The blast was sudden and devastating . But it didn't force a quick evacuation of partisan Hurricanes fans from Baynard Stadium in Wilmington DE. They actually stuck around and watched the Hurricanes punish the Monarchs and hand them the worst defeat in team history since losing to the Olney Gators 40-0 back in 2005. Yes, the Monarchs 2011 playoff bubble burst at the clenched hands of the No Limit Hurricanes who pinned them 46-0.
From the effects, the Monarchs suffered no apparent permanent damage and shed little blood. Just a dream. We had some kids crying and upset on the sideline as the game was ending said Monarchs skipper Greg James. But it happens. What can I say. I know anytime you make the playoffs and are trying to win the "CHIP" there is going to be disappointment when you finally lose. But hey, we are young team and still learning. And truth be told, nobody expect us to be here. Nobody expected us to come this far. And, the score might not indicate it tonight, but we got a good group of kids and I'm already excited about next year.
The 'Caines baffled the Monarchs from the door. They came out in a hurry up offense and dominated the contest from start to finish. They racked up 34 point in the first half and another 22 points in the second half. They scored at will and never let up even when the game was clearly out of reach. "Heck", I still think they are out there running plays one Monarch parent stated on the ride home.
I knew we were going to have our hands full Coach Greg said after the game. But 46 points is a little ridiculous. There kids. At some point in time you would figure that the "Caines would let up, take there foot of the gas or maybe even take some of there starters out Coach Tone said. They chose not to. I mean they have 20 something players on there roster. I lost a lot of respect for that organization today. I thought we was better than that. But I'm not going to complain. I'm not going to file a grievance with the league as per PWLS (Pop Warner Little Scholars) Rules. We will take this one on the chin because my philosophy is this "What comes around goes around". We will be back. Believe that...
