Mekhi White (183 rushing yards, touchdown) and Abraham Cornet (46 rushing yards, three touchdowns) ran wild for the top-seeded Blue Devils (10-1), pairing with a strong defensive response in the third quarter to fuel a 28-12 state semifinal win over No. 4 Nashoba Tech at Wayland High School. The previously unbeaten Vikings (10-1) started the second half by nearly tying the game at 14-all, but Randolph denied the neutralizing conversion attempt and followed with 14 unanswered points to ice the win. “This is my first time going, this is going to be a new experience for me,” White said. “I’m just glad I was able to take my teammates to the Super Bowl and help them get here.” Big rushes of 33 yards from Haggai Joseph (15 carries, 76 yards) and 71 yards from White turned into an early 14-0 lead for the Blue Devils, only for Nashoba Tech to claw back. Vikings quarterback Colby Catterton (11-for-26, 126 passing yards, touchdown) bounced back from a slow start with a 16-yard touchdown pass to Chase Carney (seven catches, 106 yards) in the second quarter, cutting the deficit to 14-6. And after he connected with Carney again on a 58-yard deep ball early in the third, freshman Zack Deschenes (18 carries, 92 yards) ran in a 1-yard touchdown to put Nashoba Tech within a two-point conversion of tying the score. The run attempt failed for a second time. “That’s in our preparation, we talk about those two-point plays all the time,” said Randolph head coach Jon Marshall. “We just covered it down all week and we talked about how two points in a game can be a really big difference. ... The fact that your team is able to respond after getting scored on and shut down those two-point plays is a huge testament to their resiliency.” What followed was a 14-play drive from the Blue Devils that ate over eight minutes of clock, twice converting on fourth down before Cornet ran in his second 15-yard touchdown rush of the day for a 21-12 lead. The ensuing kickoff was fumbled deep into Vikings territory, and Randolph finished the quarter at the Nashoba Tech 12-yard-line. “We call that a Randolph quarter,” Marshall said. “We talk about ball security and controlling the clock. ... That kind of drive, especially (to convert) two fourth downs on that series and (be) able to execute on those short-yardage plays, is something we pride ourselves on.” Much like it did all game, the rushing attack delivered yet another touchdown for a 28-12 lead when Cornet took a fourth-down attempt seven yards for his third touchdown. It capped off a memorable performance for White, who was frustrated with an early fumble. He paired with Joseph, Cornet and Senecca Spencer to run for well over 300 yards – often getting extra pushes from teammates in a scrum for additional five or more yards. “Ever since that (fumble), I just worked on ball security and played hard,” White said. “All glory goes to me, but the linemen really do the dirty work. The linemen should be getting the credit. ... I really want to give credit to my whole O-line.” “We always say the pride of our program is our offensive and defensive lines,” Marshall added. “We’re really blessed to have some big guys that play for us, and they work hard, too.” The Vikings weren’t done threatening down 28-12, even thriving in the hurry-up offense to quickly drive down the field with about eight minutes left. Andy Vilceron ended the scoring bid with an interception for Randolph at its own 7-yard-line. Nashoba Tech’s defense got the offense the ball back twice more after that, but the Blue Devils forced turnovers-on-downs both times.

Seahawks safety Coby Bryant had one of the biggest plays of Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. Bryant picked off a Kyler Murray pass and returned it 69 yards for a touchdown at the 7:12 mark of the third quarter. Bryant punctuated the play with a celebration that Marshawn Lynch made famous during the Seahawks' Legion of Boom days, grabbing, uh, beneath the line of scrimmage as he dived into the end zone. Bryant could be hearing from the NFL this week and it could cost him. Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams was fined $19,697 for doing the same celebration last week against the Jaguars. Lynch originally did it on his "Beast Quake" TD in 2011 and a second time against the Cardinals during the 2014 season. That second grab cost him $11,050. Lynch was fined twice while with the Seahawks for the gesture. He was also fined $20,000 for doing it in the NFC championship game in 2015. Before the Super Bowl that year, the NFL warned the Seahawks another grab would mean a 15-yard penalty. Aaron Jones, then with the Packers, was penalized $11,050 for doing it at the end of a 79-yard run against the Cardinals in 2022.Climate Change Don't miss out on the headlines from Climate Change. Followed categories will be added to My News. Australia’s delegation to the COP29 climate change conference has been labelled a “complete farce” after one speaker opened her remarks with an Indigenous Acknowledgment of Country — for an event in Azerbaijan. The two-week 2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference, which wraps up on Friday, was held in the tiny former Soviet republic straddling eastern Europe and western Asia. Despite the fact that the capital Baku is more than 13,000 kilometres from Sydney, that did not stop Dr Clare Anderson from paying respects to Australia’s traditional owners, as is now customary before most corporate, government and sporting events. Dr Anderson, director of sustainability performance at engineering and professional services firm Worley, was speaking before a nearly empty crowd for the opening panel session at the Australian pavilion in Baku. Australia’s delegation to the COP29 conference in Baku. Picture: X “I’m very delighted to be here today,” she said. “To start, I might ... whilst we’re not on Australian lands, I’d still like to start with acknowledging the traditional owners of Australia and the Torres Strait Islands and pay my respects to their elders, past, present and emerging.” A clip of the moment was shared on X by former Australian MP Craig Kelly . “What a complete farce — here’s a video from the ‘Australian Pavilion’ at the climate wankfest at Baku — funded by Australian taxpayers,” he wrote. “Imagine, all that coin to pay for constructing an exhibition stand, flying a delegation half way around world, setting up video facilities to record it all — and they get five people to attend.” He added that “I wonder if this would pass muster if we had an Australian DOGE”, referring to US President-elect Donald Trump’s Elon Musk-headed Department of Government Efficiency. Dr Clare Anderson, director of sustainability performance at Worley. Picture: Supplied The video sparked bemusement among many viewers. “Why are Australian government officials doing a welcome to country in Azerbaijan,” Nationals Senator Matt Canavan asked. “Welcome to Country ... in Baku,” said Freelancer chief executive Matt Barrie. One-time Liberal candidate Katherine Deves, who unsuccessfully ran for former Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s northern beaches seat of Warringah in 2022, said, “Australia is an outpost. No one cares.” Several X users labelled it a “joke”. “Cancel the return flight, the credit cards and disavow. That will save lots of planet and our money,” one wrote. “We are not a serious country,” another said. After the failure of the Voice to Parliament referendum last year, some commentators have suggested the Welcome to Country and Acknowledgment of Country — now found everywhere from bus announcements and school assemblies to job interviews and pilates classes — should be scaled back. Shadow Indigenous Australians Minister Jacinta Nampijinpa Price said earlier this year the overuse of the Welcome to Country in Australian public life could actually make people feel unwelcome in their own country. Ms Price told Sky News Australians should not be “confronted with it at every single opportunity”. In September, One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson called for ceremonies to be banned , saying Australians were “sick and tired of them”. “They are sick of being told Australia is not their country, which is what these things effectively do,” she wrote on X. frank.chung@news.com.au More Coverage Pauline calls for Welcome to Country ban James Dampney Kids told to repeat ‘always Aboriginal land’ Frank Chung Originally published as ‘Complete farce’: Australian delegate performs Acknowledgment of Country at COP29 in Azerbaijan Join the conversation Add your comment to this story To join the conversation, please log in.
