PC has tons of heart

After covering Putnam City’s 17-14 win over Westmoore, one thing is clear to me now:

Putnam City may not have a team stacked full of playmakers and top recruits, but they have a very good team. And the respond with a vengence when backed against a wall.

As the game unfolded, I thought PC was left for dead. The ball was deep in their own territory with just over three minutes left and Westmoore lining up for a 4th-and-inches conversion attempt. PC showed me a lot, not only by stepping up and stopping the Jaguars, but also taking the ball the length of the field in 1:47 and scoring. The Pirates then stepped up and stopped Westmoore’s offense again to secure the win.

I’m not sure how far PC will go in the playoffs, but one thing is clear. They will have to be BEATEN. They WILL NOT give up and WILL NOT beat themselves.
