Interboro (Bucs) Chester
Report
by James Peach Howard
Turn back almost a year ago (Nov. 1st to
be exact) in the rain and mud the Clippers bullied the Bucs to a 30-12 final.
Now come to the present, a nice clear sunny autumn day. The Bucs return the
favor and beat Chester 40-18. As earlier losses the Clippers were in every
game. But not on this day Interboro controlled the game from beginning to the
end. They were just stronger and wanted it more as was stated from several
players leaving the Chester Athletic Complex. That was the best team we’ve seen
this year as was stated from the coaching staff.
Interboro led going into the half 22-0, then scored
again to start the 3rd quarter to make it 28-0. Then the Clippers
came to life, Jamir Green threw a 25 yard TD pass to Rashee Alexander to put
Chester on the board. Five minutes later, Jaquan Flood caught a 10 yard leaping
TD pass and the Clippers were within 28-12. Interboro then stretched their lead
in the 4th quarter putting the game away. Rashee Alexander then
caught another pass racing 43 yards to close out the scoring.
In the loss there were some good things as Jamir
Green threw 3 TD passes (has 4TD passes since becoming the starter). Rashee
Alexander caught 2 TD passes and had an interception to stop a TD. D’Andre Dill
had 13 tackles (11solo & 2 TFL’s) as well as Devan Freeman, Arlo Lee, Jr.
& Ed Nelson, Jr. having strong defensive showing also. The loss drops
Chester to 2-5 (overall) 2-1 (league).The Clippers can still win the league
title if they win their last two games and get some help. And that starts with
defending league champ Academy Park. It’ll be Chester’s last home game of the
2015 season. It’s also homecoming as well as senior day. Kickoff is at noon with
all the homecoming festivities prior to kickoff and at halftime. Also the
senior football players as well as the senior cheerleaders will be acknowledged
before the start of the game.
Homecoming game, Saturday, October 31st
at 12 PM
