I had breakfast at Erika’s place a few weeks ago for the first time. Outstanding!

Tipton’s is great. Popcorn is one of the best around and the Pork on a stick is a must!

Tipton has potential to be as good or better than they were a year ago. Majority of the defense is back from last year. The OL is all back, 1,000 yard rusher back and 2nd leading receiver. They are however breaking in a sophomore QB. At 6’3 230, he has a chance to be really good but is still getting his feet wet right now. First 2 weeks the starters played MAYBE 1 full game worth of minutes so it’s too early to tell just how good they are. One thing I do know is they’ll be well coached and well prepared.

In 17 and 18 I wanted to be North and we went South. Now I want to be South and we go North. The North in my opinion is much stronger this year.

Frankton was scrappy on defense. Looked like they had some hard nosed kids. Offensively they have a long ways to go though. If Frankton can slow down Dollar for Lapel then it could be a decent game, if not then it will be a long night.

Tipton will be playing at FrankTON week 1.

Tipton at Peru

Luers is LOADED. They will be tough to beat. Sectional 36 is loaded as well with Tipton, Eastbrook, and Lapel. All should be top 10 teams. Eastern lost a lot but will probably still be solid as well.

Fortunately we have some buyers. Hopefully not closed for long.

Tipton has a really nice core back next season. Biggest hole is at QB but we have a sophomore to be that I think will be up for the challenge. 4/5 of the OL will return as well as 1,000 yard rusher Carter and Powell at WR with over 500 yards. Defense should be stout again especially the front 7. Replacing Pearce at WR/S will be tough but should have some guys ready to step up. Heights is on the upswing in my opinion. They have a really good sophomore group(Juniors next year). Griffey is back at QB, Tuma at Wr and Ehman at RB. After improving quite a bit this year, I think they’ll take another step next year. Gonzoron’s boy is gonna be a good one! Western will probably take a step back after losing this loaded senior class but they’ll still have some dudes and should still be solid. Northwestern will be breaking in a new coach again but not sure we see much improvement from them. Cass should be much improved in year 2 of Mannering but not sure they have the talent they are accustomed to.

Luers had several drops including a walk in TD early in the game and 2 lost fumbles that helped dig them a whole but man can that offense score in a hurry. I fully expect them to win another State Title next weekend.
