Final.

Much closer than I thought it would be.

It wasn't nearly that close. MC played around 40 players tonight. They dressed 56. I will say this however, Clinton Co. is a much improved team this year my hats are off to their coach he has done a good job. They also played with more class this year. I wish them luck with the rest of their season.

I didn't go, but head several reports from the game.

 

The game could have easily been a blowout and was 20-something to 6 at half. They said that McCreary just kept turning the ball over and had atleast 5, with Watts having 4 of his own. Luckily for McCreary, the competition wasn't too tough and maybe this will let them work their kinks out.

I looked at this score and was shocked to see Clinton with 26. They have to be improving over what they had last year.

McCreary came down to 3rd stringers (and some 4th stringers) with over 8 min. left in the game. Clinton Co. had 12 pts and one of their scores was a MC fumble in the endzone recovered by Clinton Co. They scored on the youngsters somewhere around the 6 min. mark and then recovered an onside kick which bounced of a kid who was sporting a cast wrapped in foam. They scored on the youngsters again around the 3 min mark to make it 26. After that MC put the starting "O" in to make sure they could run the clock out. As I said earlier, MC played somewhere around 40 players in this game. The head coach told the players (after the game) that Clinton Co. having 26 pts was his fault for coming down so early. MC had ove 300 yards rushing and somewhere around 100 yards passing (total yards between 450 and 500) and that was with 5 turnovers. There offense looked good most of the night. There "D" played well but still needs some work, they just didn't seem to be super aggressive. I am sure the coaches will be working on this while getting ready for W-burg. Congradulations to the Raiders on the win!

Sounds like McCreary was lucky they were playing a weak team.
