Haley sees energy in young Warriors

By Sam Wilson Sports Editor SALAMANCA — As the Salamanca football program turns 100 years old, its varsity team brings back just four returning lettermen. Looking at just those four players — three of them returning two-way starters — you might wonder why the school didn’t follow through on a cooperative agreement with another school. But first-year coach Paul Haley has a vastly different outlook on his Warriors. Numbers have proven steady after spring signups. The mostly inexperienced team wants to put notions of mergers to rest. Haley’s coaching staff has also impressed the importance of the team’s centennial on the youthful group. “I’m not sure they follow it, but we’ve definitely talked about it every chance we get, (say) how important it is to the city, the program that it’s our 100th year and what kind of year we want to put forth,” Haley said. “After hearing basically since last fall about how we don’t have the kids or talent to compete anymore, and for this amount of kids to come out and stay out, be fired up, what we’re seeing in practice, I couldn’t be happier.” Salamanca started last season with 51 players for varsity and junior varsity, but ended the year with 39. This year, Haley says he has 46 between the two teams, 27 of whom are listed on the varsity roster. “It’s up, but the best part about it is we have everyone showing up every day,” said Haley, the former J.V. and Salamanca Sabers pee wee coach. “We’ve only had one kid drop off and we picked up three or four since we started. It’s going in the right direction. “I don’t know what the change is, to tell you the truth. But they’re coming out and staying out.” Of course, it’s not just numbers Haley has to replace. Despite its 3-5 record, Salamanca had a formidable group of senior skill position players last year with quarterback Jared Fish, receivers Jimmie Nye and Andy

Crandall and running backs Tyler Siperek and Marcus Zaprowski. “Last year’s team had such deep talent at the skill positions,” Haley said. “We’re not deep at the skill positions like they were. They could absorb and injury here or there. We don’t have the depth to cover that.” Salamanca struggled mostly up front in 2014, not giving those playmakers enough time or space and failing to slow down the stronger offenses in its division. The Warriors snuck into the Section Class C playoffs at 2-3 in C South, allowing an average of 43.5 points in four regular season losses. “I just hope we’re going to give everyone a full, hard-nosed game from start to finish,” Haley said. “We want to be physical with teams and just get after them. We want our defense to fly around. Offensively, I think we have a little versatility where we can line up and power if we want to but we can also spread it out and throw a little bit too. But if our defense gets flying around like I think we can be capable of, I think it’s going to be a fun year for us.” “It seems to me our offensive line is coming together pretty well. We’ve got some big boys and although we have a couple that are semi-new, they’re picking it up pretty well and the older kids are helping them out. Also, our linebackers, we have one kid (Jacob Spruce) who hasn’t played in two years and he’s really done well.” With three seniors among those few lettermen, Haley said his upperclassmen have been valuable in the first weeks of practice.
Sr. T/DE Chase Halftown (#62)
“Especially Jordan Johnson, Chase Halftown, Marcus (Cooper) and Cole Quigley,” Haley said, “these guys are stepping up every day and not only are they leading us, they lead by example, and if our younger guys have questions I’ve seen a number of times where they stepped up and helped out. They’re positively reinforcing people. Our fire is starting to come back. We had a really good practice Saturday in our first day of contact. It was exciting.” Haley said he’s just excited to see how many young players look comfortable on the varsity field already. “You’d think there’d be a curve coming off of so many older guys,” he said. “But our younger guys are stepping right in. We are going to be young, there’s no doubt about it. We’ve got kids who can play, it’s just getting them up to speed.” Quigley steps in for Fish at quarterback. Junior Derek McClure will be the main ballcarrier, sophomore Jeremiah Shoup at fullback and Cooper the top receiver at tight end. Fish set a handful of school passing records in air-heavy offense. Of his successor, Quigley, Haley offered, “It’s very early, we’ve only been going against each other, but if we can get Cole the time to pass, and he can get comfortable there, he can throw. I have all the faith in the world in him.” Haley admitted while he’s pleased with the development from the early weeks of camp, he needs to see how the first-year varsity players react to game situations. “We need to play four full quarters and not take plays off. We need to see how the conditioning holds up,” he said. “And I want to see how they come together and play for one another.” Haley and swing assistant Pat Galante primarily coach the team’s backs, while assistant Dustin Ross and J.V. coach Seth Hostuttler coach linemen. Defensively, the linebackers work with Haley and Ross, defensive backs with Galante and linemen with Hostuttler. Haley said he plans to call the offense, while sharing game defensive responsibilities with Ross, his fellow former Big 30 all-star.
Head Coach Paul Haley (1st season)
Haley called it an honor to break in as head coach as the Warriors turn 100. He just hopes they can put up the kind of year his predecessors did in building that tradition. “It’s really special for me,” he said. “I coached the midget-pee wee level for so long, played here grew up here, watched years before me my cousins and uncles came up through. It’s exciting. I hope that we can get back to playing Salamanca football where we’re flying around, hitting, fired up. That’s what we’re trying to bring back.” THE RETURNING starters: Jordan Johnson, sr., 6-2, 320, guard/defensive tackle Marcus Cooper, sr., 6-0, 185, tight end/ outside linebacker Derek McClure, jr., 5-9, 175, running back/outside linebacker ALSO LETTERING was: Chase Halftown, sr., 6-3, 215, tackle/ defensive end THE PLAYERS, by position:

