to get a win here today the way the passion ring to get a win tonight and it's one they should walk away with but it's a very important win they've got to get it done by scoring often and holding that goose egg on the play board not because they don't want to feather in new players and new numbers here and there in front of this home crowd but because they are just behind the D seed events and the Massey ratings and they want to have home-field advantage so it's big they need to come out powerful fast from the get-go and dust off anything that any cobwebs that may have come on for the week of rest in the bye week coming off of that loss to the DC Davis two weeks ago a lot to look forward here tonight and of course the passion eyeing up there one hundred and fiftieth game but maybe their

welcome you back to West Allegheny High School where it is the Pittsburgh passion against the Cleveland fusion and the regular season finale here in West Allegheny and back again with Jenkins Matt Fargo with you bringing you the 150th game in Pittsburgh passion history and boy I mean we said it during those the pregame Jen but it's still so cool to say 150 games in the record that makes up that 150 games is even more in present absolutely part of that senior one and I record not being so hot a year to now know that there you have a hundred and fifteen incredibly no question about that dish it is the Cleveland fugitive Pittsburgh as they meet center fielders leave that a Pittsburgh do battle in Pittsburgh has edge if you will in this series they've won the last nine straight they are nine and three overall in the Cleveland Pittsburgh rivalry and that's similar to the NFL version of the flea bleep it's Berg rival I'd like to keep it the same our Rust Belt sister from Ohio while this cyclin fusion team has won more win than their male counterparts did a season ago winning over the Riptide a few weeks ago but Cleveland makes the trip down here to Pittsburgh Cooper and they have deferred to the second half which means the Pittsburgh passionate offense will get the first touch of the football and maybe one of the other storylines we haven't touched on yet Jen is the fashion are going to be without the services of Lisa Horton a knee injury will sideline her and it will be evident Gummer e then has the big shoes to fill talking about those 150 games a lot of them it's 14 at the helm yeah I mean Lisa Horton has shouldered the weight and lion's share of a lot of those 115 wins then today she's on the sidelines she'll be coaching another skill set that she has that you're probably not surprised to learn about but she is a consummate team player and she'll be cheering her teammates and coaching them from the sidelines hopefully you know to a win and a playoff home game in a few weeks here yeah lot on the line we mentioned it during the pregame there is a lot to play for the passion still battling it out for what would be a home playoff game in two weeks the Division Tier one and the league will all get by weeks next week and then it would be two weeks from now that possible game and what a turnout so far as fans still continuing to file in here to GOP diva Kellis Telep Stadium in West Allegheny and a good turnout it's YMCA night youth youth sports night and they got YMCA plan in the background good atmosphere it's hard to keep this the hands down you know right behind Lisa Horton and how we've secured 115 of those wins is are these fans there's nothing better than playing at home so I asked Anna Damon the question I mean you go on the road cuz you have to and no other environment is like the passionate environment so thank you fans Stacy mister will have this one teed up for the fusion and the Pittsburgh cash it back to receive Baker is back for the passion and she will wait this and catch it on the hop at the 21-yard line across the 25 to the far side 3035 across the 40 and still going up just shy the 45 yard line for Angela Baker as the Pittsburgh passion offense will have good field position to start tonight's ballgame that's always dangerous to give to this high-powered passion offense and although resorting is not under center very capable leader is and I imagine she will do everything in her power to capitalize on this field position well she has 10 touchdowns thrown this year seven hundred and seventy yards she's completed 42 over 56 passes at 75 percent pretty good I'm not a math major by any stretch but we'll have to check out how Montgomery does from the pistol formation we'll turn around and hit it off the left side and getting bogged down quickly the Cleveland defense slicing it and getting Kia Foster Foster a brunt of the carries for this Pittsburgh passionate team but you get back to the original line of scrimmage no hado and looks like it was number 55 amber Kirby linebacker for the fusion who brought her down and you're gonna give me a loss of one so it's second down and 11 motion is Baker in jet motion a little bit of a misdirection play or miscommunication rather is fostered and inevitable he got the handoff and worked back to the original line of scrimmage couldn't find a lot of room there as the quarterback ball carrier exchange was a little bit miscommunicated there Nomos looks like it was number 91 defensive lineman capri the bell who stuffed that hole quickly and getting any forward progress Montgomery looks here to the near sideline and she's getting the calls from Lisa Horton and Montgomery faced with their first third down and long here for wide receiver set for the pistol formation foster moves to the sidecar high snap pulled down by Montgomery rolling out to a right show throw that way and the pass is overthrown incomplete and her intended receiver Baker and falling down to the play and it brings up fourth down for Pittsburgh Angela Baker was in some good combat him fighting there with the fusions secondary and not able to escape or and eventually just got knocked off her route kiff down pittsburgh in punt you'd it out special teams has been quite special this year for Pittsburgh change in that field position Meister back to punt for Pittsburgh left foot bouncing this is going to take a pitchfork roll and boy talking about tilting field position as this is going to be inside the 10 and down at the 8 yard line by the Pittsburgh special team shooted nicely done and I imagine number 17 Yasha Brokaw is getting a mouthful by her coaches for letting that one go where's a catchable ball but it took a very favorable passion bounce and the fusion offense are pinned deep against their bullpen zone first corner is brought to you by eight nation wakeup Pittsburgh and hydrate your on Pittsburgh passion television officially a 50-yard punt and put it in a first down intent for Cleveland as their offense trots out onto the field against this dingy Pittsburgh defense Riordan was the quarterback of five eight at a Fairview Park Ohio will get the snap and hit it off the left side and collapsing right up into the middle it was Connor who came up and laid the lick for Pittsburgh and will pick up three yards for the ball carrier that was Stacy Messner on the carry end up a second down at seven for the fusion rear dude from the shotgun once again sidecar to a right turning around and hand it off again it's AC chambers on the carry this time out of Kent Ohio Chambers Italy picks up about a yard and a half and it's gonna bring up third down look like Connor got her second tackles in a row Connor doing a good job for the passion defense in its first series [Music] third down at five from the Cleveland 13 shotgun for Reardon she'll go back to past looks right throws that way and it is just out of the grass of the intended receiver here on the near sideline intended for Nyjah broke Hall and it will be fourth down and Pittsburgh defense hold serve and special teams units take the field for both sides and it look like Devon Connor was without encouraging the flat there as well Robert Morris University is Connor making big plays on defense on that series this one takes a bounce will be picked up on the roll here on the near side it's trying to reverse field Gaby O'Neill and O'Neill's going back the old the other way and can not break that lateral movement and get upfield and this time Cleveland able to trace her down back at the 50 yard line so had the pittsburgh 40 and ended up going back to the 50 yeah I mean Gabby O'Neill has a lot of speed but in that scenario north south north or south applaud the effort but a 10-yard loss on the play yeah we don't where she caught the ball so Pittsburgh back to work offensively after running the football on their first possession Montgomery back to work with the Pittsburgh offense first out of tent for the midfield stripe 11:05 to go here in the first quarter left to right motion Montgomery hands it off the know she's going to keep it on a quarterback keeper option play and Montgomery shows her elusiveness as she slips and slides her way to the 41 yard line in a pickup at nine on first down Montgomery having a read option there and liking what she sees decides to call her own number and scoot right through that hole second added one in to Cleveland Territory for the first time today is Pittsburgh and it's Foster getting the carry off the left side she stopped right back at that 41 yard line it is defensive front for Cleveland being stingy so far Kia foster coming into this game had 172 yards on 43 carries four touchdowns Baker goes in motion left to right and this one is knocked out of the atmosphere nicely veronica rucker knocked that one out of the atmosphere and looked like they were trying to hook up with Baker who was in motion there but will be fourth down and one what can we back to the line is Montgomery they look back here to the near sideline checking on calls from Lisa Horton northen one the passion gourd for it sand of motion man and then headed off it's a