WEST COLUMBIA — For the second time this season, the Columbia Roughnecks will meet the Houston Kashmere Rams.
The Roughnecks beat up on the Rams, 18-7, for homecoming Sept. 21. Now comes the real test in the Division II Class 3A Region III bi-district playoffs at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Herman A. Barnett Stadium in Houston.
Columbia’s last two seasons have finished in the state semifinals. The Roughnecks have an opportunity to top that starting with the Rams.

Senior running back Floyd Bess (155 attempts, 1,246 rushing yards, 14 TDs) has made his mark in the playoffs and is hoping to continue that trend in his final season. Another senior, Broderick Thomas (113-727, 11 TDs) has also run the ball well, as has quarterback Willis Johnson (52-357, six TDs).

Thomas was the leading rusher in the first meeting with Kashmere, going for 87 yards and a couple of touchdowns.

Under center, Johnson (31 completions, 527 yards, four TDs) has progressed through the season but still has thrown more interceptions (eight) than touchdowns. Though the offense didn’t play as well as they wanted in that earlier meeting with the Rams, it was the defense that stepped up.

Columbia held Kashmere to 32 yards of total offense that night, and if not for a 40-yard pass completion, that total could have been negative. Defensively, the Roughnecks are giving up 172 yards per game.

The Rams (7-3) regrouped and went on to tie for the District 23-3A title with Houston Yates. Kashmere comes into the bi-district round with an offense averaging 247.4 yards a game with most of it coming through the air (1,676 passing yards).

Quarterback Deyandre Moody led the district with 1,349 passing yards on 82 completions and 21 touchdowns. His completed 58 percent of passes and threw seven interceptions on 141 attempts.

A trio of receivers had 20 or more catches, with Joshua Jacobs (37-740 yards, 13 TDs) leading the way. Paul Banks (20-412, nine TDs) and D’Andre Land (20-282, TD) also were frequent targets for Moody.

The run game is led by Donyel Glaspie (122 attempts, 634 yards, 5.20 per carry, five TDs), who was the only Ram runner in the top 15 in rushing in the district. Kashmere was second in district with the most fumbles with 46 but lost only 18 of them.

Defensively, the Rams led the district by allowing just 172.5 yards a game. In 10 games, Kashmere held opponents to 736 rushing yards and 989 passing yards.

The Rams led the district with 13 interceptions, with Banks and Jacobs each getting five. Ronnie Cezar also had a couple of picks.

After losing to the Roughnecks, the Rams went 6-1 the rest of the way, losing only to Houston Jones (42-29).

In the area round, either No. 4 ranked West Orange Stark or Cleveland awaits the winner.

From The Facts...

Columbia rolls over Kashmere

Roughnecks struggle on offense before breaking game open with big plays.

By JOEL LUNA | Posted: Saturday, November 17, 2012 2:00 am
HOUSTON — In the playoffs, it doesn’t have to be pretty, and for Columbia it wasn’t. But it still was more than enough for the 33-6 win Friday night at Barnett Stadium.
The Class 3A Region bi-district matchup with Houston Kashmere was a replay of their contest in September when the Roughnecks pulled out an 18-7 win.

In this playoff game, things just weren’t clicking offensively for the Roughnecks (8-3).

“It really doesn’t matter as long as you score one more than they do,” a relieved Columbia coach Randy Lynch said after the long night. “You know offensively we struggled and we had that initial first drive and drove it down the field and you are sitting first down at the four and then you don’t execute well. We try a field goal and we miss it and after that we struggled.”

The win moves Columbia (8-3) into the area round against No. 4 ranked West Orange Stark, which blanked Cleveland 57-0. Columbia and West Orange Stark are expected to play at 6 p.m. Friday at Channelview’s Ray Maddry Memorial Stadium.

Columbia and the Rams almost played to an identical score as when they faced each other in September as the Roughnecks were leading 18-6 up until about five minutes remaining in the game, when Devin Woodard intercepted Deyandry Moody and returned it 47 yards for a touchdown. After the extra point, the Roughnecks finally had breathing room, 26-6.

“It was just one of those games where we have to execute better offensively,” Lynch said. “We were inside the 10-yard line twice or three times, and we just have to put points on the board. We came away with nothing in those three series and it is a concern.”

After Jacob Komer’s 22-yard field goal miss the ’Necks got the ball back with 1:30 left in the first period and this time they hit paydirt. Quarterback Willis Johnson found Devin Woodard for a 44-yard hookup score on fourth down and five. Then Jerry Wayne Cotten scored the two-point conversion on a pass from Broderick Thomas for an 8-0 lead.

But the ’Neck offense fizzled, gaining just 3 yards on its next four possessions.

In the meantime, the Rams took advantage of an 8-yard punt by Coleman Roark, taking over at the Roughneck 30-yard line with 1:34 left before halftime.

After a 14-yard completion by Moody to D’Andre Land, Moody found Joshua Jacobs in the end zone on the next play from the 16 to put the Rams on the board.

The Rams tried a two-point conversion, but the Roughneck defense stuffed the play for a loss.

Kashmere’s offense wasn’t that effective either, but the Roughneck defense had a lot to do with that. Kashmere was held to 14 yards of offense and two first downs in the first 24 minutes of play.

In the second half, Thomas, a senior, took matters into his own hands for the Roughnecks as he ran for 122 yards on just 11 carries. Seventy-one yards of that came on one play with 2:48 left in the third quarter when he took a handoff from Johnson and rambled up the middle untouched all the way into the end zone. After Greg Gomez’s extra point, Columbia led 18-6.

“I just kind of looked at him and talked to him at halftime and he is a powerful back for us,” Lynch said of Thomas. “Broderick just came through for us offensively and defensively.”

The Roughneck defense again plugged up most of the Rams offense in the second half with their longest run from scrimmage, a 13-yard scamper by Donyel Glaspie. But the ’Necks had three interceptions and a fumble recovery in that second half to hold Kashmere to 40 total yards of offense in those final two quarters.

Kashmere winds up the season at 7-4.
