Terrific defense, Great job Devils. Congrats to Coach Houseright.

Great Job Guys!!:D

Gate City ran the ball right down Gretna's throats all night, and I loved every second of it. Got some good footage of both the East Mont--Riverheads game as well as the Gate City--Gretna game that I will upload in the near future. Riverheads surprised me with just how talented and tough their running backs were. They didn't have a whole lot of size, but good God those guys were tough runners! They were pretty quick, too. They were definitely a far superior team to East Mont and I'm not sure even Clintwood could have defeated them. I have to say that East Mont's QB was probably the single most impressive player I saw throughout the day, though. One problem I noticed consistently is that his line did not block very well for him. Although both teams put up a great amount of points, the Riverheads defense was often in his face as soon as he received the snap, whereas when Riverheads had the ball, they moved it at will and blocked excellently for their 'backs. I'm actually surprised he put up the stats he did, but he's an absolute stud and one of the best QB's I've seen in a long time at this level. I was far more impressed with him than I was Nick Miller from Gretna.

All in all, just an excellent day for football. Both games were very exciting and even close at spots. I'm just glad Gate City came away with a win. I was fearing we'd see a repeat of 2007 with a far superior Gretna team taking them to the woodshed, but I was presently surprised by the determination and tenacity shown by the Devils. Great job, GC!
