Lafayette 14 Poquoson 6

I honestly expected yall to win by a larger margin. What’s your thoughts on game?

Sidenote: how did Bruton get off without playing Lafayette?
Game was exactly what I expected. Poquoson just keeps grinding and this years team looks better than lasts. Coach Duty and his staff...impressive every week, year after year. That first year they went 0-10....they've been a force ever since.
Coach Linn and his staff and their successes stand alone. Another top notch program. We really have some great coaching in the 757 to go along with some great kids and athletes. We're blessed in a lot ways.
 
On Lafayette’s first play a bubble screen went for a TD. Oops, holding call, that ends that. Found out starting center had dislocated knee cap and did not play. Made pass protection very difficult and run blocking. All night the running plays averaged about 3 yards, not a single long run. Poquoson totally stuffed the outside stuff. Great defense. Lafayette 2 tds came on drives after a turnover, as did Poquoson’s. Both offendes never got it going. Last bad thing was in 4th Q starting Rb Simpson dislocated his shoulder again. Status unknown right now.

One play sums it up for Lafayette: 4th snd 3 on Poquoson 35 yard line. 2 minutes to go to half, no TO left. 100% of time Lafayette goes for it. They punted!!! Incredible lack of confidence.

Last couple years Bruton only played class 3 BRD teams but excluded Lafayette. Next year Bruton will be playing all BRD teams snd move up to class 3.

The VHSL realignment for next year is still showing Bruton in class 2 Region A. That will give class 2 Region A, 17 teams next season. No other Region will have more than 12 teams, and Region B will only have 9.

I agree this years Poquoson team is better than last year, especially the defense, very disciplined, just never out of position.

This year's Poquoson team is better than what has been in about 5 or 6 years. A serious threat to win the Class 2 state title
