Union County did it their way. They did it however they wanted, whenever they wanted. 

Tilghman was no match physically in the trenches and Union just imposed their will in any way that was possible. 

I knew Union could definitely win this one, but I didn't see this level of domination coming from a Union team who had really struggled on offense this year.

This score definitely caught my attention as I was scrolling down the page. What's the story here, @TilghmanPride? Just a bad night that snowballed, or is PT's youth starting to show?

 

Thanks for the updates @TilghmanPride!

You would be correct on both accounts. Once Tilghman got hit hard early, it just spiraled out of control. They continued with the sloppy play that began last week and by the end of the night, with the 5 turnovers tonight, that's 8 in 2 weeks. All 8 led to scores by the opposing team. 

That youth that looks so promising, at the end of the night are still young and inexperienced. When a physical team lines up, Tilghman is in trouble. This team has as few upperclassmen on a Tilghman team as I've seen.

It's just a combination of basically everything that could go wrong did, and that definitely includes getting outcoached across the board. 

Union reminded me of Tilghman the last 3 seasons. They just ran the ball at will wherever they wanted to. 

I think another big factor in it all is that they miss safety Cam Marshall more than they realize. He's a ballhawk and he made up for a lot of missed plays on defense. You notice a big difference without him out there.

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but the bolded is hard to overcome against anybody. Gotta clean up the turnovers, but that's easier said than done with a young team.

It seems like we’ve seen more of these type games where non traditional teams has beaten traditional powers than any season I can ever remember maybe it’s the Covid that’s turned everything upside down.
