Hunter football on the rebound
When Hunter takes on Murray tonight, the Wolverines will be back to familiar form.
''We're playing more of that smash-mouth style," said assistant coach Brandon Burt. We have 5 or 6 tailbacks who are really producing and our line is playing better."
It took a while for the Wolverines to make the adjustments and find a rhythm. Hunter lost three of its four four games and struggled to get things going on offense. But the Wolverines are back on track after two big wins over Cyprus (38-0) and Granger (56-20). Although Hunter knows the schedule will get much tougher from here -- after playing Murray, the Wolverines will play the top two teams in Region 2, Cottonwood and Skyline -- going on a two-game win streak is just what Hunter needed.
"We've made adjustments," Burt said. "And I think we've found our niche."
