Hillbilly 14 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 The varsity teams went three quarters Bluefield "won" 30-27 Nitro was huge and had a very effective passing game with a talented corp of receivers and a dandy starting QB. Bluefield is not likely to see that good an offense all year with the possible exception of Martinsburg. David Purdue was sick and not available and the offense looked like it was not wanting to "show" too much too soon. Defense played well I thought against a pretty potent offense. All in all both teams looked good for this early in the season. The Jayvee played one quarter and scored two touchdowns to Nitro's none.

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Thanks for the information. I'm ready to see this team on the field Friday night for the scrimmage against Pulaski County. Although, the offense will show even less b/c you know Graham will be there watching... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabidbeaver 90 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 I watched bluefield practice today and spoke with a couple of parents who attended the scrimmage at nitro and said that at first Bluefield started out flat but after they settled down they played better.They said that Nitro was huge on defence.Bluefield had a hard time running on them but Bluefields passing game looked good.David perdue did not play due to a minor illness.

blufan04 12 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 Thanks for all of the information. I'd say we really won't know everything about the team until the Graham game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabidbeaver 90 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 A kid whose last name was Bland [Tony]?played in place of Perdue did a good job.Also a kid from Princeton came over with Mike Davis that looks promising but basketball is the main reason he came to bluefield.

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Any name on the kid that came to Bluefield with Davis, position? Again thanks for all the info... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabidbeaver 90 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 all that I was told that the kid came over with Mike Davis.His practice number was #49 and was at the running back position.From what I saw,he was taking quite a few snaps mostly on 2nd team.He had decent speed and showed some quickness.Also the kid named Cecil Smith that transferred looked liked he had potential.He is tall with a lanky build,but this is his first year of playing football.Hopefully he can develope and contribtue.

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 I've heard about Cecil Smith since the first part of June. Apparently, he is going to play either receiver or TE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 So here's a question, looking at the roster this afternoon I noticed a couple of missing freshman names that I expected to see. Where are Shawn Steptoe and Ansel(sp?) Ponder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
