Halftime X 17 HD 7

Rest of the drives...

X drives close to midfield then punts to the HD 12.
HD fumbles inside their 15 and X returns it for a TD.
HD gets a first down and then punts from the 40.
X gets the ball with about 10 seconds left and runs out the clock.

17-10 X, Hilliard has ball with just under 4 minutes in X territory.

scott, where'd you go?

Sounds like Hilliard Davidson is taking over at midfield with 2:30 left in the game down by 7...

Sounds like one heck of a football game.

Close game. X 17 HD 10.

HD on the X 31 with 1:50 remaining. 4th and 1.

Sorry to leave, actually was doing a few things.

 

[scott91575]

HD got the 1st and they are at the X 22.

 

[scott91575]

1:34 left...HD just got stuffed on a 2nd down run after a pass was knocked down. 3rd and 11.

 

[scott91575]

4th and 11 after an overthrown pass. 49 seconds left.

Pass intercepted by St. X. Game over. X versus Massilon in the finals.

 

[JohnnyCockfight]

What a game.

So it comes down to Ashley vs. Gamble for the state title. Gamble apparently took the game over against St. Eds earlier today, like he's been doing all season long.

 

[scott91575]

Final ydg stats...

HD 248 yds
X 182 yds

Shows what a great team Hilliard is. They outplayed X in many ways. The fumble return for a TD was the difference.

Yeah. Ashley got 99 on 15 carries. Although it seems Cionni is getting alot of touches for X.

Very fortunate to escape this one with a W. Hilliard certainly outplayed us in the second half. Looking forward to the championship game..X has Friday off school so expect to see a ton of Bombers in Canton over the weekend. Now I gotta find a hotel room somewhere...everything is booked.

I was there in 92 only to see a loss. Hopefully you walk away much happier. Go Bombers!

I followed St. X through to the big game that year as well. Scott Sollman was unbelievable.

Good luck to the boys from Cincy!

Yeah, Sollman was in my class. He was amazing, and actually a really good baseball player too (Hence the reason he went to the minors after his ND career). Sadly, I never played on that team even though Coach Rasso asked my dad if he could get me to play. I was a really big kid and pretty athletic (I was in Rasso's gym class and I could let he was surprised at the things I could do at about 300 bills...yes, 3 hundie). Too bad I was a dumb kid focused on academics who swore he wouldn't play football again. A long story.

Anyway, yes, Sollman was amazing. He was damn good, but St. Iggy's team that year was much bigger and physical than our team.

BTW...I'm about 210 now and in good shape. Amazing how things change after high school.
