Catawba Valley 2A Early Outlook

Official high school football begins Monday so ready for football 2023!!Hopefully EB can turn the corner this year when you have been down for so many years in football it is still tough to change the culture. Coaches can only preach and teach this so much. The kids have to decide do they want football to be successful. Good Luck to all teams!

@Maiden Creek I talked to a bandy's kid at the gym today wanted to see his impressions on the football team this year. He was a graduated senior from last year. You mentioned the Vaughn kid you were talking about. He said he's 6'8 153 pounds. The biggest thing I took away from our conversation was that he didn't get the outside hype this year. He said from his friends that are still on the team they don't really expect to do much this year. I guess mentality goes a long way and kind of shows where theirs are

I’m hearing they having a QB battle also
 
Tomorrow officially kicks off the new season of high school football. May the devil reign supreme 😂
 
28 pages y’all we made 28 pages!! I been away from the page and I usually don’t get crunk up til the season starts, well a lot may do it actually.

We might hit 30 pages before some high strung CVACer starts the 1st page of “CVAC week 1” . I can’t take the honor of that so one of you guys need to. We’ve filled up a lot with alot of info. Some of it I did when track was going on and for fun we talked that up with what team displayed the best athletes and track was prob a good measuring stick for that. BH showed they have athletes, they took the conf crown and edged out East Burke. What blew my mind is a non CVAC team- Owen. My goodness we’re did some of these guys come from and their football team so terrible. Those cats had speedsters and judging from the scoring gap in Owens games, those guys prob don’t even play football. Just go to ncmilesplit and look up the meets they were in.

People mention you can win games with all running and no passing or very little passing . Well that’s true if the trenches are taken care of cause a lot of games are won in the trenches and from a good kicker.

I tell ya what, with the returning EB cast this year, and as close as those games were last year if EBs D can play more shutdown ball and not slack on any plays we can def be talking not conf champs but at least playoffs which they’ve missed for a very very long time. They’re carrying momentum from the very last game they played which was against West Caldwell and even though it was West Caldwell they were predicted to lose cause they had the worst stack of injuries from their top players going into that game with West coming into the game with an upswing and no injuries from Tyne it top tier players and EB took care of business and scored as much points or close to it against West as the top teams did. Momentum on their side as far as that goes from the last game played. Could be on to something here.

Anyone by now know if that big time freshman will be playing Varsity or he be testing the waters and taking it slow and doing JV for a year?
 
In an hour or 2, sunshine will be gleaming off shiney helmets and sweat will be watering the grass as the season officially starts.

Not as of now he has to get stronger. He is backing up the JV QB as of now i heard. !!He is fast but you have to be in that weight room first to getting ready for the varsity size players. We had one of the track kids that never lifted weights and now he has a quad injury you have to hit the weight room it helps in all sports!! they have had the all-world KJ Bryd working for the QB spot he has a arm and never stop working on his body strength, but we still have to catch the ball!! You can pass from this offence if you have the receivers. Ready for some football!!

Wow, KJ is going after the QB spot? Shoot yeah, the guy is mobile and an arm too!! What more could you ask for. Maybe the fast freshman can jump in at wide out mid season, provided he shows he can play with the big dogs
