Lake Co @ Memphis Hillcrest

[Devil_Alumni]

Against Sf, they tried throwing the ball quite a bit. Had a lot of mistakes with the weather. They have quite a bit of athletisicm on both sides of the ball to go along with size

 They loaded the box on defense but we had success to an extent running off tackle with our big boys. Y'all should match them speed for speed I believe. 

We (Sf) were tied 6 6 I believe in the 3rd quarter and Hillcrest got an intentional grounding penalty in the end zone to give us a safety and go up 8 6. Well on the ensuing kickoff with the punt style kick our kids seen the punt and took it as a normal punt. Let the ball roll and hillcrest downed the ball on the 2 yard line and punched it in. Player/coach mistake there that took any moment we had and you could tell it. We played in a panic the 4th quarter and let it go. 

 

Good luck to lake co, I'll be pulling for you guys!!

Unfortunately they will have only parental and alumni support. It's a small school in a big district on the verge of being closed. Good luck to LC. There's nothing like traveling into another city to play some football and it's good for the state. Had never heard of Lake County but now you guys are one of the schools I can add to my list of good football programs across the state.

Thanks Willie .Lake Co has won 2 state titles in football and about 4 runnerups .Also won a state title in basketball about 6 years ago and a runnerup the next year .Keep losing players to Dyersburg and Dyer Co.Best athlete is a senior at Dyersburg now.Anyway,thought Westwood had a better team than what I thought going in.Seemed to be well coached and represented themselves well on the field and after the game.Had a skirmish among a couple of their own players on the sidelines but probably was just maybe someone thinking a teammate not doing his job.

Weather this Friday is showing chance of thunderstorms with a high of 71 and a low of 51.Hopefully the rain comes early and it stays warm.

S/o to the other school in Da Haven still playing football. Hope that they can mess around and pull the upset. They gotta bring some offense to do it.

My score prediction 20-14 Hillcrest

Lake County wins this one to move into the semifinals for what will be the next three seasons.
