What a great homecoming week! It was filled with many different events and was finished off with a win by the Bridgewater-Emery Ethan Seahawks. On Sept. 29, the Bridgewater-Emery Ethan Seahawks hosted the Canton C-Hawks for the homecoming football game. The Seahawks played a phenomenal game, defeating the C-Hawks 34-7.

​“It felt great to defeat the A school, Canton, and move in a positive direction in our season,” offensive guard/linebacker Bradlee Schultz said.  

The game started out with a kick from quarterback Brady Hawkins. The C-hawks scored their first and only touchdown off the kick along with a point after the touchdown (P.A.T.) Soon after, Jamin Arend rushed 60 yards for the Seahawks’ first touchdown and Brady Hawkins added a P.A.T. The Seahawks managed to hold the C-hawks to 23 rushing yards with eight carries and one touchdown, and the Seahawks racked up 91 rushing yards with eight carries and one touchdown during the first quarter. The first quarter left the C-Hawks and Seahawks tied.

“I really liked how after they returned the opening kick and scored, we did not give up. We came back strong and shut them out,” running back Jamin Arend said.

During the second quarter, Brady Hawkins pushed through the C-Hawk’s defenders to score the Seahawks’ second touchdown of the night. Later, Jamin Arend rushed 61 yards for the Seahawks’ third touchdown. Brady Hawkins added two P.A.T.’s in the second quarter. The Seahawks rounded up 105 yards with 11 carries. The Seahawks fought hard and played with an impressive defense that only allowed the C-Hawks to gain 29 rushing yards with nine carries.

The third quarter consisted of the Seahawks rushing 142 yards for 13 carries. Jamin Arend managed to find a way past the C-Hawk defenders and score a touchdown. Dustin Weber also added a touchdown for the Seahawks and Brady Hawkins managed to score one P.A.T. The C-Hawks struggled to rush against the Seahawks, ending the third quarter with zero yards for six rushes.

In the fourth quarter, the Seahawks rushed 59 yards for 11 carries. Halfway through, the Seahawks’ JV team took over for the varsity. They went in with confidence and held off the C-Hawks from scoring a touchdown. The C-Hawks rounded up negative seven yards for nine rushes.

“I really enjoyed how we came together and played as a team. We kept our pad level low which allowed us to work harder and move quicker. We were able to get into or work around Canton’s defense and keep moving the ball down the field which made it a very fun game to play,” Bradlee Schultz said.

Overall, Jamin Arend rushed 234 yards for 18 carries and added three touchdowns for the win. Brady Hawkins added 105 yards for nine carries and one touchdown, too. Carter Dye rounded up 13 tackles while Lucas Berg added 10 tackles. Jonah Hofer contributed two interceptions. The Seahawks rounded up 396 rushing yards for their astounding victory.
