Camels clinch playoff berth after blowing two-touchdown lead
BY RICHARD SKINNER • ENQUIRER CONTRIBUTOR • OCTOBER 15, 2010
After spending most of the second half of Friday’s district game with Cooper having a hard time gaining the 10 yards needed just to earn a first down, Campbell County got the 10 yards needed to score a touchdown when it mattered in overtime to clinch its first playoff berth since 2007.
The Camels, who were bottled up for much of the second half after racking up almost 300 first-half yards and let a 28-14 lead slip away, scored on the second play of overtime and then stopped Cooper on its series to post a 35-28 victory at Bob Miller Stadium.
The win, coupled with Boone County’s loss to Simon Kenton and Conner’s loss to Ryle, gave Campbell County (4-4 overall, 3-1 in Class 6A) the playoff berth. The Camels play at Simon Kenton next Friday with the winner earning a No. 2 seed and a home first-round playoff game.
After amassing 293 first-half yards in a rare balanced attack for the pass-happy Camels (154 yards rushing, 139 passing), they were held without a first down in the second half until the final minute of the third quarter and two more in the fourth quarter, both coming in the final minute as they tried to driving from deep in their own end.
Campbell County won the toss in overtime, elected to take the ball and then came out in a three running back formation that resulted in a seven-yard gain on first down and then a three-yard TD run by sophomore Tyler Durham.
“I felt we were going to score, but I was worred about stopping them, said Campbell County coach Troy Styer. “I have the utmost confidence in our offense anywhere on the field and felt great with us starting at the 10 (the starting point in overtime). We went with the three-back package and it’s not something they see very much from us because we air it out.
“It goes back to my college days where my coach always said momentum is always coming our way. You’re going to lose it sometimes and you can’t drop your head you just have to realize it’s going to come back to you eventually and it did.”
Cooper (2-6, 0-4), which has lost two of its four district games by seven points and another by 14 points, certainly took all the momentum in the second half thanks to a stellar defensive performance.
The Jaguars scored three plays into the second half when senior tailback Dvontae Bradley sprinted 45 yards up the middle for a touchdown to cut it to 28-21.
Campbell County then faked a punt from its own 36 on its next possession and seven plays later Bradley scored from 19 yards out to tie it at 28-28.
At the point of the game Bradley had carried the ball 24 times for 168 yards, but he was limited to just four carries for eight yards the rest of the way after suffering a strained hamstring. Two of those carries came in the overtime period.
“It killed us not having him, especially in the fourth quarter,” said Cooper head coach Randy Borchers. “We were doing anything we wanted offensively in the third quarter and then he goes down.”
Bradley did go over the 1,000-yard mark for the season and now has 1,160.
Campbell County senior quarterback Michael Kremer helped lead the Camels to the 28-14 halftime lead by completing 10 of 17 first-half passes for 139 yards and two touchdowns, but then was victimized by several second-half drops and better pressure from Cooper to finish 16 of 31 for 223 yards.
Kremer said he thought the entire team was tight in the second half, but that he also believed late former football coach Woody Johnson, who lost a brave battle with cancer, was testing him and his teammates.
“We were kind of playing not to lose,” said Kremer. “We knew if we won we were in the playoffs and people started to get the jitters. We kept fighting though. Heading into overtime I brought everybody together and said, ‘We’re not going to lose this game.’ I said, ‘Coach Johnson is not going to make it easy on us. He didn’t go down easy and he’s not going easy on us,’ so we fought just as hard for him.”
Cooper got as close as the Campbell County 4 in the overtime, but sophomore quarterback Tyler Morris, who finished 5 of 10 passing for 136 yards and a touchdown, was sacked for a 10-yard loss when he couldn’t evade the rush due in part to what appeared to be his own hamstring issue, and then Bradley threw incomplete on a halfback option pass.
Borchers fought back tears while talking about how proud he was of his team.
“They keep battling,” said Borchers. “They keep believing what we’re trying to preach to them and what we’re doing. At halftime we had a gut check and told these kids if we were going to win this game we had to do it defensively and they answered it. We fought the same thing tonight we’ve fought the rest of the district games - that by the second half our kids are all going two ways and it just catches up to you. They’re undersized , they’re not the quickest kids, but they’ll give you everything they got. They just came up short.”

Next will will be a preview of the 1st round of the playoffs as the Camels head to Indendence and the Simon Kenton Pioneers. That will tell whether the Camels can legitimately compete
