No, it was a kickoff return and an interception return.

So, solid in the return game!

Highlands was totally outmanned.  Noon's passes hit a lot of receivers in the hands that were dropped.  Footsteps? He played like a sophomore  but then he is; future is bright.

Was this a one off game due to Covid or will Highlands play at Moeller next year?

One off game.  The schedule will be scaled down next year by Highlands standards.

There were several Pancake Blocks the other Night that People in the stands were screaming for Holding Penalties. Folks that's what it looks like to get Creamed by a good Offensive Lineman. The best hit of the year for HHS may have been Soph Charley Noon when he threw a late Int and had to make the tackle on Moeller's sideline.

The kid might need to play some Defense.....

They had plenty of size for sure; however they also did hold in the trenches and the JV line was also big and they have been taught how to hold.  The fans were classless and the scuffle on the sidelines in the JV game involved a player with 3 unsportsmanlike penalties.  As far as the Noon hit it was nice but Hartman and South may be upset with that comment.  You of all people like to tell your franchise QB to get out of bounds.  I would rather see him take a second read and look to throw the ball, than talk about a tackle after interception.

Fair assessment......It's not a hold if it's not Called. There could be a hold on every Offensive play....You know that! Right? I.E. "NFL" As far as the QB making a tackle comment rather than making a better read(appeasing the Armchair QB's that we all are) At least our so called Franchise QB didn't quit like several kids did on Friday.

I"m sure you have access to the Film. Watch it a little or maybe you already know. Several of those Players have Checked out. That's not Highlands Football! But your take is spot on. Maybe Noon should of Checked off to another receiver. Maybe he saw something we didn't. Only Noon knows what he saw and will grow form that.'

As far as your comment about Noon's hit. Yep, it was nice.....The other 2 Football players are supposed to be Big Hitters. They play Defense! Just thought Noon's efforts on his mistake deserved Notice from this ole Coach rather than mope over on the Sidelines like many. That's all!

...now, I'll start with this.  I don't have skin in the game here either way with either team.  I also am a referee at other levels and reviewed every play of this film for some of the officials on the field.  The "holds" that people were screaming for just weren't there.  The officiating crew did an outstanding job deciphering what rose to the level of a hold and what was just some hand-fighting between athletes.  It's one of the hardest calls to make in football and 99% of the people on the sidelines have no idea what a hold is and what it isn't.
