The first team played a little over 4 minutes in the first quarter and that was all for them. Don't remember a team hanging 35 points that fast. Almost running clock in the middle of the first quarter. Up next....St. X

Agree completely with these observations. The score was in no way reflective of the abilities of the Rocks. Have been hearing the same grumblings about the nepotism happening at the QB position. At the same time, there were quite a few mistakes that can be attributed to other positions as well.

Fantastic game. For the first half, more than anything, Trinity was a little out coached and was the victim of several mistakes (penalties and turnovers). While Highlands has a great group of kids, taking out the self inflicted wounds, the score would have been more lopsided in Trinity's favor. As usual, Trinity was burned by the long ball for most of the game, and Huddleston did a fantastic job of getting past the secondary and wide open for perfectly placed passes. For some reason, the Rocks have never really fared well against the deep ball, and if the opponent QB has a rocket arm they are in trouble. As they seem to do, the second half was more like Trinity Football with adjustments being made, most notable putting #35 (Henderson) man to man on #10 (Huddleston), which shut down that threat. I was most impressed with #35 as OLB and Special Teams as well (BIG hits), and as everyone else has said, the lineman are HUGE. They do need to gain some speed, as the smaller and faster Highlands lineman did some damage. Get the turnovers under control and this should be a great year. Brentwood Academy up next.
