Saturday Practice

Sectionals was canceled for us Male-types, because Maine is wet still, or something like that. I don't really get it. Anywho, we'll play in Sectionals next weekend, location tbd, but we didn't let this gorgeous day go to waste. We got out on the fields around 12:15, fought hard to three and then broke the team into handlers and cutters. Seigs, who came up to help us out for the day, worked with the 6 handlers on dump positioning in a variety of situations and looking for a second break look when the mark has overcommitted. The cutters worked on timing in cuts on top of one another and then timing in cuts to deep looks - from what I could see there were some purrdy, purrdy connections out there.

After the drills we went back into a scrimmage between O and D, which was originally supposed to go to 5 but kicked our asses during the first few points because of the stipulations that each turnover be moved to the sideline before the other team could play and that every score needed to be thrown twice. Big stuff in this game from Kell, who got deep for some puts (and also had a gorgeous put of his own in the first game) and used his body well to keep the defenders off of him. Watson and Misha had nice deep looks to Misha and Carson respectively that were juuuuuust out the back, and Cobbles put up hucks on the break side with seeming impunity. I'm not totally convinced I used that last word correctly.

We're headed back out to Radcliff tomorrow, some time in the afternoon so everyone can recover from their Manischevitz rage tonight. Go Tribe!
