CARDINAL
FOOTBALL
Jr. High Update 9-27-13
The Collinsville Cardinal Jr. High football teams hosted the Tahlequah Tigers this past Thursday night at Sallee Field in a Metro Lakes Conference contest. After all three contests were complete the Cardinals gave the Eye of the Tiger, a black eye, as the Cardinals swept the series in all three games.
In the 7th grade contest the Cardinals dominated every phase of the game. The kicking game was outstanding providing turnovers which led to points on the board. The defense swarmed the Tiger backs and the offense was overpowering all night long. Cardinals win 22-6, and improve their record to 2-2. We are showing improvement. There was a Tiger player taken by ambulance to a local hospital for observation after the game. He was released Friday morning. We wish him a quick recovery.
The Cardinal 8th grade team proved without a doubt that we can, and will be, a good football team. The offensive line plowed huge holes for the running backs to run through and the Cardinal defense refused to allow the Tigers to cross our goal line. The kicking game was outstanding. Cardinals win BIG 31-0. No injuries were reported. We are getting better!
The money game of the night (9th) proved to be a slugfest. Both teams played great defense. Both teams had sound kicking games. Both teams proved they could move the ball. But the Cardinals were just too dominating up front in the running game. Cardinals win a close one 7-0. No injuries were reported. The Cardinals improve their record to 4-0.
Blake Burd continues to be sidelined with a concussion. We miss Blake and wish him a healthy recovery.
Our next action will next Thursday at Coweta beginning at 5pm. This is an important conference battle for all of our teams. In the past the Tigers have been a tough opponent. We need everyone to get loud and cheer our teams on. Hope to see you there. Its great to be a Cardinal!
