Final

Hopkinsville held in there til the final 7:00 minutes. Good effort by the Tigers though. Had to play their JV offense tonight and start a Freshmen RB who hasn't been in a varsity game all year.

 

With 5 starters out for Hopkinsville Christian Co. had success on the ground with VoShaun Banks. Christian Co.'s new found running game has taken pressure off QB Bauer. They've got the outside playmakers offensively but Banks has carried the load the last 3-4 weeks.

 

FYI: Pat Gates, Steve Lovelace, John Faulk, and Tony McCombs. WESTSIDER is my very own witness that I am NOT Rusty Goble.

I'll vouch for you, Rusty ... :lol:

 

Just kidding.

Why did they play the J.V? And what happened to he five starters? Injuries?

Wish I'd known that before I made my contest pick.

 

Seriously, thats tough to overcome, especially in the playoffs. Sounds like the Tigers gave it a great effort.

 

Congratulations to Christian Co.

Starting RB/LB Cardell McGregor and backup NG/OL Joe King were out for a violation of team rules.

 

Starting CB and backup RB DeShawn Johnson was suspended for a seperate incident.

 

Starting NG and their best defensive player Dee Allen was also out.

 

Coach Jones has the kids walk a fine line and isn't afraid to punish them when it's called for. Dixie Jones played no execuses and blamed himself for the loss while praising the offenses efforts.

 

The game was decided by the Christian Co. O-Line where they gave Banks the holes and creases he needed to get into the Tigers secondary.

 

Couple of bright sides for the Tigers was their passing game led by Senior QB Kyle Graham who threw for 308 yards. And Freshmen RB Jeremy Coleman 6'1 195 showed signs of a very promising future. This was his 1st varsity action of the year. He got 1 rushing TD while getting 2 others called back on penalties.

I really like the way Victor Mouldon plays. He's fun to watch play on both sides of the football. He needs more touches on offense.
