The Sheboygan County Rebels avenged last season's playoff loss to the Washington County Untouchables with a victory Sunday afternoon. They (well, I) say that you gotta look good to play good and with the new uniforms, the Rebels did both.
The Rebels jumped out to a 18-0 lead by the end of the first quarter thanks to lights out defensive play by the dark side of the ball. Brad Dobson linked up with the best tight end in the league, Marcus Ninneman, with a beautiful touch pass over the top of the defense for the first score. Jamil Moore had the biggest play with a pick six though. As he took the rock to the house, everyone could sense a little Bon Jovi (Jamil's favorite band) in the air; or maybe it was coming from the vocal chords of Mr. Moore.
To their credit, the Untouchables managed to claw back into the game thanks to several big plays. At halftime, the score read 18-14 in the Rebels' favor. David Benton gave an emotional halftime speech to the team and the Rebels refocused and rededicated themselves to finishing the game strong.
In the second half, it was all Rebels. Jarred Querio (Mr. Q) played lights out registering 3 1/2 sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. The defense didn't allow a single point. The Rebel's Dark Side had 6 takeaways over the course of the game. A touchdown and field goal were added by the Rebel offense thanks to good field position. In the end, the scoreboard read 28-14. The Rebels faced adversity and overcame it to defeat one of last season's top teams.
