North Marion

What's the 411 on this team?  I know that they were state runner-up last year and they have blown out their first two opponents. What type of offense do they run?

To tell you the truth Hwy17 North Marion was a very good team last season due to basically one player, Sr QB Corey Wilsher who threw for over 2,500 yards and a couple of Sr RB's that combined for 2,600 yards rushing. They no longer have Wilsher and those RB's. They do have a Sr laden receiving core if there is a QB who can hit them. Their first two opponents were both pretty weak, Palatka and Forest. In the next 3 weeks that have Hardee, Gainesville, and Vanguard to deal with. I don't really think they will do well against them. Although, if they can get by them then they have clear sailing with the exception of Columbia in their last game. I believe they ran a Pro Set with Wilsher. Don't know what they are running this season, though.

Thanks!  We play them this week is why I ask.  Both they and us had to re-schedule our games from last week so we're both coming off an open date. From what little bit I've seen on Hudl, it looks like they run spread out of the shotgun, and their roster is similar to ours.  I'm looking forward to a great game.

North Marion QB Quinton Gross is only a Junior. However, in the championship game against Cardinal Gibbons, he came in for Wilsher who went down in the first quarter with an injury. He did pretty well driving the Colts for a score. From there on he did not do much of anything. He has little experience as I don't think he got to play much last season. I do know that he throws a few interceptions. The game is at Hardee so advantage to Hardee.

Against Port Charlotte we got burned on the deep pass. Partly due to an over aggressive secondary.  As usual,  we have a good defensive front and a good running game.   We're really excited about playing this team.

North Marion 25 Hardee 13. 

Both teams have good defenses. North Marion was more disciplined and got out to and early lead quick. Penalties are what hurt Hardee more than anything.
