The Raft River Trojans came into Carey and gave the Panthers a thumping Friday in the season-opening game for the Carey eight-man grid team at Derrick Parke Memorial Field.

Rushing 55 times for 339 yards and capitalizing on four Carey turnovers, Raft River scored four unanswered touchdowns in the second half to break open a close 28-20 game and prevail 54-20 in the non-conference match-up.

The Trojans earned revenge for two straight shutout losses to Carey—20-0 at home last year and 50-0 in Carey in 2010.

Trojan senior quarterback Tanner Anderson (2 rushing TD) and senior running back Emmet Boden (23 carries for 177 yards, 2 TD) led Raft River to its first triumph after the Trojans fell 20-12 at Castleford the previous week.

In contrast, Carey (23 carries for 54 yards) couldn’t establish a running game and relied almost entirely on the arm of senior quarterback Jordan Dilworth (20-for-38, 189 yards, 1 TD). Sophomore receiver Nate Adamson (9 catches, 125 yards, 7 first downs) made fine grabs.

Carey coach Lane Kirkland said, “We’re a young squad, filling some holes, and Raft River is a good team that has been hungry for a while. They have a tremendous amount of speed and a lot of depth.”

The Trojans averaged 6.2 yards per carry and amassed 13 first downs overland. Three Raft River scores resulted from Carey turnovers. Besides their three lost fumbles, the Panthers allowed Raft River to recover two onside kicks.

Still, Carey had glimpses of good things to come with three touchdowns by junior running back Luis Garcia—including an 87-yard kickoff return.

Garcia’s one-yard plunge cutting Raft River’s lead to 20-12 in the second period came at the end of a 16-play, 67-yard, six-minute scoring drive during which Dilworth completed seven short passes for 46 yards and five first downs.

Right after halftime, Dilworth recovered an onside kick first touched by hustling teammate Francisco Gamino—and Dilworth completed a fourth-and-10 pass to Garcia for a 31-yard scoring strike.

Junior Tori Alvarez (14 tackles), Garcia (11), Dilworth (9) and Adamson (9) led the Carey defense, which takes the field again Friday, Sept. 7 with a home non-conference tussle against Owyhee (Nev.). There will be no junior varsity game.

Carey athletic director Lee Cook said Carey has added a home game against Carlin (Nev.) on Friday, Sept. 28 to replace a canceled road game due to the withdrawal of North Valley Academy from football.
