AUDIO Tyrrell's Knights Ready For St. Ed's

The Hoban Knights are ready for a big challenge coming up in Week 2, but coming off a 42-14 win over Canton McKinley down at Lowell Klinefelter Field, they feel pretty good about themselves.

Head Coach Tim Tyrrell, the head coach of the Knights joined the Sam Bourquin Show Tuesday to talk about their team and what they need to do to clean up some mistakes as they prepare for Lakewood St. Edward's.

"I think our kids were ready for McKinley," Tyrrell said. "We made too many mental mistakes with the offsides and things."

 

Defending Division I State Champions St. Edwards comes up next for Hoban and he knows Tom Lombardo's team won't beat themselves.

"They play as a team," Coach Tyrrell said. "They're constantly running to the football on defense and they take what the defense gives them on offense."

 Tyrrell says that his line is going to have to fire off the ball and running back Todd Sibley and quarterback Danny Clark  will have to bring their A game as well.

The Hoban Knights have had a bit of a layoff before tournament play, but they are looking to make some moves and make a deep run.

Head coach of the Archbishop Hoban boys' squad T.K. Griffith joined the Sam Bourquin Show to talk about his team needing to be on the same page heading into the second season.

"Right now we're just trying to get everybody together, get that coheisiveness,  that basketball need to be successful, and hopefully come back  with that same chemistry we used to get a couple of nice wins earlier in the year," he said.
