範甯-雷德和巴伯帶領拉格蘭奇在季後賽首輪大勝

週五晚上，拉格蘭奇橄欖球隊前往蘭普金縣參加季後賽首輪比賽，以 48-6 的壓倒性優勢擊敗印第安人隊。

LaGrange opened the state playoffs with a dominant 48-6 win over Lumpkin County on Friday night in Dahlonega.

週五晚上，拉格蘭奇在達洛尼加以 48-6 的優勢擊敗蘭普金縣，拉開了州季後賽的序幕。

The Grangers (8-3) took the opening coin toss, elected to receive and marched right down the field on the opening possession to take a 7-0 lead after Malachi Fannin-Render found the end zone.

格蘭傑隊(8-3) 率先擲硬幣，選擇接球，並在馬拉奇·範甯-萊德(Malachi Fannin-Render) 找到達陣區後，在開場控球時直接沖向球場，以7-0 領先。

The senior running back was just getting started and scored two more rushing touchdowns in just the first quarter of play. Fannin-Render got a short rushing touchdown to put the Grangers up 14-0 before rattling off a 50-yarder late in the first quarter to give the away team a 21-0 advantage after the extra point.

這位高級跑衛才剛起步，在第一節比賽中就又獲得了兩次沖球達陣。範甯-雷德（Fannin-Render）短暫衝球達陣，幫助格蘭傑隊以14-0領先，然後在第一節末段完成一記50碼的傳球，在加分後讓客隊以21-0領先。

“We knew coming in that we had to establish the run and we did that early,” LaGrange head coach Matt Napier said. “We were able to get some big plays early, and that really set the tone for the game. Our offensive line did a great job of opening up some holes for our running backs, and they were able to take advantage of it.”

「我們知道我們必須建立起跑動，而且我們很早就做到了，」拉格蘭奇主教練馬特·納皮爾說。 「我們很早就打出了一些精彩的比賽，這確實為比賽定下了基調。我們的進攻線做得很好，為我們的跑衛打開了一些漏洞，他們能夠利用這一點。

LaGrange kept up the momentum in the second quarter. The Grangers did not throw their first pass until the second quarter as the run game was unstoppable. Starting quarterback Dylan Barber got in on the fun in the second quarter and put the Grangers up 28-0 early in the second quarter after an 82-yard touchdown run.

拉格蘭奇在第二季度保持了這一勢頭。格蘭傑隊直到第二節才第一次傳球，因為跑動比賽勢不可擋。先發四分衛迪倫·巴伯(Dylan Barber)在第二節中表現出色，並在第二節初完成82碼達陣衝球後幫助格蘭傑隊以28-0領先。

Barber did eventually get to throw the ball and connected with Kalvin Snowberger on a 67-yard touchdown pass on the first pass attempt in the game.

巴伯最終確實傳出了球，並在比賽的第一次傳球嘗試中與卡爾文·斯諾伯格 (Kalvin Snowberger) 接球，完成了 67 碼達陣傳球。

“It was great to see Dylan get involved in the running game like that,” Napier added. “He’s a very talented runner, and we’re always looking for ways to get him the ball. He had a huge run in the first half that really put the game away for us. We’re going to need him to continue to be a threat in the running game as we move forward in the playoffs.”

「很高興看到迪倫參與這樣的跑步比賽，」納皮爾補充道。 「他是一位非常有天賦的跑動者，我們一直在尋找讓他拿到球的方法。他在上半場的出色表現讓我們失去了比賽的機會。當我們在季後賽中前進時，我們需要他繼續在跑動比賽中成為威脅。

The Grangers had a chance to extend their lead before halftime, but a missed field goal at the buzzer kept the lead at 35-0.

半場結束前，格蘭傑有機會擴大領先優勢，但壓哨投籃不中，將領先優勢保持在35-0。

The LaGrange defense was swarming all night and got some plush plays in the second and third quarter. Kayden Sutton got an interception and a long return late in the first half. Corn Brown recovered a fumble on the opening possession of the second half. Jay Mitchell would get an interception and return the ball to the six-yard line just minutes later. Barber would score on the ensuing drive to put the Grangers up 42-0.

拉格蘭奇的防守整晚都在蜂擁而至，並在第二節和第三節打出了一些精彩的表現。凱登·薩頓在上半場後期被攔截並長距離回攻。科恩·布朗在下半場開場控球時失球。幾分鐘後，傑伊·米切爾 (Jay Mitchell) 接到攔截並將球返回到六碼線。巴伯在隨後的進攻中得分，幫助格蘭傑隊以 42-0 領先。

With the lead secure, LaGrange emptied out the bench and got some of their younger reserves some playoff experience.

在確保領先優勢的情況下，拉格蘭奇清空了替補席，並為一些年輕的替補球員提供了一些季後賽經驗。

Lumpkin County finally broke through and got some points on the board with a touchdown late in the third quarter against the second and third string defense.

蘭普金郡終於突破了，在第三節末面對第二和第三線防守時達陣得分，取得了一些分數。

The Grangers second unit on offense kept up the scoring. Cason McGill found Riley Cockrell for a touchdown with just three minutes to go in the game.

格蘭傑隊的第二進攻組繼續得分。比賽還剩三分鐘時，卡森麥吉爾 (Cason McGill) 找到萊利科克雷爾 (Riley Cockrell) 達陣。

LaGrange has now won a playoff game in four of the first five seasons under Napier after not winning a playoff game since 2012 before he took over. The Grangers will travel to rematch region champions Sandy Creek next Friday for the second round of the state playoffs. The Grangers lost the first matchup between the two teams this season, 28-7.

拉格蘭奇在內皮爾執教的前五個賽季中，有四個賽季贏得了一場季後賽，而自2012年他接任之前以來，拉格蘭奇就沒有贏得過一場季後賽。格蘭傑隊將於下週五前往地區冠軍桑迪溪隊進行州季後賽第二輪比賽。格蘭傑隊以28比7輸掉了兩隊本賽季的首場交鋒。
