Coach Ballard's
Comments on the Winters Game It was a great win for the
Coleman Bluecats, and a great way to begin the 2011 season. The past
couple of years, we have struggled in finishing close ball games.
Friday night our kids finally finished a game and persevered when
things got tough. It was a great booster for our kids confidence. I
knew we would be able to match up with Winters physically, I am really
proud that we answered the call and beat them mentally as well. We by
no means played mistake free football, we have a great deal to work on
before next Friday night’s game.
Next week’s
ball game is versus Haskell Indians. They are a very disciplined team
that traditionally has been successful. Last year they caught the
injury bug and lost some key players that would have made them a force
to be reckoned with. Coach Colley does a great job in getting his kids
to play hard and physical. It will be a battle of two running teams,
and just like so many other games, it will be a game that will be
decided on who makes the fewest mistakes. Haskell’s offense is led by a
speedy Isaiah Llewellyn who is a returning starter. We will need to a
great job of keeping him contained or it could be a long night for us.
Defensively, Haskell returns several starters, led by a very quick
Jarred Escobedo, who does a great job of getting in the backfield and
disrupting plays. Varsity
