Landon Liddle accounted for four touchdowns as the DuBois Beaver Junior High cruised to the 36-6 victory over the Karns City Gremlin Junior High at Mansell Stadium in DuBois Thursday afternoon.

The undefeated Beaver eleven are big and fast and very skilled for a junior high football team.  Quarterback Landon Liddle is one of the leaders and is a name that may be heard around the state someday in high school along with some of his mates.

After Karns City had the ball for over four minutes of the eight minute quarter they play at the junior high level, DuBois used 7 plays to go 55 yards, scoring on a Liddle to Darin Herzing 10-yard toss.  Roman Brigger booted his first of four PATs to give the Beavers a 7-0 lead.

In the second quarter, DuBois scored early on a Liddle 15-yard run to cap a 3-play 48-yard possession.  Late in the half the Gremlins stopped DuBois at the KC three.  On the first play, Karns City fumbled but recovered it in their end zone which resulted in a safety for DuBois with 38 seconds left.  After the free kick it took the Beavers all of two plays to score.  Liddle found Levi Smith with the 39-yard scoring pass with 15 seconds remaining and DuBois entered the intermission leading 23-0.

Liddle returned the second half kickoff approximately 87 yards for his fourth accounted for TD of the afternoon.  DuBois finished off their scoring when Jordan Lockett found a hole in the line and ran 15 yards to pay dirt.  That put the Beavers up 36-0 with a bit over 5 minutes left in the third quarter.

Karns City scored their lone touchdown late when Jaxen Johnston barged in on a 6-yard run.

Liddle was 11 of 12 passing for 168 yards and 2 touchdowns.  He completed at least two passes to five different receivers.  He also intercepted two passes on defense.

DuBois has had first half leads in their 6 games of 28-0, 28-0, 35-0, 35-0, 30-0, and 23-0.
