Wolves play hard, Bobcats are nextSpecial to the Picayune - By Terry SimmonsPublished Wednesday, September 17, 2008 in the Nevada County Picayune On Friday, Sept. 12, the number 1 3A and 4A schools met in Nashville. The night was one that many of us will not soon forget. During the first four minutes of play the Scrappers had hung 14 unanswered points on the board. Then all of a sudden when many people were already down, the Scrappers got scrapped by Demarcus Collier running for a 7- yard touchdown with 5:50 left on the clock during the first quarter. The defense made an impressive stand and got the Wolves the ball back. The offence took the ball right back down the field in an impressive battle and Termaine Henderson dropped back and hit his brother Jermaine Henderson for a 15 yard touchdown, but Prescott was not done with the second quarter and with 5:23 left on the clock T. Henderson connected with Kalin Hall for a 14 yeard touchdown. There was something electrifying about the side lines all the way to half time the under dogs Prescott Wolves were scrapping with the Nashville Scrappers. However, the second half did not go our way with only one score in the second half Prescott was defeated by Nashville 27-49. The offensive numbers for the game were 11 first downs 258 rushing yards with only 68 passing yard. If there is one thing that we have learned is that, our Wolves are getting better, no matter who the competition is, they will compete. Dont count them out until the final whistle blows. The defense came to play and they played well, just a few plays went their way. The offensive attack will be there. This week the (1-1) Curley Wolves will take on the (0-2) Bobcats of Hope. The game will be at Cummins Stadium at 7 p.m. Search | Nevada County Picayune by date | Gurdon Times by date |
