Continue ReadingThe Tea Titans finished with the 11-0 perfect season as well. They showed a balanced run-passing attack all year, they would start rushing the ball for as much as they could get, then hitting big pass plays when needed. They opened and closed the season against an always impressive Canton C-Hawk squad, narrowly beating them the first time, then handling them in the big game. Tea ran a double wing, with a WR formation, usually a power run formation, but they could run it with both speed and power. They could also go spread and hurt you with both the pass and the run too. Defensively ran a 4-3, with some dudes on the front that were great in run stopping and getting pressure on the QB. The LB corps flowed around the field and were also good in run support and pass coverage. The DB’s were very athletic and had lockdown on their WR but could also fill in run support. While they graduate a big group of Seniors this year, they are not left in a bad spot, they will return players with good amounts of experience.
