This was the best Chaney has thrown the ball all year. Salem will be very dangerous if he continues to play like he did tonight.
Yeah PC will just be a "test" for the mighty spartans.I'm essentially never going to pick HV to beat Salem (0-17 all-time now) but I thought there was a chance, a slight chance, that HV could make it a game but I came away completely flummoxed. This was a bog standard HV team for Salem and the game was never anything approaching close. HV is clearly a good team, their results in other games bear that out, but none of it makes any sense to me after what I saw tonight. Pulaski has an elite defense, averaging like 9 ppg (counting tonight's win over PH), and HV put up 35 on them. Just bizarre stuff.
As for Salem, D came to play in a big way. HV's WR/TE corps accounted for essentially nothing, they harassed the QB with impunity, just an A+ effort. The offensive ground game was so-so, mostly due to a stubborn effort to run between the tackles instead of around the ends where HV's total lack of speed would have been abused (indeed the few times they did this yielded massive yardage including Persinger's 65 yard scamper). Chaney had an excellent game and was a dropped pass from a perfect outing.
Very much seemed like Salem is rounding into form. Pulaski will be an interesting test to be sure. With the Glass loss, Salem just needs to get a W to guarantee home-field throughout the first 3 games.
According to recent history (18-3).Yes just a test. Maybe PC steps it up this yr and wins but until then, just a test.Yeah PC will just be a "test" for the mighty spartans.
What I noticed about Hidden Valley is that they had very little speed. Salem has got some speed and it became a bad bad match up for Hidden Valley. Southwest Roanoke County has been very down in football. Really don't think a combination of Cave Spring and Hidden Valley would be competitive with the best teams in 4a
