During this football season I am going write a few blogs about the JV A Football Team at Katy Seven Lakes High School ( Spartans), who are part of the Katy ISD, as my step son plays for this team and JV teams usually get no recognition. Katy Seven Lakes beat Dulles this past Wednesday night 14-0 at Dulles High School. This was their second win of the season and this group is undefeated at this point. Seven Lakes and Dulles were tied 0-0 at half time but I believe Seven Lakes excellent defense and team depth wore Dulles out as the game went on. Dulles also has an excellent defensive unit but I noticed several of their linemen played both ways and never came off the field. I also saw a few of these guys asking to be taken out as the 4 TH quarter dragged on for them. These guys were all good players but fatigue I think set in and the Spartan's don't have to play guys both ways as this group is good on both sides of the ball.
One aspect that showed significant amount of improvement for the Spartans was their kicking game. I have watched the Spartans play since the school opened and I painfully remember all too well punts of 20 yards or so and the defense having its back to the wall once again. In fact I can not remember the Spartan's ever having a really good overall kicking game but the JV A team certainly does right now. The punter had one punt that must have gone 60 yard plus net. In addition, historically place kicking has also been a weakness but not now as the current place kicker nailed two extra points during this game and he has excellent technique.
The JV A team plays Foster this coming week on Thursday September 9, 2010 starting at 6:30 PM with the being played at Seven Lakes High School. The JV B Team plays at 4:30 PM on the same day at SLHS. These are really good games and I invite folks out to watch these kids play.
