Massillon Washington won their 6th consecutive rivalry game against Canton McKinley High School in a 35-13 decision at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Tigers extended their winning streak to five and boosted their record to 8-2 heading into next week’s Division II, Region 7 playoff opener. The Bulldogs, meanwhile, fell to 6-4 and will head into the postseason as a top-four seed in Division I, Region 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
McKinley held an early opening-quarter lead as Khris Williams ran for a 13-yard touchdown for a 6-0 Bulldogs lead (extra point attempt was blocked by Tigers defender Austin Brawley). However, the Tigers took the lead on Freddie Lenix Jr.’s 49-yard rushing touchdown. After the Bulldogs took back a 13-7 lead on Amarion Williams’ touchdown run, and three fruitless first-half Tiger drives (on a fumble, a missed field goal, and an interception) kept Massillon from the lead until the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Massillon quarterback Darrius McElroy gave Washington a 14-13 lead in the third quarter on a 4-yard sneak into the end zone. On McKinley’s ensuing drive, Brawley intercepted Bulldogs quarterback Keaton Rode and returned it to Canton’s 8-yard line. McElroy scored on the first play of the new drive, giving the Tigers a 21-13 lead with 5:42 left in the 3rd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lenix added a 68-yard TD run early in the final period for a 28-13 lead, followed by a late touchdown run by Nathan Depuy to complete Massillon’s scoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The win for the Tigers marked the longest win streak for either school in the long-standing rivalry since Massillon won nine straight contests from 1957-61.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
