[43 D]

Congratulations to North Laurel last night. You deserved to win. But, you will find out next Friday night where you really stand.

I do want to point a couple of things for people who aren't close to SW's program and maybe weren't actually at the game last night.

Other than one big run in the first quarter and a blown pass coverage at the end, SW's defense held a 3,000+ yard rushing team to very little yardage. NL had only scored 10 points with about 2 minutes left in the game. Our defense gave us a chance to win even though they stayed on the field all night because our offense couldn't get a first down or turned it over.

Without Edwards, our offense is horrible. He makes yardage out of nothing. Gover is a very good runner but Edwards will be one of the best to ever come out of this area. Most any decent defense holds us to very few points. Other than a couple of kids, our O line is not very good and not very strong. However, we continue to try and run over people. We have some other offensive weapons but we rarely use them and continue to run the same 4-5 plays over and over. Not to mention, 2 of our 4 losses (Bourbon & NL) might have been avoided had we attempted a field goal instead of going for it on 4th down when we know our offense is struggling.

With that being said, I am very glad Coach French came when he did and turned this team around. He is a great coach. They will continue to progress. Also, we had a good bunch of seniors who finished with two very good seasons and stayed with it even after the fiasco they had to endure their first two years. We are proud of them and may get to see a couple of them play on Saturdays next year.

SW Defense is vary good but the only reason they slowed down are run game was we passed a lot more. Nelson had only about 10 to 12 carries and QB had about the same. But SW had a vary good defense.
