Hammer Update

Well here we are entering week 3 and the jury is still out on how good this team really is. On the one hand, the Hammers were pummeled by Haskell in the season opener. The game was so ugly in fact, that I didn't even cover it on this site. Turnovers and the absence of key players played a huge part in the loss, but I don't know if we could've beaten them that night anyway. In short, we just didn't show up.
Then Bronte came to town. The Longhorns were not a very good football team, or did we make them look bad? Either way we whooped 'em pretty good. Josh Reese showed the critics what he can do when he's healthy and focused. At times his speed looked similar to his cousin Jackie's, who shredded defenses just two years ago. If and when Josh realizes that he's special, this team is headed for greatness.
Hunter Kennedy had a great game on both sides of the ball. The kid is a monster. He can do just about anything he wants on the line of scrimmage. We'll see how well he does against the competition as the teams get better.
Coleman is no joke. We'll know just how good (or bad) we are after Friday's game.