first down for Pittsburgh his foster picks it up and picks up more inside the 35 yard line we went it down to the 33 yard line it's a Pittsburgh passion first down most importantly know Cleveland's front line playing aggressive in that time the passion Hawkins showing them they're willing to take risk the play equally as aggressive in that time it paid off quickly the line is Pittsburgh first out in ten from the Cleveland 33 yard line Montgomery bucks out the signals and will turn it on and hand it off the foster again will try to get the corner breaks a tackle and now finally gets spun down by the ants a lot of fusion players that come back down to get foster her and it's Johnson who finishes off the job as it would be a 1 yard pickup for Foster Foster doing a good job keeping her legs moving bouncing off the first tackler Amber Kirby but not able to fully escape pitch fly to the right side and being tossed down just shy of the 30 is a Gabby O'Neill and again Johnson comes in to make the stop for Cleveland and it would be third down and it's we're not able to get that corner to spring O'Neill loose third down and they'll call it eight from the 31 Montgomery gets the snap rolls out to her life big pressure will throw completes her pass on the near sideline to Angela Baker Baker hauls it in moves the sticks they needed it they got 10 yes and it's a Pittsburgh passion first down at the 22 yard line you weren't quite sure whether Montgomery could feel the the breath of the fusion player trailing behind it but she gets that pass off just in time to Baker and that is really tough it's a roll here to that near side and try to get your body straight to be able to throw on target when you're being pressured like that kozo goes in motion she's going to get the carry off the right side Koza got the quarter a flag comes flying in as she navigates around players and it's finally shoved out of bounds short of the sticks about an eight-yard gain but our first Yellow Handkerchief of the evening is on the field from referee Jerry Lavelle in the area of holding and it is holding on Pittsburgh that one the gate display it holds on number eight Sharon Vasquez who's notoriously tough and both the corner and wide receiver position knows how to break a block and deliver one that I've just got too much of the jersey man auger Murray gets the snap looks to her left has pressures hit as he throws the balls in the air it's tap play Angela Baker a cheese into the end zone firk acid touchdown Angela Baker holes in the touchdown pass her 50th touchdown as a member of the Pittsburgh passion Jerry situation there you know as she lets go of the ball she's being hit just lucky for a hurry Angela Baker never took her eye off it went up to the air brought it down and was able to find the endzone [Music] 23 yards on the pass and catch Montgomery to Baker mr. green on for the point after touchdown snap hold and kick all good 723 to play here in the first quarter of the Pittsburgh passion are on the board against their foes from Erie in the Cleveland fusion it's seven to nothing Pittsburgh leading over Cleveland as the pass should take advantage of some good field position and able to track down the field and you said a Jen maybe a luck ball they're throwing that one up and Baker ended up coming down on this one of those 5050 balls you know you those happen in games just like the other the other bad bounces and so you know we'll take that one and I mentioned fiftieth touchdown for Angela Baker she joins Lisa Horton and Rachel wood down ski in that category and the celebration of something to do with the number 50 whether it be 150 or 50 did they continue here today together Powerball Pittsburgh passion football brought to you by silver sport keeping sports clean horse need silver sports silver zone which passion did not score from they just outside knocking on the door this one on a bounce fielded it oh my goodness level inside the 30-yard line come back down I'm trying to grab a jersey number thinking that might have been Gabby O'Neill she's don't for laying the licks on your special team so go with that is it's gonna be first to ten for Cleveland at the 30 yard line and you know it's kind of funny you know Cleveland got yelled at there for that not touching that bouncing ball on that punt and thought definitely paid for it on uh on that one and I'm sure they've watched enough film on it's pretty good death that's going through their heads as they start to look up and whether I'm gonna catch them to let this ball go first down a tenth for Cleveland they would go back to work reared in the quarterback I will hand it off off the left side and Pittsburgh is their AC chambers on the carry and she has quickly brought down by a host so black and gold yeah name a number that's out there and they were in on that tackle the bow Vick being the first to get there look at Kaitlyn Niedermayer leads the team had tackles with 43 coming into this game she also has two sacks on the season so I'm sure she's chomping at the bit to add to that tally absolutely talked to her last home game here on passion television second down and nine for Cleveland Reardon will roll out here to the near side a little bit of protection going to think about running as the production breaks down and boy does it break down as weirdin brought down met by Damon first and Nina Byron a four yard pickup and the Gruden came out hoping that she was going to see a possible receiver open and she did not picks up the hard earned four yards and it's third down for the fusion third down and six from the 34 yard line Reardon from that pistol formation will get the snap look to her left look to a right nobody's hoping at - she goes she was set on the play Caitlin Niedermayer give her her third sack collapsing in on Reardon in forcing a fourth down play she was not to be denied she kept coming and coming hard and she just got that arm out for round the leg and earns her third sack for the worth doubted 12 punt unit on for both squads O'Neill and Baker back to receive a high snap there and this one whirlybirds their way and it's Baker on the reception at the 47 and is tossed down in Cleveland territory at the 40 yard line that's where Pittsburgh will have great field position start their third possession of this ballgame 455 to play in the first quarter it's seven to nothing Pittsburgh [Music] first-quarter brought to you by a nation wake up pittsburgh and hydrate a nation bringing you the first quarter all year long 50 that further broadcast intelligent first out of 10 montgomery rolls out to a right will put it up into the air again and it's paper though comes out with it inside the 10 yard line it's angela baker into the silver scored silver zone in a first in google Pittsburgh st. lured of that touchdown play Jen yeah and the coverage on the play she just got a step on the defensive back and offensive bag just can't do anything to risk turning around for the ball had no clue it was in the air just trying to chase Baker and making it an easy catch first down and goal for Pittsburgh marker down at the nine motion is Baker rolling out as Montgomery here to the near side Montgomery looks like she's gonna take it herself but just can't get the corner and it shoved out of bounds marker down at the 7 yard line so give her thorry on the quarterback keeper the second down and goal for Pittsburgh looking to add to their 7 to nothing lead here oh is kozo left to right montgomery gets the snap throws Toto Oh just so close it was a split second play and now maybe a second later Co zone would have been able to make that catch but it falls incomplete it will be 30 go 4 bits burg now it looked as though kozo had just turned her head around but not yet had her eyes spot the ball was athletic enough to get her hands on it but you're not in the place that allowed it a real an enemy 3rd down and 7 for Pittsburgh third and goal from the seven Montgomery gets the snap fade route into the end zone and it's caught by Shelley best west but they say she was out of bounds incomplete Vasquez did not get her feet down according to the official and it's incomplete and I hope they go right back to it because if you look at the way that the fusion defensive back is just ran during in by language says it all Shannon or Sharron would be able to get open for that fade again yeah she was wide open on that on that play but just couldn't get the feet down and forth down a goal a big fourth down here Montgomery rolling out to the right throwing all the pop hats it's Angela Baker who makes the catch for the Pittsburgh passion touchdown Montgomery to Baker from 7 away for the passion touchdown [Music] extra point coming on Green sends it through the polls a good 321 to play here in the first quarter and the Pittsburgh passion add to their lead in his 14 enough they go over the Cleveland fusion national roll in here at West Allegheny in front of the home fans we'll take a break you're listening and watching Pittsburgh the bell and games very mark they're digging deep here together a working at the referee the passing graduation [Music] drink green will kick off Kristin green has this one teed up as we welcome you back here to West Allegheny High School where the passion have a 14 to nothing lead over the Cleveland fusion Montgomery to Baker's like Groundhog Day so far here in the first quarter [Music] dicks away and mopped and picks back up and the Pittsburgh passionate special attention it is all over with that was partner on the return therefore Cleveland but it wasn't much of one after the buff God sent back behind her own 20-yard line fashion were able to put an end to the return at the break we celebrated the long tenure two of our arrests Jerry Lavelle and Dave berry you know they've become like family to the passion players so much so when you're on the field of thing if you've done something they'll