Belton, Ellison, and Harker Heights

I agree with Ludwig

Like I said... All the Dawgs have to do is plug up the middle and Heights will not make a whole lot of yardage. They rely almost entirely on the running game, and one guy in particular.

Oh, and for Eagle fans that saw that player who was downed in the end zone with a serious injury last Friday night...

I talked to one of the players who go to our church and he said that he caught the ball in the end zone and then was hit with a block to the lower back and came down flat on his back, knocking the wind out of him and then bruising his spine a bit. He said he is OK, and would only be out for 3 or 4 days.

It surprised me to find out that there are 3 or 4 Eagles players in our teen Bible study group at church. Oh, and Coach Gray is their teacher....

That kid was a defensive player rushing in. He jumped when the QB was throwing the ball and was slammed to the ground by the offensive tackle that was blocking him. He was slammed on his back. It was one dangerous looking play. I'm glad the kid is going to be ok.

Lets just put flags on them and no physical contact. Glad he is ok, It's football, play on.

[sojourner truth]

Yeah, according to the kids I talked to it wasn't a really big deal. Most of the concern comes from the extreme amount of care that officials and medical staff take whenever someone gets hurt on the field. It took over 15 minutes to move the player, and thankfully the extra care demonstrated paid off for everyone concerned.

Of course, there were the usual folks who wanted them to just drag the kid off and get on with the game.... Sad.

The fans get a bit stupid at times. I saw my first fight over popcorn last week, and a pretty ugly fight it was too. Who would have ever thunk that a bag of popcorn could get 2 adults into a shoving and shouting match.

Sure glad the kids on the field play by the rules.... Well, almost anyway. I did see my first player ever ejected for taunting last week.

Heights would really shake up the spot if they beat Cove on Friday. Teams might need 4 district wins to get in this year.

Belton is killing shoemaker, 49-7, 3rd. Not even gonna follow it anymore.
