GlenOak vs. Garfield
</TD><TD noWrap width=3></TD><TD vAlign=top>By Gary Housteau

At least three big-time Division I recruits were in action at Fawcett Stadium when Canton GlenOak hosted Akron Garfield. Chris Wells from Garfield, already headed to Ohio State, had a monster game with 25 carries for 263 yards and 5 touchdowns. Wells looked like a completely different player from the week before. Mike Hartline led GlenOak to the win with his arm and legs by passing for 155 yards and running for 105 more, including the game-winning 2-point conversion for a 41-40 OT victory.

They obviously love their band at GlenOak! <HR>
The absolute best baton twirler that I've ever seen at a high school game! <HR>
This young lady belongs at the head of the Penn State Blue Band! <HR>
Back to the game photos. Wells on the carry. <HR>
The fourth quarter couldn't have been any more exciting. Both teams executed so well. <HR>
Wells ran like a man possessed! He was fantastic! <HR>
<HR>
<HR>
<HR>
Wells was determined... <HR>
...but so was Hartline. <HR>
Wells had one solid run after another on the night. He had an 80-yard touchdown run in the first half... <HR>
...and a 37-yard touchdown run in the second half. <HR>
But this 18-yard touchdown run in OT might have been his best run of the night. It was a jaw-dropper! <HR>
But Hartline came right back with a pretty nifty 12-yard TD run of his own in OT and then he took it in on this run for the 2-pt. conversion and the win. <HR>
Bob Sax and Jack Rose exchange pleasantries after a hard-fought contest. <HR><CENTER> 
It's a shame that either team had to lose this game. <HR></CENTER></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

From the Wisconsin site...Hartline hasn't heard much from the Badgers recently. Illinois, Michigan State and Kentucky are his favorites right now.

Hartline led his team to a 21-7 victory over Marietta this past weekend. Mike passed for 86 yards and a score, also rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown, but left the game with a minor ankle sprain in the third quarter.

McKinley junior rumbles for five TDs in rout of GlenOak

Repository / Scott Heckel McKinley’s Morgan Williams breaks free for one of his five touchdowns during Friday’s win over GlenOak at Fawcett Stadium. Trailing on the play is GlenOak’s Emmanuel Makis. Williams accounted for 402 all-purpose yards in McKinley’s 49-0 win.
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
CANTON — The name and the number have changed at tailback for the McKinley High School football team.
Everything else, though, looks the same to McKinley opponents.
All the spins. The bursts of speed. The long touchdown runs.
It’s just Morgan Williams, wearing No. 23, destroying a defense these days, not graduated record-breaker Ryan Brinson and his No. 3.
Friday night in front of 15,876 fans at Fawcett Stadium, Williams continued his impressive first season as the starting tailback, and the Bulldogs continued their dominant ways.
McKinley routed GlenOak, 49-0, as Williams gained 402 all-purpose yards and scored five touchdowns on 24 touches. The Bulldogs, No. 3 in the state in Division I, improve to 4-0.
McKinley head coach Brian Cross was “totally shocked” by the decisiveness of the win. But considering that the Bulldogs have outscored opponents, 192-35, these routs are becoming the norm.
“We kind of felt with the people we had coming back that if we just came out and kept getting better and better, we’d have a chance to be pretty good,” Cross said. “But never did we dream we’d win by this margin against them.”
Williams turned this game into rout with two breakaway runs in the third quarter. McKinley already was in control, leading 28-0 at half.
Williams opened the second half with a 74-yard TD sprint down the left side on the first play from scrimmage. The 5-foot-11, 187-pound junior spun away from a pile near the line, accelerated past two defenders and was gone.
“He’s awfully good,” GlenOak head coach Jack Rose said. “He can spin and keep his balance like that.”
That was the last carry of the night for Williams, who rushed for 174 yards on 16 carries. He ran for three first-half TDs, too, including a 31-yard run. He’s had scoring runs of 90, 82, 60 and 49 yards this season.
“If everyone does their job, the line makes its blocks and the running backs run hard, those plays are there,” said Williams, who has 641 yards rushing and a 15.3 yards-per-carry average this season.
Three minutes later, Williams got loose again, this time on a punt return. He went 44 yards, starting off to the right before cutting it all the way back to the left for his 13th TD.
“If the play looks like it’s broken, I just try to make something out of nothing,” Williams said. “... I try to get positive yardage however I can.”
Williams returned seven punt returns for 175 yards, as his work constantly gave McKinley good field position.
“He’s got more speed than you think he has, and he’s more physical than you think,” Cross said.
McKinley’s defensive work should not be overshadowed. Led by heavy hitters such as Jeff Vaughn, Mike Kirksey and Harriel Moore, the Bulldogs got their first shutout, limiting GlenOak to 111 yards.
“Defensively, I thought we played outstanding,” Cross said. “... We’re very aggressive, we run to the ball, and that’s what we’ve talked about — 11 people to the ball.”
GlenOak’s offense was further hampered by quarterback Mike Hartline’s ankle injury. He began the game with a noticeable limp, and he was unable to run as he has recently.
“It takes a lot away from them offensively when he can’t run,” Cross said.
Hartline was 5-for-15 passing for 48 yards. He had four balls dropped. He also was sacked three times.
“He couldn’t practice all week, and it showed,” Rose said.
GlenOak had just 20 yards in the first quarter when McKinley took a 14-0 lead. Williams scored on a 5-yard run, and Joe Morgan caught his seventh TD pass of the season from Dan Grimsley. Morgan went up to grab a 32-yarder in the back of the end zone.
After two more TDs in the second quarter, the rout was on.
“They’re very good, and we made them look very good at times,” Rose said. “It’s disappointing. I know we’re better than that.”
GlenOak hopes to regroup next week against Jackson, while McKinley looks to keep things rolling when it visits Austintown Fitch.
“We’re playing a team that beat us, 22-0, last year,” Cross said. “I don’t think we’re going to get complacent. The game will be in their house, it’ll be our first road trip, and we’ll be ready to play.” You can reach Repository sports writer Chris Beaven at (330) 580-8345 or e-mail:
