As they say "great offenses start at center" and Jacob Manning didn't disappoint playing center, snapping strikes all day to their rookie QB. Long-snaps were done by Jason Waldenmeyer on PATs. The Birds' didn't punt all game due to nice runs by Jake True and Ian McGurn. Jake Meyer did a fine job as the extra-point kicker. Ian McGurn stepped in as the kicker and pounded the ball deep on kick-offs. The Birds' defense was solid, fumbles recovered by Ben Dupont and Jason Waldenmeyer. LBs Sam Chambers, Ben Lofland, Chris Martin and Luke Dressman had a good game. Cris Carson with good punt returns gave the Birds' great field position. The Birds' JV team is loaded with talented athletes, overall this was a nice TEAM WIN! The future looks bright for the Birds.

 

Thanks gameh.:thumb: Great to hear about the boys. I'm looking forward to this crew contributing big the next few years.:banana:

Since it was a team win, lets add all contributors who were not only major contributors to this game but all games throughout the season. Add McGhee, Rosenhagen,Trapp, Houston, Napier, Hollingsworth, Rouse, Sheehan, Gall and Schultz to the "team win". And least we forget that this jv team stepped it up when Towles was called to varsity duty, but with whom they will join forces again next year.
