August 20th - First Scrimmage

Friday night was the first chance for the Cougars to let out some of their aggression on somebody other than their own team. Going up against a Duncan team which was generally bigger and faster, the Cougars showed they would not back down. As would be expected in the first scrimmage, the offense never quite found its rhythm, but there were several plays which were on the verge of breaking for big gains. With more time on the practice field, these guys should be a solid ball control offense. On the defensive side, the Cougars ran well to the ball. Duncan had some big backs that were hard to bring down, so more time on the practice field working on wrapping up is probably on the agenda for the Cougar D. But they showed they could control the line of scrimmage while holding Duncan on several plays with negative yardage or no gain. I’m looking forward to next Thursday to see the progress they make.
