Irwin leads the Marauders to fourth straight win Friday

SHERBURNE – Sherburne-Earlville grew their record to 4-2 after beating the West Canada Valley Indians, 28-12 on Friday night.
The Marauders opened the season 0-2 after back-to-back losses to two undefeated teams, Dolgeville and Canastota. Since, S-E has won four in a row.
The Indians jumped on the scoreboard first after Kris Crossett punched in a four-yard touchdown run, taking a 6-0 lead into the second quarter.
The Marauders responded in the second as quarterback Gabe Irwin scored from the one yard line. The point after attempt was no good to keep the score tied at 6-6.
Sherburne-Earlville tacked on another one before the end of the half to take the lead 12-6 as Irwin connected with stand-out running back Lincoln Owen for a 54 yard touchdown completion. The two point conversion pass attempt from Irwin failed, keeping the score 12-6 at intermission.
Irwin continued to shine in the contest as he extended the deficit in the third as he found Dawson Lagoe on a five-yard score. This time, Irwin was able to find an open Owen and the Marauders added on two more. After three, Sherburne-Earlville led 20-6.
The Indians attempted a comeback in the fourth as Kaleb Pohleven scored for West Canada Valley’s defense after he recovered a fumble by the Marauders. The two point conversion for the Indians stalled as the scoreboard remained 20-12 following Pohleven’s touchdown.
Owen tacked on another score in the contest as he ran for 50 yards. Irwin completed the two point conversion attempt as he found Lagoe in the end-zone, pushing the final to 28-12.
“We played really well tonight,” said S-E Head Coach Ed Holmquist. “Gabe Irwin did a nice job leading this group when we were faced with adversity early. I’m very proud of his development as our qb.”
Irwin finished 4-for-13 with a 102 yards passing on the night. He also rushed for 14 yards on six tries and one TD, the first of the game.
Owen continued his spectacular season with two scores in the game. His stat line read 84 yards receiving on two receptions and 126 yards one ground in 12 carries.
Teammate Vinny Albertina also rushed for high yardage as he recorded 90 yards rushing on 10 attempts while S-E’s Jesse Lynch carried the ball twice for 12 yards.
The Marauders host the 4-2 Little Falls Mounties Friday, October 13 at 7 p.m. for Sherburne-Earlville’s senior recognition game as well as their annual ‘Pink Out’ game for Breast Cancer Awareness. According to Coach Holmquist, if the Marauders defeat Little Falls on Friday, they will definitely be included in the Section III playoff picture. If a loss occurs, it gets complicated and dependent on other teams.
The playoff games will be announced for all fall sports teams in a later edition of The Evening Sun when the information becomes available.
