We have made some improvement on offense with new QB and some changes on O-line. Getting our top runningback back is going to add some dept in the rushing position. Defense gave up a long run and a long pass, other then that they were very strong again....nice win over Bluegrasspreps 5A #4 team....

Big win for the Colts. They came out dominant and cruised to a 20-0 halftime lead. The change at QB has been big - in the offense we run, we have to have a mobile QB, and this kid fits that bill and is extremely accurate as a passer. This was also the first game back for one of our leading rushers from last year. He looked good in his return. Another weapon.

 

The season is progressing as I had hoped. Everyone is now back in the lineup, and young players are stepping up everywhere. Sophomore QB threw two bombs to our newest weapon, a freshman WR who has flames coming off his heels. Two catches for 73 yards - the first a diving catch and the second going up over defenders. He dropped two passes and a punt last week, but then caught a tipped pass on defense and returned it 80-plus yards for a pick six. The kid is electric.

 

Defensively, we held FC to only seven first downs. Their first score came on a third and short where we stacked the box and the RB broke through. #16 (mentioned in another comment) tracked him down at the 2 after being 15 yards behind, and they punched it in from there. Second score came on a long pass. Safety gambled and went for the pick, WR caught it and off to the races...UNTIL #16 (again) chased him down from the opposite side of the field. Again, FC punched it in from inside the 5. Loved the effort on both of those plays. Kid is not only talented but showed extreme effort on those two plays.

 

Overall, we're an entirely different team than the one that played Ballard a few weeks back. Now it's a bye week, then North Hardin and CAL. Let's keep it rolling boys!!!
