I would like for these two to merge and that would create a "monster". Not just for football; a merger may be a better use of educational resources as well as athletic $$$.

 

That school would be huge and basically all sports would be won by them. It wouldn't be much fun in the 1st region for other sports that are not classed.

Whew!!!

Talk about a powerhouse if those two combined.

Late in on this because I have been a bit busy this week, but I'll give my take.

 

Tilghman had its opportunities, but repeatedly blew its chances. The two major factors were conditioning and turnovers. PT dominated the first quarter, running the ball at will and pounding out 4-6 yards per carry; as well as controlling the pace on defense. But playing ironman football with most starters going both ways wore on them and cramps became a huge issue. As the game progressed it seemed to put PT into a different scheme of offense, which resulted in some awful interceptions. This gave MC the momentum it needed to cover the gap.

PT could have easily gone in at the half up 27-6, as a kick returned for a td was called back and they ran out of time on the MC 3 yard line as the fist half expired. These timing and miscues cost them, and the result was a overtime loss.

 

Overall though, I like the direction Duncan is taking them.

With our schedule I have no doubt we will take our lumps on a bumpy road, but Duncan seems to be a level-headed old school coach that can build the strong foundation we need to get PT headed in the right direction.
