Cats Beat Barlow in Opener 34-21




It was an exciting night at Wildcat Stadium as the Greg Fisher era began. A Tough Barlow Bruin Team led by the #1 running back in the State in Malcolm Johnson came in to beat the Cats in this 2008 Opener. It was an exciting game right from the start and after a shaky start the Cats got on Track. The Cats young line stood up to the Bruins on both sides of the ball and the defense kept Johnson in check other than two plays where he was able to score.

The Cats Offense scored several times behind the leadership of Josh Hill and the nifty running of David Aguilar who went for 153 yards. Robert Casteel hauled in a great touch down pass deep in the corner of the end zone in double coverage as well. Most exciting was the 90 yard kick off return by Daniel Keel as this Junior showed his blazing speed! It was a hard fought win and a good start to the 2008 season. Surely there is work to be done but Players and Fans alike left with the sense that the Cats are on track! Now on to week #2 and the Grant Generals!
