On Friday, August 28, the 3A-1 Cedarville Sr High Pirates will be hitting the road and traveling to Berryville to take on the 4A-1 Sr Bobcats. After finishing with a total season record of 6-4 last year, this season the Pirates will be returning 7/7 starters. So far for the 2020 schedule, Cedarville has only scrimmaged Quitman, “The scrimmage went really well,” stated head coach Max Washausen. “We can always improve our blocking assignments and coverage assignments though.”
Last season, the Bobcats finished 7th out of eight conference teams with a record of 1-6. This year, one of the main things Berryville has going for them is a skilled QB. “Berryville is a big physical team that likes to run the football. Tuesday’s practice was a tough physical practice to try and simulate how the game is going to be.” Going into this contest, Cedarville will bring with them their speed, aggressiveness, and their competitiveness. “We have a team of winners! Our offensive and defensive lines will play a huge role.”
The Pirates will have up to six guys who will carry the ball for them. Sophomore, Hayden Morton. Juniors, Darryl Kattich, Hayden Partain, Bruce Turney, and QB Cody Dickens. And senior Tommy Metcalf. “I really like how this team expects to win each week! With Berryville having a school enrollment of twice our size, it’s going to be a good test for us and our guys are definitely ready for the challenge!”