By Sam Wilson Sports Editor RANDOLPH — It’s hard to beat Brent Brown’s record after two seasons. At 25-1, what he lacks in tenure as Randolph Central’s head football coach he makes up for with unprecedented efficiency. After all, he has more state championships than losses. But Brown has a different task for his third year in turning over most of his starting lineup. Gone are the likes of Bryce Morrison, Michael Bowers and Jeff Andrews, all three- or four-year starters, three-peat state champions and the last connections to Pat Slater’s program. Slater retired after winning his third state title in 2012 and Brown repeated the feat each of the last two years, giving Randolph three straight and five of the last 10 NYSPHSAA Class D titles. After his prolific first two years as head coach, Brown, the former longtime defensive coordinator, said he’s taking a patient approach to year three. “Offensively, we’ve only got four (starters) coming back,” Brown said. “We’ve been looking forward to it, though because the kids gotta learn. They’ve come in ready to learn. We’ve done a lot with them and there’s some good athletes. We’ve got some size and some speed but it’s going to take time for sure. They’ve got great attitudes and I think they are learning. “We’ll see. You don’t have to be great Week 1, 2 or 3. You’d like to be, but you’ve really got to be good Week 8.” The Cardinals still boast 18 returning lettermen, including Big 30 All-Star running back/defensive back Devyn Nelsen, a 1,737-yard rusher; tight end/middle linebacker Mason Bosley, who caught nine touchdown passes last year; and two-way tackle Wesley Senn. They all participated in one of the more memorable high school games of recent Western New York history in last year’s state championship, a 21-point comeback against Chester. The Cardinals went from trailing 27-6 at halftime to winning a 48-41 Carrier Dome shootout. Brown hopes the experience gives his team a leg up while filling big holes early on. “The one advantage you have is you’ve been through that,” Brown said. “Not even just the state playoffs, but that game. Probably those guys are never going to be in another game like that one. I think they learned something through all that. They know what it’s going to take and so far we’re doing it.” Junior Jake Beaver is Morrison’s likely successor at quarterback, though senior wide receiver Tyler Stahley could see

Sr. WR/DB Tyler Stahley (#12)
time at the position as well. “It makes it easier if we can keep (Stahley) there because we do have so many new guys,” Brown said. “Jake throws the ball a little better, Tyler probably runs the ball a little better. “A couple of packages we had Bryce run even when Mitchell (Maycock) was the quarterback because he’s such a good runner. We may go that direction with those packages maybe with Tyler. Or maybe even Devyn back there. But as far as our base, Jake will probably do a lot of the same things Bryce did.” Senn and Andrew Bernard attended Jim McNally’s offensive line camp in Buffalo this summer. Brown did notice more difficulty getting players together before the start of practice. “Kids are pulled in so many directions,” he said. “For us, we get together about an hour a couple days every week just to keep up with everything and get together. That’s about it. The kids come in a little fresher. “You come in the first day and they’re shot. They’re sore and you start getting better but we didn’t kill ’em. Our philosophy is you’re not going to get in shape the first day, the second day or the third day. Sometimes you lose kids because they call it ‘Hell Week.’ We don’t approach it that way. By the time we get to Week 1, we’ll be in shape and we’ll get in better shape as we move along.” Along with Brown and Nate Armella, Kevin Hind and JV coach Greg Sherlock make up RCS’ official staff, but the Cardinals also have volunteers Chad Slade, J.J. Peterson, Jeff Padgett, Gerald Carlson, Tim Brown and Lucas Burch. Brown said so far, Armella’s defense, which returns five starters, looks ahead of the head coach’s offense. While the offense has a long way to reach the heights of the Chester shootout, Brown expects a competitive team from the start this year, when they visit a Section 6 Class D rival. “Week 1, you have Ellicottville-Franklinville (Sept. 4 in Franklinville), who we played at the Ralph, so every one of these kids is focused on that week,” he said. “They want to be good Week 1 because that’s who we play. “But a lot of the stuff we did, that Bryce did, during that run may not be in yet. But defensively we’ll certainly have that stuff in. Nate has done an outstanding job with our defense. We’ve got a pretty good bunch. In the beginning of the year we’ll probably rely on our defense quite a bit and when our offense catches up, then you might be a tough out.” THE RETURNING starters: Devyn Nelsen, sr., 5-10, 175, running back/defensive back Wesley Senn, sr., 6-1, 245, line both ways
