He went to some camps and got some additional technique this summer, and he's really started to blossom. I think it finally hit him what we had been telling him. He got some input from college coaches that he has a chance to be really special.
I'm not saying we wore anybody down, but I know we're in pretty good shape. And I thought we started to control the line of scrimmage late third quarter and especially the fourth quarter.
He potentially could be as good of an athlete as has ever played sports in this town. And we've had some super kids.
It means we're 3-0. They are a great football team, and it's going to give us some confidence.
He's supposed to be in a 5-2. Then we yelled 4-3 at the last second. Then he jumps back and plays a middle linebacker.
He would outwork anybody, and that's what Caleb is starting to figure out.
They came down here two years ago and we had them 8-6 late in the first half. Then within two minutes they scored two touchdowns and we never recovered.
I've never had a varsity touchdown before and to come out and get two on defense is big. It's good to know you can help the team win without having a big impact on offense.
The defense was really playing good football. They are swarming to the ball and improving each week.
Give them credit, they played very good defense the first half, and then we saw some things we though would be effective against them. It was a great gut check at that point.
