Thank you Randall Risley for allowing me to use your photos.
The Chester Yellow jackets make the trip to Franklin County tonight to face the C-Z-R. Chester is coming off of a 34-7 loss to Carmi-White-County. The Bearcats fell to the Johnston City Indians 54-0.
it is Senior Night for three seniors, Trinton Bishop, Scotty Killip, and Zach Marvel.
I have been keeping up with their JV team and they picked up a forfeit win over JC on Monday.
I asked Yellow Jacket coach Billy Belton fill me in on the S-V-W-W and Carmi game. “We played Sesser very well. We lost 20-6, and it was 12-6 with 3 mins left in the game. Sesser and Chester both played very hard. I was proud of our boys, and how hard they played. It was a very physical game, and fun to be a part of.”
“We lost to Carmi 34-7. Carmi is a very good football team, a playoff team. They have 15 Seniors. They were big up front and they ran the ball very well. They are always well coached. Coach Simon does a great job. Nick Meyer was 10/24 133 passing, 1 TD. Keith Kiner lead the team in receiving 6-61, Curt Meyer 2-27, Calvin Clendenin 1-11 1 TD. Nick Meyer Lead the rushing attack with 69 yards. Mason Westerman added 3 Carries for 19 Yards. Over all we are healthy. We still have a great chance to make the playoffs. I feel like we have a very good football team.”
When you have three seniors and 24 kids in your program, it has been a struggle for the Bearcats. They need a game where they can play a full 48 minutes, then make a good showing at winless Hamilton County next Friday night.
