On Thursday, September 18th, the St. Augustine High School Yellow Jackets Junior Varsity football team defeated the Bartram Trail Bears JV 12-6, in a very tough defensive game for both teams.  Controlling the ball for most of the first half of the game, the St. Augustine Jackets got the first touchdown on a short run by sophomore running back Martrell Story, #9.  The Jackets were without a kicker and had to try to convert extra points by running plays from scrimmage, instead kicking.  After missing the extra point play attempt, the Jackets led 6-0.  The Jackets continued the control of the ball in the second quarter and marched down the field with a strong running game led by Storey and Varius Woodard – #4, and a 22 yard pass from quarterback Austin Reed – #7, to Karim Brown – #8, to get the ball into scoring position inside the Bears 5 yard line.  Jackets quarterback Austin Reed – #7, hit his tight end on a pass running a bench route to increase the score to 12-0 to end the half.

The second half was dominated by both defenses after the Bartram Trail Bears established a time consuming opening drive in the third quarter and scored on a run to reduce the St. Augustine Jackets lead to 12-6.  The Jackets were unable to get any 2nd half points on offense, as the defense had to hold back the Bears offense on a late drive in the 4th quarter to win the game 12-6, and increase the St. Augustine High School Yellow Jackets JV record to 3-0 on the young season.  Quarterback Austin Reed – #7, completed 8 passes in the game for 85 yards and one touchdown.

The Ridgeview Panthers made the game close after a Jackets turnover resulted in a long Panthers drive for a touchdown to cut the Jackets lead to 14-10.  On the Jackets next possession, quarterback Austin Reed, #7, engineered a long, time consuming drive that ended in a 10 yard touchdown pass from Reed to Varius Woodard, #4, that increased the Jackets lead to 20-10.  The St. Augustine defense continued to perform well holding the Panthers on their last offensive drive.  Needing first downs to finish the game, the Jackets established a long drive, kept alive by two 20 yard passes to pick up first downs and run out the clock in the game for a St. Augustine Jackets 20-10 road win to improve to 2-0 on the season.

A playoff loss ends the season for Austin Reed, #7, and the Sebastian Middle School Eagles football team

On Wednesday, October 30th, Austin Reed, #7, and his Sebastian Middle School Eagles (#2) football teammates played in the first round of the St. Johns Middle School Athletic Association (SJMSAA) playoffs and lost against the Landrum Middle School Lions (#3).  Landrum spent no time in the game getting on the scoreboard from the first play from scrimmage using a trick play.  After the initial score, the Sebastian Eagles seemed to be playing catch up for most of the remainder of the game.  Though Sebastian was able to move the ball on offense and put together good scoring drives, it seemed the overpowering Landrum Lions answered on the scoreboard ever time they had to.  The game ended in a loss for the Sebastian Eagles 35 – 20 and an end to their season as the Landrum Lions advance to the Conference finals.

Playing at Quarterback and Middle Linebacker, Austin Reed, #7, played an exceptional game at quarterback completing 5 for 7 passing attempts for 85 yards and rushed for two touchdowns on the night.  He would have been perfect in the passing game, but a couple of big drops on accurate passes brought his completion numbers down.  Austin Reed, #7, also played an exceptional game at Middle Linebacker making several tackles during the game, including a game ending tackle when Austin fractured his right throwing hand early in the 4th quarter while tackling the Landrum running back at the line of scrimmage.

Austin’s injury will have him out for a short 4 – 6 weeks.  During this time will be adjusting his workouts and preparing his body for the long off season workouts needed to prepare himself for the upcoming High School football season at St. Augustine High School.  Please see the following videos from Wednesday nights game against the Landrum Middle School Lions football team.

Game 1: Austin Reed and the Sebastian Eagles football team lose a close season opener to the Swiss Point Raiders.

The opening of the regular football season for the St. Johns Middle School Athletic Association started with a game between the Sebastian Middle School Eagles and the Switzerland Point Raiders football teams.  The game ended in a 6 – 19 loss for the Eagles, but the game was a lot closer than the score shows.  The Raiders scored with a long opening drive to take a 6 – 0 lead.  The Eagles then drove the field and scored, only to have the touchdown called back for an alleged holding call, the drive then failed to produce a score.  Later in the second quarter, Quarterback Austin Reed, #7 for the Eagles, connected with his leading receiver Kareem Brown on a 70 yard touchdown pass to tie the score at 6 – 6.

The Eagles had a chance to take the lead in the third quarter when Austin Reed hit his slot receiver on the goal line for what appeared to be the go-ahead touchdown, but the ball came out of the receivers hands just prior to crossing the goal line.  Soon after, the Raiders drove the length of the field and scored to go ahead 6 – 13.  The Eagles final drive failed on the Raiders 15 yard line late in the 4th quarter.  The final score for the Raiders came against the back-ups for the Eagles who substituted the starters on the Raiders final drive.

Austin Reed, #7, played both quarterback and middle linebacker for the Sebastian Middle School Eagles throwing 6 completions on 11 passing attempts, for 120 yards.  On defense he recorded 3 solo tackles and shared many other tackles with his defensive teammates.
