Jumper 1, you are a little biased. Of course, so am I. The best team in this County is by far Southwestern. Even with Cole, SHS needs to show me that they are a complete team. A great receiver is not going to win the games by himself. SWHS is a well balanced team with alot of individual very good athletes. Give us a little credit please. We did beat both the other schools last year, PC twice. We all lost seniors and what it boils down to who can reload the best. I think we have the best Junior class that SWHS has ever had and alot of those Kids have really stepped it up. The proof is in the pudding...:thumb:

 

I don't know about "by far". Both Somerset & PC would give SW a great game and I'm not sure if either or both wouldn't beat SW. PC has grown up alot and Somerset retained almost of its skilled players from what I can tell.

I maybe over stated "by far". I am a SWHS fan and maybe sometime a little zelous. No offense to the other Schools and their fans. If you have not seem SWHS then you cannot imagine the Warriors are that good of a team after losing 18 seniors. One thing that I question about your statement is that the most valuable of SHS skilled players(Ross Deaton) will definitely be missed especially by John Cole. Maybe Hall can step up, but Deaton left an alfully big pair of cleats to fill...

Deaton was a great QB, but Hall did not have any trouble getting the deep ball to Cole at North Laurel Friday.

Hall isn't worried about filling the shoes of Deaton, he will just go out there and play his game. He won't try to be Deaton. Keemo, I don't doubt that SW won't be a good team, but losing 18 seniors and having to fill all those spots is not easy.

Pulaski has a bright future, they have a very nice sophomore class and a good freshman class coming in this year.

... I was stating to another poster whom said that SHS had skilled players returning. I was merely suggesting that Deaton was not returning and he was a majoy player last year. I expect Chase to step in there a be a fine QB for the Jumpers. I would be remiss not to point out that we have alot of returning Varsity players that started last year. Not all of our graduating Seniors were starters last year. Granted we had a fine senior group, but also have the finest class of juniors that SWHS has ever had. This year we are not rebuilding, we are reloading...

I think that we could all argue who the better team is all football season. I'm still sticking with the Jumpers just for the fact that we return several key players from last years team plus the addition of Hall and Shoemaker, we are not in a position where we have to reload this year. Several people think that Somerset is all about Cole this year and we are not. Somerset showed that Friday night against a solid North Laurel squad by spreading the ball to several players.
