Aftermath of week 1 game vs. St. Xavier
From Community Press reporter Tony Meale
Colerain Hopes to Fix Offensive Woes
No doubt the Cards got a reality check last Friday. Unfortunately it doesn't get any easier with the upcoming titanic struggle against the Panthers at the Pit on Sunday @ Noon.
If you are a Colerain fan, and you must be if you are reading this website, then we at WeAreColerain.com IMPLORE YOU to get to the high school, buy a ticket for the game, and go and support our Cardinals (get there early...10:30AM!). A second loss on the young season would put in jeopardy one of the longest playoff appearance streaks in the state, currently sitting at 9 years (2000-2008). The young men will need our support as "the Pit" will prove to be one of the toughest places our Cardinals have ever had to play.
Starting today the Cards are 0-0. Let's get out there and make a lot more noise than we did on Friday as our program is going to be showcased on National Television. This is our chance to show the NATION what WE ARE COLERAIN means.
Hope to see you there!!

Boy's JV & Varsity Soccer Both Fall to Sycamore 3-0
By Mike Hoffman
Junior Varsity
The boys junior varsity played Sycamore at Sycamore. The game did not go the way of the Cardinals. Sycamore's passing ability was very impressive, but the Cardinals showed no signs of quitting. Colerain was only down by 1 goal at the end of the first half. During the second half however, Colerain's inability to generate much offense and playing on their own half of the field most of the time would allow Sycamore to score 2 more goals. The game ended with Sycamore winning 3-0.
Varsity
It was a great evening for Soccer. The boys varsity team looked like they were ready for a tough match against the 2008 GMC champs. Sycamore started off strong, scoring 3minutes into the game with nice passing and ball control by Sycamore's offense. Colerain picked up the pace and showed signs of determination, ending the first half only down by 1 goal. In the second half Colerain did a better job handling Sycamore's high pressure game, however Sycamore winning what seemed like 80 percent of the calls would prove fatal for the Cardinals. Sycamore's offense was able to score two more goals in the second half. Colerain did not quit, late in the game Colerain's offense was able to generate a couple of nice shots, shots coming from Ryan Theile and Austin Root. Colerain's goalie Mitch Revetta provided a nice highlight by stopping a penalty kick from a questionable call by the line judge. The game would end with Sycamore winning 3-0. It was a tough match for the Cardinal's giving them plenty to think about in this young season.
Colerain's next match is against Anderson, Tuesday September 1st at Colerain.

St. Xavier Impressive in Shutout of Cardinals
Al Gabriel
WeAreColerain.com
The St. Xavier Bombers shut out the Colerain Cardinals on Friday night behind Connor Hundley's 161 yards rushing and two TD's, 16-0. The loss was the second season opening loss for Colerain to coach Steve Specht's Bombers in the last five years and both losses were by shutout. Colerain was held to 200 yards of total offense by the impressive X defense and were lead by Sr. QB Greg Tabar's 89 yards on the ground.
The road from here does not get any easier for Colerain as Ohio Division 1 State Runner-up Elder will be the Cardinals next opponent. The Panthers open up the season tonight versus East St. Louis High School.
Video clips from the game will be available for viewing later today.

Article: Juniors become perfect RB duo
From today's Cincy Enquirer:
Juniors become perfect RB duo
A nicely written article by the enquirer on our starting backfield of JR Tryaion Durham and JR Tyler Williams. Without question, they will need to continue their development and be even better by year end if the Cardinals wish to complete their "unfinished business" and bring home the hardware from Canton in December.
GO CARDINALS!
BEAT ST. XAVIER!!!

Hello Soccer Fans….

August 25, 2009
Colerain Boys Junior Varsity
The Colerain Boys Junior Varsity opened up the 2009 season by hosting Walnut Hills. In the first half of the game, Colerain was able to generate numerous shots on goal. Several shots were taken by Joe Flohr, Jon Armbruster and Nick Kruse had one bounce off the goal post. Colerain’s defense played really well not letting Walnut Hills get a shot off inside the Colerain 18 yard line. The first half ended with a score of 0-0. The beginning of the second half was pretty much status quo. However, with about 22 minutes left in the game Walnut Hills was able capitalize on a free kick, about 25 yards out, hitting a mid-fielder making a run down the center of the field. The mid-fielder was able to finish the ball giving Walnut Hills a 1-0 lead. Colerain came close to scoring a few more times but the clock ran out, ending the game with a 1-0 loss.
Colerain Boys Varsity
The Colerain Boys Varsity kicked off the 2009 season hosting Walnut Hills in what would prove to be an exciting game. The first half of the game was played at a very fast pace. Colerain’s defense did a great job of keeping Walnut Hills out, and keeping the ball pushed forward. Colerain’s offense worked the ball well generating many shots. The first half ended with a score of 0-0. With about 24 minutes left in the second half Walnut Hills was able to put together a drive that would score a goal, giving Walnut Hills a 1-0 lead. The goal was questioned by Colerain as to whether it actually crossed the goal line or not, but the Line Judge was right there and made the call. The game would start to get a little more physical from this point forward. With about 14 minutes left in the game, Colerain’s offense was able to work the ball down the side allowing Ben Mikkelson to make a nice cross that Mike Davidson was able to finish, tying the game at 1-1. Mitch Stehlin, Ben Mikkelson and Gulet Ahmad got a few more shots off before the whistle was blown ending the game at a 1-1 tie.

