leslie gets compared to last year's team to much. yes they won the first district in 6 years. yes they lost 12 seniors they were big boys, 8 over 6 foot tall. the big difference tonight was that wburg blitzed them all night and the inexperienced line for lc didnt know what to do. however, the game was closer than it sounded. i wasnt very impressed with wburg, its just the 3-0 record is intimidating. congrats to both teams. harlan and leslie will be a showdown.

I agree with you that leslie gets compared to last season to much and they have some really nice players with an inexperienced offensive line. I also think that Leslie coaches dialed up some nice calls on offense and the defensive scheme was great forcing Williamsburg to use the middle of the field either it be by run or pass. Leslie coaches scouted well and knew probably 85% of the jacket plays before they ran them. Even with all of that being said it took Williamsburg till the second half to realize Leslie was playing speed in the d line to try and pressure and counter the sprint out passing plays. When they started running the ball the dline was overmatched by size and strength.

Bottom line is that even being out schemed Williamsburg had over 430 yards of total offense to Leslie's 150. Leslie had a hard time running the football and protecting their qb. But they countered the speed and blitzing of Williamsburg with a ton of screens and misdirection plays. I think Leslie is a solid team that can win their district and I hope they do. They just gotta get that line play patched up a little. I know they just had some kids return this game and I am glad to see them back.

But to say you were not impressed sounds a little like sour grapes. Williamsburg did play without 6'4 receiver Andrew Griffith who is injured and rememeber that Williamsburg only has 4 seniors. Also the score was 42-6 and Leslie scored on last drive after Williamsburg had subbed down in the secondary. That Harlan team you stated would be a showdown with Leslie was also beat 36-0 by Williamsburg. Just stating some facts about the team you were not impressed by.

Good luck to both teams the rest of the season.
