In the first half, CovCath managed long drives on mostly short passes and JC responded with quick Jude TDs. JC recovered an on sides kick in the second half. CovCath contained Jude a little better in the second half, but not well enough to stop him from racking up first downs. CovCath seemed to tire some in the 4th quarter and JC began getting pressure on Bir and forced him into some mistakes. For much of the game, it looked like Johnson Central was going to be helpless against CovCath's passing attack and Jude was going to run at will against the CovCath defense.

I only remember one Johnson Central pass in the game, a completion to Jude, but I might have missed one or two. Then again, I could be mistaken about them throwing a pass. :biggrin:

Johnson Central is one well conditioned team. Playing a tough schedule and playing Jude, Hall, Bratton, et al. a lot of minutes both ways is paying dividends. I think Coach Matney has these players believing that they can wear down their opponents even if the opposing players play only one way.

They ended the first half with an incomplete halfback option pass. That's the only other one I can remember, but WSIP had them 1 for 3.
