The season has been long and now the dress rehearsal is over and time to put the show on stage.

There should be a standing room only audience for the four act play.

Yes, this could be an actual four quarter game for Bracken. The team has not had that experience since the first game of the season.

Kerrville OLH Hawks are high in the rankings and have just one loss to Austin Hill Country which was the only team to take your Warriors to a four quarter game.

The Hawks can score points with their lowest output being 54 points, which happened on opening night, in a victory over Geneva.

Kerrville has one of the most balanced offenses in 6-man football. Offensively they averages 470 yards per game with a balanced run and passing game.

Rushing game produces 248 yards per game while the passing game comes in with 222 yards via the air ways.

Those two weapons will put a lot of pressure on defenses as opponents have to pick their poison.

Both of the poisons are lethal and can get you quickly if not treated.

The player applying this concoction for his opponents is Marshall Walker. Walker can run by you or if he gets in trouble will pass it over you.

There has been eight teams that could not make it back to the hospital in time for a remedy to the lethal dose of poison.

The completion rate comes in at 74 percent and one third of the completions have resulted in a touchdown.

The completion has also produced 21 yards per catch.

So, if you decide to play the passing lanes, then get ready for another poison apple in the form of 14 yards per carry and 42 touchdowns.

Poison can come in many forms, so the Warriors will have to stay away from the fumble on the kick-off.

Kerrville OLH has perfected the on-side kick and in doing so has caused much angst among other Warrior teams in the past.

The Hawks might be successful several times during the course of a game or just once or twice…however the play can result in another chance to score quickly and put the opposition in a hole.

Yes, Kerrville OLH does have weaknesses.

The other main reason OLH will on-side kick will rest on their defense. The Hawk defense is not very good and OLH will relegate a successful on-kick as a defensive stop.

The OLH defense has one shut out to SA Lutheran and has given up 90 points to Austin Hill Country.

OLH’s defense will not be able to stop Bracken’s offense, so the way to success will be that nasty on-side kick for a stop or trying to force turnovers.

Another weakness for OLH would be in the bonus kick. The Hawks are only successful 35% of the time.

And on forcing turnovers? How about six interceptions and seven fumbles that have been recovered.

BCS has committed just four turnovers for the year with two interceptions and two lost fumbles. In fact, the Warriors have only fumbled three times for the year.

With as many points Kerrville OLH has scored, the team has forced only four mercy games this season.

The ReSporter does not want to give away the ending…but if Bracken can control the poisoned on-side kick, then the curtain could fall before the end of the game.

BCS will score the most points in their history and will bring down the curtain.
