From Coach Brent Landrum: Our defense played one heck of a game. The linebackers of Matt Krehbiel, Cameron Reed, Jake Peterson, and Rob DeLoit played so well against a run-oriented offense. Our offensive line has given up one sack in three games over 60 pass attempts. That is a stat that will help you win a lot of football games. Our special teams will have to play their best game this coming Friday. The non-conference schedule is over. The three games prepared us well. Now we turn our attention to the SPC 3A schedule and specifically Fort Worth Country Day this Friday at home. If we continue to operate offensively at the level we have the last three games, we should have great success.
