Spartans Fought.... Aviators Ran (L10-23)


Momentum[moh-men-tuhm] –noun, plural
1. force or speed of movement; impetus, as of a physical object or course of events: The car gained momentum going downhill. Her career lost momentum after two unsuccessful films.

I'm so sorry to take you back to English class, but if you want one word to describe last friday night's game..... That has to be the word.

No Question About It
I was bummed out. I mean... We were up 10 in the 1st...---So Anyway. After a few minutes I start to realize it wasn't a bad game at all.

1...2...3...4 plays ----here or there--- We would've had ourselves a football game.
Honestly, there's no reason to worry about that loss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now About that game

Roger Bacon 10 Sycamore 23
1st quarter
-Momentum was 'rich'... Intensity was at an all time high.... The crowd was there... the lights were on.----And we had ourselves a football game
The game starts out with great defensive on both sides......Then an --all out attack--
Late in the 1st.. Jorian Hudson punches it in for 6.
Sycamore later misses a field goal. -- And now, at this point in the game, you see the Momentum shift over to the Spartans bench.
- Late in the 2nd quarter- Nick Linder nails a 39-yarder.
we recover an onside-kick that was executed perfectly.
Now Momentum is rolling.... It's in the Air... It's in the Water Bottles.
Preparing to go into half-time with a 10-0 lead. 1 play takes a punt return away from us and the story writes out itself.
But can you blame the kid. He's filled with excitement. He was itching to block a punt. Instead, he jumps a little early. A sure <4th> punt...turns into a <1st-10> for Sycamore
Momentum Shifted

After the team lost momentum we couldn't compose ourselves to perform to the level we had the last two weeks.

But we can't blame anyone...

1. We aren't out there to begin with. We have no clue how it feels to lose momentum on the football field.
As much as we can hope.- A support system is all we need to push and pull forward to future victories for our football team.

You Blame Momentum.

Sycamore scores with 19 seconds left in the 1st half.... and takes momentum with them to score 16 more unanswered points in the 2nd half.

Notables:
Player of the week- Jake Rose 3 receptions for 102 yards

Josh Ungerbuehler 9 for 21, 138 yards, 1 INT

Valiant Effort- Jorian Hudson 8 carries for 30 yards, 6 receptions for 51 yards
