Ashland's defense is limiting the opposition to 12 points a game on average. The most any team has scored on them was by George Washington who put up 18. Seems like not many wanted to give GW credit but people who actually have to face them are glad to give them credit, I promise ya. If you take away the TD's scored on Ashland's JV players at the end of 3 of the games Ashland is only allowing 9 points a game. Rowan's big O line did give the Cats some problems but there were a lot of tackles for loss tonight by Ashland. Defense wins ballgames.

Tomcat line play on both sides of the ball has been very good too. We have lined up against some really big teams in Ironton, Russell and now Rowan and done great work in there and that's no exaggeration. If we can stay healthy and get Shannon Justice back in the lineup before the JC game it should be interesting.
