Any word on QB’s?  Who started? Who looked good?

Harney played nearly all of the game as QB1, at least up until the point I stopped getting updates.  He also started on defense.

I love it! Harney is a stud!

For those that watched this scrimmage, what are your thoughts on North Laurel?

I've heard varied predictions on that team and I'm just wondering what they look like.

Harney is a great HS athlete.  D1 talent but D3 size.  I expect that he will have a great season this year both on the field and on the hardwood.

Queen.

Missed the scrimmage while I was in NYC....my phone was out of commission but I made pals with one of the bellmen in the lobby of my hotel and we listened to the first half on his phone, lol.

Harney started at QB for the Colonels. From the sound of things there was a little bit of knocking the dust off in the 1Q as far as the Colonels' offense is concerned, they got into much better form in the 2Q. Cov Cath had 11 players on the sideline wearing their civies for the scrimmage, including some key starters - leading tackler Tate Kruer among them. Most were for minor injuries and the coaching staff made the decision to sit them for the scrimmage rather than risking any exacerbation of injuries prior to the actual season starting.

Cov Cath's defense was lights out against the run game. North Laurel has a very good QB with a serious arm, and a couple of very fast receivers, so they were able to get off a handful of nice passing plays, including an 80+ yard TD pass to score first in the scrimmage. The TD came early in the 2Q.

Cov Cath scored three times in the 2Q. The first TD came after Dylan Gaiser had a great return to about the NL 40 yard line. Harney had a great pass for about 18 yards to Nick Krallman and they were at the edge of the redzone. The next play was just outside of the 20 yard line. First down was a pass play that NL had covered well, so Harney tucked the ball to scramble, was hit at the 6 or 7 yard line, fumbled the ball, and then jumped on his own fumble in the endzone for a TD. The second touchdown was a 3 yard run by Logan Sanning off of a really nice seal to block from Andrew Bessler. Third TD was on a 27 yard pass play to Logan Sanning with 12 seconds remaining in the half. Weitzel had kickoff duties for the first two quarters as well as all 3 of the first half PAT's, so it appears for now he is retaining his job as starting kicker over Ryan Urti, the transfer kicker from Charlotte Catholic in North Carolina.

3Q Emmett Queen came in at QB, I believe he was the only QB the entire quarter. He had a couple of mishandled snaps from the shotgun, including a couple that resulted in a loss of 5 or 6 yards. I wasn't watching so I don't know if those were more an issue of the snaps being off the mark, or Queen miscues on Queen's part. Definitely sounded like something to work on, though. Cov Cath punted to finish their first drive. The second drive for Cov Cath stalled inside of the NL 10 yard after a 1st and goal. 3rd down was another shotgun snap that ended up with Queen falling on the ball in the backfield after a bad snap exchange. Ryan Urti was brought on for a field goal to put Cov Cath up 24-7.

4Q was all JV and freshman action.

Looked like good snaps from where I was sitting so I don't know what the issue was.

I was at the game Friday.  North Laurel did not look good on offense or defense.  I'm not sure who they have scheduled this year, but it could be a long season for them at all levels.  

On the flip side CCH didn't look great either.   On offense the O-line seemed good, the passing game was okay, and the running game was poor at best.  I didn't see any of the stats if there are any, but our offense needs some work.   

On the defensive side of the ball, I thought we looked good for where we are at in the season.  The 7 points that North Laurel scored came off of a long pass play where I suspect the defender was in the wrong coverage.  There were other lesser mistakes that are very fixable considering the number of new faces at new positions on the field.  Overall, I think the scrimmage accomplished it's purpose of getting some of these guys a little game experience before the season starts and knocking the rust off for the guys that played a lot last year.   Looking forward to Ryle this week.  Go Colonels!

Thanks, that's more in line with what I expected. Someone recently told me that NL was going to be good this year and I was skeptical to say the least. This kinda confirms my original thoughts on them.

 

CCH’s top receiver is out for at least a month so time for Bradshaw and Brooks to step up.
