3rd Grade White vs. Panama
PittBulls 3rd Grade White first scrimmage.
On a day that was overcast and sprinkling rain the 3rd grade white came out of the gates a little sluggish. On the first snap of the game quarterback Jake Smith lost the handle of the ball from Levi Hicks, Panama recovered.
The second play from scrimmage Panama’s running back took the ball 38 yards for the score. After a few encouraging words from the coaches the offense came back out onto the field filled with enthusiasm ready to go score. The ball they were playing with was very wet, causing the ball to come free for the second turnover of the game.
After the turnover, White found themselves down 8 -0, and the defense was heading back onto the field, this is where the guys stepped up and started hitting people.
The player that caught our eye: Ethan Escalante was flying around the field making tackles. Causing the other coach to have the game stopped to check Ethan’s shoe’s for jet packs.
The defense played very well the rest of the game only giving up a few yards. The team really showed improvement. Brayden Cullen and Weston Cumbie stepped up and did a good job helping out with tackles.
The Offense showed signs of improvement the second half, and being there first game, in real game time situations they did very well. This team has a lot of talent on the field and it should show when they get a little more practice and game experience.
