandites’ first two scores on Wildcat runs, while sophomore quarterback Ty Pennington threw a pass to Daren Hawkins in the third quarter.

Shawnee sophomore Karsen Conaway was 13-31-174-1 with touchdown passes to Cyn’Cere Spencer and Jaylon Orange, and Orange also ran in a score. Extra points were the deal-breaker for the Wolves, as Ian Johnson missed his first PAT kick, and Alex Turner stopped a two-point run attempt by Spencer in the second quarter.

Both teams punted their opening possessions and Sand Springs was first on the scoreboard with an 8-play 51-yard drive, capped by Snodgrass’s five-yard run. The Wolves responded with a 6-play 66-yard drive, scoring on a 45-yard reception by Orange through blown coverage.

Three punts later and the visitors took their first and only lead of the night with a 10-play 88-yard drive and ten-yard scoring run from Orange. The home team quickly got back out front with an 8-play 51-yard drive and one-yard scoring run from Snodgrass for the 14-12 lead to end the half.

Drake Fain and Terik Meschkat combined on a sack to force a turnover on downs in the second half, setting up a 14-play 67-yard drive for the Sandites. Junior Daren Hawkins, who led the Sandites in receiving yards and touchdowns last season, returned to the turf for the first time this season to immediate success after a preseason injury. He was targeted three times on the drive, resulting in two catches for 30 yards, a first down, and a touchdown. Snodgrass nearly had his third score of the night on a three-yard wildcat run, but it was called back for holding, setting up the 13-yard pass to Hawkins.

The Sandite defense continued to come up strong throughout the second half, but the offense stalled out. Lane Webster made a sack on fourth-down to stall the Wolves in the Sandite red zone. Zane Christopher came up with a fumble three plays later to return the Wolves to the red zone, but Brooks Dudley tipped a pass and Ethan Sartin came away with the pick.

Shawnee forced a three-and-out, turned the ball over on downs, forced another three-and-out, then put together the final scoring drive of the game. The 13-play 36-yard push had big plays called back for both sides of the ball.

On the first play of the possession Conaway pitched a lateral to Orange, who connected with Spencer for a 36-yard strike that was called back for a false start. Seven plays later Caden Harris returned an interception 40 yards before it was called back due to pass interference. Sand Springs gave up two first downs on personal fouls to keep the Wolves in the game, and Conaway finally found Spencer from 13 yards out. Johnson’s PAT was the final point of the game.

The Wolves attempted an onside kick, but the Sandites fielded it aptly. They were held to a quick three-and-out, however, and the Wolves threatened once again. They marched 24 yards but ran out of time as a deep pass fell incomplete.

Pennington was 13-27-143-0 on the night, with Snodgrass as his primary target. Snodgrass was 6-48 receiving and Blake Jones led the ground game with 21 carries for 86 yards. Zach Heinen was 3-for-3 on extra points for the Sandites, and is 11-of-11 in his debut season. Keaton Campbell averaged 25 yards per kick return, Jerret Haley led in tackles with 9, Bryson Chase had a team-high 3 pass breakups, and Dudley led in tackles for loss, with 2.

Sand Springs will take to the road next Friday at No. 6 Muskogee (3-0, 1-0), while Shawnee will travel to No. 12 Ponca City (2-2, 0-1).

Prior to the game, the Church That Matters Tailgate Crew raised $1,434 for Sandite Wrestling and Raegan Foster was named Homecoming Queen. At half time Sandite Soccer standout Jack Bratcher kicked a 17-yard field goal to win a free dinner for ten from Rib Crib.

CPHS Football Preview: Sandites host Shawnee Friday for Homecoming

The Class 6A No. 11 ranked Charles Page High School varsity football team (1-2) will kick off district action Friday at 7:00 p.m. when they host No. 13 Shawnee (1-2). The Sandite Homecoming Court will be introduced at 6:30 p.m. prior to the game.

Prior to the game, the Church That Matters Tailgate Crew will be selling hot dogs, burgers, and chicken sandwiches with chips and a drink for $6.00 as a fundraiser for Sandite Wrestling.

Tickets for Sandite Football games are $5.00 for students and $7.00 for adults.

The Programs

Sand Springs is coming off a 3-7 season but prior to that was riding a program-best six straight years of playoff appearances. They are 64-69 (.481) under thirteenth-year Head Coach Dustin Kinard. The Sandites own one gold ball, from 1966, and made their last State Finals appearance in 2015.

Shawnee went 2-8 last year in their first season at the 6A-II level. They went 6-4 in 5A in 2017 and last made the playoffs in 2016. Sixteenth-year Head Coach Bill Brown is 93-74 (.556) at Shawnee. They own two gold balls from 1973 and 2003.

The two teams have only met seven times and Sand Springs leads the series 5-2. They met annually from 1992-1997 during the first six years of Class 6A. The Wolves won the first meeting, but Sand Springs ran the series until their reunion last year.

10/30/1992: Shawnee 21-14 (A)
10/29/1993: Sand Springs 14-0 (H)
11/4/1994: Sand Springs 18-6 (A)
11/3/1995: Sand Springs 20-7 (H)
9/27/1996: Sand Springs 36-0 (A)
9/26/1997: Sand Springs 35-0 (H)
9/21/2018: Shawnee 23-20 (A, OT)

Last year the Sandites were upset 23-20 in a rainy chilly overtime battle. Senior quarterback Caden Pennington was held to a 5-11-79-1 passing performance due to the rain, but was 18-78 with two touchdowns on the ground. Joel Mackey bore the brunt of the offense with 30 carries for 251 yards and a score.

