Angleton’s having to pass the ball to move the chains. Couple of big passing plays, but not much else. Both D’s playing well so far. But, Simon—Freshman—is a man child. Looks like they were keying on Barnes (for good reason). If they start keying on Simon, LP will go with Barnes, Sandolph, or Bright. Looks like a PO game early. Good for both teams.

38 yard FG no good. !!score:21/7/H

Angleton stops LP.

LP stops Angleton. Forces punt. Bad snap. LP takes over at Angleton 42.

!!score:7/0/1/10/49 78 yard run by Simon. Punched in from the 2. You've alerted the ScoreboardBot: Score Alert: La Porte(7) @ Angleton(0) Q1 10:49

I wouldn’t undersell La Porte just yet. They had 7 starters out after The Border Battle with Deer Park in Game 1, and didn’t get them all back (except for one OL) until last week against Crosby. Similar to Lancaster last year, they’re getting players back at the right time. Record is slightly deceiving. We’ll see how they fare against undefeated Angleton this week. After that, should have a better feel for their prospects.

La Porte will also line up in the Pistol Wing, Pistol, and Shotgun formations. Multiple formations similar to Angleton. But, primary is the Wing T.

La Porte will bring the ‘Four Horsemen’ (Barnes, Sandolph, Bright, and Simon) against a defense that’s very familiar with how to defend their offense. It should be a good test to see how LP can fare against others who attempt to stuff the running game. Crosby was supposed to have a solid defense, tried their best to stop LP’s running game, and it was over early to the tune of 52-6. The Dawgs have scored at least 20 points, and rushed for over 220 yards in every game this year—even with all the injuries—and against 6A PO teams and PNG. LP’s defense has been susceptible to the big play in the passing game & Angleton may be able to take advantage of that weakness. It could be the key to the game if LP can’t get pressure. Sure tackling will also be critical. Angleton’s QB can’t be allowed to escape containment when LP does collapse the pocket. TO’s & penalties will be magnified. Special Teams play will be magnified. LP doesn’t need to get cute. Just play to their strength. Pound the Angleton D early and often, and rely on their depth to wear down the Wildcat D. Calpreps has it as a toss-up. I hope both teams come out of it injury free where they’re not affected for the PO’s as they should finish 1 and 2 unless Crosby pulls an upset of Angleton in a possible trap game and Pasadena has a major miracle against La Porte.

Not that I know of…

Good write up. Remember also, Berneathy was at La Porte prior to Angleton when LP was making their runs to the Regional Finals in 6A. Should be a good game. It will be the first game Angleton has actually played against a team with a winning record all year. La Porte is also basically back to full strength—I believe—which they haven’t been since the Border Battle vs. Deer Park in the first preseason game.

I think its supposed to be broadcast on Texan Live/NFHS.
