Junior High Football 2018

[14U]

Washington CH 8th Grade team will be undefeated league champs this season, you heard it here first. It will look like a completely different team this season, the most talented jr high team the blue lions have possibly ever had. The two outside receivers are both 5'11" and run a 40 in 4.90 seconds. They are both very physical. One of the slot receivers is 6'2" 220 and can run, he literally looks like a young Gronkowski out there, great hands and very physical as well. The other slot receiver could be the best of the bunch. he is a transfer, probably 5'8" 140 and runs a solid 4.80. They will have three receivers this year that no team got to see last year because they didn't play. There might not be an 8th grade team in the state that can guard all four of these monsters. They also have a couple new kids defensively that are fast and aggressive. Jackson better look out week 5 when they come to Gardner Park. If they think they will roll to another league championship they will be gravely mistaken. WCH will be ready to play i can guarantee that.

We need to get with the right channels and have them play Wheelersburg. My buddy took me to watch one of their practices. They are big and fast at all skill position with their line Avg over 200. Receivers are 6’1, 6’1 and 6’0. Runningbacks are fast and solid etc!! Their D is big and fast for a jr high team. On paper it sound like a great jr high game

I agree! I think it would be a great matchup. They scrimmaged Madison Plains Jr High last night and it got really bad. Not sure how MP faired in their league last year but they simply couldn't compete with the Blue Lions. WCH scored at will and pummeled the Eagles on D. WCH 7th grade looked dominant as well, the Blue Lions 7th grade QB is a special athlete. I believe he accounted for 6 touchdowns (4 rushing, 2 passing) in two 10 - play series'.

My buddy said last year burg was hunting for a game, to bad they’re not closer because I don’t see schools making that drive to play!

Northwest vs Rock hill scrimmage.
The 7th grade ran 10 and 10. Rock hill had to play some 8th grade back-up so they would have enough.
Northwest 10 plays 4 tds.
Rock hill 10 plays didn't score.

In the 8th grade. Both teams ran 25 plays I believe.
Northwest scored once Rock hill didn't score.
Both teams are physical. Fun to watch.

I watched both 7th and 8th scrimmages. I think Wheelersburg 8th grade is crazy good. Not sure how good Portsmouth is tho. Wheelersburg's 8th QB looked very good. They had a couple very quick RB's, a receiver that was big and could run,I think they threw like a 60 or so long Td to him at the beginning of their scrimmage. And their line looked huge for 8th graders.
Hard to tell who wins a scrimmage ran like that though. It was good work for all involved. Burg 7th had a big QB that seemed to run well, quick and fast RB. They brought in a second QB and I think he threw their long TD to a farely big kid that could run. They also would put that kid in the back field down close to goal line. I don't think he carried it though. Should be a fun season.
