The Beechwood freshman team looked outstanding in winning their season opener. There are athletes everywhere and good depth. The Tigers rotated players in and out during the game and it did not look like the level of play dropped no matter who they put in.

 

Parker Mason scored twice, once on a 60 yard punt return. Avery Courtney also scored two rushing touchdowns and probably went for over 100 yards rushing. Xavier Campbell and Michael Hatfield had the other two touchdowns, both rushing scores.

 

Bryson Stortz must have carried the ball at least 25 times for Boone County. Good sized back and hard runner.

The future is bright in Ft. Mitchell! Great job Tigers!

This, at times, was tough to watch. The Tigers are a well oiled machine and BC had trouble keeping 11 men on the field. The Rebel QB extended a few drives with pure toughness but was offered little protection.

 

Beechwood's O line was opening holes three levels deep. QB Holliday was accurate and had time to make good decisions. The D was stingy. Xavier Campbell made runners pay. Both lines are large and in charge.

 

And, how about that Tiger kicker saving the shutout by tracking down a speedy Rebel returner just before he got into the endzone?
