Source: Greeley Tribune, Colo.self storageNov. 03--KERSEY -- Ridge View Academy's football roster Saturday featured only last names and first initials.Even before their Class 2A state football debut against powerhouse Platte Valley, Rams coaches politely passed on an opportunity to offer first names for public address purposes.During the ensuing 48 minutes, the third-seeded Broncos weren't about to let Ridge View make a name for itself in Platte Valley's jam-packed stadium.In fact, the Broncos made sure the No. 14 Rams remained relatively anonymous in Platte Valley's emphatic 49-0 win in the first round of the playoffs.Broncos coach Troy Hoffman, described the performance as "just about perfect.""This is by far the best performance, as a varsity team, that we've had in my 12 years here," he said. "I'm so proud of them. ... Our kids were just flying all over the place today."With the win, Platte Valley (8-1) advances to the quarterfinals, in which it will face No. 6 Bennett (8-2) at 1 p.m. Saturday in Kersey.Ridge View (4-5) never threatened, as it took the Broncos all of 14 seconds to put their first eight points on the board.The Rams won the coin toss and deferred. Bad idea.Ridge View's deferral prompted seemingly only half-serious cries from Platte Valley's sideline and fan section to run back the opening kickoff.Broncos junior Kolt McDaniel took the request quite seriously.After Josh Dovenbarger fielded the kick, he faked a handoff to Logan Sitzman and Cameron Maxey, then shuffled the ball to McDaniel, who zig-zagged through the Rams' coverage, 75 yards for a touchdown.McDaniel said the Broncos ran the same play on a kick return in a 23-21 quarterfinals win against Eaton a year ago."If they're not prepared for it, it works beautifully. It's crazy how well it works," McDaniel said. "It was just there. It worked perfectly, the way we wanted it to. I just ran down the sideline and let everybody else block for me."Sitzman -- the Broncos' all-state senior quarterback -- scored two more quick touchdowns in the first quarter, followed by a Caleb Creech 5-yard plunge into the end zone, which put the Broncos up 28-0 with 1 minute, 12 seconds left in the first.By the time Sitzman connected with McDaniel on touchdown passes of 30 and 25 yards during a 3-minute span in the second quarter, Platte Valley had a 42-0 lead and a mercy-rule mandated running clock ... with 7:29 left in the first half."We want to come out and show everybody in the playoffs that we're ready to go, just go out and play the best football we could," Sitzman said. "We played Broncos football today. This is probably the best playoff game I think we've ever had. Everybody did everything we could ask for, and it showed on the scoreboard."Before giving way to backup Tanner Schwindt for the entire second half, Sitzman punctuated his stellar first half with a 1-yard quarterback sneak into the end zone to put the Broncos up 49-0 with 16 seconds left in the second quarter.Before becoming a spectator, Sitzman connected on 7 of 8 passes for 121 yards, two t迷利倉uchdowns and no interceptions, running the ball six times for three touchdowns and 78 yards -- including an electric 52-yarder midway through the first.As stellar as the Sitzman-led offense was, the Broncos' defense was at least as impressive.Even though Platte Valley ran just 13 plays in the second half, with the clock running, the yardage differential between the two teams was staggering.The Broncos had 309 total yards compared to minus-1 on 33 total offensive plays for Ridge View.In fact, the Rams didn't have a first down until there was less than 4 minutes left in the game.With its backups playing virtually the entire second half, Platte Valley fumbled and Ridge View recovered on the Broncos' 26 with 4:40 left.On a pair of plays, the Rams advanced to the 6. During the next four plays, Ridge View wasn't able to punch the ball in, as Platte Valley's reserves had a goal line stand to clinch the shutout.Senior linebacker/wingback Jake Smith, who is one of the Broncos' leaders on defense, was among the players and coaches who erupted from the sidelines as Platte Valley's youngsters denied the Rams, just inches shy of the goal line."They understood, too, going into the game that they needed to preserve that shutout," Smith said. "Everybody knows, we're all about the defense. ... That's the most dominant game I've ever been a part of in the postseason."RVHS 0 0 0 0 -- 0PVHS 28 21 0 0 -- 49First quarterPVHS -- Kolt McDaniel 75 kick return (Logan Sitzman run) 11:44.
