NIAGARA FALLS NOTEBOOK 6: Wolverines will rise to the occasion
Some might say the Wolverines are crumbling before our eyes. They suffered a crushing loss to Williamsville North a week ago and appear to be without suspended starting quarterback Bruce Hartinger for the rest of the season. Not to mention, their toughest two opponents — North Tonawanda and Lockport — are still on tap.
“Good teams rise to the occasion and we are a good team,” coach Don Bass said. “I always tell the team to forget about the last and concentrate on the next and that’s what we’ll do. We will bounce back.”
Bass added that running backs Durelle Crittenden and John Mallard are still suspended from the team along with Hartinger.
• Dale Stewart will continue to run the offense this week. He ran for 17 carries, 137 yards and two touchdown last week from the quarterback position. He also threw the ball well in spots and Bass expects his accuracy to only improve.
One of Stewart’s main targets is Darryl Smith, who Bass called “the most consistent player I have this year.” Tailbacks Quandray Gray, Justin Healy and Bo Payne will continue to share carries, Bass said.
Bass added that Anthony Moss has been steadily improving on both sides of the ball.
• NFHS will play its final home game of the regular season tomorrow when the unbeaten Lumberjacks come to town. NT features several weapons and a unique offense to defend — the triple option.
“NT is a great program — nothing fancy, just hard-nose, mistake-free football,” Bass said. “We have to exceed their intensity and play hard-nose, mistake-free football. We have to hang cloth in every gap and tackle, tackle, tackle.”
Bass also said he plans to use the David vs. Goliath story to motivate his team prior to the game.
