Cubs’ vs Bearcats for Battle of the Bears

The Olney Junior High [OJH] and Olney High School [OHS] Junior Varsity teams hosted the Hawley Bearcats for regular and 6-man football. Neither the Junior High or Junior Varsity Cubs won their matchups but both teams fought with pride and grit. The OJH Cubs looked in good form but the Bearcats were just too much for the Cubs and came away with the win.

The JV Cubs who are new to 6-man football seemed to have a lot of trouble in the backfield on offense, mainly due to the center’s wild snaps, making it hard for the Cubs to get the plays off smoothly.

Each play was a scramble to recover from bad snaps. With more experience, the center should be able to work out the issue. The Cubs defense had some amazing blitzes and a few misses for long plays of the Bearcats. With some more work and experience, look for the Cubs to make their mark in the 6-man arena in the future.
