Rebound from Victory?

Last year, we had seven home games and of those seven, three were conference games.

This year, we are only going to have five home games and we catch the three road games in conference.

All three road conference games are in a row and the second of the three is Friday night at Southern Nash

A lot of people think the Gryphons did not play well Monday night. In some areas, we didn't, but one area where we did was on defense.

Yes, SWE dominated the clock, but in the end, the idea of the game is to outscore the other side which the Gryphons did.

You must also give some credit to the Cougarst. They are pretty good. A lot of the reason why we didn't do what we normally do was because of them.

It took a lot to win Monday night. Even though we won, how much energy did it take from us to win?

Can we rebound and have what it takes Friday night to get the job done?

You know if Southern were to win, it would be tied for first place. So they have plenty of reason to try to beat us twice in a row at Southern Nash.

The regular season ends two weeks from Friday night, so we are so close to the end to have a slip up now.

Speaking of rebounding, the JV Gryphons got back on the winning track tonight beating the Firebirds 26-13.

The news is not good in the NEW 6 Soccer tournament finals, however, as Northern Nash got a penalty kick with 10 minutes left and beat the Gryphons 1-0.

State playoffs begin next week for soccer.

Friday morning, the Gryphon doubles teams start the state championships in Burlington. We will pass along the results when blogging after the game.

It was rather chilly tonight at the JV game, so if you are not brave enough to make the trip to Southern, we start our Gryphon propaganda at 7 p.m. on AM 1390.

You know the Gryphons are still alive looking for the No. 1 seeding in the football playoffs. But unless they finish without a loss in conference play, they won't get a chance at the top seeding.

I wonder whether we will wear gold jerseys tomorrow?

We are 3-0 in the gold and have scored 119 points while allowing just six. Remember the six that came on a fumble that was picked up by Southern Wayne. And they scored it on second team offense, so the first team defense has not been scored on while in gold.
