Howard's record no help vs Mayfield

MARION, Ky. – In a 42-6 loss against Mayfield Friday when highlights were rare, Crittenden County’s biggest moment went unnoticed by most.

While the event was nothing to change the complexion of the game, it had some personal value. It was worth a new entry in Crittenden County’s football record book. In the fourth period, junior Caden Howard inconspicuously became the team’s career receptions leader. He caught a shovel pass for an eight-yard gain to tie the six-year-old record previously held by Ethan Dossett, then broke it a couple of plays later on a middle screen for a five-yard gainer, giving him 128 receptions. SEE RECORD BOOK.

Howard finished the game with 41 yards on a half dozen receptions, but his performance had no particular bearing on the outcome as Mayfield scored early and often. Runaway carries by junior Cardinal running back Josiah England laid a foundation for the Mayfield triumph. The Rocket defense was no match for his combination of speed and size as he rushed for 191 yards and three touchdown.

Mayfield’s dominance was clear from the outset. England powered through Crittenden’s defense with an impressive combination of speed and strength, rushing for 191 yards and three touchdowns. England’s efforts set the tone for a Cardinal team that put the game out of reach by halftime.

Crittenden County's offense struggled to gain traction against Mayfield’s relentless defense. The Rockets were forced to punt six times in the first half and turned the ball over on downs twice. Their best opportunity to score came on their opening drive after recovering an onside kick, starting at Mayfield's 34-yard line. The Rockets pushed into the red zone but were ultimately stopped on fourth down at Mayfield’s four-yard line.

Quarterback Quinn Summers faced constant pressure from Mayfield's pass rush, taking four sacks in the first half alone. Though he completed 13 of 29 passes for 126 yards and one interception, Summers was unable to generate the offense needed to keep pace with the Cardinals.

The lone touchdown for Crittenden County came in the fourth quarter when Brayden Mahnke broke free for a 22-yard run. It was the senior back’s first career touchdown.

Crittenden’s defense, though forcing two fumbles, could not contain Mayfield’s potent attack. In addition to England’s standout performance, quarterback Gray Robbins was effective through the air, completing 9 of 12 passes for 140 yards and two touchdowns, including a 23-yard strike to Malik Kirby.

One of the few other bright spots for Crittenden County was CamRon Belcher, who had six catches for 78 yards. In addition to his offensive contributions, Belcher recovered that onside kick to start the game and recorded an interception in the first half, showing his versatility on both sides of the ball.

Despite Mayfield's two fumbles, their offensive efficiency and physical play on defense ensured the game was never in doubt. The Cardinals controlled the pace, and a running clock was initiated just before halftime.

Crittenden County will have to regroup in order to prepare for its final district game of the season next week at Caldwell County. The Rocket loss to Mayfield, their second district loss of the season, will mean a road game for CCHS to start the playoffs in a few weeks. Mayfield will play Murray High next week for the district’s regular-season title. Caldwell lost 35-18 to Murray on Friday. See this week's KHSAA Scoreboard.

Rockets get first shutout in 38 games

MARION, Ky. – Crittenden County returned to the familiar surroundings of Rocket Stadium Friday and put on a stunning display, dominating Ohio County with a resounding 49-0 victory. It marked the Rockets' first shutout in 38 games, a streak that dates back to 2021.

The Rocket defense was relentless, leaving winless Ohio County unable to establish any rhythm on offense. In a dominant first half, CCHS held the Eagles to a staggering minus-48 yards rushing. The Eagles managed only two completed passes, both resulting in lost yardage.

On the offensive side, junior quarterback Quinn Summers showcased his precision, completing 13 of 16 passes for 253 yards and five touchdowns. Crittenden County scored on every possession in the first half, except for one fumbled punt return by senior CamRon Belcher—his first fumble in high school. Belcher quickly redeemed himself, catching two touchdown passes and leading the Rockets with five receptions for 96 yards.

Junior Caden Howard also had a notable game, securing two touchdown passes and moving closer to the team's career record for touchdown catches. He now sits just one shy of the 25-touchdown mark set by Preston Morgeson, and Howard is only six catches away from breaking the Rocket receptions record, having tallied three catches against the Eagles.

Leading 35-0 early in the second half following Belcher’s second touchdown and operating under a running clock for the rest of the game, CCHS unloaded its bench, which preserved the shutout and tacked on 14 more points. Reserve quarterback Conner Poindexter connected with freshman receiver Eli Lovell for a 36-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter, marking a highlight for the young duo.

In a bid to avoid the shutout, Ohio County made a late push into the red zone, but their efforts were thwarted by a fumble. Rocket sophomore Davis Perryman scooped up the loose ball and returned it 85 yards for a touchdown.

Crittenden's defense was stunning against the Eagles, recording three sacks and throwing Ohio County's offense for a loss on more than half of its plays.

In a dominant defensive effort, several players stepped up with standout performances. Defensive end Kaiden Travis led the charge with an impressive six solo tackles, two assists, three tackles for loss (TFLs), and a sack, constantly pressuring the offense. Linebacker Brayden Poindexter also made his presence felt with three solo tackles, two TFLs, and a fumble recovery. Freshman Eli Lovell added four solos, an assist and a sack, while Gaige Markham and Trent Todd each contributed sacks of their own. Landon Curry forced a fumble to go with his two solos and two assists.

After struggling on the road with three losses in their last four games, the Rockets look to regain momentum as they prepare to host Class 2A’s No. 4 Mayfield next week for homecoming.

Ranked in the top 10 just two weeks ago, Crittenden County faced tough competition, including road losses to No. 1 Owensboro Catholic and No. 5 Murray over the previous two weeks. CCHS was 14th in this week's 2A poll.
