Bethel Post Game Report

Great Opening Weekend!!!
The Varsity and JV teams started off our season with two great wins for the program.  On Saturday our guys came ready to play, and I feel they fought hard all day long.  We had to overcome adversity with a few early turnovers, but everyone stuck together and we pulled through for the win.  It was a great way to kick off the 2007 season against a great opponent.
On Sunday our JV team took the field against Iowa Central Community College.  They also played extremely hard from opening kickoff to the final buzzer.  We moved ball well offensively scoring 47 points and the defense pitched a shutout.  Our younger guys got a chance to show what they can do in a game setting and perform under pressure.

 Off Week
With no game this Saturday to prepare for this weekend, we are focusing on fixing mistakes made in week one and healing up bumps and bruises.  Offensively we are working on being more physical up front, and cleaning up our route running.  Defensively the focus is on finishing drills, and playing at a high tempo. 

 Recruiting
Our coaching staff was able to attend a bunch of area high school games last Friday night and was impressed with the talent level in the area.  We also had a Game Day Visit for prospects this past weekend and had a great group of young men and their families in attendance.  We have three more Game Day Visits and are excited to get many more talented prospects on campus.  Those dates are:
Sept. 22^nd – vs. Coe (Family Weekend)
Oct. 6^th – vs. Cornell (Homecoming)
Nov. 3^rd – vs. Dubuque (Senior Day)
