The Tuscarora Jr. Titans Varsity squad breezed past Gamber 44-18 to move into the Mountain Valley Youth Football League championship game, set for Saturday. Last year, the Titans had defeated Gamber in the championship game.
The Varsity will defend its championship against fellow Mountain Division member Mt. Airy, which nipped Middletown 14-8. The two teams met in the third week of the season, with the Jr. Titans eking out a 6-0 victory.
The Jr. Titans JV team fell one game short of defending their conference title when they lost to Mt. Airy 24-6. The JV team had defeated Mt. Airy 16-8 during the regular season and had won the championship last year by downing Mt. Airy in the finals.
Two Tuscarora Jr. Titans teams are defending champions in the Mountain Valley Youth Football League and both took the first steps in defense of those crowns last weekend by winning their playoff games.

The Pony team lost to Gamber 14-6.
The Jr. Titan team playing in the Frederick Youth Football League finished their season in second place with a 7-2 record, with both losses coming at the hands of undefeated Middletown.
The Tuscarora Jr. Titans Varsity is the defending Mountain Valley Youth Football League champion, so you wouldn’t think that their bona fides needed confirming. But just as the Titans were undefeated in the Mountain Division, Middletown was was waltzing through the Valley Division with an unblemished record.
The two teams met Saturday and the Jr. Titans, now 6-0, are the lone undefeated team after drubbing Middletown 35-14. The Tuscarora JV team (5-1) solidified their position atop the Mountain Division by edging the Middletown JV (5-3) 8-6. The Jr. Titans Pony team (3-3) lost 24-6 to the undefeated Middleton Pony eleven (8-0).
The Jr. Titans have one more set of regularly scheduled games, to be played at Catoctin. Catoctin’s Varsity record is 3-5, the JV is 5-3 and the Pony team is 4-4.
In addition, there are possible additional Varsity make-up games to adjust for two rain-outs. The Varsity is tentatively scheduled to play Boonsboro (3-3) Wednesday and play South Hagerstown (6-1) sometime in the middle of the following week. South Hagerstown sits second to the Jr. Titans in the Mountain Division.
The Jr. Titan Varsity entry in the Frederick Youth Football League trounced the Packers 28-0 last week. They have a record of 5-2, both losses coming at the hands of the Middletown Knights. The Jr. Titans are in third place.
The rains fell in Maryland, causing postponement of the Tuscarora Jr. Titans matches at South Hagerstown. Even though inactive, the Tuscarora JV squad moved to the top of the JV standings in the Mountain Division of the Mountain Valley Youth Football League.
The promotion in the standings came courtesy of arch rival Mt. Airy. Their JV team topped previous leader Catoctin 34-6. Because of two postponements, the Tuscarora JV team has a record of 3-1. Mt. Airy and Catoctin trail with records of 4-2.
The rain wiped out the matchup in the Varsity section between the leaders in the standings. Tuscarora remains on top with a 4-0 mark, while South Hagerstown stays at 4-1.
Next week, The Jr. Titans play at Gamber, a Valley Division club. The Pony team (2-2) meets the 3-2 Gamber team. The JV matchup puts the Jr. Titans, 3-1 and leader in the Mountain Division against a Gamber team than is 4-1 and second in the Valley Division. The undefeated Jr. Titan Varsity plays the 2-3 Gamber Varsity.

For the second consecutive year, the Southern Marin Broncos, from Marin County, California, sent a team to the American Youth Football Division 2 national championships. As documented here, the Bronco Jr. Midgets won the national championship in 2009. The 2010 Jr. Peewees earned third place at the Nationals, losing only to the eventual champions from Shabbona, an Illinois powerhouse.
2010 also marked the first year the Broncos competed in the NorCal Conference. As a Division 2 team, they acquitted themselves well; all five teams earned playoff berths and four of the teams made the finals. That’s a spectacular showing in their first year, considering that some of the teams they faced were from Sacramento, Oakland and San Jose, areas with many more kids to draw from. (Continued below.)
Across the country, the Tuscarora Jr. Titans of Maryland were flexing their muscles in the Mountain Valley Youth Football League. The MVYFL offers three levels of play for kids who are not yet in high school. All three Tuscarora teams earned playoff spots and two teams were crowned champions.
The Titans JV entry swept through its division undefeated. The varsity team lost one game during the regular season before dominating the playoffs. (Continued below.)
