No doubt a battle was played in Cherokee last night. The score doesn't reflect what a game it was.
I was very disappointed in the lack of discipline displayed by Cherokee players. The entire game they were making gestures and comments to the Rosman sideline and stands.
Of course it wasn't all the players. Hats off to the Cherokee lineman-you guys are a class act!
I'm not going to name names because at the end of the day, this is kids. The "skilled players" ( select few) provoked the players, sidelines, and stands all night. To the point that "one" flipped off the Rosman stands and sideline when they scored a touchdown to take the lead.
The referees allowed this to continue throughout the night and late in the 4th quarter we almost had a brawl on our hands.
At the end of the game Rosman lined up like men and went out to shake hands. These select Cherokee players walked the line but refused to shake hands.
I highly suggest to everyone that when Cherokee and Murphy play to have the top referees and maybe even extra law enforcement. Referees did a horrible job in allowing the gestures, trash talking, and illegal hits to continue throughout the night. This game will have to be controlled or it will get out of hand.
