throw the football. They are
different from (the other
spread teams) because they
run the ball more. They are
about 50-50 run-pass. Even
out of the spread they are
going to run it.”
The speed of M.L. King is
also evident on defense.
“What we have to do is
block them and stay on
them,” said Johnson. “They
do a good job of running
to the football. They stunt
a lot, cause a lot of bad
plays. They take a lot of
defensive chances. We have
to make sure our schemes
are good, pick up the stunts
and make a play or two here
and there.”
So the speed is there, but
how about size? Johnson
said the Lions are huge on
the offensive line. The ros
ter lists one player at 355
pounds, another at 300
pounds and two more at 295
pounds. All of them are in
the junior class.
“It’s tough to get in there,
like a wall,” said Johnson.
The coach said the defen
sive front doesn’t tip the
scales over, but relies on
speed.
Houston County couldn't
have asked for more of a
dominating offensive perfor
mance in the first round,
going for more than 430
yards on the ground at
Newnan.
“In our case, it was both
(the backs and the offen
sive line),” said Johnson.
HEADS
From page iB
since then, Camden County
has given up just 13 points.
In fact, no one has scored on
the Wildcats in the month
of November. Camden’s
third shutout in a row was
in last week’s first round
action, a 36-0 win against
Redan at Chris Gilman
Stadium in Kingsland.
“They are very good,” said
Warner Robins head coach
Bryan Way. “They are big,
athletic and well-coached.”
Under head coach Jim
Herron, Camden County
runs a wing-T offense and
has the kind of speed that will
make the Demons defense
cover the entire field.
That stingy Wildcat
defense is set up in a man
ner that Way said is unlike
any his offense has seen so
far. He said it’s a 3-5 align
ment that also relies on its
speed.
With only three players on
the defensive line of scrim
mage, it would appear to be a
defense that Warner Robins’
rushing-oriented attack can
exploit. Eight players in the
backfield usually means one
is expecting a lot of pass
ing. With Camden’s speed,
however, Way said where the
players are won’t be a factor
in Warner Robins’ favor.
“We will try to, but no one
we’ve seen has been able to
exploit it a whole lot,” he
said. “They have real good
technique and they get to
the ball in a hurry.”
On the Camden County
offensive side, Way said the
“All three, Eric (O’Neal), DJ
(Dodson) and Martez (King),
did a great job of reading
the blocks and running. Our
offensive line has played
really well since the middle
of the season. They feel like
they can block a lot of people
and make good things hap
pen.
“We felt like we could move
the ball against Newnan, but
didn’t think we would move
it that well. They are not as
bad as we made them look
on defense. We were able
to keep the ball away from
them.”
Newnan still did some
damage as far as yardage
goes on the Houston defense,
especially in the passing
game. For the Bear defend
ers, it was more about spe
cific moments like the two
fumble recoveries in the first
quarter, a fourth-quarter
sack for Princeton Dean and
a fourth-down pass knocked
down by Dexter Holman.
“A team like that will
throw it enough that even
tually they will catch some,”
said Johnson. “They had a
couple of routes they had not
shown that ended up being
pretty good. That hurt us,
but I thought our coaches
did a good job adjusting at
the end.”
There is concern at
Houston about the kick
ing game with two missed
PAT tries Friday. Houston
was able to make up for
them with two successful
two-point conversions, but
Johnson knows that’s a
lower percentage play than
the placekick.
fullback is the main ball car
rier through the trap and
belly plays. He said the
Wildcats will also show sev
eral unbalanced formations
and run the misdirection.
It’s an offense he compared
to Lowndes High, adding
that they will run a play
like the sweep one way, then
come back with the sweep
in a totally different align
ment.
“It will be a tough game,”
said Way. “We need to play
well in order to give us a
chance. We have played a
tough schedule. They are
not a whole lot tougher
than anyone we’ve already
played.”
That schedule included
playing at both Lowndes and
Valdosta. The Demons came
away victorious on both
occasions. Lowndes County,
like Camden, borders the
state of Florida.
This week, however, is a
holiday week for Houston
County schools. So on
Friday, Warner Robins will
have plenty of time to get
things together for the long
road trip.
Way said they will even
stop somewhere halfway and
stretch their legs out.
The state first round was
a good one for Region 1-
AAAAA, a clean 4-0 sweep
in fact.
Way said it was a league
where there wasn’t much
difference between the top
and the bottom. Despite the
7-4 record, the Demons have
the experience as a program
in playoff situations to make
this second-round game a
marquee matchup.

“I think we’re going to run
the ball more. I have some big
girls, but they can all run the
floor. When we get a rebound,
it doesn’t matter who has it in
her hands, she can push it up
the floor and run our point. I
think that’s what’s going to
surprise some people. We’re
going to get it up the floor
and hopefully get a scoring
opportunity real quick.”
A big challenger to the
region championship is a
newcomer, but no stranger
to Houston County. Warner
Robins entered 1-AAAAA
this year from Class AAAA
with two recent Division I
signees. The Demonettes join
Lowndes, Tift County and
Colquitt County as the con
tenders for just four state
tournament slots.
“The region, it seems, just
gets stronger each year,” said
Baxley. “Bringing Warner
Robins in adds to that.”
