San Tan Youth Football League Eagles

The Eagles knew going into week 4 that their date with the Predators would be a tough test. The game lived up to its pre-game billing as the Eagles (3-1) and Predators (3-1) battled thru four tough quarters of football. In the end the Predators prevailed 13-6, but the Eagles fought the good fight and left with their heads held high.

The Predators wasted little time getting on the scoreboard as they returned the opening kickoff for the games first touchdown. The Eagles returned the favor in the second quarter on a 90 yard jaunt by Walker Pattyson on a perfectly executed reverse play. The Eagles failed to punch in the extra point and trailed 7-6.

Led by Reed Erwin, the offense took advantage of great blocking and hard-nosed running from the Eagles stable of capable running backs. Walker Pattyson and Dakota Neer found themselves in the open field on a regular basis and stymied the Bulldogs defense with speed and athleticism.
