Submit youth football, cheerleading info, photos and more

Sports Scene is a Miami Herald feature that spotlights news and notes from all youth and adult sports activities with a Miami-Dade slant. The aim of the section is to feature game notes and the accomplishments of individual players from Miami-Dade County, along with league and park standings.

With youth football continuing (flag and tackle), submit game notes on Miami-Dade players and teams -- win, lose or draw. Cheerleading programs can submit tournament results.

To be fair to everyone, we rely on the directors and the coaches of each league and the community to send information for Sports Scene. The more you send, the more space for your player, team, program, sport. We also accept photos, but we ask that everyone pictured be identified with a first and last name and the name of the team or park they represent. If possible, please include the name of the photographer.

The section is free and open to anyone. Email sportsscene@MiamiHerald.com or jvarsallone@miamiherald.com.

The undefeated Hialeah Cougars 13U (135 pounds) tackle football team came from behind to defeat the Kendall Hammocks Warriors 24-14 for the Miami Xtreme Super Bowl title at Milander Park in Hialeah.

Trailing 14-8, Hialeah’s Daniel Doriscar scored on a 30-yard run with 3:58 remaining in the third quarter to even things at 14. Matias Rodriguez kicked the winning 2-pointer with John Correa the holder.

Doriscar added a 62-yard touchdown run with 8:25 to go in the game, and Rodriguez converted his third 2-pointer for the 10-point cushion. Kyeshaad Pennywell and Dewayne Terry each had an interception. Pennywell also made a tackle for a loss, and Traveon West recorded a sack. Yeltsin Mora, the game Defensive MVP, had a tackle for a loss, made a key stop on fourth down and registered a big hit on kick coverage.

Hialeah beat Kendall Hammocks by a lot in their regular season meeting, but that didn’t intimidate the Warriors, entering the Super Bowl. Jordon Donaldson scored to give Kendall Hammocks a 6-0 advantage in the first quarter. Davonte Montgomery kicked the 2-pointer with Michael Lopez the holder. In the second quarter, Michael Cox threw a quick short pass to Montgomery who raced 30 yards for the score, and the surprising Warriors led 14-0 late in the quarter.

With 22 seconds left before halftime, Hialeah quarterback Trevon Fowler, the game’s Offensive MVP, raced 54 yards for a momentum-changing score. Rodriguez kicked the 2-pointer, and the Cougars trimmed the lead to six.

Donaldson had a key first down run on Kendall Hammock’s second touchdown drive. The Warriors’ Alejandro Fernandez had a tackle to thwart a reverse, and Misael Oropesa recovered a fumble.
