After watching NP vs Hobart Friday night, they are the real deal. Defense is stellar, hard nosed and active. I know this a bit off topic; however, this is not the first time this has happened. They, NP, came out of the tunnel with blood in their eyes. Hobart, being a young team, Sophomore heavy has to move the marker to make it out of the Sectional next year. By the time Hobart caught up the running clock was instituted. Being down 49-12 at the half was a huge hurdle to overcome in the second half. Give Hobart credit to finish 49-28.
