English Station Sports Newsletter 

The Centurion football team entered Friday 

night’s game as 10-point underdogs, but made 

a statement to the Bardstown Tigers, District 4 

and the state of Kentucky, that the CAL Centurion 

is no dog and an army of Centurions is a 

force to be feared. CAL handed the Tigers 

their first loss of the season, advancing a game 

closer to claiming another District 4 championship.

The game began with hard hits in the trenches as Chad Meredith and John 

Popovich met Bardstown runners at the line of scrimmage, turning forward 

progress into hasty retreat. Six plays into the first drive, Popovich took the 

ball from the district’s top-ranked offense with a fumble recovery. 

The CAL offense then flexed its muscle 

with Nick Payne following a spirited 

offensive line into the open field where 

his quick moves escaped downfield defenders 

for the first touchdown of the game. Nathan Bader followed with a 

perfect extra point kick, bringing the score to 7-0 early in the first quarter. 

After another suffocating CAL defensive series, the offense took to the 

air. Nathan Christmas connected with Chad Lewellyn on a 36-yard pass, 

followed by a 48-yard touchdown aided by Lewellyn’s quick footwork after 

the catch. 

Lewellyn and Payne both added second quarter receiving and rushing 

touchdowns respectively, pushing the score to 27-0 with one final Bardstown 

possession of the first half. Zach Passafiume closed the first half 

with a 12-yard tackle for a Bardstown loss, capping two quarters of a defensive 

statement led by senior Chad Meredith. 

The second half turned to special teams to make a statement when Lewellyn 

took the kick-off 85 yards for a touchdown. Austin Kurnick took a punt 

return later in the half 80 yards for a touchdown that, after Bader’s successful 

extra point, put CAL up 41-0: two rushing TD’s; two passing TD’s; 

two special teams TD’s. 

Bardstown’s top ranked offense turned the ball over twice, once to 

Popovich and another time to Blake Chelf on a fumble. Chelf, Meredith 

and Rider Sparrow accounted for 10 or more tackles each, holding the Tigers’ 

offense to only a touchdown with seven seconds to go in the 

game. The final score: CAL 41 Bardstown 6. 

CAL takes this momentum into a game Friday in which DeSales is 

currently ranked higher, but the players and the fans know that these Centurions are full of fight and are dangerous.

CAL 2 vs Nelson County 0 

Following Monday evening’s rainout game at Oldham County, the Lady Centurions 

(9-4-5) hosted Region 5 leader, Nelson County HS (12-6-0), on Tuesday, 

October 2 at the English Station Campus. Dominating play on both ends of the 

field, CAL marched to a convincing 2-0 victory with goals by Kenzie Dannelly 

and Kendall Moore; coupled by the outstanding goal keeping of Corinne 

Warlick and Molly Andres who recorded their 5 th shutout of the season. 

CAL spread the field early in the opening half and had multiple opportunities 

to score. Shots by Kenzie Dannelly, Kate Joss and Haleigh Fortuna were 

turned aside by the Nelson County keeper who recorded seven saves by 

halftime. Sydney Mathis, Lindsay Dunn, and Faith Shepherd found room 

to drive the ball down the wings for numerous crosses into the box, pinning 

the Nelson County defenders deep in their own zone for most of the half. 

The defense, led by Clare Andres, Annie Beanblossom, Kendall 

Moore and Laura English were tested early, as Nelson County tried repeatedly to slip there speedy forwards 

behind the back line. Midfielders Catherine Collins, Sarah Quinton, and Meg Mintman battled in the middle 

to disrupt Nelson County’s passing lanes and thwart their attempt to play the ball over top of the Lady 

Centurion defense. 

With 6:26 remaining in the half, Kenzie Dannelly beat two Nelson County defenders on the baseline and 

fired a low hard shot that bounded off of the keeper, giving CAL a 1-0 lead. The half ended with CAL clearly 

in charge of the field but with only a slim scoring advantage. 

