NFHS is AWFUL! (Crusaders Hanging Tight)

[crusader_of_90]

It can’t keep a stream for 1-8 Althoff - how many folks are really trying to watch that crap?

But they are tied 0-0 with 8-0 Cardinal Ritter at the end of 1Q. Defense playing out of their minds - the Althoff offense has run maybe 13 plays and punted three times.

I didn’t think it was physically possible, but NFHS both sucks and blows at the same time.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Ritter scores first play of 2Q - missed kick. Then Althoff with 65 yards to the five. ALTHOFF SCORES!!!!

Ritter beat Cahokia earlier this year but not a tough schedule - proud the boys are hanging.

6-0 1045 2q.

I didn’t think it was physically possible, but NFHS both sucks and blows at the same time.

Maybe it will implode.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Ritter goes 80 on first play of the drive ... they maybe woke up. 13-6.

ESTL up 19-14 over Alton middle of 2Q.

Marion and Mattoon tied at 14

 

[crusader_of_90]

Crusaders recover their own punt after a Ritter error ... ball at the 5. Third and inches - Althoff stuffed - fourth and goal - kick. 12-9 Ritter - 6:40 in 2Q.

 

[4hhsbulldogs]

ESTL 25-14

ESTL up 19-14 over Alton middle of 2Q.

Highland up 34-0 at end of 1Q.

Marion and Mattoon tied at 14

ESL D that bad or is Alton coming into their own?

 

[4hhsbulldogs]

I have heard ESTL secondary is questionable. I have never seen them play though. Not there just following on Twitter FYI.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Ritter takes the kickoff from the 1 to the other 8 years line.

There is some speed on both sides. Ritter has some huge dudes. They are seniors against sophomores and Juniors.

Ritter scores. 18-9.

Their DLINE is stout - LBs and DBs ... lacking.

 

[4hhsbulldogs]

Highland with running clock with 9 minutes left in 2Q 41-0

 

[crusader_of_90]

“We seem to do things that consistently put us in a bind.”

That’s Glenn Schott after a groan and deep sigh after an Althoff sideline personal foul.

 

[4hhsbulldogs]

I like to see althoff playing them tough. Finish off the tough season and lay down a foundation for next year.

 

[crusader_of_90]

West over East 28-3.

Mater Dei up over Waterloo 28-7.

[crusader_of_90]

Cahokia up 20-0 over O’fallon. Highland 40-0.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Ritter and their Missouri bound Qb whipping us now - 33-9 almost at half.

 

[4hhsbulldogs]

Yikes.

 

[crusader_of_90]

“Oh - you see our little running back - he got bounced back off the line. He’s about 5 foot five. Best thing to do now is just run the clock out and get to half time.”

Then we pass.

Then Ritter calls a timeout.

 

[crusader_of_90]

Big pass to the 35 - so Althoff calls a timeout. May as well. 40 seconds left.

Almost pick 6.

Another Ritter timeout - 4th and 10 at the 35 ... Althoff punts and recovers ball - 18 seconds left.

Ball at the Ritter 38.

Half.

33-9

Edwardsville 52-0.

 

[crusader_of_90]

ESL scores 71. Eville 65.
