Wayne County surprised me but I knew they were going to be a great team.

 

While I was disappointed with the performance, I am ready to see improvements this season starting with the defense. The Falcons have the right ingredients to make a long run in the playoffs, it's all about getting better and improving weekly. Defense will win ballgames like these.

I can tell you guys this...Wayne is for real. They will do really good this season. They made halftime adjustments that shut Monroe down. Monroe looked very bad in the second half but after looking at it again, Wayne looked that good! Wayne's qb will do great things for them, this kid has all the right stuff and I would LOVE to see them play south! I really respect Wayne's program, coaches, kids , and fans. We have a good relationship with them and look forward to playing them every year...as far as south...NO LOVE! We have not had good dealings playing them, visiting them, or hosting them...and that's that! I can tell you this that it will be on when we play them again!!!

Monroe showed good sign of growth in the first half. Remember all these starters are just juniors. Not a senior led class at all. We only have a few seniors that start on both sides. All backs and qb are jr's. Line has senior center and tight end, the rest are juniors, sophomores and one freshman..defense is the same..Monroe is still rotating most positions and players around finding there groove. Kids are playing all over the place and they will be just fine once the right combination is dialed in. As far as 12 or lower in rankings...hey that's fine with the Monroe faithful, we don't really give a hoot about rankings because we always set the stage for a later season peak!

Has to go down as a good win for a very good young team.
