Close but No Cigar!

The West Deptford Eagles defeated the Red Raiders tonight 21-14. I had the pleasure of getting the game described to me by my clandestine informant since I wasn't able to be there. Thank you! As far as I know, the game will be broadcast on Comcast local Channel 5 on Saturday, the 25th, but I'm not sure what time.

From what was described to me and from what I've heard others tell - this was a fabulous game. The Mighty Mighty Raiders came to play and lit up WD's field. If there was any doubt about young Mr. Hodges....fear no more. He played one helluva game and he's only going to get better. Shavon Mears rushed for over 100yds and never took a down off. Anthony Pierce made the WD defense account for him with a catch over the middle. Shane Mitchell was 6 for 7 I believe. Alex Silvestro caught the 2 (count'em 2) TD passes from Hodges and also managed to get open on the last play in the endzone but there was no way for the QB to see him since he was busy fending off Eagles and got turned to the side. Ra'Chard Braxton had an Int stripped away, otherwise, who knows. The line play, Big D Hester, Bobbie Barnes and company, did an outstanding job.

The Raiders did everything I (we) asked them to do....unfortunately, the score didn't end in their favor. It happens.

Next stop, the Bulldogs come to exit 18B. It's not going to be pretty.
