Jellico and Oneida hold duel practice.....

[possumcop]

Oneida and Jellico held a duel practice/situation scrimmage at Jellico Tues. may 17th, under the two new head coaches each team has. As usual Oneida showed their long standing tradition of quality 1-A playing ability with about 12 seniors. Jellico after a couple or three dismal seasons showed some sparks of strength and life. The final analysis - Oneida looks to be very good in Region 2-A and Jellico looks to improve to the point that they make the playoffs in Region 1-A without it being a one win default this year.

Should not expect anything less from a staff that has a Tony lambert.

With Lamberts' 50 defense, it was the noseman rather than the two traditional 40 tackles on defense. As usual it was the fullback on offense.

How many players do the Indians have out? I look for them to be very tough this season.

I was told Oakdale's varsity won 4-2, while Temple handled the Eagles' JV.

[possumcop]

Is Temple expected to do anything in their region this year? Same question about Oakdale?

[kingbrian3]

With as grueling a region that Oakdale competes in, it will be hard for the Eagles to make the playoffs this year, but Coach Childers has his team excited and they looked pretty good this spring.

I would just like to clear this up. The score of 4-2 in Oakdales favor is ridiculous and whoever told you that KingBrian obviously didnt go to the game. We did have some starters out on defense and Oakdale did score 2 times on us. Our offense only played against there starting defense a total of 3 times. We score the first 2 possesions on pass plays. The third drive down the field we were driving the ball, and one of our running backs had about a 15 yard run then fumbled it, turning the ball back to Oakdale. I am not saying any of this to disrespect Oakdale, because we (Temple) have nothing but respect for them, and wish them good luck.

We are expected to be on of the top picks in our region along with South Pittsburg and Whitwell. We have the run and shoot offense and try to spread the field out. Its different than any other offense in our region, making it difficult to defend , bc you just dont see it alot.

Will Temple be in any passing league action this summer or are they interested in a couple of passing game dates after the dead period?????
