The Bison continued their winning streak against the Rams and have now won all 8 meetings between the two schools.  Clearfield has now thrown for at least 100 yards in each of its first two games for the first time since 2010 and the team’s two-game total of 426 yards passing is the program’s most through the first two games since 2009 (486 yards).  The Bison also avoided the school’s first 0-2 start since the 2003 season and will try to get to 2-1 in the 2014 home opener next Friday against Central.

  • Clearfield’s first shutout of the 2014 season is the program’s first since the 2012 District 9 title game against Bradford (49-0).  A list of Clearfield’s past 10 shutouts before Friday’s game with Penns Valley:
    • vs. Bradford, 2012 (49-0)
    • vs. Penns Valley, 2012 (47-0)
    • vs. Bellefonte, 2011 (44-0)
    • vs. Huntingdon, 2010 (12-0)
    • vs. Bellefonte, 2010 (34-0)

    • vs. St. Marys, 2004 (42-0)
    • vs. Indian Valley, 2004 (38-0)
  • Friday was also the 23rd time since the start of the 2010 season (55 games) that the Bison held their opponent to under 200 yards of total offense.
  • Ryan Lezzer now has 9 catches for 236 yards and 3 TDs through the first two games of 2014.  Over the course of 14 games played as a freshman last year, he had 10 catches for 237 yards and 3 TDs.
  • Seth Caldwell now sits at 897 career rushing yards, putting him just 103 yards away from being the 30th player in school history to total 1,000 career rushing yards.
  • Two notes that were missed last week:
    • Jake Wingate’s interception against Keyser put him in a three-way tie for 6th on the school’s career list.  His 9 career interceptions tie him with Todd Shaw (1999-2002) and Dennis Yohe (1995-1997).
    • Erik Sellers had 15 tackles in the loss to the Golden Tornado, a total that ties him for 8th on the school’s single-game list.  Dennis Yohe (1997), Jeremy Irwin (1999), Adam Jury (2006), and Jack Mellgard (2009) each also had 15 tackles in one game.
