We've got Jordan next week, which is another rivalry. After that, we have Southern. Nothing is going to come easy, but we hope to be ready for the challenge.
We're happy to be where we're at. But we didn't execute in the first half the way that we should have. We told them all week that Hillside had some good athletes and that one play could change the game.
It went the other way tonight. Jordan played a really good game. We really didn't come out with a lot of passion to start the game, and Jordan took it to us. They made the last big play, and that's what it came down to.
That was a big defensive play and was the difference in the game. This was an even game. One bounce of the ball the other way, and you'd be probably talking to their coach about winning this game.
He was glad to make the transition to receiver, and his work ethic just exploded. He runs routes real well, and he catches the ball with his hands. That sounds like a simple thing, but that's not always done. And he's just a heck of an athlete.