CAL started the 2 nd half with a strong offensive effort, and with 33:42 

left, Kenzie Dannelly crushed a shot that hit the crossbar. Less than two 

minutes later, at the 31:23 mark, Kendall Moore pushed up from her defensive 

wing position and fired a shot from just outside the 18-yard line that 

beat the Nelson County keeper for a 2-0 CAL lead. Moore’s goal sealed the 

victory for the Lady Centurions; the 9 th of the season. (continued on next page)

CAL 9 vs KCD 1 – SENIOR NIGHT 

The Lady Centurions rode to an easy 9-1 victory 

over Kentucky Country Day, on an emotional 

Thursday evening match at English Station, as the 

players and fans paid tribute to the five Seniors 

who have led CAL to back-to-back Region Championships. 

Pre-game ceremonies for Clare Andres, 

Catherine Collins, Kate Joss, Kendall 

Moore, and Taylor Smith, sponsored by the junior class parents, set a new 

standard for excellence and provide players, friends and families with a lifetime of 

lasting memories. 

Kate Joss, honored the next day as CAL’s 2012 

Homecoming Queen, got the squad off to a 

quick start volleying in a perfect cross 

from Syndey Mathis in the first 3 minutes of 

the half, and then added her second of three 

goals at the 28:47 mark for a 2-0 lead. Also 

adding first half goals wereKenzie Dannelly 

and Haleigh Fortuna. With 18:32 still left in 

the period, CAL had a commanding 5-0 lead. 

Senior Night also saw the return of injured senior All-State goalie, Taylor Smith, who 

was allowed a 15 second “cameo” appearance to begin the game to the delight of her 

adoring teammates and fans. Taylor has continued to make great progress in rehabilitating 

her shoulder and is expected to return to the field for her Club team in late fall. 

The second half started with the Lady Centurions 

still on the attack. Senior Clare Andres scored in 

the first 30 seconds of the half and followed up with 

her second goal less than 90 seconds later for a 7-0 CAL lead. Three minutes later, 

with 33:38 remaining in the half, senior Catherine Collins scored on a low shot into 

the left corner for a 8-0 advantage. Rounding out the scoring for the evening was 

freshmen Allie Blackburn who scored the 9 th and final CAL goal of the evening.

SENIORS HONORED AND VICTORIES WON IN THE BATTLES OF LEXINGTON! 

This week the Centurions took on Lexington Catholic at home, and then made a road trip to Lexington 

Christian. Prior to the Tuesday night match, CAL also honored its two seniors, Miranda 

Hunley and Hannah Stanfield, as well as five seniors from Lexington Catholic. These ladies 

will, no doubt, be missed. 

Miranda, daughter of Monte and Donna Hundley, has 

attended CAL since Kindergarten and played volleyball 

since elementary school. Says Coach Patty Ernst, “she has been a pleasure to 

coach because she always ‘keeps it real.’ She encourages her teammates on and off 

the court. Miranda’s been a great addition to our team this year as she adds a lot of fire 

power to the outside hitting position.” Her parents would like her to know, “it will be 

hard not seeing you on the court as part of the CAL volleyball team and no longer leading 

the life of volleyball parents.” Dad asks, “What will we do with all our time” 

Though she’s not yet chosen a college, Miranda intends to major in Biblical studies. 

Hannah, daughter of Darin and Melissa Stanfield, has attended CAL since the 3 rd grade 

and has played volleyball the entire time. Says Coach Patty Ernst, “she always makes 

things entertaining and has something ‘goofy’ to add when the situation becomes too 

intense. Hannah is a hard-working athlete with a heart for the game, and she strives to 

get better each day.” Her parents would like her to know, 

“we are certainly proud of the volleyball player you have become, but the Light that 

shines from within by your heart is what makes us most proud. Seventeen years ago, 

God decided to send you to challenge us to become more committed and more like 

HIM. You often have shown us the way by your sweet, loving, forgiving, gracious, merciful spirit! We love you! WOODA, 

WOODA, WOODA!” P.S. Dad says, “you have to see it, you have to find the ball!” Hannah intends to major in elementary education, 

but has yet to pick her college. 

