Jr. Midgets

The Yreka Chargers Jr Midget team traveled to Colusa for their first round playoff game against the Winters Jr Warriors. The fans that traveled were not disappointed as the Chargers dominated the number two seeded Warriors from the South with a win 46-21.

The offense started quickly as they moved down the field on a series of plays that ended with a seven yard touchdown run by Drew Robles. The next two drives, lead by the strong arm of Tyler Currie, ended on a 19-yard touchdown pass to Stevie Albers, and a twenty yard touchdown pass to Eddie Robles. (more…)

On Saturday, October 24, the Charger Mighty Mites took on the Corning Lions. The Corning Lions were a tough competition for the Charger Mighty Mites both offensively and defensively. The Charger Mighty Mites put forth every effort while battling the Corning Lions. First quarter defense was strong but not strong enough for the Corning Lions; the charger Mighty Mites made the Corning Lions fight for every positive yard that they gained. Great tackles were made by Devon Applewhite, Davon Ruiz, Wesley Ward, Jake Peterson and Skylar Conrad. Makayla ten Berge had an outstanding tackle in the third quarter. Offensively Travis Arwood, Travis Hedin, Randal Hughes, Antonio Fernandez and the rest of the Charger offensive did a great job blocking and running the ball; the fumbles at the goal line however kept bringing the Mighty Mites back to the 40 yard line.

Last weekend, the Charger Mighty Mites took on the Central Valley Jr. Falcons. It was a competition against equals, as they battled to a tie. The two Mighty Mite teams played aggressively on both sides of the ball, all the way to the end of the fourth quarter. The hard to take down Skylar “The Wreckn’ Ball” Conrad scored another touchdown for the season as did Jake “The Snake” Peterson. Defensively all the Charger Mighty Mites played at their best. Devon Applewhite made impressive tackles, as did Wesley Ward. Many fumbles were caused by the Charger defense making for a very exciting fourth quarter. We have one more game left against the Corning Lions this next Saturday at 8:45 am. (more…)

The Yreka Chargers Mighty Mite defense was at its optimum this past Saturday against the Willows Coyotes. The Coyotes barely had a chance to get off the fifty yard line against the Charger defensive line of Wesley Ward, Travis Arwood, Skylar Conrad, Antonio Fernandez and Randall (RV) Hughes. Devon Applewhite had an outstanding tackle in the backfield as did Wesley Ward and Hughes.

Skylar “The Wreckn’ Ball” Conrad ran for two touchdowns in the second quarter, right through the Coyote defense. Donovan Wilson also did a good job stepping in as center. Ward had a very exciting 15-yard run followed by an impressive 25-yard run by Jai Case. All of the positive yardage and touchdowns gained by the Yreka Chargers could not have been accomplished without the offensive efforts of Jake Peterson, Earl Croy Jr., Travis Hedin and Arwood. Arwood was an essential blocker by constantly driving the opponent down the field and opening up holes. (more…)

It was another exciting Saturday for the Yreka Chargers Mighty Mites. They were well prepared to battle the Anderson team. This week the Yreka Charger Mighty Mites showed how much they have developed into a cohesive team, as every Mighty Mite gave it their all, both offensively and defensively.

Quarterback Skylar Conrad had the most impressive play of the game. Breaking at least three tackles, Conrad managed to reach the end zone while dragging two Anderson Mighty Mites with him for the touchdown. That touchdown was by far the hardest earned touchdown of the season. If you haven’t made it to a Yreka Chargers Mighty Mite game this season, there are still two home games left! Come check us out!

Travis Hedin and Titus Christy both had some good tackles, while Jai Case provided his team with a few assisted tackles.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Jr. Cougars had the ball and for a moment it looked as if they were off to a good start. But the Yreka Chargers defense stepped it up and held the Cougars at the goal line, never letting them break through. Jake Peterson, Skylar Conrad, Travis Arwood, Travis Hedin, Titus Christy, Davon Ruiz, Wesley Ward, Randall Hughes and Devon Applewhite all made great defensive plays throughout the Mighty Mite game.