cook I'll save down Jen you know that was interference and this is kind of odd but we want to thank them for all their service over the years they've been tremendous on and off the field work in these summer games of course they part of the high school and college crews as well so this must have like full-time gig there busy busy guys I'm not jealous and off their to chambers picks up just one and second down and nine here in Cleveland in Cleveland's kept it between the tackles so far Jen and never really had those splash plays to bust something loose and every time they've ran out Reardon she's been met by one of the Pittsburgh passionate defenders pretty quickly they have the size and matchup with the Pittsburgh passion but they just don't have the speed and so that's why they cannot shake anything lose earn it awaits they snap on a second down and I'd play will pitch it to you to the right side and then your side weaving her way through defenders his AC chambers chambers gets up to the 25-yard line picks up four yards third down up coming Meyer gets credit for the tackle out there by T Montgomery and handed Damon as well just so fun to watch his pittsburgh fashion defense you know if the offense puts up the points in they're flashy whether they're passing or running but I just love watching this defense play they're they're so quick they're so fast and they're just tenacious to the football [Music] on a third down and four play from the 25-yard line throw it and be short of her 10 receiver trying to hook up there once Reardon trying to get it to Gardner and it will be fourth down special teams unit looks like it's coming onto the field for the fusion at the 130 mark here in the first quarter Gardner certainly not marine space she could work is just Reardon didn't have the arm to get it to her special teams out Katherine green out to punt for Cleveland O'Neil and Baker back to receive it bounced away banker awaits on the return here's Baker shaken a Vicki tear down the near sideline and Kylie shoved out of bounds another nice return of it only flag is thrown check that before we see where Pittsburgh will want to begin this offensive series finger got a nice block by their counterpart number 55 Devon Connor who just trying to take some of the chasers out now the mix is is Baker stepped and danced through a lot of traffic [Music] the from kara Lavelle 15-yard late hit on Pittsburgh that will move them back 15 yards [Music] Pittsburgh will start just in their own territory at the 47 yard line a minute 21 to go here in quarter number one [Music] acta work goes the passion offense Montgomery back to pass put it up into the air and overshoot alright ended receivers not sure if she was trying to hook up with Crystal kozo or Annette Rodriguez one of the two wasn't ended up second down Austin at Rodriguez on Frederick Maryland currently at Crewe City College so she's probably a little happy extra free time on our hands right now and up right up the middle it's key a foster foster the 49 yard line rocker gets credit for the stop and it's gonna be third down upcoming for Pittsburgh and eight from that 49 yard line just shy that midfield stripe Montgomery moves foster to the sidecut or right in the for wide-set Montgomery rolls out to the right side pressure barreling down coming back to the football his Vasquez to the far sideline will hover the past that will be short of the sticks on a great play by Sherri to come back to the football down Sharon's got amazing field filled awareness and she's a quarterbacks dream in order to find make herself open to the space and so she knew what she needed you to come back for that ball and great job Sharon what down Pittsburgh will go for it Baker goes in motion right to left and she'll get the catch on the screenplay here to the nearside at Baker makes the elusive moon that will spring her flee for the Pittsburgh passion foot first down and the passion move the sticks and that's the way that we will end the first quarter of play will flip sides with the passion still maintaining possession of the football one quarter in the books we have that good thing on the scoreboard we've got 14 points on the other side you know we got to work our way into that sort of 40 mark in order to help us in the mass here an experiment it's all looking good after one quarter of play here from West Allegheny Pittsburgh 14 Cleveland nothing come back with us for quarter number two on the pittsburgh passion television network tonight [Music] you can't afford medicine the official supervisor other factors super you're not number one in nutrition back to West Allegheny High School 14 to nothing Pittsburgh passion lead it over the Cleveland fusion and Pittsburgh passion football second quarter is brought to you by the Green Tree Sports Plex and fitness center as we welcome you back alongside Jen Karin's Matt Fargo bringing you the action here this seemed in the first play of the second quarter in and out of the hands as Sharon Vasquez you're on the near side and I don't think I've ever seen that no and wide open and I think you know she realized how much open space she had there wasn't a defender inside and it was one of those kind of pitch ket scenarios that thinking about running before you catch it she wants that back for sure ball sits on that force side on this second down at 10 play and Montgomery pass under thrown intended for kozo and it will be third down Jeff what do you think about peponi Montgomery's performance through one quarter we talked at the beginning of this game big shoes to feel with without Lisa Horton out there she's holding her own out there I mean I was almost on he's under found balls you know if the if there's a particular if she can't see over the size of the line but she's certainly holding her own she's got two touchdowns under her belt today third down and ten from the 38 and it's going to be Montgomery weaving her way through defenders kind of shoving players out of her way and she's inside the 35 down to the 33 yard line could be short of the first down sticks fourth down play up coming this passion offense is not scared to go go for it on fourth down again any team as they've showcase all season they have such confidence and they and they have the ability Montgomery will roll here to the near side throw complete her pass to Angela Baker and Baker big grab down by the hair inside the 20 yard line and the Pittsburgh fans don't appreciate that and it's a Pittsburgh passion foot first down one way or the other yeah you know when we first started that was a role you could not use the ponies hell of a hair coming on the helmet as a vehicle for tackling and now it's been changed should be an extension in the uniform but I think it's just dangerous as a horse color so I'm not a big fan of the role and then they jump on top of her helmet basically planted her head first they have a reason to be upset in the stands for sure first out of ten lon come are you gonna let it fly and Baker couldn't get there and that would have been the way to make Cleveland unhappy with Baker catching her third touchdown pass yeah I mean I think she was searching and doing her best to try to to find the ball in the sky and then adjust to it it was just again and on and off thrown ball miscue by Malcolm yeah I remember in the the pro ranks it was Troy Polamalu that made that kind of a topic of interest throughout football and yeah I agree with you the hair connected to your head which is connected to your neck kind of same idea of the course collar gonna call this a live ball and they're gonna say it's a fumble it Cleveland gets the football so pressure immediately and then the ball comes loose and the fusion are gonna come away with the football here big turn of events at a big turnover for Cleveland who really could not afford it to give up the score they're here early in the second quarter down by two scores and the ball coming loose out of the hands of Kia Foster [Music] so one of the coaches go over to her and you gotta have a short memory in those types of situations yeah and you can't retaliate you know because there are always those emotions too well Cleveland goes back to work offensively so does the Pittsburgh passion defense Kelsey Edmonds comes up to lay the lick we have an injured Fusion player down can't see if that is the ball carrier which Royce AC chambers weight on that leg training staff out to attend Oh hope she gets off the field trying to put a little bit of weight on it that's not serious of course either side that's one thing in this realm of football you never want to see on either side second down at 11 for Cleveland Reardon will go from the pistol and roll out to a right pressures all around her throw it off and it is intercepted Rachel Adamski picks it up on the tip drill and she's gonna try to leave her way through oh she's gonna be down inside the Queen 1 30 yard line Rachel wachowski comes away within a reception and one turnover deserves another one Jen exactly I was just about to say we're starting to see some new numbers out there Matt 17 being one of them but 42 julia anta being another but she didn't want to wait for me to call her number she wanted to to make a statement on her oh it's a great job low Joe her first fourth career interception for Rachel without ski [Music] ashin offense right back to work almost ironically right where they left off that last drive before turning it over first added tenth from that 28 yard line 1250 to play here in the second quarter passion lead at 14 to nothing Montgomery from the pistol for wide back to pass put it up now the far sideline off the helmet incomplete pass intended for Rodriguez second down I couldn't see whether or not that it off of Rodriguez helmet for the defenders on that fourth side line which was broke off there's excellent excellent coverage out there by broke off turn to turn