The OL/DL is my biggest concern going into next year. We don’t have a ton of experience returning, and PNG won’t have the size up front that we’ve gotten used to in recent seasons.
FINAL: SOC 28, PNG 0
- Thread starter IndianFan
- Start date
The DL will have two or three players coming back. #97, #32, #96, and one or two more that rotated in this season. We will miss #35 at LB--he was a tremendous player. He was fast to the ball, he would hit you, wrap-up, and get you on the ground.
The OL will have #75 back. We are out of 6'4" and 6'5" 290 lbs. OL kids...unless some kids hit a growth spurt. Jansen Ware, Christian Jackson, and Aaron Wolford spoiled us in 2022-2025.
Lots of talent returning at QB, RB, H-Back, and WR.
I feel really excited for next year! Mark my words... Ashworth will become a seasoned QB by next season. The young man has the skills to take it to the next level with Tyson Henry beside him. South Oak Cliff, if they are lucky, will face a stout PNG offense as well as defense. No doubt Connor Bailey would have given us the shot to beat this small college recruiting high school that calls themselves the Mecca. But just wait to see what happens next season. I want some love when I am proven right.

We'll still have 6-4 280 Ace Reeves. And he has another year to grow. He was pancaking some Bears tonight.

Expect Melissa to end SOC season next week. I was pleased with the officiating crew compared to last year’s game.
PNG offense put the defense in a hole time after time. Left on the field too long. Defense deserved a 14-10 score not 28-0.
No doubt. Ashworth did all you could reasonably expect of him but you just can’t replace the experience. Fortunately, Ashworth now has experience that will help him greatly next year.
SOC's QB made some great throws. WRs were good. The RBs were as advertised. Those two back are quick tough runners. OL not impressed. Big but just not that good. SOC's RBs got a ton of yards after contact. SOC's defense...fast and they tackle. PN-G saw some great defenses vs. MH and SOC. Bodes well for next year. Ashworth has seen and played against elite defenses. He's been in the heat vs. fast defenses. He now knows the speed of the game. If PN-G can find some OL kids next year to compliment #75, the Indians should be pretty salty again next season.

Need 75 to calm down a bit… could have been called on things a few times tonight. I get it, it’s the heat of the game but he will be the veteran next year, hoping he learns a little more control. I think the Oline should be good, wondering more in the Dline personally. Depth is already a little shaky, should line up good though, they will figure something out.
We would have slowed them down even more if the offense was able to do a better job of keeping them off the field. As good as their defense was we were still able to move the ball pretty well at times but kept shooting ourselves in the foot in one way or another.

He got hammered on 2 or 3 plays and he willed himself up. Tough cookie.
No question. He did well under monumental pressure (not just during this game but during his time on the varsity as a whole).

75 is a warrior. Anything he did paled in comparison to the ongoing antics. Reeves, Henry, Rafa Black all got tired of hearing the jawing on the field. They never backed down from the intimidation efforts. 100% proud of #75 Ace Reeves and what he accomplished this year.
I was there. Great game.
I'm wondering if the turf or field is messed up. We seemed to be stumbling a lot. I think all of the post game analysis here covered it pretty well.
What I really enjoyed was seeing all of the happy and bright faces. A great community. Proud to be an Indian.

Thank you Coach Joseph
Despite what some people seem to want to say and imply on social media, the PN-G, community, fans and the support they bring every week is top notch in the state. And they all know it too.
