Great post. I totally agree-if Orrville ever gets down by 2 or more scores in a game in its over. They have no big threat down the field. I think Coach Davault had the perfect gameplan and I would like to see a time of possession stat because we kept their offense off the field and that was great. The boys need to keep this energy level all year as RR1 said every game from here on Out will get tougher. NW blew a big lead last nite and will not be happy when they get to Orrville next week so no time for a lack luster game. Again great job coaches, players, and fans great turn out. On the flip side that Carmichael boy is just a gamer! He tried to win the game by himself and almost did. If that onside kick goes their way they win. Good game!Red Rider;1496652 wrote:Great, great win. Still need to be very concerned about depth. One play in particular was very nearly disaster. Ritchie was starting to cramp up on D but either no one saw it or they just hoped they wouldn't take advantage of it. Well, the next play they went deep at him and it paid off. Nothing he could do, he was on the field all night and finally his leg gave out. Gotta find a way to give some players rest. As we know it doesn't get easier. Domer didn't get a lot of use...why can't he give some DBs a rest.
Would have loved to see Trevor lead blocking in the backfield when we had 4 chances at the end zone inside the 5 and couldn't punch in.
Luke had no time at all to throw the ball. It gets snapped and 1-2 guys were on him seemingly untouched. We gotta do better in that area. We HAVE to be able to pass the ball if we hope to win 2-3 more games.
BUT, the team really looked great in the first quarter. It could have been a blowout had we been able to sustain that energy. If we had maybe 5 more average varsity players we would be set. I know we have 5 kids walking the halls at OHS that could have helped this team and played a lot. What a difference they would make. Frustrating.