The bittersweet Senior Night was made complete with a best two of three match against Lexington 

Catholic. CAL took the first set convincingly, 25-10. The score was tied nine times in 

set 2, but Lexington Catholic prevailed, 25-22. In set three, Lexington Catholic took the early 

lead, but CAL was able to tie at point 16 and go on to win the set and match, 25-22. 


CAL then took a road trip to Lexington Thursday night, where the Lexington Christian Eagles 

proved to be an equally-matched rival. Reminiscent of Tuesday, the Eagles honored their four 


seniors as well as Hannah and Miranda. In game play, CAL appeared to be the stronger team 

in sets one and two, winning easily, 25-18, 25-19. In set three, the Eagles turned it on, however. Playing tricks with their deep 

court serves and strong blocks and kills by their powerful seniors, the Eagles won the set 25-19, resulting in a fourth game. Game 



four was a point-for-point nail biter that went down to a tie score 23-23. In a very apropos moment, Hannah 

was up to make the final clutch serve, and she nailed it. With an exclamation point kill from Caroline Rassenfoss, 

the regular season of play ended in two future victories CAL families, for the can CAL check Varsity CAL sports’ team. scores LIVE from their iPhone anytime from anywhere.

How did you come to CAL I started coaching intramural flag football, then moved up to coaching middle 

school basketball and football. My son got a cyst on his brain and football was not longer an option. He 

wanted to find a fall sport to play so I decided to coach him in golf. 

What motivates you to coach The kids by far and away. I get more out of it than they do. It’s great to impact 

the lives of young people in a world that constantly pulls them in the wrong direction. 

How do you use golf to disciple your players Golf is a great life teacher. There is a tremendous amount of 

integrity involved in an individual sport that is played in a team format. You have to lift up and support teammates 

even when you don’t shoot a good round. You also have five hours to spend with your competitors. 

We talk to our players about impacting others for Jesus during that time. 

What are your passions in ministry I have a heart for men’s ministry and discipling young men. I once 

thought faith was an individual thing. I’ve concluded that men need other men to challenge, guide, and encourage 

each other. You can’t do it on your own. 

What spiritual lessons can be taught or learned through golf One mistake in a round doesn’t define who you 

are as a player. You are not going to have the best day every time you go out there. We all make mistakes 

but as long as you remain Christ centered and look to God’s Word you are going to be OK. 


How would you spend your ideal day with your family On the slopes skiing or snowboarding.

Miranda is a great athlete. She has the 

potential to continue to do great things 

both in her last year in high school and 

further in life. She has been a pleasure to 

coach because she always “keeps it real.” 

She encourages her teammates on and off

Hannah is a very hard working athlete. She has a

she always makes things entertaining! She 

always has something “goofy” to add when the situation 

becomes too intense. Hannah has the ability 

to encourage those around her, even if or when

Favorite Bible Verse: Philippians 1:21-23 

College: Bellarmine University 

Major: Pre-Med 

Jonathan has a positive attitude, a strong work ethic, and 

knows how to rob other players of the ball. He's the type of 

player that will keep making runs forward, then running back 

to recover -- even when he doesn't get the ball -- because he 

realizes somebody needs to do it and he's generally a great 

defender. Because of his zeal and determination, we know he'll 

go far in whatever.

Favorite Bible Verse: 2 Timothy 1:11-12 


Major: Chemical Engineering and pre-Med 

God has gifted Tommy with tenacity, courage and a smooth 

gazelle-like stride. He's like a soldier: He will lay down his life 

to prevent an attacker from getting by him. Like a famous 

American football coach, he has a "quiet strength." But as one 

or our two permanent captains, we were a better team because 

of that strength, especially as he became more and 

more communicative in the past couple of years. He has 

helped throughout his high school career with our summer 

soccer camp and, in addition, we've already offered him a job 

at Team Expansion when he gets out of college. Tommy, come 

quickly. :-)

Favorite Bible Verse: James 1:19-21 


Major: Business 

It's a joy to watch Cam. When he's on, he's on. He'll somehow 

ricochet the ball off the opponent’s shin-guards, and 

then whip it up to the far post upper "V," completely losing a 

line of defenders. Yes, sometimes I wonder how he makes his 

magic, but I'm always glad -- unless it's during scrimmage, 

against me while I'm defending. Then I resent his speed, 

shooting ability, and what always appears to be luck. Fortunately, 

more often than not, he's whipping balls past his opponents 

and not his coach.

