Oct. 21, 2005

PUNXSUTAWNEY – Brookville scored the first 25 points of the third quarter to break open an 8-point halftime lead on its way to a 33-14 win over Punxsutawney in the "Battle for the Route 36 Trophy" Friday night in Punxsutawney.

Five different Raiders (4-4 overall, 2-3 D9 League) scored on the night with the Brookville defense accounting for nine points (a safety and a fumble return for a touchdown).

Max Kutz had a big night for Brookville rushing 11 times for 112 yards and a touchdown. He became the first Raider to rush for over 100 yards in a regular-season game since Nick Heschke rushed for 138 in Week 9 of the 2003 season (Brookville had three 100-yard rushers in the playoffs last season). He is also the first Brookville running back to go over 100 yards in the regular season since Matt Gilbert did it with 122 yards in Week 8 2002. Heschke was the quarterback in 2003.

Matt Berfield added 10 carries for 67 yards and a score, while Korey Brownlee was 3 of 6 passing for 59 yards and a 27-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Ross (3 catches, 59 yards).

Joe Galbraith (12-yard run) and Brett Mohney (15-yard fumble return) also scored for Brookville, whose first points came on a safety late in the first quarter.

Dustin Dubensky, making his first appearance at QB for Punxsy (0-8, 0-4) after suffering an injury before the season, was 12 of 20 passing for 166 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT. He is the third Chucks quarterback to throw for over 150 yards in a game this season joining Zach Smith and Pat McKee. Smith saw action as well going 2 of 7 for 13 yards.

Mike Smiley caught four passes for 58 yards, while Austin Furman had three for 53 and Jeremy Falgout 3 for 43 for Punxsy. Furman caught a 46-yard TD pass in the fourth quarter.

David Pisano led the Chucks running game with five carries for 21 yards and a 23-yard TD run. Dubensky ran seven times for 17 yards, as Punxsy was held to 18 yards rushing on 20 attempts.
