How many are grade repeaters. :taz:

 

Im just kidding everyone !!!! LOL

 

This is very impressive for the Beechies. From what I heard the Boone Co team is legit and if they handled them this way and Ru gave his blessing (although he is a former Beechie) then they must be very good.

 

None..Actually the qb just turned 13 I believe..

Thanks but honestly I was just kidding. Are these all kids that used to play with the Spartans?

I believe so except for Schmidt. I think he played for South Kenton.

emperor, I was there and I like your summary.

 

Q11, yes I played and coached at Beechwood many years ago but my son plays for Boone's Frosh team so the last thing I wanted to do was get on here and brag about the Tigers but they were really impressive.

 

I wish Beechwood played the big school schedule this year because I would like to see them play Highlands, CovCath and Dixie, they would all be great games.

 

I don't think Boone is done for the year but they did suffer four injuries in the game last night (and no this is not why Boone lost, they got outplayed) so we will have to see.

 

And I think it is worth saying one more time, Beechwood's Frosh coaching staff did an excellent job. Offense, defense, special teams, just everything, they should be proud.

The 8th grade class at Beechwood is very special.. The scarey thing is they are even better at baseball..I heard Ethan Stringer is at Beechwood now also...Wow!!!!

I heard Fieger and Combs just turned 13 in August so they could have been 7th graders. Schmidt (now freshman) played 8th grade with Spartans. Combs came to Beechwood last year, don't know where he played prior. A lot of the 8/9th graders were Spartans. A few played in the FTJFL.

I remember 2 years ago when Cooper and Beechwood frosh teams played and I was impressed with Beechwood's coaching. Although Cooper won both games, Beechwood coaches had good game plans and almost pulled off the win in the 1st game.

Hats off to Beechwood, they played a great game. Beechwood is well coached and played nearly mistake free football and they beat Boone in all phases of the game. They were really impressive.

 

Some of the Beechwood players that caught my eye were: Kyle Fieger, Brett Slusher, Jake Schmidt, Jonathon Stokes, Jackson Mahorney, and Brayden Combs. Nice play guys!

 

The future is bright in Fort Mitchell.

 

 

I do not normally post in the football forum but was compelled to on this occasion as I was in attendance. First hats off to Beechwood this was a very good game and a lot closer than the score shows. To say that Beechwood beat Boone in "all phases of the game” in my opinion is not accurate. Boone made mistakes and killed themselves but were really never out of it. Boone ran the ball very well and with much success. They were stopped 3 teams inside the 20 once by interception and twice on the goal line by great defense on Beechwoods part. In the second half I do not think Beechwood made it across the 50 yard line except for on the scoring punt return play. Boone's Defense did its job in the second half the offense just couldn't convert. I do not have the official stats but this game was much closer and more evenly matched than the score shows. I will agree the better coached team won in this case. There were several decisions on the Boone side that left me shaking my head. For example that lack of utilizing the mismatch on occasion in the WR role on the left side. When you have a receiver that is a foot taller than the defender who is pointing that receiver to the outside from the line try to loft one over the top and let them go get it, at least once. Passing on 3rd down from the 2 yard line basically wasting a down when your run game got you there. Now I am not a football coach and do not know what occurs in practice so my observations hopefully are taken as that.

coach14, I can take the Boone side too. And that side is there is no way Boone should have lost to Beechwood, the game was closer than the score indicated but Boone shot themselves in the foot so many times all they had left was two nubs. Beechwood couldn't run the ball on Boone, Boone didn't convert their red zone chances, Beechwood got lucky, the dog ate my homework, etc...

Agreed!

Fieger, Slusher and Combs are 8th graders on Guru's list.

 

I will try to give you a "TOG" summary when I can get it together.

 

Nice job on the summary and thank you. Just wish more would do that for the JV and Frosh games.:thumb:

-it was kickoff return not punt return. It basically negated the Boone score. In fact, since BW converted the PAT and Boone didn't it extended the lead.

 

-Boone ate up a ton of time on the touchdown drive and the drive that ended with the interception at the beginning of the 4th quarter. The only time that Beechwood had the ball in the 3rd quarter was during the kickoff return (approx 15 seconds). I think Boone even used 3-4 minutes for the 30 yd drive that ended on the 1 yd line. I think that only really left 2-3 possessions for Beechwood in the 4th quarter.

 

-In the fourth quarter I think Beechwood stayed conservative knowing it would take Boone lots of time to score and being up 14 points they had the luxury of being able to do that.

 

-The game was won in the first 15 minutes of the game when Beechwood went after Boone. I think it surprised them.

 

-What were the Boone mistakes? Beechwood could have had the fatal error after Boone went 3 and out on their first drive and got hit by the short punt allowing Boone to cross midfield and continue the drive.

Correct it was a kickoff return. The mistakes were mentioned in my previous post and yes you are correct the first 15 minutes of the game were the deciding factor.