Favorite Bible Verse: Hebrews 11:1 

College: University of Louisville 

Major: Business and Finance 

Michael also served as one of our two permanent captains and 

he is a solid, consistent leader. In addition, he possesses a unique 

ability to be sensitive beyond the norm. As the team drives away, 

Michael will always be the one to roll down his window and say, 

"Coach, the whole team is going to Buffalo Wild Wings. Want to 

join us" He sees the entire playing field of life, just like he sees it 

all from his position as central defender. And in life, as well as 

soccer, he gives his all to whatever he does. I count him as more 

than a team member. He's also a great friend to everyone. 

Name: Riley Hays 

Parents: Bill and Lee Hays 

Grades attended at CAL: 10-12 


Favorite Bible Verse: Galatians 2:20 


Major: Undecided 

Riley has boundless energy: he can run forever. He can also put 

the ball in the back of the net, play center or outside mid, and 

defend, as well. In other words, we could play him in every 

field position. His versatility helped him not only on our team, 

but it will also help him throughout life... because he is a real 

servant heart. 

Name: Matthew Leavitt 

Parents: Todd and Claudia Leavitt 



Favorite Bible Verse: Matthew 5:10 

College: Purdue 

Major: Engineering 

Goalkeepers have to be a little bit crazy to do what they do --and 

Matt fits the bill well. Seriously, who wants to intentionally throw 

himself on the ground, headlong into the path of an onrushing 

attacker, but that’s exactly what Matt did for us time after time. 

His physical size was intimidating, and his core strength also 

served him well. What's more, because he knew the team needed 

him to step up to the plate big-time, he took the initiative to 

get advanced goalkeeper training at camps, clinic and club. And 

we have been a better team because of it.

Favorite Bible Verse: Philippians 1:21 

College: Biola University, Liberty University, University of Kentucky 

Major: Biblical Studies or Missions 

Jake plays soccer just like he plays hockey: He's "all in." The crazy 

thing is, he hadn't even played soccer until his junior year. However, 

anyone who has watched him play can't help but notice the 

way he can change the course of a game, just by the work rate, 

hustle, and electricity he brings to the field. We would immediately 

call for a Jake-injection when the opponent took the momentum 

because Jake could usually find a way to reverse it. Whether he's 

serving in Akron or Africa, he'll do the same thing in the game of life 

as well, regardless of what he tackles -- and we hope he tackles 

missions.

Favorite Bible Verse: John 3:16 

College: University of Illinois 


Sheldon came into the season a few weeks behind his teammates, 

but that did not stop him from working hard and earning 

his playing time. He brings a dynamic burst on the field 

where his style of play compliments his teammates and his 

work ethic is second to none. Sheldon impresses by analyzing 

the opponent and making enlightening observations for the 

team to adjust and succeed. He may have a tender spirit, but 

his tenacity on the field speaks for himself. His drive is to never 

give up on the ball and I know that will translate off the field. He 

will set goals for himself in life and not settle for anything less 

than achieving his goals.

6:14, Psalm 73:26 



Every time Mason would do on of his stepovers or 

other "moves," several of us would ask, "Where 

does he get those" But, Mason must be a fast 

learner, because he definitely did "get it." He's 

quick, street-smart, and he never gives up. Those 

traits will help him regardless of what job he takes

CAL JV Volleyball Ends Season With Two More Victories 

They say that the 3 rd time is a charm. That wasn’t the case for the Centurions when facing Catholic school rivals 

this year, but on the 4 th attempt they finally came out on top. CAL defeated Lexington Catholic on Tuesday 

in two sets (21-17 & 21-14). The match was never in doubt with several hitters racking up multiple Kills. 