around since they baleen into the receiver and get her arms up to try to deflect and yeah you're right I'm not sure which helmet it bounced off of but it was a good defensive play Montgomery on second down at 10 after that incomplete pass gonna take it herself on the option play and Montgomery very close to first down yardage in fact I think she does have the sticks by the initial spot and if she does it one way or the other it's the passion or in the silver sports silver zone keeping sports clean little misdirection there that the defense totally thought Kia Foster had the ball and allowing Montgomery to just take off left finding greener pastures they will mark her shy of the first down stick so it's third and one from though officially call it the 29 you need or they need the 20 really just past the 28 yard line short of the 29 the third down at Short Montgomery will throw and coming back to the football no she couldn't make the catch was canceled a baker and that was a tight window to throw it in between two defenders to Baker and it goes they could play I mean it looks like she had I thought she had the ball and until she hit the ground sometimes the ball to the ground knocked it loose or the defender was able to get her hand in there just last split-second now it's fourth down in less than a yard I should stay in that pistol formation and that's a movement here left side of the passion line I'm making a full start make it fourth down at six so it seems like they called it on 99 in ronica Burris well now this makes it a little more interesting on fourth down at six now from the 24 Montgomery little pump fake will stop and pop into the endzone the banker she made the catch will offensive touchdown Angela bakers corner today we'll worry about that passed again is to the triple coverage bit Baker comes down with the ball for her third touchdown adding to that leave Pittsburgh passion yeah I tell you what it's it's a throw and Baker goes and gets it Montgomery to Baker for the third time and it's green on for the point after touchdown extra point no good 11:48 to play here in the second quarter in it's the Pittsburgh passion 20 the Cleveland fusion nothing as the passion add to that lead on a big fourth down play that was gonna be about to give the boat back to Cleveland and we're able to put it in the end zone they know what's on the line playoff scenarios and they've got to try and score on every Drive Pittsburgh fashion football is brought to you in part by super donuts number one a nutrition more protein less fats by post acute medical providing high quality post acute

approach to favor early level 48 to play here at West Allegheny and the passion ready to send it back the way of the Cleveland offense green to hooted away [Music] yielded you're the near side bye broke off they get their broke off gets up to the 35 yard line and Cleveland back out all those onto the field [Music] Jim what do you think this Cleveland offense trying to find themselves here and it's Berg passion defense has been able to answer the call no matter what they've decided to do so far yeah I mean it's really tough when you're playing at defense is deep and is tightly packed as one unit as they are try to find those weaknesses even as they substitute in new numbers it's a challenge for the Cleveland fusion for sure rear didn't hand it off running back in the ball game [Music] goes leave that smart Tina let Tessa test over a long time player for the Cleveland fusion of course she came in for the injured AC chambers Pittsburgh jumps gets back on unabated through the quarterback no call they're fake the handoff Reardon keeps it in Pittsburgh still all over in the backfield what else key Niedermayer it looked like yep on the bottom of that foul that's normally safe to say you could say that with your eyes closed sometimes that's probably what they orange jerseys are saying in their sleep nightmares that's right [Music] third down for Cleveland third in eleven turned out to be a really nice day here in Imperial like the passes Reardon gonna stop and let it fly too tall for everybody it sounded receiver broke off the intended receiver on that play that goes he could play fourth down out on the coverage there was number nine Rebecca air good bring up fourth down without late flag it's gonna be on sports been like on the Cleveland bench it seems that's the preliminary call we mentioned Jerry Lavelle and Dave berry the official the referee is Lavelle and back judges Dave berry the umpire is Dave Latrell head lineman is Bill Schottenheimer no word on whether or not he's related to Marty and the lines been Ralph Lindsey Schottenheimer Zahn from western Pennsylvania I'm sure we can I have my encyclopedia in my car one goes out of balance down on that four sidelines there in Pittsburgh right back to work with a short field and that's really where Pittsburgh I feel like this offense benefit so much they're able to get short field it's it just makes their job that much easier Cleveland's been playing both sides of the ball for good parts that happened the game you know they're softening up up front which was very aggressive initially and why the run was not working against them and how they've started to spread them out the build the threat of the air as well so the passion between the Cleveland defense doesn't have a chance to to adjust it's been the scary thing about this Pittsburgh Action Team even back when you were playing with threat of run or pence what a great bunch of girls in the box and try to stop the rock they're gonna air it out and want to try to back everybody off we're gonna smash mouth bounded right back up the middle yeah I mean having a well-balanced team is certainly you know critical and you you see those teams that are able to package a few wins or one dynamic heavy but you want to be a true Game Change like the passion I gotta be balanced an option play by Montgomery and she had the option all the way down the field after breaking one tapping to tackle at the line of scrimmage fix up 15th at a Pittsburgh fashion first down and knocking on that silver sport silver zone or the 22 she got up a little gingerly there and then you know walk back a little slower so I'm wondering if something you know got got tweaked we'll have to keep our eye on her from that pistol formation pitch out foster that's still alive and it's still loose and who's gonna come away with this Pittsburgh it looks like they foster somehow caught the football she did and that was a behind the line of scrimmage pitch in there everybody kind of took that play off there for a second yeah but then nobody's more motivated than the the person who dropped the ball dough to fight for it back and so I'm happy to see that Kia Foster came up with it Pittsburgh lives to fight another down second down and 10 from the 21 yard line Montgomery back to pass looks right looks left throws that way it's hot boy that's worth a touchdown no its proposal is that who was that hold that passing shot I think so I mean I was I was saying she's a she's got her options there are two open black jerseys out there crystal kozo an Angela Baker wasn't sure who was gonna come down with and it looks like it wasn't over 40 crystal kozo rest'll co so holes in her first touchdown of tonight's ball game and you know we were talking about some of those passes by montgomery that one beautifully thrown to crystal kozo to make that catch extra point this time where the poles ain't 43 to play here in exactly quarter action to the pittsburgh passion have expanded their lead to a 27 to nothing lead over their rivals from Cleveland second I thought does she have four and that 40 showed up and sure enough I still cozy up comes away with the touchdown it's for passion football brought to you by the club sported health one membership more options more fun by Larry Lin flooring we rented it only the best where I propels schools inspiring achievement by nature's best CBD buy your star restaurant and bars and Steudle pike in imperial and buy log cabin and watery offers custom embroidery and screen printing services inc it's it kicks this one away in from the 23 yard line oh boy trying to pitch this one back and I think Pittsburgh no-ho-ho its Cleveland who comes away with it Cleveland trying to pull trick out of the bag of tricks and know we're giving a secondary indication that Pittsburgh has the football the Abby O'Neil comes out of the scrum with the football paper scissors may be able see whether she got it or not right yeah you know you got it you got a wad the effort of Gabby O'Neill of fighting for it fighting for it until they made the call and in this case after the impressive fair by Gabby and almost swayed the vote but it is stays with Cleveland that initial call stands no one no red handkerchiefs here no no challenges although we do have replay first added ten for Cleveland on that 31 yard line Reardon will get the snap and hand it off slit essa pick up Pittsburgh collapsing down I thought I saw a new number out there Julie I oughta stop Julie I on toes out there I think me Mia Smith is out there I'll show you dump the grout Ashley Chico here on the near side suck it down and nine after that one yard pick up make it in the keeper by Riordan Riordan gonna be quickly brought down on the play Devon Connor on a Bobby mo makes the stop there dad up coming here for this Cleveland offense [Music] third down and seven from the 34 yard line for Cleveland it or didn't roll out to the right side pressure comes she's going to take off and run with it and get knocked out of bounds for side 41 restaurant I think there might have been I think was shoved her out on that four shot bring up fourth in one of your shy those sticks [Music] within one the clock winds down towards six minutes here of the first half second quarter brought you by Greentree Sportsplex handoff and they stopped