Snowmaker Mike Bentley jumps out of his Steamboat Ski Area vehicle earlier this week to check one of the dozens of guns set up along the Vagabond trail at the Steamboat Ski Area. Snowmakers are hoping for cooler temperatures this week in order to make snow at the resort — which has delayed its opening to Nov. 30.
Coy Letlow, left, and Russell Waugh rushed for 100 and 48 yards, respectively, to help Hayden advance to Saturday’s semifinal match-up with Akron.
Hayden quarterback Mitch Doolin went 11-17 for 126 yards, 1 touchdown and no interceptions after his offensive line blocked a stout Byers line anchored by 240-pounder Kasey Martin (68). Hayden faces a leaner and faster squad in the No. 1-seeded Akron Rams team it will host Saturday.
Hayden coach Shawn Baumgartner congratulated the Tigers after their upset win, Saturday in Byers, but reminded them they could not be satisfied, now looking down the gauntlet at a Saturday semifinal with No. 1-ranked Akron.
Baumgartner knows the Tigers will need to control the ground game in their semifinal game Saturday like they did in their quarterfinal game, when the offensive line helped open holes for Mitch Doolin (No. 9) and the Tigers’ backfield to establish the run.
Jake Magee, left, Dusty Parrott and Garrett Murchison helped an out-sized Hayden offensive line to an upset quarterfinal victory in Byers, and now have another stiff assignment with the speedy Akron Rams on Saturday.