A great effort was made by all. Thursday the JV squad traveled to Lexington for a season finale versus LCA 

(Lexington Christian Academy). CAL easily defeated the Eagles in 2 sets capping off a victorious season. 

Their final record was 11 Wins and 5 Losses. Great job girls! 

CAL VS OLDHAM COUNTY

CAL 8TH GRADE GIRLS FIELD HOCKEY CONTINUES WINNING WAYS! 

CAL 3 - Meyzeek 0 

This was a second round tournament game at CAL and the 8th grade girls did not disappoint. They jumped 

on Meyzeek quickly with a goal from Taylor Curran early in the game. At halftime, the lady Centurions held 

onto their 1-0 lead - in large part due to very Good goalie play by Meyzeek. 

In the second half CAL took control with goals by Allie grace Joyner and Ella Loyd. Katie Jenkins had a great 

backhand assist across the circle to Ella for the final goal in route to the 3-0 win…just how Coach Cooper and 

Coach Joyner drew it up. 

The CAL defense deserves a shout out for continuing their dominance. They have still only given up 1 goal 

all year.

SKILLFUL STICKS, SUFFOCATING STOPS, & SOLID SCORES SEND SEVENTH GRADE 

SQUAD TO CITY SEMIS! 

CAL’s 7th Grade Field Hockey squad opened the post season tournament with an 

impressive team effort against Noe Middle School. Steady, methodical attacks 

and a stifling defense led to a 6-0 win, and a slot in the City’s Final Four against 

Kammerrer. 

Once again last Thursday afternoon, CAL’s defenders and mid-fielders repelled 

every attempted advance by the opposing attackers, and CAL’s relentless offensive 

pressure kept most of the game in or around CAL’s scoring circle. Crisp 

passing between forwards led to numerous scoring chances, with a half dozen 

resulting in goals. 

On defense, goalie Sam Minrath never 

faced a Noe shot, and CAL’s defenders never gave up a penalty corner 

chance to Noe. CAL’s stingy defense was led on the point by Tori 

Haygood and Mackenzie Mellen, with Emily Warlick also contributing 

from the back line. 

CAL’s six goals included two outside drives, two scrambles, and two 

breakaways. The outside scoring drives were by Claire Thomas on a 

feed from Jamie Wright, and Wright on a penalty corner insert 

from Rachel Proffit. The scrambles included Elise Stivers cleaning up 

on a corner play; and Wright and Thomas teaming up for the game’s opening goal. The breakaway goals featured 

Alex Walker feeding a crisp pass to Stivers, who drove it home; and Sloan Redding with a nifty crossing 

feed to Anna Lee Holland for the score! 

Most impressive in this game was the solid team play by all of CAL’s 

girls. The passing and tackling skills, offensive and defensive positioning, 

and on-field communication added up to one of the best displays of 

teamwork this year. Another effort like last week’s will be needed on 

Friday night, when CAL faces a tough and improving Kammerrer squad 

on their home View field. CAL At High stake School is a berth in sports the City LIVE, Finals! 




Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you 

know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. James 1:2-3 NLT

CENTURIONS VS PATRIOTS 

CAL defense showed up in a big way on Saturday, October 6 th against the Patriots at Seneca High School. 

Big blocking and tackling by our defense impressed the fans from start to finish. After a Patriot kick off and 

an unsuccessful attempt by CAL the Patriots had a strong run at the goal early in the game. Impressive tackles 

by Charles Austin Sams and Nic Geary offered resistance, but the Patriots pushed through for an early 

touchdown in the 1 st quarter with a completed pass for the extra point. The score was Patriots 7, CAL 0. A 

second attempt at goal resulted in a 21 yard CAL punt to the 30 yard line by Elijah Smith. Back on defense 

CAL had TWO sacks by Luke Chambers and Justin Howes for a total loss of 9 yards and the Patriots turned 

the ball over on a loss of downs. A quick interception had CAL back on defense where we held the Patriots 

for another turnover on downs. Offense had a decent push down the field with rushing yards by Smith, Sams, 

Palumbino, and Paulson but turned the ball over on loss of downs. Our defense held strong with tackles by 

Sams, Graham, Crenshaw, Chambers, and Paulson. At the end of the half it was still Patriots 7, CAL 0. 