them later on down so invested and Connor on the stop that denies the Cleveland fugitive first down and permits the Pittsburgh fashion offense to come right back on the field the door down again defense is doing what it's got to do and they're doing it it's sprinkling in new players with some vets [Music] first and 10 from the 39 for Pittsburgh Montgomery lets foster her side card on the right kozo in motion that she's going to get the handoff on the end around the jet sweep you're the near sideline and then shoved out of bounds by Veronica Rucker and the Jets we picked up go 2 yards so we'll be second down at 8 upcoming zoo Boas trying her hardest to seal that corner for close oh just couldn't get in on Rucker stretched out the plate of the far sideline wrecker able to push codes a lot of bounds Baker goes in motion on that jet motion the other way and they go right up the middle to foster who breaks free and she breaks another tackle inside the 25 yard line down to the 22 it's a Pittsburgh passion first down once again and we've look by ting on the jet motion they come right at him [Music] first down and ten from the 22 trips go to the far side left Montgomery fakes the handoff and then taking herself right up the middle and in side the 20 and that means inside the silver sports Silver's out keeping sports clean and keeping the Pittsburgh passion offensive machine judges chugging almost every series has been started not too far outside of the silver sports silver zone which is always a positive Frank oh I'm sure is appreciative passion defense setting him up good I snap pulled down by Montgomery great play and then we try to make something out of nothing and she done has picked up a yard and really disaster striking there in Montgomery making sure it doesn't happen but pulling that high snap down yeah earlier in this season we saw a lot of those high snaps that seemed to have been tamed and under control as the season went on so let's let's hope that was just one in one bobble right trips go to the far side left montgomery barks out the signals and then checks here the near sideline you saw Horton and Kara Prentiss directing signals Montgomery gets the snap looks left the whole way kozo makes the catch flicks attack with Stein sticks another one it is inside the 5-yard line it's a Pittsburgh passion first down for Crystal kozo as they set up inside the Cleveland 5-yard line crystal showing you once again how she is a solid receiver for the Pittsburgh passion and tough on to earn those yards after the catch bouncing off the defender and defender and so she's finally brought down just shy of the end zone Pittsburgh knocking on the door again Montgomery moves Foster in motion sends kozo in motion and then rolls out here on the near side throats into the end zone incomplete Sharon Vasquez the intended receiver in the end zone and it will be incomplete second down and goal upcoming second down and goal it's a keeper by Montgomery trying to get to the pylon showdown early and so on for the Pittsburgh passage touchdown gets into the end zone and experience the passion lead a four yard touchdown scamper it's their passion have had a long history of having quarterbacks that are double threats there are threats of their arms or threats with their speed of the legs and Montgomery is showing you right there what she's capable of with those legs Prentiss will be the long snapper Montgomery to hold green to kick and other extra point attempts to add it that is good so a buck-59 to go here on the first half the Pittsburgh - it rolling 34 to nothing over Cleveland here on their regular season finale in front of the home fans and so far Jeff but not a great show yeah you know they talk to us thinking in-game saying you know not to run up the score on Cleveland but they need to at least get 40 points for the Massie ratings and then maybe get some help from the New York Sharks Kinsler DC divas today so maybe at halftime we can check what's going on in that game but they are just shy of meeting that first goal the second goal of course being to pitch a shutout on defense and right now that defense looking unflappable certainly our second quarter brought you by the Gregory Sports Plex and fitness center also by UPMC sports venison the official sports medicine provider of the Pittsburgh passion I mentioned earlier agenda whether here threat of rain they brought in flowers before kickoff and that's kind of cool things down it has we have a nice little breeze now it's fantastic the the fans aren't freezing or sweat sweltering it's it's an awesome day for football and it's certainly showing it is a packed house here in jopi Demichelis Stadium home of your Pittsburgh passion breaking a tackle there was broke off and then knocked out they're good on the stop there for Pittsburgh well we just got the update that the DC Mayor game is a little bit ahead of ours they hit half it's not promising news DC is leading the New York sharks 41 to zero so very similar to the game we're watching here today certainly I think it's going to be interesting to see how this playoffs plays out but boy DC and Pittsburgh splitting the regular season series and obviously that also going to who was the home team in that series so the interesting to see how it plays out Brokaw gets it on the end around and Rachel Maddow ski bring her down there is a flag down in the same area of where yeah where Rachel browner down is going to be a facemask penalty on Rachel without ski and the passion are gonna give up a couple chunks of yards here due to that penalty all things being equal there Matt if it comes down to them boils down to the head-to-head matchup of which they won one lost one they lost in DC by more points than they won here in Pittsburgh and so that favor would land up DC's yeah that's I mean that's kind of frustrating if you're Pittsburgh fan because Pittsburgh really had control of that game here in Pittsburgh for much of that game and though the scoring by DC was kind of late when the game was salted away at that point yeah but such is life and leti so we'll get this carry right up the middle and carry it into Pittsburgh territory for the first time for the fusion we come up on a minute to go here before we send it to the break or post acute medical halftime report is coming up and our super donut halftime interview so stay tuned for that might be half-time for the ladies on the field not half-time for us we work overtime second down and seven fake and then a quarterback keeper and ranking that one tucked tackle Riordan they're able to pick away for two or three up to the 46 yard line Vasquez gets credit for the tackle and it will be third down let's see if they want to get another playoff here there's 15 seconds to go looks like they want to whether they will yeah it's one of those question I'm gonna say no now even at home first I thought you ywz call a timeout they did that whistle there was about with two seconds left yep and they're gonna put two seconds on that was the appropriate call there Hannah being embarrassed but some of our loved ones crowd singing happy birthday with big fat head signs of her head but I'm sure those are memories that you'll remember it's a big one it's twenty-one plans after the game I'm sure there are some you know all of us have crossed bed that that milestone and there were things in the evening and and I will also say not everybody gets to do it on a Saturday night Eve that is true yeah not fun on a Wednesday how do you make Wednesday third down and four will be the final play of the half barring of penalty Reardon will roll out and be under thrown two broke on that's the way the first half will end - in well in front and in control of this one Pittsburgh - that lead is thirty four to nothing after the NBA Finals not going Cleveland's way this week is not shaped enough to be a good good weekend to be Cleveland Pittsburgh has the lead they're going here coming up they're gonna have a moment of YMCA stuff the foam YMCA here coming up and halftime in we come back with our post acute medical halftime report and our super donut halftime interview all that and more to come stick around it's Pittsburgh passion football they lead at 34 to nothing at the break right here on pittsburgh fashion television stay with us [Music] [Music] are you [Applause] we get this one back towards this is a live ball it's Pittsburgh's Paul it's gonna be Pittsburgh's ball at the 30-yard line on a kickoff it's a live football you can't advance it but Pittsburgh's gonna get the football at the 30 yard wide Jetta I don't think I've ever seen that I haven't seen it either and I'm very surprised that with some of the veterans are on the field therefore they played a little cute and that somebody didn't start screaming that it's a live ball but it is what it is so they lose their opportunity to start the half with the ball and it's so graciously handing it over to the Pittsburgh passion at their own 30 yard line Wow well that's a key to the second half yeah well let me get these stacked in first but I think there might be some more coming on the table do it offensively you have Montgomery 10 of 20 160 yards three touchdowns Baker 100 seven receptions 119 yards three touchdowns codes of two receptions for 37 yards and a touchdown and there you go thank you thought we were going to be starting with the defensive staff we adjust we do on the fly here even on the broadcast a pitch to Foster and foster try to break a tackle and she gets down to the 25 yard live for Kia foster and it will be a pickup of 5 for this Pittsburgh fashion offense the scoring Montgomery to Baker Montgomery to Baker Montgomery to Baker and then Montgomery to kozo and then a Montgomery 4 yard run to make a 34 to nothing suck it down in five Montgomery will go and overthrow bakery complete searching for that touchdown number 4 and it's Baker tonight