The Breakdown:
Thomasville 1-1
After very fast-paced victory over their rival the Albemarle Bulldogs The Bulldogs of Thomasville ran into a bit of a speed bump down at southern lee last night. Thomasville is transitioning into a fast-paced spread offense that last night showed some growing pains. Several turnovers and bonehead penalties were the story of the game for the Bulldogs. Thomasville also has had a bit of a rough off season. They have lost two longtime assistants in Nick Sweitzer and Roger Bryant. Not to mention the strength and conditioning coach left around February to try semi pro football. Tville couldn't get another S&C coach hired until late May causing the Bulldogs to be behind many of their CCC and 2A opponents in in terms of strength and speed. Last night you could tell loosing 9/11 on defense from last season hurts but the 3rd quarter found tville settling down and out gaining southern lee. They will be prepared and ready to play come Friday night at cushwa. The Bulldogs have never lost to WM at home and only hold one loss all time vs the Warriors.
West Montgomery:
2-0
The Warriors have scored 100+ points in two games despite having lost 20+ seniors from last season. Their ability to pass the ball this year has greatly improved due to a change in play calling allowing the once heavy option team to become balanced and possibly very dangerous. Another solid offseason of running and lifting year round has put Wests youth in a great position despite the lack of size. The negatives for the Warriors however are the small young OL starting two sophomores and freshman and the newly installed 4-2-5 / 4-4 defense. Last year the Warriors defense ranked among the tops in the state basing out of an Odd front 3-3-5 type defense. The transition has shown trough their lack of size allowing 200+ yards rushing last night vs west Stanley. Many blown coverage's in the Air show put on by JM the week before.
All in all I expect a flat out old school YVC war between these two teams. The winner could win by 6 or 30 thats how young, talented and inexperienced these two teams are.
