NewCath's speed shouldn't be overlooked. Hayes and Hitchew can run w/ anyone and, more importantly, the D and O linemen can move. That's normally the difference against Holmes. The Bulldogs have some of the most athletic skill players in the area, but their lines aren't always the most agile.

 

I agree about NCC having speed. People get caught up in Holmes being this super fast team that can outrun anyone. Yes, they have speed but they aren't any faster than the top level teams like NCC, Highlands, CCH, Beechwood, etc. However, wait till you see the Scruggs kid run. There is fast and then there is FAST and Scruggs is roadrunner FAST.

I think this might be a closer game than what people think! The speed Holmes has should keep it close, also if they can keep NCC's offense off the field it could go in Holmes favor..NCC wins by 10

 

Holmes offense has struggled all year and now you think they can keep NCC's offense off of the field?

 

Unless NCC goes BW on them and lays the ball on the ground 6 times this will be a coaster for NC.

No doubt! I cannot think of anyone close to his speed! I think he is just a sophmore right?

How does he compare w/ Sheehan from Highlands?

I'd like to see Holmes win this game, but I just don't think it is going to happen

 

NCC 42

Holmes 20

I believe that NCC will prevail in this battle of the gridiron 45-17 .

I can tell you this.....Holmes plays hard and hits hard.

Someone told me Scruggs is the fastest kid in the state. I have no idea why they say that. I don't know if ran track or what. But it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they are right.

Wide receiver and running back from Trinity were 1 and 2 in state last year.
