Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 my question is, why do you even kick it deep? kick it deep out of bounds or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piratediehard Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 What a great game! Central won it in the last minute they didnt run a kickoff back. Central drove it down or should i say b. williams ran the ball for the score. Defense should have held em to many missed tackles. Congrats central! Vidor played a heck of a game!

Piratediehard Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Vidor has to win out now. and maybe will need a little help to make playoffs. If they play like they did in this game and the Ned. game they should be alright. But DAYTON is going to roll over central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snafu Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Man to see 3 super football games in Vidor vs Ned, Lumberton, and Central was just awesome. These kids have real heart and dont be too suprised to what comes of this team the rest of the season and on to next year we will have some great returners and some good ones moving up. We had them with 59 ticks on the clock and just couldnt get a handle on #5 Williams. That guy can is big fast and hits like an out of control mack truck. With 12 secs left in the game he faked it inside and cut off tackle over the right side and ran over a few tacklers to get in the endzone. The kid just refused to lose!! Vidor again played a hell of a game and came up short. Keep your head up guys as hard as you have fought against Lumberton and Central to end up losing the game shows that you have a good deal of pride and good things will come to you keep up the fight!!!!

KFDM COOP Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Jags jilt Pirates VIDOR - He was so close. On the night Vidor dedicated its playing surface to his late grandfather, Brad Croak broke two tackles and lunged past the east goal line on the newly christened Ivan Croak Field at Pirate Stadium. One minute, eight seconds remained in Friday night's thrilling, ground-shaking, back-and-forth game between the Pirates and the Central Jaguars, and it looked like Croak had just scored the game-winning touchdown for Vidor, capping an emotional night with a storybook ending. Then Brandon Williams shattered it all. The Central quarterback, leading his team on a sprint to the other end of the field, drove a dagger in the Pirates' hearts, scoring on a 12-yard touchdown run with 12 seconds left, giving the Jaguars a 38-34 victory before an overflow homecoming crowd. "It was a great game, but it was a tough game," said Brad Croak, who ran for 157 yards and two touchdowns. "We played hard, but we gave up the big one. It happens." Before kickoff, Vidor named its field after Ivan Croak, a longtime school board trustee who died in August. His widow, Bettye, wept during the dedication ceremony as two sons, one granddaughter and three grandsons - including Brad Croak - looked on. "It was emotional for me, and I dedicated the game to him," Brad Croak said. "I wanted to win for him. But I know he's still proud." Indeed. In a District 22-4A game that had all the atmosphere of a playoff showdown, Central (5-2, 4-0) overcame several deficits to remain undefeated in league play. But Vidor (2-5, 1-3) gave the Jaguars all they wanted and then some. Trailing 21-17 at halftime, the Pirates played much like they had in the second quarter - effectively. They drove downfield in 10 plays, en route to the end zone, taking a 24-21 lead on Bo Pillsbury's second touchdown run of the night. Vidor added to its lead when Roman Franklin connected on his second field goal. The Jaguars battled back and eventually took the lead early in the fourth quarter, 28-27, after Morris Thomas reversed his field and scored on an 8-yard touchdown. When Horacio Cevallos added a field goal of his own, putting Central up by four points, the Pirates took over with 5:28 remaining. On a long, clock-eating drive, they converted a fourth-and-16 and moved to the Jaguars' 10-yard line with 1:12 left. That's when Croak, on his 26th and final carry of the night, shed a tackler, regained his balance and lunged past the pylon, giving the Pirates the lead and sending the home crowd into a frenzy. But Williams - who threw for 173 yards and ran for 71 more - led his team on a lightning-fast drive of his own, moving 61 yards in 51 seconds, finishing it off with his 12-yard scramble. "We decided to put it on his shoulders," Central coach Donald Stowers said. "He's hard to tackle. ... This was one of those ballgames were whoever had the ball last was going to win. This game had everything." Vidor officially unveils Croak Field Bettye Croak tried to hold it back. But Friday night, as Vidor officials renamed the playing surface after her late husband, she couldn't help but shed a few tears. Following through on a unanimous Sept. 25 vote, Vidor Independent School District named the playing surface of Pirate Stadium "Ivan Croak Field" after the longtime trustee who died in August. Croak, who graduated from Vidor High School in 1958, joined the board in 1977 and stayed there until 1991, when his job was transferred to Wharton. He returned to Vidor three years later and was re-elected to the board, upon which he served until his death. Bettye Croak - joined by two sons, three grandsons and one granddaughter - was at midfield on the north sideline of Pirate Stadium for the brief-but-emotional dedication ceremony that preceded Vidor's homecoming game Friday against Central. Volunteers pulled away a tarp that revealed "IVAN CROAK FIELD" in white letters on the grass. One of the Croaks' three grandsons, Brad Croak, put on a show after the ceremony, running for 157 yards and two touchdowns in a thriller. Central, however, rallied late for a 38-34 victory.
