Either way this one goes is a good test and learning experience! Will only make the Rams better.
Here is a little Bio info about Anthony Franson.
His father, grandfather, great grandfather, and great great grandfather are all graduates of the Naval Academy.
And all were either Captains or Admirals.
And his mother, not to be outdone, flew fighter bombers in Iraq.
Anthony has a 4.50 gpa average at Reidsville High School and is enrolled in the IB Program.
Thinking this will be the best team we play during the regular season. Think eastern almanacs will still be tough later in the year.
Btw, Mule, Shaw committed to UNC today!
And
Dont forget big brother, who is currently at VMI
I said this in a earlier post, but glad Page and Reidsville finally get to tango, regardless of classification quality opponents are what Page wants on the non conference schedule and this is right up that alley.
Some thoughts on the game, Page is young and still in rebuilding mode after some poor form derived from the prior coach. Now year 2 with coach Robertson and Page is back on the up and up. The kids are playing with intensity again and giving it their all. The culture restored. Page is competing again but they are not content with just trying to compete of course, they want to win the games. They just played a neighboring rival tough at Dudley, and while I was pleased with the effort showed, It's still a bit early.. so execution wasn't the best on Friday, but I fully expect coach and the guys to clean things up this week in practice and have the horses ready to run.
I heard that Reidsville is a bit young as well, but the Rams probably have a bit more experience and savvy with big games. No doubt Reidsville is the favorite in this one and while in the past Page usually can wear down smaller teams numbers wise, Page doesn't have that luxury, yet.. numbers aren't has high yet and the depth Page usually had in the past needs to be built back up, so don't expect Page to be able to dominate in the 2nd half like they used to be able to say 4 or 5 years ago. Page does have some good size and speed across the board, im very interested to hear about how they might match up against the Rams. What does Reidsville have up front this year on both sides of the ball?

Reidsville offensive line is still a work in progress, they did play well against western alamance.
Reidsville offensive line has been good with size from 2016 to this past spring season. We have one starter back from the line, so we are a little smaller than usual. The defensive line is solid though, we have a freshman starting at dt, he's small but a good player, will likely play linebacker next season.
We are missing our best defensive player a olb, who should be back by october.
Cool little fact about this match up Coach Teague's and Coach Robertson's families get together every Sunday and share a meal.
Both coaches are interviewed by the Greensboro N&R's Joe Sirera. Robertson and Teague interviews

Rams could get Turner back at LG this Friday. He is a Freshman but a good one.
They also play a lot of golf together in Reidsville.
A former president said once, either you’re with us, or you’re with the enemy. Friday evening, Doug is an enemy.
Reidsville has the same issue from what I know. Surprised me somewhat.

We have the same bye week so it could get rescheduled. Personally I’d rather move on and play someone else
21-13 Rams. Page having a hard time stopping the big pass plays.
Reidsville QB lowers his head and crowns Page safety's helmet to helmet on the 5 yardline and fumbles the ball. Page runs the rest of the clock out. 21-13 half.
Al Lee with 3 TD passes in first half -- 87 yards to Flippen, 72 yards to Peoples and 80 yards to McCain.
Page led 13-7 early.
Page led 13-7 early.
Reidsville TD -- Paul Widerman 1-yard run -- Franson kick makes it 28-13 with 7:27 left in third quarter
I walk back from the concession stand and the wheels came off a little bit. Reidsville scored on a 4th and goal from the 2 and the opposite side linesman called the TD when the closer ref did not. Very confused on that one, it was very close. Then the rams score on a punt return 4 plays later when Pages coverage fell asleep a bit. 35-13 rams, game is about over at this point.
Make it 42-13 after Flippen's 52-yard run ... 7:57 left in game
it’s crazy flippen is only a sophomore definitely will be a high recruit. Still don’t understand why watlimgton isn’t the feature back. He’s the running back until he gets tired smh
