NotIThatLives Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Is Charlestown football back? Do they/didn't they have a highly ranked line man? They haven't been really good since what, 1999? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was kind of like learning to pass upside down. Had to learn how to get the ball to spiral. Did alot of practice just aiming for a square on the outside wall of the locker room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't been really good since what, 1999? The 5 star lineman they had last year graduated. On the surface, it would appear that Charlestown already beat two of the top teams in conference. But, while I can't speak for Brownstown, Silver Creek is not going to be good this year. The signs have been there as these classes moved up through middle school and JV.

mrflynn03 Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) Hatchets play at Logansport today. Latest I heard is the head Varsity coach has taken over the feeder programs and is putting in his system from the ground level. Numbers seems to be good. Supposed to have a pretty good class coming up. Can't remember if they are 8th or 9th grade this year. Hoping for improvement in the next few years. Washington has never really had a good foundation at the lower levels. Edited August 27, 2022 by mrflynn03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must know each other or something somehow. Washington's coach played at UIndy and lived in Noblesville before moving back to coach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the time I've paid enough attention to notice, so since about 1999, Washington has had probably 1 legit punter and 1 really good kickoff/fg specialist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He graduated, so this season she's doing both. She does a dang good job on extra points, but she's not been given too many field goal chances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old ball coach, before our 1st practice of the year, would always ask the whole team if anyone was willing to "try" kicking this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ughh I doubt very many practice as a complete unit. When I played our kickers practiced on their own just dropping the ball to themselves for punts or using a mechanical holder for ep/fg. I had to practice snapping on my own time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
