Celina has 201 yards total offense

China Spring has under 100, didn't hear the exact number

Eskew has 6/8 57 yards passing and 8 yards rushing

Davis is 3/6 for 58 yards passing

They said 144 yards rushing and 58 passing for Celina in the first half.

[charlesrixey]

from what i can tell, Celina has driven down the field fairly well but they have turned the ball over once and killed another drive with penalties

after the two drives for China Spring, Eskew has been mostly kept under wraps as Celina has gotten more pressure as each series progresses

however, China Spring's defense has been pretty good, especially when it mattered, as the score would otherwise be 14-7

:(

maybe immobilizing one of his legs

[SNYDER325TIGERS]

hmmmm...I wonder who it was:thinking:

[charlesrixey]

they're still working on him

player is as yet unidentified--the announcers don't want to say the wrong name

he is moving his extremities, and they have brought out the cart

this has been a very hard fought game, and yet there has been great sportmanship on both sides

looks to be a left leg injury

True, Waldrep had a good game, i'm not taking anything away from him but Troy McCartney had a AWESOME game, when he made something out of that busted play on a 4th down, that probally made a difference in the game tonight. If China Spring would of had another minute to play I bet they could have scored and tied it up and went into overtime.


But all that aside and Congrats to the Celina Bobcats on an awesome season!

You guys have a well proven program!
