Mentor-None.Kickoff time: 7 PM End of Game: 9:55 PM Total elapsed time: 2:55By Eddie DwyerMentor, Ohio - No, there wasn’t nearly as much at stake as there was inNovember of 2012, when Ohio’s Mr. Football, Mentor senior quarterbackMitch Trubisky, led the Cardinals past Saint Ignatius, 57-56, in three overtimes in what was an OHSAA Division I Regional Championship Game atParma’s Byers Field in Robert M. Boulton Stadium.The Cardinals-Wildcats Week 2 regular season encounter on Friday nightin Mentor, however, had all of the drama of that 2012 night in Parma.Coach Chuck Kyle’s Wildcats and Coach Steve Trivisonno’s Cardinalsentered the “Game of the Week” as the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the area,repectively.Meeting for the 19th time in what is the premier Catholic School versusPublic School football rivalry in Ohio, if not the entire nation, SaintIgnatius (now 1-1) and Mentor (2-0) tested each other’s unbreakable will fornearly three hours before the Cardinals, rallying from a 56-49 deficit with11:55 remaining to be played, celebrated their eighth victory in the seriesand their sixth in their last nine gridiron meetings with the Wildcats, 63-56.The young man who appears to be the next exceptional quarterback outon Center Street, 6-foot-4, 205-pound sophomore Tadas Tatarunas, fireda rope to his gifted senior wide receiver/running back Jason Blizzard andBlizzard, catching the ball in stride, raced 52 yards into the end zone. CalTommasone’s extra-point kick was good and the score was knotted at 56with 7:09 left.Behind the running of standout senior tailback Alex Mathews and aclutch reception by Blizzard, Mentor drove for a first down at the Saint Ignatius 15 as the seconds were ticking off the clock. On a second down and 5yards to go from the 10, and 15 seconds remaining on the clock, Tatarunasrolled left under pressure, regained his balance and threw a TD pass into thehands of his other exceptional receiver, senior Malik Porter, who broke freeacross the back of the end zone. After Tommasone’s PAT it was 63-56 witheight seconds on the clock. Porter’s game-winner was set up by a leapinginterception from Cardinals junior defensive back Michael Ballentine with1:08 left.Saint Ignatius would field the ensuing kickoff and immediately take aknee at its 25-yard line. With eight seconds still on the clock, Wildcats outstanding senior quarterback Dennis Grosel, who threw six touchdown passeson the night, lofted a pass down field that fell incomplete deep in Mentorterritory as time expired.The Wildcats, who trailed, 35-13, with 5 minutes and 21 seconds remaining in the first half, cut the deficit to 35-27 by halftime. Trailing, 49-33,with 6:09 left in the third quarter, the Cats came storming back againbehind Grosel’s arm and the sure hands and routes of seniors Jack Cook andCal Grbac. Saint Ignatius tied the score at 49 on a picture-perfect 80-yardtouchdown pass from Grosel to Grbac and the ensuing two-point conversion pass to senior tight end Robert Hilbig with 2:50 to go in the thirdquarter.A 52-yard drive that was orchestrated by Grosel and featured clutch receptions by Cook, Grbac and Hilbig resulted in a smooth and powerful 13-yardtouchdown run by talented and tough junior tailback Jimmy Andrewswith 11:55 left. Jimmy’s second touchdown on the night saw him powerhis way over the right side, pick up a block from senior wide receiver ColinKruchan, bounce outside and race into the right corner of the end zone.Sophomore Matthew Trickett kicked the point after touchdown and theCats held the 56-49 lead.9

