Allen senior Celdon Manning rushes for the go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter.
By David Wolman
ALLEN, Texas
As Allen senior running back Celdon Manning
walked along the sideline, a member of the Eagles coaching staff stopped
him, turned to him and had a short message for him. “He was telling me, ‘You’re a beast, keep doing what you’re doing,’” Manning said. With starting quarterback Raylen Sharpe sidelined
for Friday’s non-district game against Coppell due to a lingering ankle
injury, Manning and junior Jordan Johnson helped to carry the load,
rushing for a combined 341 yards in Allen’s 28-21 win at Eagle Stadium.
Manning ran hard all night and finished with 247 yards and three
touchdowns. Johnson added 94 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries.
“We took it day-by-day and he was not ready to go
tonight,” Gambill said. “We were hoping that he would be ready but was
not. So, we’ll start tomorrow and next week and take it day-by-day, and
if he is healthy, he’ll play. If he’s not, he won’t.”
With Sharpe dress in shorts and his No. 3 jersey,
Allen (3-0) rotated quarterbacks Hayden Showalter and Drew Cerniglia
between series in the first half, with Cerniglia, a Coppell transfer,
taking a majority of the reps in the second half. Cerniglia threw for 94
yards, which included a 4-yard pass to Bryson Green on a fourth down
play in the fourth quarter that set up Manning’s game-winning 17-yard
touchdown run. Showalter passed for 26 yards on five attempts.
But, it was another quarterback, Coppell junior
Ryan Walker, who gave the Cowboys every opportunity to pull out a win
against an Allen team that has never lost at Eagle Stadium.
Coppell (1-2) struck first when Tyler Reid booted
a 32-yard field goal on the Cowboys’ initial possession for a 3-0 lead
with 8:33 remaining in the first quarter. A 45-yard pass play between
quarterback Walker and Anthony Black on the first play of the drive set
up the score.
Allen took a 7-3 lead when Manning fend off a
couple of Coppell defenders just past the line of scrimmage and then
out-ran the Cowboy defense 78 yards for the touchdown and a 7-3 Allen
lead with 1:17 left in the first quarter.
Coppell got an interception from Walker Polk
three minutes into the second quarter and turned that into points five
plays later as Reid made a 41-yard field goal to bring the Cowboys to
within 7-6.
Allen turned to its running game on its next drive and extended its lead to 14-6 following a 20-yard burst from Jordan Johnson.
“They’re all good,” Coppell coach Mike DeWitt
said. “11 (Johnson) is good. 1 (Manning) is really good. What’s hard is
they’ve got multiple weapons outside. If you’ve got safeties in the box
to stop the run, because they’ve got three backs back there and they’re
creating more gaps, they can take shots on our corners because they’re
on an island. It’s a cat-and-mouse type of deal.”
Coppell didn’t settle for another field goal with
time winding down in the first half. With 10 seconds remaining in the
first half, and the Cowboys facing 4th and goal from the Allen 8, Walker
threw a touchdown pass on a clearing route to Cam Williams. Williams
was wide open in the end zone on the ensuing 2-point conversion. That
touchdown and subsequent conversion tied the score at 14 going into
halftime.
Walker threw for 252 yards on 15-of-28 passing with two touchdowns. Black had 113 receiving yards on just three receptions.
“He’s a stud,” DeWitt said of Walker. “He’s a
high-character guy. Just nothing rattles him. It’s hard enough to play
quarterback, but then, when you’re quote on quote, the backup, he don’t
let none of that bother him. He just shows up and goes to work. I’m
proud of him.”
Allen re-took the lead at 21-14 on a direct snap
to Manning that he took three yards into the end zone for a touchdown
with 6:29 remaining in the third quarter.
“It was a new thing,” Manning said of the direct snap formation. “Raylen was out today, so I had to play quarterback.”
Coppell answered with a promising driving that
moved inside the Allen 10-yard line but a false start with the Cowboys
facing 4th and goal from the 5 and a subsequent pass break-up by Matthew
Norman in the end zone on a pass intended to Black forced a turnover on
downs.
“I knew it was coming,” Norman said. “I just played through his hands and broke up the ball.”
Allen appeared that it was going to go ahead by
two touchdowns midway through the fourth quarter but Coppell’s Max
LaMendola scooped up a fumble and returned it 61 yards for a touchdown
and a 21-21 tie with 6:46 remaining in regulation.
“First, you’ve got to give Coppell a big, big
credit, because of the way they played and how Mike DeWitt and his
coaching staff and how they had their guys prepared,” Gambill said. “We
made a lot of mistakes. But, I thought we played extremely well when we
had to gut it up and get what we needed to do to win the game. That will
make us a better football team.”
And when Allen needed another big play, it came
courtesy of Manning. He burst 17 yards for the game-winning score with
2:15 remaining in the fourth quarter. He was showered with chants of
“Celdon! Celdon! Celdon!” from the Allen student section following the
conclusion of the game.
“Honestly, it was nice, but I couldn’t do
anything without my line,” Manning said. “They open the holes for me and
I appreciate what they do.”
Coppell had one last chance to tie the game but
four straight pass incompletions by Walker, including pass break-ups by
Caulin Price and great coverage by Zayteak McGhee on a fourth-down play
forced a turnover on downs and allowed Allen to run out the clock.
“We’re who we are when we play on Friday nights,”
Gambill said. “You can’t count on one person. I don’t think that’s
fair. We were who we were tonight. The most important thing is we
executed well enough to win the game.” Read more........
