Martinsburg Freshman Wins Rematch Against Musselman, 26-6

Image
The first meeting between the Martinsburg and Musselman freshman football teams ended in a 20-20 tie a few weeks ago. This time around, there would be no tie. In an exciting rematch between two talented young teams, Martinsburg came out on top with a 26-6 victory over Musselman . From big plays to turnovers and exciting moments on both sides of the ball, this matchup gave everyone a glimpse into what the future could hold for these young programs. One of the more ironic moments of the game involved the quarterbacks. Both quarterbacks threw interceptions and somehow, both quarterbacks also caught interceptions! You definitely don’t see that happen every day. Despite the final score, there was plenty of young talent on display for both teams. Musselman has several 8th graders playing at the high school level , and they may be some of the most talented eighth graders I’ve seen this year. Leading the group is quarterback and safety Azariah “Azzi” Thomas , who is already showing that ...

Spring Mills Heads to Wheeling Park Looking to Avenge Last Season’s Loss

Image
By MOB Sports Media A Different Cardinals Defense One of the biggest storylines heading into tonight’s matchup is the Spring Mills defense. Last season, the Cardinals simply couldn’t find an answer for Wheeling Park running back Brennan Wack . Wack was one of the most dominant running backs in the area during the opening stretch of the season, rushing for an incredible 1,205 yards during Wheeling Park’s first five games . When Wheeling Park faced Spring Mills in Week 2, Wack continued that dominant run. He carried the ball 31 times for 233 yards and five touchdowns , putting the Cardinals’ defense under constant pressure throughout the game. Spring Mills had no answer for Wack that night, and his performance played a major role in Wheeling Park’s 33-28 victory over the Cardinals . But this year’s Spring Mills team is different. The Cardinals have a linebacker corps that is both physical and fast to the football , and I expect that group to play with a purpose tonight. They remember wha...

​Two Teams With Something to Prove

Image
Spring Mills finished the 2025 regular season at 6-4 before making a deep postseason run. The Cardinals advanced to the quarterfinals , where they faced the eventual WVSSAC Class AAAA state champions, the Morgantown Mohigans . What followed was one of the most dramatic games of Spring Mills’ season. The Cardinals battled Morgantown into double overtime , ultimately falling by just one point in a heartbreaking finish. For Spring Mills, it was a painful way to see the season end but it also showed just how close this program was to competing with the best in the state. Jefferson’s season took a very different path. After opening the regular season 0-4 , the Cougars completely turned things around, winning six consecutive regular-season games to finish 6-4. That momentum carried into the playoffs. Jefferson went 2-1 in the postseason , advancing to within one game of the state championship game before eventually falling to Morgantown. And that Morgantown connection is worth re...
