final

Good showing by the Tigers.

 

Chris Thomas 7/10 passing, 1TD, and 130 yards. He also rushed 11 times for 103 and 2 TD's.

 

Emanuel Taylor 23 rushing attempts for 135 and a TD.

 

Cardell McGregor 2 carries 24 yards and 1 reception.

 

Antwain Loving 5 catches 88 yards and a TD.

 

Chad Brown, Darrick Dillard, and Eric Coleman all caught exleast 1 pass.

 

Jacob Johnson (MLB) 10 tackles (5 for loss)

 

Alex Hayes (KICKER) connected on a 40 yard FG in the 3rd.

 

 

Offensively Hoptown played all 3 of their QB's with each completeing a pass. Kyle Graham completed a big 3rd down pass after Thomas left with an injury to his leg but later returned. Hoptown started the game with Thomas at RB and Grahm at QB.

 

Defensively the Tigers continue to show progress. 2 of Calloway's scores came in the 5 minues of the 4th against the Tigers JV squad. They scored a TD midway through the 3rd on a 4th & goal from the 3. That score game against Hoptown's starting "D". That's for the Coaches from a certain Western, Ky school that had a bye week and made the trip to the SOC to see the Tigers play. NO Tigertalker is NOT the PA announcer at the SOC nor is he the Hopkinsville radio play by play man. But those 2 are probably honored and thrilled to have their names mentioned with Tigertalker. Tigertalker has eyes and ears all over this great state but now I know I'm big time when Me, Steve Lovelace, and Rusty Goble are the brunt of some humorous comments.

 

Tyrelle Willis is the best looking freshmen in Western, Ky and maybe the state. 6'1 230 runs hard and plays defense aggressively.

Emanuel Taylor (RB) Hopkinsville has moved in to 2nd place on the school's all time yards rushing list behind Curtis Pulley. E.T. is playing his second year of organized football. Taylor transferred from Colorado to Hopkinsville in October of 2004 when his parents were relocated through the millitary to Fort Campbell but did not play football.

 

Taylor is being recruited by the likes of UK, UL, Nevada, Arkansas, Oklahoma. West Virginia and MTSU.

This was pretty much the expected outcome, looks like Hoptown is going to more players instead of just the RB and QB like they did against Mayfield Not surprised by the score, grats on the win hoptown.

The New ERA had Emanuel Taylor with 182 yards on 22 carries. Antwain Loving could be the best receiver in WKY. He has open up the offense and is becoming a great leader. The T&T show now has a little Love with it.

Does Hoptown have everyone back now from injuries, suspensions, etc?
