Courtland had very little trouble with a good MV team tonight at courtland high school. on the third play from scrimmage after Courtland's defense stuffed the cats. newly Fredericksburg Christian transfer Blair Lawson on a buck sweep ran 78 yards to the end zone. this kid is really going to be a weapon in what is already a potent offense. This kid along with Vic Green and George Cheetum may be the best backfield in the area. along with the excellent passing of Jabari Allen and Chet wellborn they will be hard to stop.
On the second possession qb wellborn threw a beautiful pass to the speedy Vic Green to make it two scores to nothing Courtland. then after MV scored on a pass play making it 2 td's to 1 Vic green made a dazzling run of 60 yards breaking several tackles making it 3 td's to 1 in the first half.
after both teams using mostly subs that neither team scored in the second half both put their starters back in and Courtland scored on a beautiful pass play from wellborn to Vic green of 35 yards making it 4 td's to 1. that is the way it ended.
the offensive stars for Courtland was Green Lawson and the passing of Wellborn and Allen and the receiving of Grant and Allen. yes that's right Jabari Allen as a receiver. he seem to be much bigger and taller and was a inviting target for wellborn along with the speedy Grant and Hokerson that returns to the line up in a couple weeks after getting injured playing soccer. the cougar offensive line is big and strong this year with the massive ben Beaty and Colby Heart anchoring a veteran returning line that played well. going to be a offensive juggernaut.
on defense the cougars was lead by Kyree Mc Cain a very aggressive DB that made some excellent defensive plays. also Nick Kiaffa and DB Dakoda Woodward played well. the interior line stopped the cats on the ground lead by Ben Beaty a huge tackle. MV is a good football team and the cougars stuffed their running game and other than a few pass plays they were excellent on defense.
hard to tell a whole lot in a controlled scrimmage but one thing for sure is Courtland is a excellent well balanced football team that with their tough schedule playing Ponax Riverbend Louisa Faquier and Liberty before the battlefield schedule they may have a losing record and still be a top team in the state. preps has them ranked 4th behind powerhouse teams Lake Taylor Dinwiddie and Salem. if the cougars do make the playoffs it may be hard for them to have any home field advantage because they may have lost 3 or 4 games for the season. if they advance on it will be a tough road to a state title with teams that I have just named between them and a state title. we shall see but it sure was great to see HS football again. GOOD LUCK COUGARS!
