Found out yesterday NW JV team is 21-1 in it’s last 22 games. Last loss came against Mt Tabor in 2008.
That’s great but what does it add up to on the varsity level? It’s kind of like going undefeated in the pre season NFL.
Topfin, this topic is surrounding JV football – I am sure that is why the comment was regarding JV NW team. Also, a JV team performance says a lot about what the varsity team may look like (a lot of JV players from last year are on the varsity team now). Don’t undermine the JV football talent and importance in their records.
Ragsdale received the ball first and punted after 3 plays.. Page driving and they score 7-0. 2 yard qb sneak by jordan putnam.
Ragsdale scores on a short run. 40 yard td pass.. Putnam to neal.. Attempt failed.. Oh and btw I spoke too soon on ragsdales pat. It was blocked 13-6.
Ragsdale punts again.. Returned to deep in ragsdale territory.. Page fumbled on first play.. Ragsdale recovered. Ragsdale 3 and out.. Fake punt picks up first down
26-6 page at half. Page scored off a punt return.. And another deep fade pass set up another putnam pass td. Bugby scored on the punt return. Ragsdale went 3 and out last 4 possessions.
whats the NEG jv score
Page driving again.. Stopped on 4th and goal at the.7.. Ragsdale with fake punt on next poss. Didn’t pick it up.. Page takes short field and scores. 32-6
Page put in the 2nd string defense for the whole 4th quarter.. Page up 38-20
Thanks for the updates Joe!
NW JV’s are always strong……baseball, basketball, football. That’s great, good for them. I’m a NW parent, went through the JV programs. But obviously it doesn’t translate all that much to the varsity level.
NW is full of solid athletes, well coached all throughout their youth. They understand the game and limit mistakes. These solid JV teams beat other programs who didn’t have as much fundamental instruction at ages 9-13 and who don’t really try to compete at the JV level. But when the really strong athletes get the training and focus they been lacking, they excel quickly and surpass the solid players at the higher levels.
NW JVs, that is a vry good comment, but I would also add that they quit working on athletics after they hit 10th and 11th grade because they are all given cars and they are pretty much pampered. I think we will se the same thing with Northern once the initial groups that came under nebulous circumstances age out. Look @ their JV football and basketball and baseball will be similar. Mark my words!!!!
