NOTES
This will be an abbreviated recap, but look for a season wrap-up post sometime this weekend.
- The loss was the first time Clearfield had been shutout since a 61-0 loss in the state playoffs to Perry in 2002. The Bison had scored in 142 consecutive games since that loss.
- Clearfield’s 34 yards rushing was the fewest the team had in a game since the 2007 District 9 championship game, a 30-14 loss to St. Marys. In that game, the Bison rushed 25 times for just 18 yards.
- The 50 total yards gained by the Bison are the fewest by the program since the 1987 team gained just 22 total yards in a 28-0 loss to Punxsutawney.
- Despite the loss, the 2014 season saw a number of impressive statistical performances, especially by the Clearfield defense. It surrendered fewer than 18 points per game for the fifth consecutive year and held opponents to 89.9 yards rushing per game. Three opponents failed to reach 100 total yards and six converted fewer than 10 first downs. The Bison also recorded 36.5 sacks and picked off 11 passes.
- Offensively, Clearfield ran for 2,733 yards and threw for another 1,101, giving the team an average of 319.5 total yards per game. The Bison averaged 32.5 points per game by running for 38 touchdowns and throwing for 14 more. The team averaged 5.48 yards on its exactly 700 plays in 2014.
- Somerset now moves on to face District 4 champion Selinsgrove. The winner of that game will take on the winner of Bethlehem Catholic and Crestwood for the right to move into the Eastern Final.
