Kelly Bulldogs
This is the hidden content, please

Coach Mike Long and his Kelly Bulldogs will be looking to make a huge impact this season in the private school ranks. Simply put, the Bulldogs are loaded for 2007 and should make a deep run in the TAPPS playoffs. Last year Kelly finished 6-5 and lost to Dallas Bishop Lynch in the first round of the playoffs 42-14.

Key Wins Last Year:

Houston Furr (23-6)

St. Thomas (24-15)

Last Year’s Scores:

Houston Kincaid 21 Kelly 20

Kelly 28 Hitchcock 0

Kelly 23 Houston Furr 6

Bridge City 16 Kelly 7

Kelly 30 San Augustine 18

Crawford 34 Kelly 14

St. Pius 35 Kelly 13

Kelly 27 St. Michael’s 13

Kelly 24 St. Thomas 15

St. Pius 33 Kelly 9

Dallas Bishop Lynch 42 Kelly 14

Offensive Summary

No doubt the offense will be the strong point of the 2007 Kelly Bulldogs. Kelly returns 10 offensive starters off of last year’s team. Last year Kelly averaged 19 points per game and should improve on that number in ’07. The Bulldog offense will be led by all-star QB Anthony Fazio. Fazio put up great numbers as a junior last year as he passed for 1,125 yards and 10 touchdowns. We expect him to have another huge year this season. Also back on offense is RB Donnie Carona. Carona rushed for 425 yards and 5 touchdowns in 2006. Also look for WR Torreyjon Henry to have a big season after he had 420 receiving and 8 touchdowns last year.

Other Offensive Impact Players:

Doug Prewitt (WR)

Taylor Carmona (OL)

Defensive Summary

Kelly welcomes 5 starters back from a defense that allowed 21 points per game in 2006. The leader of the defense will be DT Kheeston Randall. Randall finished the 2006 season with 33 tackles. We look for DE Dorian Guillory to have a big year on defense as well. Kelly should have a solid defense this season that will be very tough to score on.

Kelly opens the 2007 season at home on August 31 against Houston Kincaid. They follow that up with a September 7 home game with Hitchcock. Then the Bulldogs hit the road for 3 straight games at Houston Furr, at Bridge City and at San Augustine. Kelly has dropped Crawford from the 2007 schedule and added 5A Louisiana power Sulphur. That game will take place on October 12 at Bulldog Stadium. Here is the complete 2007 schedule for the Kelly Bulldogs……

Aug. 31 Houston Kincaid

Sept. 7 Hitchcock

Sept. 15 @ Houston Furr (Saturday)

Sept. 21 @ Bridge City

Sept. 28 @ San Augustine

Oct. 5 OPEN

Oct. 12 Sulphur (LA)

Oct. 19 OPEN

Oct. 26 St. Michael*

Nov. 2 St. Thomas*

Kelly will be pretty good this year, but Im a bit confused why they scheduled Sulphur this year. Sulphur played in the 5A LA State Championship  last year. I dont really think Kelly is near that level right now.

Rumors about Fazio possibly not playing football. Just rumors though but have some weight not sure that he has made up his mind yet. Would be a big effect on Kelly's offense.

I could be wrong, but the scheduling of Sulfur is most likely so the Kelly team can see some really good teams (which is also why some other games are scheduled) before play-offs and hopefully the State Championship