but you know this passion offense you know anyone it's just plug and play it really seems like it as far as this whole passion unit that you know it's such an evil about the depth you don't get to see it all the time but it's it is so deep it's been one of the strongest suits of the Pittsburgh passion you know for the last 16 years or just able to groom athlete after athlete so that they're primed and ready to come off that bench and contribute in a very meaningful way and that's what you see time and time again all I think you know western Pennsylvania bruised its female athletes through the WPIAL and a aunts a lot of sports and then you know if you stay close to home and you play in the pack or P AC or PSAC or you're playing anywhere around Pittsburgh it's a high level of competition and even if you're coming to the fashion via high school or via college you're prepared in a lot of ways to be an athlete and be able to play in a variety of positions here's Baker getting it on it and around and making up a lot of Yas lost yards it will be first down for Cleveland so really that mental error if you will on these part of the fusion there to start this second half off really doesn't affect Cleveland as they're going to get the ball really right around where they should have to start this second half I mean that's a bullet certainly dodged by the Cleveland fusion now they have to do something with this incredible gift they were handed and after this first play take a look at the defensive statistics for your Pittsburgh fashion through one half of play most importantly goose egg intact Reardon will get the snap hand it off no she'll keep it on that fake faked me out did not create the ball carrier Wendy's on the field that Smith on the stop there for Pittsburgh alright so in the first half of play for this Pittsburgh passion defense you had you know Meyer with seven tackles in one sack earning her 15th career sack Nia Smith with five tackles radowsky with two tackles in one interception and green four out of five point after attempt pretty impressive both sides of the football they're in that first half for Pittsburgh second down at six from the 32 Reardon gets the step shovel pass over and she is absolutely the Kinzua Kovac was there immediately and almost took the hand off herself for loss for Zhu Bo what's third down and 11 coming into this game Matt she had 20 solo tackles one of the top five leaders for the Pittsburgh passion thus far this season and that is her sixth for a loss on the season they're down at 11 for the 27 reared it from the gun at the snap here comes ooo bow and she was able to break her tackle and then lose the football and it's a loose law on the carpet here at West Allegheny and they're going to unpatented say Cleveland retains possession but Kim Zubov ik really caused the disruption and then eater Meyer came in there was nowhere for Reardon to run where she didn't see all black in her face and so and it looks like there might have been a new number out there involved in the tackle 78 morgan cross out of 84 pennsylvania brian of canada macmillan high school a big max honey cheeseburgers this one fielded at the 45 yard line on the return mawar ski down the far sideline and chill being knocked out of bounds at the 10 yard line for the Milwaukee she caught that on the run and then a flag came down back at the 36 yard line and I think this is going to negate of an otherwise great return for Ellie Millar Steve three times walking about $40 this one gonna come back [Music] despite the button block in the back tremendous run by LEL our ski a number that we've not seen out there much this year but showing the potential that she has to shine out there yeah nice speed down that for sac first and ten from the fifty [Music] [Music] looks like we don't have a lot of personnel and oh you've got Samantha Simeon it's a keeper by Montgomery she'll shrug off a tackler have the 45 the 40 and then out of bounds Jamestown moving the sticks or the passion she can motor moves the sticks for Pittsburgh first down and 10 down at the Cleveland 38 yard line sign car to Montgomery's right we'll put it up yeah that's far for our vantage point but I think Baker was being kept out by her hair and was not going to be denied the end zone yeah she definitely made a touchdown in dramatic fashion of the basically tug-of-war with the ponytail I'm just not sure who was the first instigator of the war of words and were physicality that then ensued afterwards jerry Lavelle with his way of words saying the penalties wipeout Angela Baker in for a fourth touchdown of the game hard-earned no question yes hopefully she does one next strengthen the exercises as they move forward in the postseason you know we could go through a whole season without seeing plays like that he's good to of that beer tonight extra point from green right through the poles 931 to play and the passion frost that ever show imported 40 point threshold it's 41 to nothing in favor of the homestanding passion over the Cleveland fusion now just keep that zero in tact [Music] Pittsburgh - at football blonde she would part by silver sporty big sports clean by UPMC Sports Medicine the official sports medicine provider of the Pittsburgh man should buy super dota number one in nutrition more protein less fat by Abe nation wake up Pittsburgh and hydrate by post acute medical providing high quality post acute health care services and by YMCA of Greater

touchdowns in every game but the DC game two weeks ago she is fuller here tonight out of bounds [Applause] [Music] legal procedure call on Pittsburgh and we'll give Cleveland good field position see what they could do with it great crowd on hand and if passionate seats snapchat's being taken down there if the pass you get lucky enough to hosts the playoff game in two weeks got to come out support the passion football in the city of Pittsburgh [Music] course I can keep up to date on all fashion all things Pittsburgh fashion football on social media and our kids doing a great job today tweeting out the updates kozo almost got that pic trying to get that ball at the highest point it could play it intended for Brokaw will be second down and 10 yeah but sorely under thrown and chose a far better position than Brokaw to come down with the ball just couldn't get the timing right you know and as it stands now Matt if the standings and the Macy ratings don't change Pittsburgh passion would be home in two weeks but they would have a tough rematch against the Boston that's why that was some ball game here earlier this year that was a fun one certainly one to come out and see that's how it shakes down because it's gonna be knock-down drag-out go to the last second for sure but if they could somehow hop over the DC divas in those Massie ratings then they would go Danby home hosting Atlanta so we shall see if Boston I guess jumps over them in the master ratings today who Boston is I think playing Philadelphia then the Pittsburgh passion wouldn't be home at all and they would have to be have to face Boston away in Boston we're gonna take that snippet and post it on social media so everybody knows the playoffs situations here now Jen so eloquently describing that I now I know educated now we'll start on Cleveland gonna move aback on this third down at ten play and make it third down at 15 [Music] they went continuing to take a lot of time in between plays no hustle to try to get to the line with Paul any play at [Music] the pass will throw away this time COSO comes up with the interception just had one two plays ago this time she was making sure she got her paws on the football and crystal kozo as herself in in2 again at her place for Costa to come down with it the intended wide receiver broke off that who just doesn't have a see her seem to have her timing down with their quarterback Cindy Reardon of the board [Music] I think coming into tonight was our 12th interception of her career yeah at least her second on the season that moves him back here to the 44 so Pittsburgh gonna have to retreat back here [Music] this one here to the nearside completed and pushed out of bounds for our ski pause it in our ski goes down these dear sidelines and gets back some of that lost yardage on that over that snap third out of one you see a lot of undisciplined on the side of the fusion with arm tackles hand tackles no nobody trying to seemingly engage physically weaving your way through the defense they're going into the end zone for the touchdown hey Smith you chilled in the end zone 38 yards Smith goes the distance and making look easy I mean as this she bursts through the line and turns on the Jets is able to find the end zone in no time not a white jersey in sight her fifth rushing touchdown of the season [Music] Green to send it through the pipes one and get there 47 enough a Pittsburgh 445 to go here in the third quarter fashion in commandingly we'll take a break ur watching Pittsburgh passion television [Music] [Music] [Music] and much more [Music] breeding to boot this one away welcome you back here and she's gonna put him right over the head and everyone and this is gonna get into the end zone it's still alive they've not gone over this part of me is wondering if the official told her it's alive yeah I think he did cuz he got appointed to it like yeah you gonna pick that up oh man it's one thing to have one of those mental lapses one yes but you would think then you were like in that is now embedded literally the next pic on fire well they took a knee and touch back and bring it out to the 20 yeah only in in high school now is that if the ball at any point crosses the end zone it would be a touchback but gotta go get it you're not playing high school ball and off Tula Tessa what we brought down no game Caitlin Niedermayer again causing havoc and I'm noticing that their original running back chambers now has