Cool! I might check it out.

I thought Trinity looked exceptionally good. Great timing passes, great routes. Fast, sure handed receivers. Very impressed.

 

Birds at time looked very good and at times, not too hot. Somewhat inconsistent, which is not all that unexpected given the competition between two new qbs.

 

Defensively, really the same as with the O. Trinity looked pretty solid. Highlands is searching for whom will play the d back positions. Other than Spencer Head, not much experience returning. Some good athletes competing for the spots, but much is to be learned. Glad we don't play CovCath until the end of the year as they will put our d backs to the test.

 

 

Withrow and LaSalle both looked good. LaSalle's qb is the real deal and they have some very fast receivers. Withrow's team looked very good at times. They were inconsistent, like Highlands, on offense. They love throwing the flare pass to the receiver out of the back field.

 

Birds certainly got a workout. LaSalle was not able to get there at the starting time, which forced the Birds to split into two squads: one playing Trinity and the other playing Withrow. By the end of the competition, there were some very tired Highlands players.

Any word on Mcgraw, Jr safety? When healthy he is top notch.

How did Trinity's D-Backs look? Some Trinity backers mention that D-Backs are generally Trinity's weakness every year. I don't necessarily agree but I will give them that it is not a strength.

LaSalle puts out some qbs. I know the last two were very, very good.

The Trinity d-backs came together better on this day. Great strides since the U of L tourney. Williams is learning. Now if he can locate his helmet...he may stay out of the doghouse

 

LaSalle has some athletes but I think they showed a lack of self control or discipline at times which will cost them against Moeller, Elder and Cincy St.X. Highlands has a couple of good receivers, one with some size similar to the CovCath player Trinity saw last week. Withrow has some speed guys and will make some noise in Cincy.

 

Trinity played from 5PM until 8PM. The JV or second string got in some good work but the first team offense really shined.

 

The most curious thing is it was 7 on 8 everytime Trinity was on offense. Apparently it is normal for the Cincy and Northern Ky teams to play eight on defense during these workouts. Trinity stayed with 7 on defense forcing more individual responsibility on the defenders. At times, the opposition had a blitzing end run by the QB at full speed. The 4 second rule was sporadically enforced. It was like street basketball, you had to call the coverage sack on yourself.......no spearing and very few knockdowns during the 3 hours. No fights and very few stare downs. Overall, very well organized and the 30 minute matches stayed on time.....no breaks.....
