By WORTHY EVANS Contributing Writer, HSSR Columbia - In its Region 5-5A opener Friday night, Ridge View had a simple but solid game plan. Dominate the line of scrimmage and run, run, run. Spencer Bobian rushed for 191 yards and two touchdowns on 23 carries, and the Blazers rolled up 304 rushing yards on 46 tries to plow past Westwood 46-8. “We’re a good rushing football team. We’ve got two or three guys who can really run the football,” fifth-year Ridge View head coach Derek Howard said. “A lot of it is Aiden Keefe who’s been playing H-back for us. He’s opened up a lot of holes. He’s like an extra offensive lineman playing in a fullback position. We’re a different offense when he’s in there. Spencer Bobian did a great job of carrying the football and I think Ryan Williams did a good job for us as well.” Nine Ridge View runners had touches, most of them as substitutions in the second half. Bobian’s running attack set up all the scores in the first half. The Blazers (3-2) cruised through the first half riding the coattails of Bobian, who went into the locker room at halftime with 161 yards and a score on 17 carries. Bobian’s rushes set up Ashton Champman’s 17-yard touchdown pass to Carter Coleman and two Ryan Williams rushing touchdowns of 23 and 17 yards. Bobian gave Ridge View a 32-0 lead with a 1-yard TD run with 1:40 left in the first half. After Champman’s TD pass to Coleman and Williams’ first score—both of which Aidan Keefe followed with 2-point conversion runs—The Blazers defense chalked up a safety at the 2:57 mark of the first quarter to go up 18-0. “That’s kind of where we are and what we do,” Howard said about Ridge View’s start. “When we’ve come out in our games we’ve been hyped up real early, it’s just trying to keep that intensity throughout the whole game is the part that we’re trying to work towards.” The only highlight of the night for Westwood—and the team’s only first down, came just before halftime. Ridge View held Westwood (4-2) to minus-8 total yards until late in the second quarter. With the Redhawks parked at their own 20-yard line, Jovan Howard burst up the middle for a 78-yard run. Carrington Carter finished the quick drive with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Miles Grant . Carter found Jaylen Donaldson in the end zone for the 2-point conversion with 12.6 seconds to go before intermission to cut Ridge View’s lead to 32-8. In a scoreless third quarter the Westwood defense managed to force Ridge View to two turnovers on downs, but the Blazers’ offense couldn’t capitalize. The Blazers picked up two fourth-quarter scores, Bobian’s 2-yard TD run and Toryn Stuckey’s touchdown from 20 yards out, to seal the win. Westwood’s loss snapped its 4-game winning streak. “They’re one of the best teams in the state of South Carolina, and we’re not. And tonight showed that,” Westwood first-year head coach Stephen Burris said. “They’re physical, they’re fast, they play the game the way it’s supposed to be played, and until we do the day-to-day things as a program to get to that stage, these nights are going to happen.” Ridge View plays host to Spring Valley Friday. Westwood is idle this week and plays the Vikings at Spring Valley Oct. 9.
