Rockies Head Football Coach John Barron knew something had to change after the Warsaw loss. That change came in a couple forms to get a 34-0 win over the Northridge Raiders.
“I just felt we needed to change things up defensively. Our corners were struggling and I wanted to fix that.”, said Barron.
That tweek by Coach Barron allowed a total of 168 Northridge yards.
“I want our fans to understand we went from a 4-man front to a 3-man front in just one week. That means these kids made that adjustment quickly. I was really pleased with how they played against a tough offense.”, added Barron.
The other change was at quarterback where Senior Ike Kastner made his season debut. He ran for 220 yds and 3 touchdowns.
“Tonight showed why Ike is important to this team. He has faced adversity. Dealt with it. Want ‘s to show everyone he can represent this program with the right re-dedication. He means a lot of the field in the leadership role. Our players know what he can do, and they believe in his ability.”, said Barron. “We (coaches) believe in him”.
Plymouth now 2-2 on the season. 1-1 vs NLC.
