Is Ousley back?

[PurpleFlash]

Yes, Ousley is back and threw for three touchdowns with only one incompletion. Looked pretty good in his return, but unfortunately Hopkins Central can make anyone look good at this point. Ousley and practically all of the varsity starters were in their civies coming out of halftime. Game was played on Hopkins Central side of the field the entire evening except for one LO offensive series which began at LO 45. Second half was running clock with 8 minute quarters.

Hopkins Central has hit bottom and will have to make some changes. Should be an interesting match up next week as Lone Oak travels to Madisonville. Ousley will have to be on for that game.

 

There were a couple of events that occured that I did think were out of character friday night. In a blowout game, that you have well in hand, I dont think the kickoff return trickery to start the second half was uncalled for. Your thoughts? And then the second one was the situation that occured after the two players were ejected.

Care to elaborate on these two for us out of the loop? Thanks!

The ejections occured during a punt return. LO was returning a punt when the return man was ran out of bounds on the HC sideline. As that happened there was a contact made on the sideline. A HC player was hit. Not for sure if he was blocked or just got ran over. I think it was ruled unsportsmanlike contact. Flag was throw instantly. Before the LO player could get back on the field there was some pushing and shoving right after that. Another flag was throw. Unsportsmanlike again. Before order was restored, there were 5 unsportsmanlike penalties called on the play. 2 ejections, I think the LO player who made the late hit on the sideline and the HC who got up and retaliated. This happened in the first half.

 

So to start the second half, the adults(coaches/officials) agree to 8 minute quarters I guess for the second half. Its already a running clock. HC kicks off and LO has all their players meet in a huddle like formation and one player comes out with the football. They all head in different directions. Up 50 with a running clock and quarters have been shortened and this is how they start the second half? I guess they felt like they should practice it?
