Nothing apparent during the game. He played every snap without any obvious injury. They did say on the news that it was likely a meniscus, which would make sense given the short time frame for recovery.

Had a minor surgery this week. Should be ok for post season.

VL 47 Harrison 0 final Hats off to Lincoln for taking care of business despite the injury to Hunt. Mentally tough group of kids.

Lincoln 41 Harrison 0 mid 3rd Upsets brewing early but it looks like Reitz and Memorial will hang on

Truth. But 1979 was the end of Castle/VL when the Big 8 was formed in 1980. They never faced one another again until 2020.

VL 26. Castle 21 final

Bob Clayton..truly one of the remarkable coaches in the history of Indiana High School football. Playing in that era...there was an aura around HH football that felt untouchable. Those late 90's early 2000 teams were the best of the best. To be able to defeat the Patriots in 2005 at the Jungle was one of the hallmarks of my playing career...and that HH team still went on to semi state in an OT loss to Chatard.

Surely the famed GS Football doesn't need media validation at this point...I can smell the positive vibes 30 miles up 41. There's plenty to go around.

I generally like to pick the spreads...but JH, Calpreps, Massey have been all over the place this season. Memorial over Harrison running clock Jasper over MD by a score Reitz over Central running clock North over Bosse 2 scores ALICES over the Knights in the friendly confines of Inman Field...take it to the bank

Impressed with what Bosse was able to do tonight. You could really see the potential in their offense Week 1. I didn't expect quite what we've seen the last 2 weeks, but not totally shocked either. Going to be interesting to see how they continue to improve over the next 6 weeks. Lincoln/MD... I'll admit this one was a little closer than what the Alices probably envisioned. Lincoln got out to a 14-0 lead by the end of 1 and looked like they might comfortably pull away with no sign of resistance from MD. But from the 2nd q on, it was a totally different ball game. Not sure who started at QB for the Wildcats against Castle, but Tate Mallory was exceptional tonight. There were numerous plays where Lincoln was in a good defense/coverage and he simply made a great throw or got to the edge when protection broke down. Had me shaking my head thinking he's only a sophomore. But in the end, VL seemed to make all the plays when they needed them to keep MD at arms length. No doubt there are things that need improved upon, but they were able to win an ugly game on the road against a quality program.

Thank you for the work put in...now if those Dubios County turds would share their intel like the rest of us! LOL

The Reitz D just looked that good plain and simple. We knew Lincoln was going to be challenged early on with all new faces at WR...they needed to be pretty dominant on the ground to loosen the Panther D up and there just weren't enough of those big chunk plays like we've seen with Hunt. I think the Lincoln passing game can still be good as it was against Bosse, but they have to be more effective on the ground when playing upper tier competition. And the stats for the defense are totally meaningless...Reitz will make a fool of many this season. I posed the question last Friday...who do you defend?? Same players, same two offenses with Davies and Vera...less sloppiness, less mistakes than what I saw from a year ago.

Gotta match that urgency if you're Lincoln, and I think they will. Much disappointment from last week's result. MD will be ready

They jumped out 14-0 by the end of 1. Looked like it could get away from Lincoln but their defense stiffened the final 3q…just couldn’t get Reitz off the field on several drives. Hoping for a better outcome on the return trip to The Bowl next Friday.

You really just don’t know what North team is gonna show. Nice convincing win for Memorial.

Reitz defense much improved. Held Hunt in check for most of the night. Davies pin point accurate. Vera and Summers made their presence felt as well..just too many guys to defend. Not to mention a boom stick at kicker. Lincoln squandered an early opportunity to set the tone when they drove fairly easily into Reitz territory on the first possession. It ended with a holding penalty followed with back-to-back bad snaps. And from there they had to play catch-up all night.

VL/Reitz broadcast not on the air waves as of yet…assuming there are further delays??

Memorial v Jasper is the most meaningless game to me in Week 1. It rarely projects how both teams will fare through the course of a season. Both will be totally different teams by the time Lincoln sees them come Week 8/9. And this is an obstacle the Alices must conquer in 2023.

Hunt was actually more impressive with his arm tonight. 12/17 for 157 and 3 TDs with one score on the ground…in just one half of play. There were questions about the receiver position all offseason for Lincoln, but you wouldn’t have known at least for one night. Bosse QB Elijah Wagner gave the defense fits at times. He was most dangerous when a play broke down and was able to shift his way through to the second level. He’s without a doubt a top athlete in the conference.

Final from Inman VL 49 Bosse 30 Game went to running clock when it was 49-8 early in 2nd half.

Lincoln did not blow me away this evening...for what its worth in a scrimmage. Hunt looked incredible but the offense as a whole was a little underwhelming in the early going. The defense, however, was solid all the way through. Not much else to take away with so many basic plays and schemes.

1 is a popular pick as most would expect. 8-10 is pretty predictable. 2-7 a total crap shoot. Memorial, Castle, Jasper you can't rule out 6 or 7 wins on any given year...MD a little too high in their standings. VL should break the 5 win mark with what they return..IMO

Been a member here for several years....did not know this. What a loss for the Indiana football community. Thanks for sharing.

Fair assessment...Lincoln has to take last year's lessons and find a way to put consistent quarters together, especially on the road. I never felt the 2022 team was outmatched at any point through the conference season, but they made too many critical mistakes that you simply can't overcome in this league. And while they showed much resiliency in the early part of the schedule, that seemed to fade down the stretch.