Welcome to 30-Day Back with Abel Albonetti! If you are looking to build a
bigger back try this high-volume back workout which focusing on rowing
exercises. ► 30-Day Back With Abel Albonetti: https://bbcom.me/2QbhexO ► Bodybuilding.com Teespring: http://bit.ly/2YSe5Tm ► All Access 7-Day Free Trial: https://bbcom.me/2Qaa2C0 | Abel Albonetti's High-volume Back Building Workout | 1. Wide-Grip Pull-Down: 5 sets, 12/10/10/10/8 reps
(double dropset after the final set) 2. Bent-Over Barbell Row: 4 sets, 12 reps
(double drop set after the final set) 3. Single-Arm Dumbbell Row: 4 sets, 12 reps 4. T-Bar Row: 4 sets, 10 reps 5. Wide-Grip Seated Cable Row: 5 sets, 8-10 reps 6. Plate Hyperextension: 4 sets, 12 reps The workouts in Abel Albonetti's 30-Day Back plan follow a pattern:
Workout 1 devotes most of the volume to rowing, Workout 2 contains more
vertical pulls, and Workout 3 is often a mix of both. Why? This movement pattern helps to fully engage your lats so they're
ready to fire (and subsequently catch on fire) during the rest of the
workout. Then it's row time: bent-over barbell rows, single-arm dumbbell
rows, T-bar rows, and close-grip seated cable rows. When you're sick of
rows, you'll close out with hyperextensions. It's worth spending a few extra minutes during the first week's workouts
to get set up, home in on the weight ranges you'll use, and make any
gear adjustments needed. For instance, you may want to experiment with
different grip options on the T-bar row. If you're stacking up 45-pound
plates, using an extender on the bar can allow a wider range of motion
without hitting yourself in the face.
For all the exercises, let your muscles, not your ego, pick the weights.
You should still be able to control the weight through every rep with
perfect form and a full range of motion! And if you find that this
workout simply demands more time than you can spare, or more volume than
your body can recover from, follow Abel's recommendations for cutting
back volume from the 30-Day Back Main Page.
Tune in as Ty and the crew speak with Dr. Selvam in Malaysia. Learn how
cancer is not a disease, but rather a symptom… and how the immune system
plays a truly powerful role. Get the full documentary here: http://bit.ly/buy-eastern-medicine. Dr. Selvam begins by explaining that many of his patients come to him
after trying a conventional path. He shares his focus and why premature
aging contributes to many forms of chronic illness. Did you know that a DHEA hormone deficiency – generally caused by
stress, refined carbs, gadgets, phones, too much WiFi, etc – can throw
off over 150 functions in your body? Dr. Selvam will teach the
importance of hormones and how keeping them balanced can save our lives.
P.S - there is a simple blood test that can detect this imbalance. Most
cancer patients have DHEA levels close to “0”. He gives us a handful of incredible cancer prevention tips, including
kicking those carbs! He is a firm believer in the keto diet, including
MCT oils, and which types of nuts you want to be sure to include in a
modified ketogenic diet. Are you treating the symptoms, or are you treating the root cause of the
disease? Treating the symptoms may just be suppressing the disease,
rather than curing it.
Check out the full episode here: http://bit.ly/buy-eastern-medicine. In the summer of 2018, we traveled through Japan, Taiwan, Philippines,
Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and India. Asia is the birthplace of
natural medicine with records as old as the 3rd century BCE showing the
use of specific natural remedies. Remarkably, we still use some of them
today! Over 60 experts, medical doctors, herbalists, and cancer
survivors tell us what they did, how they did it, and what their results
were in “Eastern Medicine: Journey Through ASIA.”

“All praise to God, the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have
been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead…” (1
Peter 1:3, NLT).
The Law of Moses provided no
opportunity for the people to become Christians. Grace allows us to be
born again and receive new lives in Christ; it brings the knowledge that
God is pleased with us because of our faith in Jesus.
Have all my sins REALLY been forgiven by God? Watch to find out why your conscience can rest fully in the truth that
YES, He has justly forgiven all your sins. And because God lives outside
time, there is not one of your sins—past, present or future—that isn’t
covered by His forgiveness. Knowing that doesn’t make you live recklessly, but rather, it gives you
strength to stop doing things that’ll destroy you. Just like how Jesus
first told the woman caught in adultery in the Bible: “Neither do I
condemn you,” BEFORE telling her to sin no more (see John 8:11).
I exhort therefore, that, first of all,
supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for
all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead
a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
1 Timothy 2:1-2
We are commanded to pray for our country and our leaders. But having prayed, God expects us to act. The
elections in the United States are vital to the future of this nation.
Our country is in the midst of a spiritual outpouring, and it’s vitally
important that the right people be elected. We must see to it. Don’t
wait until election time is upon us before you start seeking God for
whom to vote. Begin to pray now so that the news media and other voices
from every corner cannot influence you and cannot draw you in a
direction away from the Spirit of God. Pray so that you won’t be
influenced by natural reactions and natural responses to cleverly
designed commercials and ideas. Start praying now about the coming
elections. Whether they are small local elections or major national
elections, make them a part of every prayer you pray. Then thank the
Spirit of God for His wisdom concerning for whom to vote. Thank Him for
giving you His wisdom about what to say and when to say it to others.
Thank Him for giving you wisdom to declare the Name of Jesus and declare
that this shall be a God-indwelt, God-ordained, God-overseen
administration. So register. Pray. Vote. Then stand up and be counted by the power of the living God.
