Big Red opens up playoffs with 34-26 victory over Marlington

November 7, 2009

STEUBENVILLE — It wasn’t a whitewash or even a red one, but it was a win and Big Red will take it. Top-seeded Steubenville held off No. 8 Alliance Marlington, 34-26, Friday night at Harding Stadium to move on to the second round in the OHSAA Division III, Region 11 playoffs. “It was the first step, but it was a baby step,” Big Red coach Reno Saccoccia said after the game. “We still have a long way to go, but we got the first step out of the way.” The score wasn’t indicative of the game. While the Dukes finished just one TD behind the Red, Marlington never posed a legitimate threat. Big Red finished with twice as many first downs, moving the chains 23 times to the Dukes’ nine. Steubenville quarterback Dwight Macon threw for 200 more yards than Marlington. He recorded 228, while the Dukes’ Jesse Carpenter register 28. On the ground, the Dukes beat the Red by just 20 yards. Marlington carried the ball 27 times for 175 yards and four touchdown.
