temptation Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) I’ve been asking for parity in 6A since its inception…finally gotten it in terms of a state finals matchup…now the next step is for someone out of the metro area to be competitive in that state finals matchup.

Gees had the ball on the 1 with 4 downs to punch it in and we ran Tony West our speed back rather than Bruce Ore who was our big back that may have been able to use his size to push the pile. Give the credit to Valpo they didn't break on those four plays. But, dang that was a let down as well. Bruce was big, but he might have been the fifth back on the depth chart for that team. Post and Boehnlein were strong sturdy runners. T-West was, of course, the speed guy, and we had Tyler Iams and Frank Duong competing for reps, too. My recollection of that game is basically gone, but, I seem to remember Valpo making a goal line stand that you describe in regulation in the South end zone. They beat us in OT in the North end zone that year. Unfortunately, I've lost track of the highlight tapes from those years––so I can't verify anything. I'm much sharper when it comes to '02. Same thing happened that year except worse. We had at least three drives get killed inside Valpo's five. Same scenario as you described, except we ran all of the backs into stacked boxes in that game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still thought they were a tier above Crown Point. I know it was a very small dataset, but you could see in the scrimmage that Westfield was going to have trouble against Ben Davis. They could not keep BD's defensive line out of their offensive backfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll argue day and night that turf favors the faster team. I think Westfield would have suffered the same fate at Crown Point. I could be wrong, just my take.

But that's only if they have 15 on the kickoff team and the punt team. If special teams are even up, I'll give you your 14 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
