Sullivan Golden Arrows at Linton Miners

[kingtut]

Sullivan week is always a big week for the Miners.  This will be game number 107 in the series that began in 1904.  The series stands at Linton 53 Sullivan 51 with 2 ties.  This should be a great game as most of them are.

What a week 1 game for the Miners. I’m sure Sullivan is happy with their outcome too.

I think we’re in for another doozie this week. Southridge was still Southridge, but they were definitely down compared to some years. I thought Linton’s defense played well the whole game, and the offense played pretty decent the second half. I will say Southridge seemed to be out of shape which I was surprised to see from a program like that. The second half Linton would pound it a couple times then run a counter and it was nothing but green grass. I expect Sullivan to be a better team and to be more disciplined than Southridge was the second half. Would like to see Linton get their passing game going a little more, but with that said can’t be mad about the week 1 performance they had. Hopefully they clean things up with the turnovers and come out with the energy they had in the second half last week.

Go miners!

Always look forward to this meeting.  Always a lot of memories... not as many as King Tut... but quite a few.   This could be one of the better battles... and last year went into over time!!
