Week 10 Lowcountry Game Balls

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Between guys putting one more exclamation point on the regular season and those propelling their teams into their regular-season finales, Week 10 in the Lowcountry was highlighted by these individual performances.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We saw quarterbacks firing away, tailbacks moving the chains, a kicker capping off a great week and a couple of defensive players making sure nobody forgot they were on the field. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='502413' first='Tavien' last='Orellana']</strong> QB, Philip Simmons</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Iron Horses already had the region title in hand, but Orellana didn't let up in the 50-22 win. The senior was 17-of-18 for 239 yards and touchdown passes to <strong>Nic Tribolet</strong>, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1592547' first='Brody' last='Tonon']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1254044' first='Kolten' last='Kellermann']</strong> (who now has a team-leading nine touchdowns). Orellana and the rest of Philip Simmons now have two weeks to prepare for a first-round game against Mullins.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1012859' first='Karmello' last='Jones']</strong> RB, and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='473021' first='Caden' last='Ramsey']</strong> WR/DB, Cross&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The region championship stayed at Cross, and the Trojans made it look easy in a 36-0 win over Baptist Hill. Jones rushed for 150 yards and two touchdowns on his 18 carries. It was his seventh 100-yard rushing game of the year to go along with his 25 rushing scores. Ramsey (pictured), meanwhile, was a terror on defense. He picked off a pass (he now has eight on the year), broke up another and recovered a fumble to go along with three receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown on offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1574112' first='Kaleb' last='Gadson']</strong> LB, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1422587' first='Kordell' last='Holley']</strong> RB, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1394988' first='Aedan' last='McCarthy']</strong> QB and and Bluffton&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Holley gave the Bobcats a considerable ground presence by rushing for 117 yards and a score. It was his third straight 100-yard game and fourth of the year. McCarthy completed 16-of-23 passes for 227 yards and three scores. And against May River's strong rushing attack Gadson picked a perfect time to put up a career-high 15 tackles and advance him to a team-high 90 so far on the season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='605521' first='Gray' last='Dangerfield']</strong> K/P, James Island</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mere days after committing to Tennessee, Dangerfield showed how good of a kicker he is against Stall. He didn't need to punt, but what he did do was hit all seven of his PATs, was seven-of-seven in terms of touchbacks and even put two of his kickoffs through the uprights. Dangerfield will probably need at least a couple playoff games to get there, but him reaching 200 career points isn't out of the equation before the season is over. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1094944' first='Aiden' last='Manavian']</strong> QB, Oceanside Collegiate&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Landsharks' quarterback definitely looks like he's in playoff form after throwing for six touchdowns in a blowout win over Orangeburg-Wilkinson. Manavian was spreading the ball around to a bunch of different receivers en route to a 387-yard passing game. It boosted him over 2,000 yards passing this year. He's also got 23 touchdown passes against only four picks. Those are numbers opponents won't be interested in discovering while doing playoff prep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1615084' first='Tripp' last='Gallus']</strong> QB, Hanahan&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gallus made sure the Hawks closed out the regular season on another good note in a 48-13 win over Battery Creek. Gallus finished the game 13-of-18 for 223 yards and three touchdowns to <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1732659' first='Bo' last='Brabham']</strong>, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1359150' first='Dru' last='Goldsmith']</strong> and <strong>Tijai Hartwell</strong>. The 6-foot-4 freshman is starting to click for Hanahan. He's now thrown for 793 yards and seven touchdowns (one interception) and rushed for another 105 yards and a score since taking over the top job midway through the regular season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1664222' first='Derrick' last='Raniszewski']</strong> QB, and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1360333' first='Carson' last='Haines']</strong> WR, Hilton Head&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Seahawks have turned things around this year by relying on the run, namely behind what <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1013024' first='Troy' last='Timko']</strong> and Thaddeus <strong>Czarnecki</strong> have done. In beating Beaufort, though, Hilton Head was effective throwing the ball, too. Raniszewski was 10-of-15 for 153 yards, with Haines (four receptions, 91 yards) proving to be his favorite target. It may prevent the rest of the Seahawks' this season from jamming the box trying to slow down Timko and Czarnecki.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
