ends at Berryhill
By Rick Lomenick
Journal Sports Editor
Perkins-Tryon will con—
clude the non-district por—
tion of the schedule with a
trek east to Berryhill. The
kickoff is set for 7 pm.
Friday.
The game will be broad-
cast on KGFY 105.5 FM
with the pregame show at
6:30 pm.
The Demons will enter
the game with a 2-1 record
following last week’s 44-7
thrashing of McLoud. The
Chief are 2—0 after their
topsy-turvy 42-32 win at
Cushing. This will also be
Berryhill’s home-opener.
This will be the ninth
time the two teams have
, played with Berryhill
owning a 6-2 series record.
P-T won the series opener
by a 6-0 overtime win in
1986. After that, the Chiefs
won five straight and with
four of those games by
shutouts. The Demons did
win the 2008 game by a
21-12 verdict for Berryhill
countered the following
year with a narrow 14-12
win.
Berryhill is coming
off an 8-4 record from a
year ago and bring back
numerous starters from
that squad. The offense is
led by quarterback Jacob
Bailey and includes run-
ning back Josh Sharp and
receiver Trey Walker. Look
for the Chief to utilize mul-
tiple offensive sets and to
try to spread the ball around
to their skill players.
-The defense will use
a 3—4 alignment to take
advantage of the talents of
linebacker Nate Inhofe. He
is joined by fellow line-
backer Dalton Burgess to
curtail an opponents’ run-
ning game.
The Demons are on a
two-game winning streak
and improvements continue
to be made with the District
3A-l season just a week
away. Head coach Bruce
Williams likes the chal-
lenge that playing a team
like Berryhill brings.
“They will be a tough
team but they are going
to prepare us for district
play and that’s what your
schedule should do,” Wil-
liams said. “If you schedule
cupcakes early on and you
get to tough district play it
makes things tough on you.
“We loaded our schedule
up front knowing that it will
prepare us for those guys

Trifecta scoring routs McLoud
By Rick Lomenick
Journal Sports Editor
Perkins-Tryon used the
trifecta effect in scoring
enroute to a convincing
44—7 win over the McLoud
Redskins here last Friday
night.
The win was the second
straight for P-T to improve
to 2-1. It was the first for
McLoud to drop to the
same record. Next up for
the Demons will be the final
non-district contest at Ber-
ryhill Friday night. Kickoff
is set for 7 pm.
“The kids played really
well,” said head coach
Bruce Williams afterward.

“We played hard and exe~
cuted the game plan almost
to perfection.”
Quarterback Autry
Westfall led the scoring
charge by throwing three
touchdown passes. On the
receiving end of two of
them were Donnie Beck for
7 and 26 yards. Bear Arnold
also hauled in a scoring
toss that tallied 38 yards.
Backup quarterback Caden
Williams tossed a 17—yard
TD at the 5: 12 mark of
the fourth quarter to Kirby
Calder as part of the aerial
attack.
“Our game plan was not
to run the ball at all,” Wil—
liamssaid. “We knew going
in they were going to make
us throw it.”
'Williams added he and
his coaching staff had
watched film from last
year’s game and felt they
were going to be given
the pass. Very little of last
week’s practice time was
devoted to the running
game. The third year skip-
per added work was done
on pass blocking in addition
to various formations. It
paid off as Williams was
pleased with Westfall’s
performance.
“He made some throws
tonight that were the best
thrombi his career," he
added.
Beck’s first TD catch
was the first quarter’s lone
score with 4:29 remaining.
Joel Kolari kicked the first
of his four extra points
for a 7—0 lead. The second
took place with 5:03 left in
the third quarter. Amold’s
ignited a 17-point second
quarter surge at the 10:40
mark.
The defense accounted
for two scores. The first
was a safety when line-
backer Landon Mages tack-

Guthrie, Cushing fall
Victim to Lady Demons
GUTHRIE — Per-
kins-Tryon solidified it spot
as among the best teams in
Class 3A last week with
a 12-0 hammering of the
Guthrie Lady Jays in Guth-
rie last Thursday.
It was a light week for
P-T as they played one
other game last week and
that was a 9-1 win over
Cushing here last Tues-
day. P—T entered the week
ranked No. 2 in the state.
Against Guthrie, P-T
exploded for 11 runs in the
top of the third inning that
helped bring an early end of
the game. The big blow was
a bases—clearing double by
Brooke Field to balloon the
lead to 10—0. Bailey Wams-
ley added a two-run single
as part of the rally.
After a scoreless first
inning, the Lady Demons
got on the board in the
visitors’ half of the second
frame with a home run to
left field from Makayla
Jones. Jones also added a
RBI single during the third
inning surge.
Jones arm Sidnee
Cowan each went 3-for—3
at the plate to lead the Lady
Demons. Two of Cowan’s
hits were doubles to help
account for 2 RBIs.
Field was the winning
pitcher is tossing a one-hit
shutout. She struck out four
and walked one I the abbre-
viated appearance.
The Lady Demons
cruised to a 9-1 six-inning
wm.
P-T notched runs in
each inning that included
a three-run sixth frame to
. end the game by run-rule.
Two sacrifice fly balls from
Jones and Bailey Aldridge
sandwiched a RBI single by
Sidnee Cowan to account
for the runs.
Field scored the first
run when she reached with
a leadoff walk. She later
scored on a bases loaded
walk given to Cowan. In
the second frame, Coley