Eddie Dwyer’s Corner: Mentor PreviewBy Eddie DwyerHere is a little background on the roller-coaster rivalry between the Wildcats and theCardinals, which has picked up significant momentum since that memorable November 19th Saturday night in football-rich Lakewood Stadium.Cleveland, Ohio - The Saint Ignatius Wildcats and the Mentor Cardinals begantheir relatively short football rivalry in 1989.After lop-sided victories by the Wildcats in the first four meetings, including a 3813 triumph in the 1992 OHSAA Regional Playoffs and a 41-7 regular-season victoryin 1993, Mentor and Saint Ignatius did not meet again until the second round of theplayoffs in 2003.The Cardinals of Coach Steve Trivisonno came up with their first victory over SaintIgnatius in resounding fashion that night on Parma’s Byers Field, 31-0.Finally, a rivalry?Well, not yet, as Saint Ignatius went on to win four of the next five meetings withMentor.Then came 2010 and yes, what this corner now refers to as one of the finest PublicSchool versus Catholic School football rivalries in the nation started brewing.Mentor would win its next two matchups with Saint Ignatius, including a 38-24regular season victory in 2011 at the Cardinals’ Jerome T. Osborne Stadium.However, the Wildcats, on their way to their 11th Division I State Championshipunder Hall of Fame Head Coach Chuck Kyle, upset the favored Cardinals, 23-17, in a2011 OHSAA Regional Championship Game at storied Lakewood Stadium.The next two seasons also brought about both regular season and playoff encountersbetween the ‘Cats and the Cardinals, with Mentor losing both regular season gamesin 2012 and 2013, but responding with victories in the playoffs. The 2012, 57-56triple-overtime victory by the Mitch Trubisky-led Cardinals in the third round of theplayoffs goes down as one of the greatest games in the history of the OHSAA footballpostseason. Mitch is currently the starting quarterback at North Carolina.Mentor, which now trails its all-time football series with Saint Ignatius, 11-8, comesinto Saturday night’s matchup with a three-game winning streak over the Wildcats,including the playoff victory in 2013 at Byers Field, a regular-season triumph overthe ‘Cats at Byers Field in 2014, and last year’s 63-56 offensive shootout over SaintIgnatius at Jerome T. Osborne Sr. Stadium.Trailing, 56-49, with 11:55 remaining to be played in the 2015 thriller, the Cardinals struck with touchdown passes of 52 yards to Jason Blizzard from then sophomorequarterback Tadas Tatarunas and a Tatarunas rope of 10 yards to Malik Porter. Thegame-winner to Porter saw Tatarunas roll left under heavy pressure in the final 15seconds, regain his balance and find Porter, who was breaking free across the back ofthe end zone.Tatarunas finished with 531 yards passing and Saint Ignatius’ first-team All-Ohioquarterback Dennis Grosel threw for 415 yards. Dennis is bound for Boston Collegethis winter as a preferred walk-on.Mentor and Saint Ignatius combined for an amazing 1,438 yards of total offense,including 823 yards by the Cardinals.HERE IS HOW COACH KYLE, GRITTY AND GIFTED SENIOR QUARTERBACK PATRICK RYAN AND STANDOUT SENIOR DEFENSIVE ENDMIKE CHIME LOOK AT SATURDAY NIGHT’S MATCHUP WITH COACHTRIVISONNO’S CARDINALS.SAINT IGNATIUS IS COMING OFF A 45-0 OPENING NIGHT VICTORYOVER NORMANDY AT BYERS FIELD AND MENTOR STARTED ITS 2016SEASON WITH A 57-31 VICTORY OVER THE MASSILLON TIGERS ATJEROME T. OSBORNE SR. STADIUM. THE CARDINALS WER LED BY AFIVE-TOUCHDOWN PERFORMANCE BY TAILBACK ISAIAH GULLICK.FROM COACH KYLE: “Offensively, they’re very good. They execute very well. Inthe Mentor program, the young kids are running that offense for years and once theyget to high school they have a real good feel for it. And that’s impressive and that’s10what you see on film.“They spread you allover the field and therehas to be some one-onone plays made to be ableto stop them and get youroffense on the field. Sothat’s got to happen onSaturday night. You runto the ball and get to theball, but still there’s thosemoments when it’s oneon-one and the athlete hasto make the play, So we’reworking very hard onfundamentals, obviously,but also getting ourselvesinto good position to make plays.“Defensively, they’re big up front and the matchup of their defensive lineversus our offense line is kind of an interesting thing to watch. It will looklike college lines, to be honest with you. Then the skilled guys take over. Theygraduated some skilled guys and we did, too, but I think Mentor would samethe same thing, it’s the next kid step up. By senior year you should be executingat a high level.“We’re really going to have to tell the kids don’t loo
