Hard Pill to Swallow...
Saturday our Bingham Black "Wrecking Crew" had a tough fight on their hands, West Jordan was ready and waiting for us. They came right out and scored on our Defense in their opening possession...
It caught our attention and we came back with fight and determination. We went right down the field and scored with lots of awesome runs by Morgan and D. Mpungi. D. Scored and got our extra point, leaving it tied!! Our Defense seemed to take back the advantage and held them on downs, giving us back the ball. We moved the ball down the field again and scored on a perfect pass in the endzone from Gibby to a wide open Chepkwurui. Our "D" held them off just before half leaving the score 14-7 Bingham.
The third quarter was a battle of Defenses!! Chepkwurui, D. Mpungi and Morgan came up with huge drive killing interceptions. Although our offense was struggling, Gibson was able to complete passes to Peterson for a large gain, Mpungi and lots of Quarterback keepers to gain more yards. Unfortunately, we were never able to score any more touchdowns.
Our "D" worked hard to hold them, but West Jordan scored with just under 7 minutes left to go in the game, and getting the 2 point conversion, pushing it in behind their bohemian giant of a center...taking the lead at 15-14!! Our offense was struggling, missing two of our Big X Men, we had given all we could. Gibson tried to make magic but we came up short!!
Losses are hard...first losses are even harder...but speaking from experience...going undefeated in regular season is good...but...winning a championship would be AWESOME!! So I think will take our loss now...learn from it, improve on it, become better and work harder!!!
And to West Jordan...unfortunately...I think you just woke a sleeping giant...
We will look forward to meeting you again in the Playoffs and next time we will be ready!!!
But for today, get ready for Olympus!! Let's practice hard, take our intensity level up a notch and see what happens...this is where CHAMPIONS are made!!!!
LETS GO BINGHAM BLACK!!!
1st Division Game...1st Division Victory!!!
We beat the Beetdiggers 34 - 0!!!
We started out our Division play with a win over Jordan!!
Again, our offense was awesome, moving the ball and scoring at will!!
Again, our Defense was stellar...allowing NO POINTS!!
Our Touchdown bucket, was the proud receipient of lots of cash from all our Touchdowns!!
Our "Wrecking Crew" seem to be making their mark on our Division!!
Nice Job Bingham!!! Keep it UP!!!
Taylorsville Drubbing!!!
Taylorsville seemed to be no contest for our Bingham Boys!!! We were able to score at will!!! Our offense seemed to be able to move the ball wherever and whenever they wanted. Scores from D. Mpungi, Morgan, Chepkwurui, D... We beat the Taylorsville Warriors 39 - 0!!!
Our Defense again held another team SCORELESS and looked awesome not allowing much yardage!! Taylorsville offense ran squatted and hiding behind their line until they popped out on either side, can't say that their trickery worked, usually our awesome "D" sniffed them out and most times they didn't get beyond the line of scrimmage. Our "D" had awesome coverage in the secondary on those occasions when they would put the ball in the air...not much luck there either!!!
It was a great win, and it was fun to see some different players run and touch the ball!! Wilkins, Mena, and Campbell all got chances to run the ball!! Butterfield caught a pass and then ran with the ball for 10 or so yards and was tackled about 10 yards shy of the endzone!!! Nice work guys!!!
Way to go BIngHam BlaCK!!!
Bingham OVER Alta Gray...25-13
Our Offense started off with a bang...first offensive play of the game...handoff to Peterson who turned it into a 40 yard run to score on our fist offensive play!! D. Mpungi ran back a 78 Yard Kick Return for Touchdown!!! J. Mpungi also scored too!!
Our Defense was scored on for the first time all year!! They also scored on special teams, returning a Kickoff for a score!! That was just enough to get the boys attention and they came back out fired up and went down the field and scored...putting Alta's hopes of victory in the GUTTER!! But it was a good well fought game!!
It was awesome to see our players face some adversity, but then turn that adversity into a plus and build off of it!! They came out fired up and wanting to win!!
Way to go Boys!!!
