Garretson faced Chester on Friday, Oct. 15. This was a crushing game for the Blue Dragons as Chester outplayed GHS, leaving the score 14 -63! It was a defeat that was hard to take.
"We have to learn from Friday and move on,” said Head Coach Chris Long. “Chester made plays and we didn't respond very well. We have to forget about what happened the last play and focus on the next play. I'm confident we will respond with a great effort against Hamlin this week."
It was a brutal way to finish the regular season and our last home game. Now, Garretson (4- 4) will travel to Hayti to play Hamlin County today (Thursday, Oct. 21). GHS is currently 11th in the rankings.
"Hamlin has a good quarterback and they like to throw the football,” said Long. “We have to find a way to pressure him into getting rid of the ball ear- lier than he wants to and defensively we are going to try and get people moving at the snap. We feel that's our best opportunity to help our defense come up with some stops and force turnovers."