Our offense struggled against the Patriot’s defense in the 2 nd half, but we did gain rushing yards with Elijah 

Smith and Anthony Palumbino. On defense we had an exciting interception and impressive rush down the 

field for an almost TD by Charles Austin Sams, but there was interference called on the play. Another QB 

sack by Harrison Zimmerer with a 6 yard loss and tackles by Crenshaw, Griffin, Hornback, and McKinley 

held the Patriots back, but in the last minute of the game the Patriots ran for a touchdown on the 4 th down 

with :59 seconds in the 4 th quarter. CAL stopped the extra point for a final score Patriots 13, CAL 0. 

CAL played a strong game against this excellent team. GO CAL!

OFFENSE EFFECTIVE, DEFENSE OPPORTUNISTIC 

In what would set a a league record for longest...game...ever, at a solid two hours, the 3rd 

and 4th grade football team took on the Louisville Oilers this past Saturday at home. The 

temperatures were cooler but the team stayed hot, despite two consecutive cancellations. 

The Oilers opened the first drive of the game with a 6 yard run. The defense forced a fumble 

on the next play, and after a momentary scramble, their running back ran 51 yards for a 

touch down. After an unsuccessful conversion, the visitors led 6-0 with 7:29 to play in the 

first. 

The first Centurion drive of the game was set up nicely by Joshua Spainhour's 15 yard return. 

On the first play from scrimmage William Paar peeled off a 23 yard run. Tyler Lagastee then 

hit Trey Jorgensen for a 22 yard pass that Jorgensen took to the one. William Paar capped the 

scoring drive from one yard out. With a successful conversion the Centurions went up 7-6 with 

6:32 left in the first. 

The Oilers could not convert on a fourth down pass play that was nearly intercepted by Keaton 

Foster. This would be foreshadowing for three coming Centurion interceptions! 

Cal took over on the Oiler 49. On their second snap Conner Haun ripped off a 26 yard run to the 17. Brandt Babin took it to the 

house on the next play. The conversion was no good but the home team led 12-7 with 1:50 still left in the first. 

Short gain by 31-8 for 26 to 17 

Cal kicked off to the Oilers, but again turned them away on four downs. After a loss on two 

plays, Reece Vincent chased an Oiler out of bounds for a five yard loss, setting up a long 

fourth down. The ensuing pass was picked off by Brock Ruckriegel - who's named would be 

called a lot during the game! 

On the first play after the turnover on downs, Babin broke 3 tackles to grab a 42 yard touchdown! 

the conversion was good and CAL led 19-7. 

The Oilers would score on their next possession making it 19-13. However, the Centurions 

would march right back down the field with big runs by Babin, Lagastee, and the eventual TD by Conner Haun- thanks to superb 

blocking by their offensive line. The conversion would be good, bringing the score to 26-13 halfway through the second quarter - 

which would remain till half. (Yea...long half...) 

CAL would receive to open the second half, but eventually turn it over on downs. 

The Oilers would take over on their own 48, but after a big stop by Ruckriegel, Spainhour picked the next pass for the home team's 

second interception! 


From their own 43, after a modest first down gain, Paar had a run of 20 and 19 behind more solid blocking by the offensive line! 


The drive would stall after a holding penalty and the home team would turn the ball over on downs inside the red zone. 

The score was still 26-13 at the end of the third with the Oilers moving the ball. 

As the final quarter began, Jacob Price recovered HiScore is a an fumble iPhone on application the first snap! that can be downloaded directly to your hand held device. Students, 

it to the parents, 4, where sports Lagastee fans, alumni, would and take it in the keep- 

CAL started in the 9 but a penalty moved

The visitors would manage another score, show but not play-by-play before another announcements, CAL interception and real time by updates. Haun. Keep track of CAL’s high school’s 


Final score 32-19. The Centurions move to 4-2 with big games on Thursday and Saturday this 

week. Both games are at home, with Thursday's kick-off set for 7:30, and Saturday's at 10am.
