Another big thing that made a difference was we have a lot of seniors and we were able to hold onto our composure. |
Experience at that position is vital. With nine games under his belt, and the leadership he's shown, he is a big key to leading the front seven. |
He's 100 percent now. He went to conditioning classes and you'd never know he was injured at all. |
He's a very intelligent player with speed and size and he hits. |
He's a very physical kid and is one of our toughest kids, especially on the pass rush side of things. |
In high school, it's a critical position. A bad snap is worth 50 yards of field position. |
In the second game we finally starting seeing the ball and hitting it better. It was a good experience for the kids to play this Hawaiian team. |
It was a rough game. They have good athletes, they are physical. We had our hands full, no question about it. But our defense won this game. |
It's been a while since our defense won a game. We were on the ropes. They probably had 35 snaps the first quarter and a half and our defense just hung in there, tough as nails. They had a great game. |
There was no rhythm to the entire game, really. |
We have some depth. That's something we haven't had in the past. |
We're looking for him to make good decisions and run our offense like he did last season. |
We're moving him to slot back and he'll get a lot of option pitches and run pass routes. He has great hands. |
