HAPPINESS IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT

Welcome Pates fans,

FREEDOM-48

East Stroudsburg South-18

Recap on My Predictions

Well I undershot the score quite a bit for the freedom score, but I almost had the ESS score. Freedom came out of this game wondering what all this "Purple Pit" talk even was?

The Game

Talk about domination on all sides of the football. I couldn't be any happier with the way freedom played. It made the fans and student section quite excited for this upcoming promising season. 

Okezie Alozie (88 yds. 1 td)

Freedom started the game slow with only scoring one td in the first quarter(Okezie Alozie). But then obviously picked it up from there. With Eddie "E Boogey" Elliott's unbelievable first game as a Patriot, the squad literally ran all over the top dog in the MVC. 

 Aside from the running game, the passing game was there for Lukas Giovarelli who had a few good throws, but just a little over thrown(Bucsi had some nice completions from Gio). Luke was also intercepted once, but by a kid on his way to play Big East football, so that's very forgivable.

One word comes to mind with the Offensive Line.... Unbreakable. Luke wasn't touched all game, with the o-line surrendering zero sacks. I would call that a good day and hello cheesesteaks!(if no sacks are recorded the o-line gets cheesesteaks) And the defense as a unit did a solid job.
 Optimism
I think overall Freedom Football definitely made a strong statement with this season opener and are on their way to proving many people wrong. Can't wait till next Saturday when we take on predicted top contender for the LVC... Allentown Central Catholic. 
  Motivation

"Chris Berman always talks about the Jacksonville Jags as being a "Yeah, but." team. They're good, but just not good enough when it matters most. The Patriots are kind of like that in both football and boys basketball in the LVC. Maybe that will change this year."(as quoted by Morning Call's "so called expert" Keith Groller) If that's not motivation for this year, I don't know what is. All I got to say is Mr. Groller... Don't sleep on us!!!!!!!!