crutches beside her on the bench over there on the far sideline so hopefully she can get the treatment she knew she gets home for sure [Music] intercepted and she could take it to the house with a passion touchdown a steal and score for the passion defense who was that Aereo smith again no it was Gabby O'Neill who took it yeah the O'Neill goes the distance and gets into the end zone for the passion touchdown Gabi O'Neill getting it done all day on special teams is that Gunnar and it is just this time as though she you know was gunning down the field with the ball her hand and she was not to be denied she took that ball like she was the intended target of that throw and took it in for the steal and score the extra point good 54 to nothing the Pittsburgh passion lead it over the Cleveland fusion thanks to the Gabi O'Neill steel in-store interception pick-six 54 to nothing passion lead it you're on the passion television network [Music] [Music] please get up [Music] it's Berg up 54 de Delta here in the third quarter it was Gabi O'Neill getting it done this time on the defense of being offensive I mean she is an athlete that has talents that are available on all sides of the ball last year she spent a lot of time playing running back she's been getting done on the special teams all year long and now she's showing if she can play a little bit of dB he comes the first passion player in the m150 game history to return a punt a kick and a interception for a touchdown history books continue to be ready I can imagine that list is very long or a list we're down cleaver and off there goes Tula Tessa she's been the ball carrier steady workload for her but it's been in game for her more than yards fashion defense swarming the ball carrier here tonight fashion defense being a little bit stingy err than a DC D is it looks like New York has finally got on the board against them with six point so anything we can do jump ahead of them tremendous for the postseason summer pastilla Tessa oh man breaking that one up in the background sat machetes witness the Shante Smith they're looking that one up I think that's the number I saw to their loss of five third and 15 third and 14 back at the 10-yard line [Music] call it the 15 [Music] back to pass in a bunch of trouble puts this one up and nearly coming down with it just couldn't hang on broke off here on the near sideline it looked like she knew where she was and she had a little bit more room than she's thought she did but that's doesn't complete and ends order number three three quarters in the books for West Allegheny and it's the Pittsburgh passion 50 for the Cleveland fusion nothing come back for the fourth and final chapter of this one here on Pittsburgh passion television [Music] one welcome back to West Allegheny the passion will get the football to start this is it's a month punt picked up by mawashi in here comes Millar ski it's some blockers in front of her exit tackle and wash he pulled down at the 30 yard line quick return for Ellie Malloy ski at a slippery rock university and this was not coming back so she gets to keep all that yard yardage on her stat sheet two for two on good returns for her [Music] pittsburg passion football brought to you by UPMC Sports Medicine the afford fishel sports medicine provider of the pittsburgh passion a nation wake up pittsburgh and hydrate first down and ten for the passion back to work goes M&E montgomery pitch it out is Ariel Smith who got the touchdown run yarder to second down at 13 up coming here for the passion I think there's any secret Jen Atlanta probably would be the one team you would like to play if you had your choice although it's always good to play a team you know well right Lana they know they don't know up know about or know so intimately and would be learning about them on film Boston you know they know where they're strong and they know where they're weak but the reverse is also true that gave here earlier this year was a absolute great one I suggest going back and watching it if you haven't seen it go back and watch it on YouTube it's pretty impressive pretty fun game to watch absolutely to top-notch teams with superstar athletes just showcasing their talents and gifts and off the air thrown back that was me O'Neill bring us brings up fourth down for the person in it it was like a heavyweight fight it was just Pittsburgh would strike in Boston to come right back in Pittsburgh would be able to deliver a punch Center would be a turnover and another turnover to outdo it was it was a fantastic game in the fun one I mean the mental toughness just exuded by both teams alone for how many times the momentum had changed there's a handoff the left side Courtney store off the left side her first carry of the evening she's inside the 25 to the 24 yard line it will not be enough for a first down a turnover on downs Cleveland will get the ball back cortney's door is someone we normally see on the defensive side of the ball as a linebacker and so she's stayin staying out there she's getting her first taste of playing both sides of the ball after just caring that laughs down for the Pittsburgh offense and now she's taking her spot in the linebacker tour Cleveland offense back out on the field and it's a first intent for them at the 24 yard line and off again goes Tula Tessa she stopped behind the line of scrimmage like 65 Amanda Cole's for the passionate on that stop looks like she has a church section in attendance she does and she's playing against her native Ohioans she's from Wellsville Ohio made the right choice clearly I don't think she want to be on the other side of this game right now second down and 12 from the 22 another handoff and this time Julie I oughta comes up to make the stop out of Newcastle they're slippery Rock University at a slippery Rock pipeline we do it started with Lisa Horton and then continued on third down to 13 now for Cleveland back of the 21 yard line 54 to nothing our score if you just tuned in or moved your browser up ahead [Music] [Music] her down at 13 from the shotgun formation a sidecar to the left [Music] Tessa again gets the call oh my goodness he a Montgomery introduce yourself Tia Montgomery and Inlet Cessna have been playing against each other for many many years Montgomery has been on the team she was a powerhouse back then she's still imagining providing veteran leadership up in your back fence remember watching lots of film on her fourth down at 13 and the putt is blocked what by Pittsburgh oh they're gonna get it inside the 10 yard line and it was Taylor Montgomery chocolate behind the line of scrimmage wasn't enough she wanted to get her paws on the football on special teams and walked that football in the silver scored silver zone first time tonight the passion will start a drive inside the silver sports silver zone [Music] offense right back to work in a short field to work with and that's been the mo all night it has been an odd time to go close look at that huddle to see what new numbers we might see coming in [Music] Podolski is coming in on offense we've seen her on defense thus far tonight Gabby and Neil still in in there [Music] Veronica Burruss lines up opposite of Adamski Millar ski the slot receiver they give it off to O'Neill and O'Neill gets slung down and Mark around at the down at the 8th Damon's back in down and goal from the 8 motion is molesky pitch out to O'Neill O'Neill's going to try to get to the pylon in the quarterly head so she's it again Gabby O'Neill offense defense and she scores evil way Pittsburgh passion back on the board was her flag down there know Gabby's it for a touchdown and there were some new offensive line numbers out there that helped pave the way for Gabby O'Neill number 75 Erika shoe craft number 63 Michelle smiley number 77 Caitlin Niedermayer who's switching on the switching sides of the ball there number 62 Emily Shea and number 78 Morgan crocks Coraopolis native went to Cornell High School her family in attendance tonight and how about Gabby O'Neill doing it all herself I've been able to cross off on the special teams plays making defensive plays on the pick-6 and now don't it offensive she's making full use of every opportunity that she's getting to tension the turf here today and that's kind of like you know gabby is that she's being able to step up in her role and make it count and and that's what you need to do in this situations where you get an opportunity and maybe you show the coaches something that they didn't know that they had she's certainly making making good of all those opportunities this is certainly a powerful runner she showed that both of the interception pick-six as well as in the scoring drive just then she's a hard hitter which you seen multiple times from the gonna roll and special teams as the path she gets set to kick this one off I'll pose this question to you can the answer after the kickoff then a part of us handful of these 150 games and it's put fashion history and of course the national championships have to stick out besides those is there any moment or game or play that sticks out in your memory is one of your favorite in the 150 you could go back to your playing this because I feel like that's where you're gonna go but you can even count it up here in the booth too if you want received at the 25-yard line Brokaw broke a tackle broke another one and for a third China was not to be denied and have good field position here for Cleveland with under five minutes to play in regulation 61 to nothing it comes down to our biggest rival the DC divas and then we had beat them once at home that season and then they were clinging to the fact that they had they were undefeated at home and they had maybe a 16 game run streak at that we went to meet them the second time it was a hard-fought game and I felt we were getting homeward a bit with it with some of the calls coming our way but there