Ridge roller coaster ride!
Tribe topples Titans, 43-29
The Redskins celebrated Homecoming Saturday
on a crisp, sunny afternoon - perfect
weather for football. And as the 'Skins and
Titans battled on the field, the coaches
began their game of chess with each trying
to out maneuver the other with formations
and superior positioning designed to gain
the upper hand.
With all due respect, will someone please
teach Coach Schmidt how to play chess.
The reason we say that is the object of
chess is to surround and protect your king.
You must guard him with everything you have,
for when he is captured, the game is over.
Coach Schmidt did exactly the opposite.
Rather than hiding his most important piece,
he unleashed his Homecoming King, Kitt
Anderson, as well as Homecoming Court member
Andrew Flogel on the Titans. It proved to be
more than South could handle, as the King
and his Court went on a second half rampage
and scoring spree on the befuddled
defenders. King Anderson and Prince Flogel
combined for five touchdowns. King, errr
Kitt caught a touchdown pass and ran for 2
more while the Prince threw for two and
lugged one across on the ground for good
measure.
We might be remiss, though, if we didn't
point out the first half started out rather
slow. A couple of early turnovers kept the
Tribe off the scoreboard and had them down
by a score at the end of one. Actually, it
was the 'Skins who were befuddled as each
time they scored the Titans would forge
ahead with points of their own. In fact, the
first half closed with the Titans on top
26-14.
The second half, however, caused the first
to be quickly forgotten as Neshaminy came
out looking like a team with something to
prove. And that's just what they did,
scoring four touchdowns to take the lead
for good and put the game away.
On a positive note, the Moleskinners
continue to get strong support from
their underclassmen as junior Jason Ulmer added
another TD (giving him 7 on the year) while
sophomore Paul Carrezola grabbed an aerial
for his first TD of the season.
As the Redskins take their record to 5-2,
they can now look forward to an important
match at North Penn next Friday.
See you there.
