Belfry led 28-6 but let Waggener make it interesting at the Half.

 

Pirates put the hammer down and score 35 points in the 3rd to blow it open.

 

Monumental playoff game at Central next.

Belfry All-State Mr. Everything Derek Wellman suffered a lower leg injury early in the game and did not return

 

Kid is tough as nails, will be interesting to see if he plays next week and if so how effective he is. Sophomore Peyton Hensley was superb in relief on offense.

Waggener played Brents at WR the bulk of the game, especially eary, and didn't get the ball in his hands near enough. They finally put him back at QB and he was really fun to watch. I'd hate to try and defend him, he's just so elusive. The RB Johnson and the QB Sickles are ball players too. They are about as explosive a trio as you could hope to watch.

 

The Pirates interior run D has been a bit of an issue all season. Against heavy run teams they have been able to shore it up, but with a dual threat team that spread you out, they have given up some yardage, and some points. They may just have to outscore people from here on out.

 

I can't say enough about the offensive line. Those guys are getting it done and have exceeded expectations all season. Kudos.

 

A great win tonight and now on to Central.

 

I hope Wellman's injury isn't very serious, I'd hate to see that kid's season cut short.
