The Collinsville
Jr. Hi Football program showed signs of a “chivalry” this
past Thursday night in their season opener against the Claremore Zebras.
All three games were very evenly matched in talent and effort. The competition
and sportsmanship display through out the night was a complement to
the game of Football and athletic competition.
The 7th grade was explosive on offense. With only 4 offensive plays
in the first quarter the Cardinals lead 14-0 at the half. The defense
bowed up in second half and crushed the ground game of the Zebras. Final
score, 20-6. No injuries were reported.
The 8th grade DEFENSE was devastating to the Zebras. The defense captured
and kept captive the Zebra offense all night long. The offense of the
Cardinals punished the Zebra defense with both the air assault and ground
attack. The kicking game was outstanding! Final score, 28-6. No injuries
were reported.
The 9th grade game was two totally different styles
of offenses on the field. The Cardinals “spread attack” vs
the ground game of the Zebras. Claremore had a tough running back that
was hard to tackle. The Cardinals entered the game with several key
players missing due to injuries over the past several days. The Cardinal
offense had several nice drives during the contest but could not finish
in the zone. Zebras win, 27-0.
All three teams will continue to work on the fundamentals
of blocking and tackling, as they prepare for this Thursdays game against
the Tulsa Kelley Comets. The contest is at Tulsa Kelley and games begin
at 5:00pm.
