Not sure who was counting players, but Fort Hill started five sophomores on defense tonight at Northern. Not only did they start, they played the entire game with the first group until the 2nd half running clock.
CB Neek Taylor
NG Jacob VanMeter
LB Carson Bender
DE Christian Riley
DT Gavin Rose
The offense has two different sophomores starting on the OL (not counting Bender at halfback).
OT Ryder Canan
OG Casey Martz
The other three starters on the OL were juniors.
That's never happened on the Hill. Not even close. Thought they all played well. You have to like the future here. Going to be some growing pains this year along the way. But it's a talented group with a large amount of bodies. All in all FH has 10 sophomores on varsity and they all played at length tonight.
