DeSales held off somewhat of a large charge by the Knights.

 

DeSales is looking real good in 2A.

The Good- Defensive front 7 looking good, Running the ball really nice(the Watkins kid had a great game, QB too), blocking much improved. The Bad- Misfires, penalties still nagging DeSales, specially in the first half.....again another slow start. The Ugly- Lex. Cath PA anouncer not giving DeSales players credit over the PA (he stayed silent on anything positive the Colts did in the 2nd half) oh well....

Congrats COLTS.

Nice win.

Keep it going..

Lexington Catholic has a BEAUTIFUL facility, and that scoreboard...wow!!! That thing cost a penny or two.

Coltcity gave a pretty good synopsis. DeSales continuously shot themselves in the foot - five penalties in the first quarter, probably ten or more in the game. Four fumbles. Special teams was TERRIBLE - Lex Cath had a kickoff return for a TD that represented their only points until they scored with less than a minute to go in the third quarter. Then the Colts practically ran away from a LexCath onside kick like it was a hand grenade. And, of course, after going up 31-7, they went to the prevent defense, which does what it always does. It turned a dominating defensive performance for three quarters into three TDs for Lex Cath in the final 13 minutes.

HOWEVER...Lexington Catholic's defense had no answers for the Colt offense. Literally, the only times DeSales didn't score was when they fumbled or penalized themselves into a position behind the chains. Offensively, LexCath could do nothing. The Colts are REALLY fast on defense. Except for one drive using the two-minute offense right before halftime, it was the 4th quarter before Lex Cath had a drive with more than one first down.

Coach Davis will have some good film to use on playing all four quarters. LexCath is really talented - QB was picking DeSales apart in the prevent, and they had a solid receiving core. But it was no match in the trenches.

Congrats COLTS.

Nice win.

Keep it going..

 

I concur. The emergence of the total DeSales high school is an impressive success story.

Now. There was a lot of good. However this officiating crew was terrible. It looked blatant that they would not call their o-line for holding. They were grabbing our ends all night long.

Also. You think maybe you guys can invest in a leaf blower and clean off the visiting side?

Ditto on their first class field & scoreboard. Their fans were very friendly too. Good luck LC for the rest of your season. ...

:lol2: It is a great facility but the visitor's side never gets the love of the home side!
