We\u2019re not trying to score in the first play. We know that we\u2019re not going to be able to stop them every single play, but we\u2019re going to work on things to just build on little successes,\u201d said Coach Rod, \u201cAnd if we get them in third and long situations, we feel like that\u2019s going to be a big win for us. If we can keep them from getting first downs or just a short field for that matter. If they can get second and long instead of second and two, I think we have an opportunity to do some of the things that we put in this week that could help us be successful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">A win for the Westerners would be their first in district play.
