4A South Semi-State

[FridayNightLights]

Big matchup with the winner punching their ticket to LOS. I think the winner of this is the eventual state champ. Who do you like? Roncalli is playing the best football in class 4A currently, but it's hard to count out Gillin. I think Roncalli has the edge in this one. Hopefully I am wrong. Roncalli 28-24

Haven't seen Roncalli, but the score was pretty lopsided with a tough MV Fortville team I really thought might be the 4A champ this year based on how they looked last year when I saw them in person.  Mooresville just squeaked by Central last week.  I thought their size advantage would limit Central's running game.  It didn't.  My money would be on the Rebels this week by 10+.

Big question:  Is Mooresville QB back?   He left in he first half vs Central and did not return.

Heart says Mooresville...head says Roncalli.

Has Coach Gillin ever won a State Championship?

Nope.  Never even been to a title game.

Believe he went to title game in '89 with Tri West.....lost to Luers.  Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Click on the score above and it takes you to a link showing box score. Looks like Luers kicked an 18 yard FG with :40 left to win.

Makes me now wonder if Mooresville pulls it out tonight if that would be the longest time span between two state finals appearances.  31 years if my math is correct.

Oddly, first and only prior regional title for Mooresville was 1989, also. Anyone recall the coach? Then,  the Pioneers fell into the abyss in early 90's until Bless took reins. And it was Roncalli that kept them from winning title in 04. Hopefully, Jason Werner is not suited up Friday.

You made me look because that was the team that ended my playing days.  
 

yep, he coached that team.
