IMO believe Clinton will be fine this year. Cape Fear have a good team and to limit them untill the 4th is good defense from the dark horses. Hard to have a new coach new scheme and come out firing on all cylinders. Big FB back this week should help a lot. Good luck Friday night
I agree that it he Horses will be fine. Coach hasn’t had a lot of time to implement a new offense. And like I said last week, not having Jalen was a huge(pun intended) factor. Like DH#34 said, it’s hard to block 10 in the box and not completing a pass all night. Need to put some NOS in that offense and get it started!
I expect us to be physical and gain the upper hand on a from what i heard a smaller EB team then normal...if we can 5 yard them to death on offense and put together some.long scoring drives ill be satisfied with that i would like us to take some risk tho especially if they gonna put 10 in the box.....doesnt have to be anything complext but you would be amazed how much the defense would loosen up if we complete a couple of quick slants or outs......on defense im pretty confident in our front 7s ability to stop any run game thrown at them...think this is night and day from last years defensive front if its normal EB wing t i think defense shuts it down.....if i had to predict a score i would say Clinton 18 EB 6
a lot of difference between a 150-160 pound running back and a 240 pound running back hitting a hole, a WHOLE lot of difference. I think it would have a made a difference.

I know it’s way too early to tell but will this be a Clinton team that rides the defense and keeps a low scoring game or are they going to have some shootouts?
Its early but from what i seen we are going ti rely heavily on the defense unless they have some stuff we haven't seen yet....defense giving the offense short fields to work with...like speak in mic said definitely dont think we will be in many shootouts and if thats the case we probably on the wrong end of that scoreboard and if we get down a couple scores not really the offense built for coming back from behind.....im hoping the offense gets going thou
Bout to check out the JV game hopefully the JV finds some offensive success as they had the same problem as the varsity last week
JV starts with a defensive touchdown Westerbeek scoop and score 2 point conv good 8-0 Clinton JV early on
EB JV on a long drive to end the 1st have the ball inside the Clinton 10 its 3rd and 7 from the 7 when the 2nd quarter starts Clinton JV 8 EB JV 0
Seems like the boys are back on track. Thanks for the updates bro!
Dont remember seeing #3 last week for the JV he has looked good small kid but he is fast plays hard had some big runs and almost ran a kickoff back #7 needs to be kicking for varsity
Long TD pass King to Westerbeek about a 70 yard catch and run....Westerbeek #84 is quite a player aswell...some bright spots in the future.....Clinton JV 28 East JV 0 couple seconds left in 3rd
EB calling timeouts with seconds remaining i guess trying to make it alil more presentable i guess....16 seconds left.....game Clinton JV 28 EB JV 6...good job young fellas
Saw East Bladen in scrimmage verse a bad
Purnell Swett team. I know its scrimmage but
EB looked horrible losing 22-0 not threatening the endzone…
FYI, get used to that all run game from coach.
Glad to see Caba is doing well......darn...

JV turned it around this week and impressive on a short week of practice...hopefully varsity does the same Friday....im going to try and make more JV game atleast the home games normally i may go to one or two...been to both games so far this season and i been pleasee with the young guys definitely have something to build on...always laugh when posters say "who cares about JV" lol...where do you think your varsity guys started. Gonna definitely try my best to keep up with these guys better this season
JV's are very important, they're your players in the coming seasons. Clinton JV's won the conference last 2 seasons.
Westerbeek has caught a long touchdown passes in each of the first two games. Did an excellent job punting last week. Don't remember us punting tonight. Also he a main player at linebacker on the defense.The jv's have quite a few really good players.

He also had the fumble recovery for TD on the opening drive he did punt once tonight i believe and it was a good one
So he scored 2 of tonight's touchdowns. Heck of a game. His Dad and two Uncles were good DarkHorse players!
Who was kicking off? Him? Whoever it was a few of the kickoffs went over the receiver's head down near the goal line. I remember two going in the end zone which creates a dead ball.
The QB #7 he needs to be kicking for the varsity he has a pretty good leg
Who said that???...they play the games for a reason it will be a good one
Yeah he was doing the kicking for the JV was on varsity during the preseason scrimmages not sure if he is gonna be a 8 quarter guy...he definitely has a good leg haven't seen them attempt a extra point yet tho they been going for 2

EB JV was a "Deer in Headlights" in the 1st half last night. First high school game for the majority of the players. After some halftime adjustment and a good talking too, I thought the EB JV played a really good 2nd half. They have a lot work to do but the foundation is there to improve rapidly.
Add ECU to the list of offers for Kaba seems like everyone is jumping in now
