Kearns 42, Viewmont 7

Awesome win over a good Viewmont team. Their defense was actually very tough. We still have things to correct if we want to continue to play this way during the post season. Come out to practice ready to work hard to beat East in the first round.

Stats are updated on the right hand side.

Kearns 29, Stansbury 6

This was a very big win over a very good team in Stansbury. We still have things to work on because we struggled with moving the ball on offense at times and covering the pass on defense, but the good thing is that we have film on them now and we can see what we need to fix.

We fully expect to see them again in the championship game,  so we'll be ready again.

Us coaches are very proud of you guys and how well you play together as a team. Keep working hard preparing mentally and physically. We love you guys.

All stats are updated on the right hand side. See you at practice on Monday.

Kearns 60, Murray 0

I'm proud of all of you for how hard you worked, how much you supported each other, and how un-selfishly you played. What an awesome game. I'm not a fan of "running up the score", but I really felt like this was not the case when it's evident that 8 different kids scored a touchdown and we were able to get every kid that can carry the football, at least 1 carry. Even our starters only got 1 carry each and they un-selfishly begged to stay in the game only to block, not carry the football.

Stats are updated. We move on to a HUGE game against Stansbury next week. You all have been preparing for this game and you know how big this game is and I have every confidence that you will be up for this game and take this challenge into your own hands and play the best game yet. I'm very excited for you all.

Kearns 33, East 0

Awesome job guys. You played a really good team and never let up. We had a couple of times where their offense was moving the ball, but you clamped down and played great defense. Still some work to do to play our best game, but I couldn't be more proud of you all.

Opponent break down: East

I've broken down East's offense from their first game of the season against Hunter. They beat Hunter 20-6. Hunter is a really good team, so that tells us that East is good. Do not underestimate them one bit. They are tough and physical and they really want to beat us badly.

East Offense - They use a double tight, I-formation offense with a wing back. The wing back (#27) is a dangerous runner. He's fast in open-field and has great break-away speed. They will wear us out with their tailback (#22) runs, then give it to #27 on a counter or reverse, so we have to make sure we're staying home. Their best OL is #74. He's big and physical. The only other formation we've seen from the video is #27 lining up wide and almost every time he did that they either passed or ran a sweep to that side. They have one time when they run a shotgun/trips look, but that play didn't work so well for them.

Since this is their first game, I'm sure they have added more to their offense since then, so we must be prepared for anything else. 



One last bit of warning: They have had players kicked out of games for starting fights. DO NOT GET INVOLVED. Stay way from fights or getting personal with them. Just play your game and hit them legally when the ball is snapped.
