10 am start at West Branch on 8-11.
Not much chatter at all on the Cats’ Twitter site.

Anyone hear anything, keep us posted.

I am pretty sure JFK is coming on the 19th but not sure on the time yet.

Last year was between 5 and 6 I believe

Spread All Day · #**244** 07-12-18, 12:21 PM

Just 6 weeks before the season begins! Any hearing any chatter regarding the cats this year?

Buckeye Elite · #**245** 07-12-18, 11:18 PM

What do people think about the week 1 roster? I’ll take a crack at skill
Positions

Qb- hall
Fb - tomko? Not really sure
Rb- brown will probably start, chism, and Donnadio
Wr - kopnicky, Caldwell, durkin
The wildcard will be where Hawkins lines up, I would
Imagine receiver all over the place, but also I would imagine some wildcat again.
Kick returns - no clue, I would like to see brown and Hawkins back there

Are we still devoid of a kicker for extra points and FG's?

Most likely yes

Sad, but true.

Should look for a girl soccer player if need be.
It's always haunted us.

Spread All Day · #**249** 07-13-18, 04:42 PM

I’m pretty sure it always will with no boys soccer program.

Buckeye Elite · #**250** 07-13-18, 11:21 PM

I was happy with going for 2 last season

You have a good point, going for 2 after every td, made it routine.
Seemed like we made them more often than not.

I just wish we had even a semi-accurate field goal kicker.
Would’ve made a difference the year we went 9-1 versus a perfect year.

The season’s getting close.
Ten of the quickest weeks of our lives.
Not long before the WB scrimmage.

Go Cats!

Not having a consistent xp and short fg kicker can make a difference between winning and losing. For example we didn’t have one in McDonald last year and it most definitely cost us the Columbiana game. We were only at 31 points in regulation on 5 touchdowns instead of 35 points, and also didn’t convert on a 4th and goal from the 10 which could’ve been another 3 points with a kicker. A full 7 points lost, allowing Columbiana to tie it at 31.

Point being, having a reliable xp and short fg kicker is a big deal

Yes a very big deal. Also if your coach knows your kicker is garbage he should be drawing up some good 2 pt conversions. Sounds like a real screw up from Mcdonald

Buckeye Elite · #**254** 07-14-18, 09:59 PM

Not having enough kids who wanna play soccer meaning we don’t have a team hurts, def helps schools like Poland and Canfield etc

It was early in the year and they attempted the fg the first few td’s before going for 2. Later in the year in competitive games they just went for 2 every time.

If you don’t have a kicker, I think it’s best to just put a lot more time into going for 2, it can hurt big time, also being successful on going for 2 puts pressure on the other team as well

Spread All Day · #**257** 07-19-18, 06:37 AM

Does anyone know how Liberty will
Be? We could really use a nice confidence booster week 1 last the last few years.

Struthersfan · #**258** 07-19-18, 01:40 PM

Just a guess. Losing Rushton will make things difficult for the Lep’s.
My feeling is we roll in the opener.

Go Cats!

Buckeye Elite · #**259** 07-19-18, 05:26 PM

Was there a passing scrimmage today?

How did the cats look

Buckeye Elite · #**262** 07-19-18, 07:25 PM

It was as at Struthers btw

Spread All Day · #**263** 07-19-18, 07:47 PM

Cats looked pretty okay. Can’t tell much with a passing scrimmage. Might throw the ball
More this year than ever before with Kuntz. Hall is a good passer and has a few good wr’s

Spread All Day · #**264** 07-29-18, 08:02 AM

I was looking at opponents the schedules the other day. I noticed that memorial is playing a team named bexley week 2. That is a game memorial can win. They might win up tofive games this season, which can help us tremendously.

I just Eitel'd them. Interesting. 2017 they're 0-10 with 8 running clock games.

2016 10-0 with all games at least 2 scores. ( largely playing the same schedule) Has any team went from sugar to s@$t in 1 year?

Buckeye Elite · #**266** 07-29-18, 08:14 PM

Wow that’s a crazy stat^^ I’m
No convinced Campbell has a football team in 3 years

That could be the first time I’ve ever seen that. I wonder what happened.

How has the turnout been this season?

Anyone not come out that was expected to have an impact? Any new additions to the team?

BTrev · #**269** 07-30-18, 09:31 PM

Best preview the local media has put out in a while...
Still leaves me wanting more, though.
