Scrimmages?

[Crimson's Ghost]

Yeah CoffinCorner must've assumed the orange and black team was Somerset, but it was Blairsville.

It's my understanding that you no longer need a doctor note to wear a clear visor and no one can wear tinted visors. But I don't think refs need to check anymore

McCort/Westmont...
-- Got a little chippy in this one towards the beginning. McCort knocked Westmont out of the playoffs and the schools are rivals. And they don't play this year - so I wasn't that surprised it was physical. Refs tried to take control early. They had to tell one of the WH linemen to take a break for a few plays for getting a little carried away.  No incidents after that. 
-- Thought it was interesting Westmont and the refs wanted to see the paperwork on a McCort kid wearing a visor. He has an eye condition and has been wearing it for a long time including both times the two teams played last year, but they made McCort pull out the doctor's notice anyway before letting him continue. 
-- Also heard Westmont has been complaining to the LHAC that the Point Stadium isn't a suitable venue for football anymore.  Said the field is too hard to play on - whatever that means. 
Anyway to the scrimmage itself...
--  Westmont is big once again. They have a lot coming back off a 7 win team. A scrimmage is tough to really judge Westmont, since their game is predicated off of running the clock and having 15+ play drives. So in a scrimmage without sticks or a clock and them just running for three yards at a time doesn't really do them a ton of justice.  
-- Camden Moors for Westmont is really, really good.  He's going to break more big runs this season. He's been a 1,000 yard back the past two seasons, he'll be good for them again. Possibly the best RB in the LHAC.  He broke off a big touchdown run today. 
-- Westmont is pretty tough defensively.  #32 is an undersized LB but gets to the ball a lot. They have a lot of kids that swarm to the ball. The big linemen don't make a ton of plays, but they take on blocks and the LBs and safeties can hit.  
-- Looks like McCort is going to try to throw the ball more. Will Miller is a big, strong kid.  He's going to be important for McCort this year.  Looks like Bair, Andrews, and Marcozzi will be trying to offset the loss of Walters/Andrews.  Bair had a big run at one point today. Still a question mark I think. 
-- McCort isn't small. They have 3-4 linemen back that started last year, and they settled in eventually. They just have a lot of kids in that 5-10 to 6-1 range with 200+ pounds on them.  No massive 270 pound kids or anything, but that front seven has some nice sized kids.  
-- I think in the normal session each team scored one touchdown.
-- They did a session at the 10 yard line and McCort won that. They scored more TD's and stuffed WH the majority of the time. 
-- During the JV sessions, I think BM scored 3 touchdowns in 10 plays, and WH fumbled 3 times in 10 plays. Whoever the McCort JV QB is did a nice job. He throws it well. 
-- Both teams are playoff teams in their respective classes. Kind of forgot McCort is down to Class A and Westmont is up to AAA. 

I was at Westmont game as well.  Teams seemed fairly evenly matched. Westy looked like better team early, BM looked better late. Westmonts d dominated at the outset- which was a bit surprising to me since BMs qb should be good this year.
Moors is real deal. But that offense requires another guy to step up, and that wasn’t there yet today. Sure it will come, hopefully by Friday!
The jv sessions weren’t close, not sure if BM was playing an upper classman or what, but whoever 26 was, made what felt like 16 out of 20 plays in backfield and caused all the fumbles you noted. Tough to tell how the other young guys matched up. 
Overall both coaches are probably happy since they had positives & can harp on a few negatives to get their attention. Plus, it appeared both got through without injury.

Who made the point Stadium comment?  Scrimmage was at WH and the teams don’t play regular season....so relevant why?    Interesting take.   I agree  it was intense.  Lots of trash talking coming from the golden helmets.

[Coachcal]

Westmont subbed much more liberally. Varsity vs varsity BM had 24 yards on first 10 plays. BM scored on Westy 2nd team. JV wise BM looked better for sure

[Coachcal]

And no. I can pretty much say no official complaint has been made to the LHAC about the point conditions

[dadw/2sons]

TM 6 TD's to Portage 1. TM committed 2 to's on the "drive" they scored on so that needs to be considered. During 2 timed quarters
TM  2  Portage 1.

BM scored on westmont varsity on the second series. Not the second team. Trash talk for sure but it was on both sides. Bair didn’t play the first series because in typical bush league fashion westmont questioned his visor. He did play the second series and ripped off a 50 yard run. Again not against the second team.  Moors looks like he is in mid season form which is no surprise. He ripped off a nice 60 yard td run. Great player!
If your going to tell a story tell the truth.

[Coachcal]

Really, because I saw the subs privateer. Guess you can have your own version.

[Coachcal]

All 48 of Westmont’s players played. Can you say that on your side privateer?
