Q1: HC receives. Completes short pass. Run goes for 2. 3rd and short...run goes for 4, 1st down HC. 8 yard completion on 1st. Run goes for 2, 1st down HC. Run goes for 7, ball is across midfield, 2nd down. False start HC. 2nd and 9. Pass overthrown, 3rd and 9. Short pass complete for no gain, 4th down HC. My stream goes out. Great.

Stream comes back up. I got update that HC defense got a stop and then HC got ball and marched but faces 4th at GW 45 and punts, touchback, GW takes over at its own 20 with 2:32 left in Q1. GW gets a couple first downs, then faces 3rd and 4 and goes for a Cox to #24 reverse that is successful and GW down to HC 27. End Q1.

Q2:HC jumps off sides and brings GW down to HC 22. 1st down. Cox sweeps outside, beats the backer to the hole, beats the safety to the sideline and turns it up and into the endzone. But there is a downfield holding call on GW. GW stays at HC 19. So basically a first down run. 1st and 3. Run up middle, hard hit, but after about 3 yard gain. Ball at HC 16, first down GW. Cox gets sweep and is just too fast to the point of contact, past the backers and down to HC 4. 1st and goal. Run to Cox for 1 or 2, 2nd down. Cox again but is stopped. Flag on play. Flag is waved off. 3rd and goal from 1 or 2. Cox again gets hit and line but is able to give a little second effort and gets in. TD GW. HC will have to make adjustments on defense if they want to have a shot. Cox is fast. 10:27 left in Q2.

HC takes over after great KO return down to HC 45ish. 1st down run for 4. Run goes for 8 or 9. 1st down. Pass goes for 5 or 6. 2nd down and HC o-line gets movement, 3rd and inches. Enough space made on 3rd for another 4 or 5. 1st down HC. HC tries bubble pass and stud GW #7 flies down for TFL. 2nd and 12 at GW 33. Bobak gets 5 or 6 to set up 3rd and 7 from GW 28, but GW player injured. Looks to be pretty shaken up but walks off with trainers. On 3rd HC goes to Bobak again for a big chunk down to GW 17. 1st down HC. Another run goes for 2. 2nd down HC, 6mins left Q2. Another run to Bobak, fights in a scrum and falls forward for 3. 3rd and 5, HC takes timeout. 5:25 Q2. HC gives a run to LB #19 for a run but gets about 1 or 2, 4th down. HC lines up to kick the field goal and it is missed. HC gets nothing after a nice drive. Ouch. GW takes over at its own 20. 4:45 left Q2.

GW runs a nice veer option read for 10. Ball at GW 30, 1st down. Quick bubble pass goes out to Cox for 1 yard. 2nd down GW. GW goes for another veer read, this time for 1 or 2. 3rd and 8 GW. GW goes to air and TE is wide open over the middle and GW picks up a big chunk, down to HC 48. Off sides HC brings GW to HC 43. 1st and 5 GW. GW goes to Cox and there is mvoement and Cox picks up 5 or 6. 1st down goes to Cox again for 4. GW goes for run up the middle and it goes for about 10. 1st down GW at HC 22. HC D not looking like it has an answer for GW run game. 1st down GW and they go again to sweep with Cox for 8 with no HC answer. HC jumps offsides again and brings GW down to HC 9. 1st and goal. Run up the middle goes for 4, 2nd and goal from 5. Another sweep to Cox goes for maybe 1, 3rd down GW from 3 yardline. Sweep to Cox gets stopped and its 4th and goal from 2. GW staying on field. HC calls timeout. GW offense comes back out, lines up and now GW calls the timeout. GW offense comes backs out, lines up and run gets stuffed, runner stood up...no whistle and all the GW players get the push and it's ruled a TD. PAT good. GW 14 HC 0.

I watched the first half only, so my comments are only focused on that. I thought HCs offensive line played really well, but on a short field, the GW defense is very good. I also thought the GW offense could have their way with the HC defense, all night long. Had it not been for the rain delay, GW would have put up way more than 21. I expected HC to score, but only in the 4th. All in all, a good game for the Hitters, who still have some work to do, but seem ready for the playoffs. Also, did not see many flags against GW last night, so when they are focused, they can play well.
