Freedoms Marcus Hill first noticed the trend on his Samsung Galaxy smartphone. All week, the senior defensive tackle had heard Eagles defensive coordinator Endor Cooper harping about the Battlefield offensive lines tendency to lean on running plays to jump out at defenders. <\/p>\n
But now thanks to his phones free Hudl app he was seeing it on film for himself. <\/p>\n
Armed with the key piece of knowledge, Hill and fellow defender Kyree Campbell entered Saturdays game against the Bobcats with a measured plan of attack and a finesse move called a snatch. <\/p>\n
You let them [linemen] blow past you, and you can essentially attack the quarterback or the ballcarrier, Hill said. <\/p>\n
Hill had all the right moves. He sacked Bobcats quarterback Matt Gallagher three times, and the Eagles held the Bobcats (1-2) to just 98 yards of offense in Freedoms 21-10 win. <\/p>\n
According to Freedom Coach Gary Wortham, Hill the only returning starter on the Eagles offensive line used the past few seasons to glean anything and everything about his position from graduated standouts Gary Wortham Jr. and Mykell Anderson. <\/p>\n
He [Hill] was a young guy playing behind those guys, and he kinda looked up to those guys in terms of the position and trying to learn it, Wortham said. Now, hes taken over at the helm of our D-line corps. <\/p>\n
At 3-0, Freedom sits at the top of the Cardinal District standings. Its a far cry from recent seasons, when Eagles players tended to approach Fridays with a defeatist, yet resilient attitude. <\/p>\n
There were some times in the past where we kinda looked at it as yeah, were going to lose, Hill said. But even though we thought we were going to lose, we always played for pride. <\/p>\n