was nothing sweeter than that game at the ends riding through the ups and downs of the good calls back hauls and breaking that streak so we go break in the 16 game streak for the DC divas always comes down to rivalry it does it really does you want to beat the best absolutely first out of ten for Cleveland Brokaw is gonna get a call here and Hanna Damon happy birthday slice knifing into that and bringing her down behind the line of scrimmage cowbell breaking out if you can hear that through our microphones but it's always fun festive here need a prescription second tenet 14 back at the 44 after that Anna David tackle if you missed the beginning part of the broadcast celebrating her 21st birthday and wants to do nothing more than keep that zero intact for the Pittsburgh fashion defense fans are still in it compassion well ahead but defense chant in full effect and the passion stack her up looks like number 71 Monica Richards out of monroeville PA and Gateway high school the one who stopped her is the rebel runner brings up third down at 14 back at the 44 is were under three minutes to go well I think Jen safe to say it will be win 116 in fashion history 116 at 46 that is their down mind ball I see and there's so many people on and off the field between the white lines that have made it possible and something this one is underthrown is she make the catch she did not I think we'd be remiss again she hates my adventure names I wanna do it anyway but we would miss if we wouldn't acknowledge that as a both a player and a coach those 115 wins teresa con yeah to deal with them no question about it just you see the people that she surrounds herself with and that's I mean isn't that what makes a person I mean it's it's it's really remarkable what she has put together and what has made it possible to accomplish everything that this team has done and like someone in that position to always push the credit in opposite directions of herself but it's fun to watch it really has been fun to watch over the years and I don't know I don't know about you but there's there's there's championship teams there's those fields and you know how's that feel this year it certainly has that feel it certainly does I mean it started with the Boston wind it started with the hanging on to win the DC game here you know and every every good championship run has some drama in it so to go and lose a DC and it be a tight game is just the spur in your side that you need a kick to you know not get complacent so I think they're ready and I think there is going to be a deep run to the national championship game for this Pittsburgh passion team [Music] under a minute to go passion should have gone into the greatest formation and football victory formation this is the first shutout since 2060 when they shut out the Cleveland fusion at Slippery Rock University hosting a passion passion go to 10 and oh here at West Allegheny they have never last here as their home field and ten and three overall in the Cleveland Pittsburgh rivalry shutout number 47 well thank you shut up 50 they'll be holding up a trophy so I'll take I'll take win I'll take three more wins but final score here tonight 61 and nothing your Pittsburgh passion come back home after the bye week and they deliver in front of the home crowd 61 to nothing over their rivals from Lake Erie set it up the air Jen before we went on these two teams met back to 2007 and the playoff semifinals from right to go to the championship game Cleveland was riding high on some pretty big wins and Pittsburgh passion knocked off Cleveland even really hadn't been into the postseason since then and the passion really haven't looked back since then no I mean it's like one of those things like you you get over some one of those hurdles or dream it can be done and the passion just forget who burst through those holes there after I mean everyone being on the team that day and it was it was a hard-fought match but then she saw that the game was gonna go in our favor the DJ start playing Rocky Mount Tennessee which the game was gonna be in Nashville Tennessee and just that excitement it sticks with you and I think that the veterans that carried the team forward from there for those years we're not about to take a step backwards every time we've sort of seen one of those teams it's been ok you know whether it was Baltimore whether it was Cleveland well great went for the Pittsburgh - it here tonight 61 to nothing I thought Montgomery filled in admirably here tonight to the injured Lisa Horton excited to get her back out on the field for the postseason I am sure and just then they know Gabby O'Neill I feel like kind of sticks out to me is one of the people that stepped up in this game and delivered what what needed to be delivered at the time it did - yeah Gabby O'Neill coming up playing when she her number was called and playing well contributing in in a way that can't go on notice by us or others and so she's certainly a tool in the toolbox as we move forward here into the postseason well we said it time and time again you know and you never know who's going to be stepping up game in and game in week in and week out for this pittsburgh fashion team and it really makes them a force to be reckoned with because you never know who can't step up and in those game situations but you know now it's looking on to the playoffs in it's women continue or lose and you wrap up your season so things get a little bit more intense do you get that feeling as a player does it feel that way that you know really you know second down and five in the second quarter of a regular season game really doesn't mean that and the grand scheme of things but it can in the postseason sure any time it's winner go home there's that extra pressure from the first snap of the ball because you realize that you know you don't have that next week to make a difference or brush that lost off and learn from it and grow from it like this is a be all end all and so that's why you need veterans likely support in under center and veterans on the field to who know that who've been there who played through tough matches and playoff games before and can bring the newer the the greener playoff athletes up to that level and say look this is business the mindset you have to have from first nip we talked to Kaitlyn eater Mayer last broadcast and she said you know a great group of rookies and a great mixture of veterans and that that is need that that mixture that recipe needs to challenge she said it has gelled so well and it's proven so on the one between the white lines this year and been fun to watch I mean it starts from from pre-season training camp right it starts at the retreat this is more about putting your than putting your best 11 athletes on the field at any given time it's about culture it's about character and they protect the pittsburgh fashion have protected that above and beyond anything and it just speaks volumes they success and the team and while they're able to say goodbye to talent and integrate new talent year in and year out and and this just feels it feels like a special year certainly does 61 to nothing the final score the passion wrap up their regular season 2018 campaign on a winning note and it wins over Cleveland Boston DC Detroit Columbus Toledo and once again Cleveland they head into the postseason and of course will have the all cupboard for Pittsburgh cash at playoff football once again like we always do and of course our post game is coming up next on believe our postgame

work hard so do the same thing as if it was and I mean a game that we went all the way through so was there anything said after the DC loss to kind of refocus and retool was the first loss of the year to maybe figure out things and retool and get ready for this game two weeks later we just had to prep as much as we can we did a lot of film studied what we did wrong what we could correct make better and how to execute during practice so we could show we perform on the field this has to be fun it just seems like this team is so plug and play you never know who's going to be able to step up the right time and in the right moment is that fun for you guys to know that that anyone could step up at any point and that it's really not a superstar related team just that everybody is able to step up and make big-time plays in any moment oh absolutely that's what fuels for you to go hard at practice and go hard when you're in the game you never want to let up you always know that your teammate got your back if you're in first and you got your person behind you the know that there is never ever gonna be a moment where it's gonna be a slow play that's the best thing that's what fuels us we push each other up to make sure that everybody do what we need to do are the veterans able to help you in any way and how do they how do they work with you or how does that work what is that dynamic like well they don't go easy on us but it definitely makes us better like I wouldn't want to go against anybody else if they took it light then I wouldn't be getting better all right so the Pittsburgh passion are headed back to the postseason such as life if you're a Pittsburgh passionate player but the championship of course is out there what's the mindset and the focus going in knowing that could be Boston back here in two weeks you know how how crazy of a game that was the first time that you played what's what's the mindset going into to the postseason and potentially Boston in a few weeks it's the same asset as we always had take the game step by step play by play and we do our game we do not lower the bar we raise the bar it's playoff time so we definitely got to raise the bar a little higher and go a little stronger - let me normally do feel the same way all right I have to ask you guys this I don't know if you know but tonight was the 150th game in Pittsburgh passion