Key Players & Stats (Comments)
ST. XAVIER BOMBERS
QB - #14 Luke Massa (Sr.) – Only played 4 games last year (broken collarbone)
RB - #2 Tanner Vidal (Sr.) – 1st time starter, injured ‘08 pre-season
RB - #23 Daniel Braswell (Jr.) – 1st time starter
RB - #4 Conor Hundley (So.) – 1st time starter
WR/DB - #19 Will Carroll (Sr.) – Only 2-way player for St. Xavier. 2 int’s in ‘08
OL - #78 Matt James (Sr.) – 6’7” 290lb 4-Star recruit
DL - #10 Nigel Muhammad (Sr.) – returning starter, 8 sacks in ‘08
LB/RB - #8 Steven Daniels (Jr.) – got going late in 2008, doubles as occasional FB
DB (Adjuster) - #22 Nick Weston (Sr.) – 1 FR, 3 int, in ’08, now moves to all important “adjuster” position in 3-3-5 defense
WILD CARD – WR/RB - #82 Kevin Milligan (Fr.) – yep…another Milligan! Rumor has it that this "diaper dandy" WILL be suited up on Friday night and could make an appearance either punting or on offense. He is already as big as big brother Danny was when he graduated just last year.
COLERAIN CARDINALS
QB - #8 Greg Tabar (Sr.-CAPT) – returning starter, led Cardinals to Region 4 final
TB - #1 Tyler Williams (Jr.) – recently ran electronic 4.4/40 yard dash at UC camp
FB - #34 Trayion Durham (Jr.) – if possible, he’s bigger and faster than ’08.
OL - #71 Brandon Good (Sr.-CAPT) – Lone returning starter from ’08. At Center, will lead an inexperienced OL
DL - #50 Jake Blust (So.) – 1st time starter
LB - #5 Tyon Dixon (Sr.) – University of Louisville recruit, blazing speed at LB position
LB - #44 Jarrett Grace (Jr.) – Is a wrecking machine @ 6’4”, 210 lbs, already offered by UC after limited action his Sophomore year
DB - #21 Chris Dukes (Jr.) – 2nd year starter
DB - #7 Jovanta “Bam” Harrison (Sr.-CAPT) – 2nd year starter, 3 int’s in ‘08
WILD CARD – WR/DB - #24 Jordan Flueck (Jr.) – transfer to Colerain, looking to shore up the blocking on the edge as a WR and provide depth on the defensive side of the ball.
Keys to Victory for Colerain
• OFFENSIVE LINE PLAY – 4 new full-time starters are getting in the trenches for the Cardinals this year as Senior Captain C-Brandon Good is the only returnee from last season. The triple option is not an easy offense to defend and it is sometimes and even tough offense to run. It would be great if Colerain was opening up against a lesser opponent to help give the OL time to gel as a unit but they will be expected to perform at a very high level against an opponent like St. Xavier. Containing St. X sackmaster Nigel Muhammad (8 sacks in ’08) will be key. They must hold their blocks and allow the magic of Tabar-Williams-Durham to work behind them.
• DEFENSIVE LINE PLAY – Without question, this is an area of emphasis for the Cards this week. St. Xavier is going to have a big, strong OL led by All-world OT Matt James (Sr.) who at 6’7”, near 300 lbs is a mountain of a young man and is responsible for protecting QB Luke Massa’s (Sr.) blindside. Though undersized, the strength and speed of this set of defensive lineman cannot be underestimated. They will have the ability to slow down a good St. Xavier running game and should allow the fast, athletic LB’s to make plays on the QB.
• SPECIAL TEAMS – So far this pre-season, no one has stepped up and asserted themselves as the varsity kicker. Colerain suffered a missed XP and missed FG during the Moeller scrimmage. That simply can’t be the case against a team like St. Xavier when it counts. Punting seems to be in capable hands. The punt/kickoff return teams will also play a big factor as short fields mean less chance for turnovers. Punt/Kickoff return coverage was emphasized as the year went on last year and has seen an intense concentration this pre-season. Expect that area to be much improved.
Bottom-Line
Both of these teams are good and they know each other’s tendencies so it should be a very close, hard-fought win for one or the other. While I do like the overall experience that Colerain brings back over St. Xavier, I’ve seen enough of Steve Specht coached teams to know that the minute you think they aren’t capable of doing something, that’s when they do it! If Colerain can eat up clock and keep St. Xavier QB Luke Massa (Sr.) and his high-flying aerial assault off the field, the Cardinals should have a very good chance at pulling out the W. Starting with a loss, however, would only add more pressure to the already incredibly hyped week 2 matchup against Elder @ the Pit on ESPN.

Colerain Rolls in Scrimmage Opener

Photos: Right, Tabar takes on Defender. Below, Dixon prepares to lead the Defense.
Colerain opened the pre-season with a 42-7 performance against the Harrison Wildcats on Friday night at Colerain High School. "It was a typical scrimmage" said Colerain head coach, Tom Bolden. "We kept it vanilla and rotated a lot of players. We looked to make sure guys were in the right places and picking up their assignments." Colerain has some familiar faces in new places in 2009 and this was not lost on Coach Bolden. "We'll get after them on Monday."
Photos from the scrimmage are now available for viewing and can be found here!

Colerain product and mom have reason to smile
"She didn't mind being asked about how the severity of the injury compared with its timing before football season. That's because she is so happy he is going to be fine."He had surgery five days ago and he is a brand-new kid today," she said. "I would never know he had surgery five days ago, except that he's wearing a path in my stairway. He's not happy to be still. He is good in every way."

For those of you that don't know, former Colerain LB Tyler Moeller (Ohio 2005 Division I Defensive Player of the Year) was seriously injured during a family vacation to Florida in July. Unfortunately, the injury is going to cost him his JR season at Ohio State. Fortunately, both he and his family are well-grounded enough to realize that football is secondary to Tyler's health.
The WeAreColerain.com crew would like to extend our most heartfelt well-wishes to Tyler as he recovers from this horribly senseless act of cowardice. God-willing, we will all get to see Tyler take the field in 2010 for the Scarlet and Gray.
We Are...Colerain!
