Covington Holy Cross 48 - Somerset 14

Crossback Wrote:Great game first half by both teams. Second half was all HC. Somerset has a good team that would be better if they worried as much about making a pkay as they do trying to hit hard and try to hurt the other team. The second hakf they switched from pkaying their game to trying to hurt our players so we could not play ours, that is why they lost. Keep your focus on the game and you could have kept it closer.

First off, I'm going to say that I agree the way our players reacted in the second half was unacceptable. That is not the way Somerset football is played and I have no shame in admitting that I was not happy about the way they handled themselves at all. As for trying to hurt your players, I think that is a little bit of a stretch. Things got chippy, mostly by us I will admit, but I don't ever remember seeing a player for either side trying to take people out of the game. The worst incident I remember was when Lange and an HC player got into it after going to the ground in the backfield and a Somerset lineman jumped in trying to knock the HC guy off of him, as any lineman would do for their quarterback.

Again I will admit our players lost their composure where they have got to stay disciplined at the end of the big games like this. They were obviously getting frustrated by all of the penalties and the growing margin in the second half, but nobody was trying to intentionally hurt players to get back in the game or to take them out for next week.

We did not lose because we were unsuccessful at hurting your players.
