West vs. Sandburg

When we totally dominate a team 531 yards to 260 yards usually we should win the game. However, when we make small mistakes we create big problems. We have seen our mistakes on film and we see that we must not make these mistakes if we want to be the team that we think we can be. I am very proud of our team, how they dominated Sandburg on Saturday, but once again we need to cut out our mistakes. Big game this Friday night where we get another chance to correct these things and come out against another great team in our conference to compete and Shock the conference!

West vs. Jacobs

Our running attack looked very strong for a while, and I thought we did some very good things on the offensive side of the ball Friday night. But, when we get the ball down to the 22, 19, 11, and 8 yard lines...We have to score! Defensively, on some plays, I thought we looked like a brick wall. However, after watching the film we found out that our guys have to trust their teammate that is right beside them and do the responsibility that they are to do. We had way too many breakdowns on both sides of the ball. For these reasons, we did not come away victorious. These breakdowns have already been addressed during film on Saturday, and our boys are going to come out Monday ready to fix our errors and prepare for Plainfield South on Saturday.
