Episode Details

Canton McKinley delivered a statement-opening win, blanking Warren Harding 33-0 with a powerhouse offense and an ironclad defense that held the opponent to under fifty yards. Junior Kyelin West ignited the game with a kickoff return and touchdown run, while QB Braylon Crook connected with Darius Hill for a halftime score. The second half belonged to special teams and defense — Mejer Cheek’s crucial kickoff tackle and Dwoyne Robinson’s goal-line interception turned into a 100-yard TD run, shifting momentum decisively. DeMarlo Rozier Jr. and Derrick Gordon added rushing touchdowns, sealing the shutout. Rozier led the ground game with 88 yards, Crook threw for 165 yards, and the team’s preseason No. 8 ranking got a perfect start. Coach Renzy Parnell praised the complementary play between offense and defense, especially how the running game in the second half helped anchor the defense — all while acknowledging there’s still work to be done.