The weather contributed to a sloppy game that saw three fumbles with one lost, two failed PATs, a red zone turnover on downs, and a red zone interception. On fourth-and-goal from the six, in overtime, Pennington had a wide open running lane but slipped in the wet grass. The Sandite defense forced an easy three-and-out but Shawnee kicked a field goal to win the game.

This Season

Both teams are 1-2 after non-district action. Sand Springs fell 41-7 to Mansfield Summit (4-0), won 35-0 against Putnam City (0-3), then fell 50-20 to Greenwood (3-0). The Sandites own the No. 11 offense, No. 11 defense, and No. 11 margin of victory in Class 6A-II.

Shawnee fell 49-21 to Choctaw (2-1), defeated Guthrie (1-2) 33-23, then fell 40-13 to Carl Albert (3-0). The Wolves own the No. 9 offense, No. 14 defense, and No. 13 margin of victory in the division.

CPHS Football: Sandites fall 50-20 to Arkansas State Champs, celebrate 100 years of football

Past Sandite football players, managers, cheerleaders, dancers, band members, and color guard members are recognized at halftime.

Sand Springs - The Class 6A-II No. 11 ranked Charles Page High School varsity football team (1-2) hasn’t shied away from tough competitors this season, taking up two out-of-state powerhouses during their non-district schedule. Just a week after shutting out Putnam City 35-0, the Sandites were on the receiving end of a beat down, falling 50-20 to the back-to-back defending Arkansas 6A State Champions from No. 1 Greenwood (3-0).

The Bulldogs won their 15th consecutive game and second-straight 30-point victory, taking a 50-7 lead before sending in the backups. Sand Springs ended the night with a 13-0 fourth quarter shutout. The game was the second and final installment of a home-and-home series. Greenwood won last year’s meeting 49-13.

The visitors scored on their first three possessions and blocked a punt for a touchdown to take a 29-0 lead before the Sandite defense made a stop. Sand Springs punted its first five possessions.

Senior quarterback Jace Presley was 31-45-307-1, accounting for 76% of the Bulldog offense and four touchdowns. He threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Treyton Dawson on the opening drive, then hit LD Richmond for a two-point pass.

Sand Springs caught a lucky break after punting their second possession when the ball deflected off a Bulldog and Bryson Chase recovered it. They were once again forced to a three-and-out, however, and the Bulldogs scored six plays later on a 42-yard strike from Presley to Caden Brown.

The Sandites marched 30 yards on their next possession before things began to fall apart. Pushed back to a 3rd-and-38 at the 22, sophomore quarterback Ty Pennington tried to punt the ball away but was blocked by Coleton Erwin who took it to the house for a 22-0 lead.

Another three-and-out for Sand Springs and the Bulldogs notched their first running score on a nine-yard carry by Brown. A fumbled hike gave Greenwood possession at the Sandites’ five-yard line, but this time Defensive Captain Jerret Haley came up clutch with an interception and 29-yard return.

Greenwood wouldn’t be stymied for long, however, marching 63 yards in five plays on their next possession for a 29-yard scoring pass from Presley to Justice Randolph. Jackson Stewart’s kick made it 36-0.

Sand Springs finally hit pay dirt with 53 seconds left in the half, marching 76 yards in eleven plays, to score on a five-yard run from Blake Jones. The Bulldogs needed only 51 seconds to return the ball to the Sandite five-yard line, but the defense held strong and left the visitors wanting on the final play of the half.

Presley was eager for another score to start the second half, and hit Dawson for a 75-yard touchdown on the second play of the third quarter, then Aaron Ligon scored on a one-yard run two possessions later.

Sand Springs responded with a ten-play 80-yard drive, scoring on a 28-yard pass from Pennington to Keaton Campbell on the first play of the fourth quarter, but a two-point pass attempt fell short.

Backup QB Coleton Payton led the Bulldogs to the Sandite red zone but gave up a turnover on downs, and Sand Springs retaliated with a five-play 85-yard scoring drive, capped by 39-yard touchdown from sophomore running back Alex Turner. Greenwood was held to a quick three-and-out on their next possession, and Sand Springs made it to the Bulldogs’ 15-yard line before Braden Potter came up with a sack to end the game.

Pennington was 16-33-143-0 in his second start for the Sandites, and Campbell was his primary target with seven catches for 93 yards. Jones led the ground game with 20 carries for 124 yards. Zach Heinen connected on both of his PAT attempts and has yet to miss in his career. Haley was the leading defender with eight tackles.

The Sandites are currently celebrating their centennial season and honored their football, cheer, dance, band, and color guard alumni at halftime. Past participants were invited to tour the locker rooms, dine in the Fine Arts Building overlooking the field, and walked across the field at halftime, grouped by decade.

Phil James and Michael Bowie were named honorary co-captains and Charles Page Principal Stan Trout performed the coin toss prior to the game. James was the starting QB from 1973-1975. Bowie played on the Sandite O-Line from 2007-2009 and went on to play on the 2011 Navarro Junior College National Champion team, the 2012 Oklahoma State University Fiesta Bowl Champion team, and the 2015 Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl Champion team. He currently coaches the Sandite O-Line. Trout was a three-year letterman and 1977 graduate. 

Prior to the game, the Church That Matters Tailgate Crew raised $1,107 for the Sandite Cheer Team.

Both teams will kick off district action next Friday at 7:00 p.m. Greenwood will travel to Little Rock to play Hall (2-1) and Sand Springs will host No. 13 Shawnee (1-2) for homecoming.
