I'm home Buddy. :clap:

 

The St. X. varsity looked very impressive against a very talented Fern Creek team tonight. Although a number of defensive starters did not play due to injuries, St. X. prevailed 7 TD's to 1.

 

There is a awful lot of speed on this team, and it was fully displayed tonight. Besides the four-headed dragon (Neal, Montano, McMurray, and Haden) at RB, QB Brian Buehner also broke for some long runs and looked very sharp throwing the ball. The OL looked like it was in mid-season form.

 

Defensively, the Tigers were swarming to the ball and raising havoc with the Fern Creek offense. I was really glad to see Bryan Hynes playing a lot of QB for Fern Creek, because he has a top-notch arm and scrambling ability, which really made the X-men stay on their toes.

 

Wyatt Gray was booming the ball deep into the end on his kickoffs. His only punt during the scrimmage was a high and very long spiral.

 

With this test behind them, the Tigers next scrimmage what may be the best 6A team out in the state, Henry Clay.

 

I'm looking forward to another exciting season. :thumb:

How did the Hynes kid look at quarterback for Fern Creek? Did he start?

Hynes did not start, but came in on the 3rd Fern Creek series. He has a very strong arm and throws a nice spiral, but St. X.'s defense was putting so much pressure on him that he didn't have a lot of time. Fern Creek's line needs a lot of work to provide better protection for him. But then again, St. X.'s defense is a lot better than most any other team they will face.

Great job St.X Tigers!

St.X played well. I'm not gonna get to excited yet. Fern Creek looked very confused on defense and had nothing that even resembled a rushing attack. St.X secondary needs some work. X lost a ton of talent due to graduation, not sure what to make of the 2009 version.
