The Junior Varsity team was in tough against a very strong and talented Langley team. The Marauders’ squad battled  injuries before the game even started, with starting Center breaking his hand in warm up, adding him to the growing list of players out for the season. The game was decided early with Langley going up 30-0 by half time. In the second half, Pitt showed a lot of heart, as they did not give up, only surrendering one score the whole second half for a final score of 36-0. The season continues with a home game on October 13, against a very strong Holy Cross team.

Friday Night Varsity Game

The Pitt Meadows Marauders began their league schedule by hosting the #2 ranked Mission Roadrunners Friday night. A couple of unlucky bounces saw the visiting Roadrunners jump out to an early 14-0 lead. The first coming off a fumble on offense, and second off a forced fumble on defense but recovered by a Roadrunner receiver who ran it in for a touchdown.

The Roadrunners continued their domination on both sides of the ball in the second quarter mostly through a formidable ground attack and a smothering defense which did not allow a single first down. The lone bright spot for the Marauders was the lockdown defensive secondary led by defensive backs Cole Ram and Rashaun Simonise who effectively shutdown the vaunted Roadrunner passing attack. The score at halftime was 42-0.

The Marauders regrouped defensively in the second half limiting the Roadrunners to just 1 field goal the rest of the way. The Marauders run defense was led by hard-hitting linebackers Jacob Currie and Sergio Cabrera who recorded a game high 6 tackles each. The Marauders had 1 final chance to get on the scoreboard with a late drive in the 4th quarter highlighted by a 20 yard throw by quarterback Joe Schuster to receiver Sebastien Marshall, but were unable to punch it in on the goal line. Final score 45-0.

Win for the Grade 8s!

Final score – 32-28 Pitt Victory.

Jan rushed for 5 touchdowns and ran for one 2 point conversion.  The offense had a strong running attack.  Great defensive tackling by Bailey.  Defense caused several fumbles.  Travis (Quarterback) threw a 30 yd throw for almost a late touchdown to Toby but Toby was tackled at the 1 yard line with no more time remaining in the game.  Even though the score was close, Pitt set the tone and controlled most of the play.

Fundraising meeting

Trivia Night is Friday Oct. 28th.

First home game for Varsity team

After an afternoon and evening full of festivities to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the opening of Pitt Meadows Secondary, several hundred students, alumni, and fans from the community gathered under the lights to complete the celebration by watching their Pitt Meadows Marauders face the Triple-A ranked Mt. Douglas Rams of Victoria. Unfortunately, for the Marauders fans, the Rams scored first off a fumble recovery and never looked back winning by a final score of 48-13. The lone bright spot for the Marauders were 2 80-yard kickoff return touchdowns scored by returner Tanner Hartley. Levon Cuthbert finished with a game-high 8 tackles on defense while Zach Nielsen recorded an interception. The previously scheduled games, Pitt vs Moscrop, and Mt. Doug vs Belmont, were both cancelled by Moscrop and Belmont respectively.
