#RockReport @Hamilton Southeastern

Your Rocks traveled to HSE last night and faced the Royals, falling 13-0. This marks the first loss of the year for the Shamrocks, and puts them at 2-1 in the conference.

Offensively, the Shamrocks were blanked for the first time in quite a while. They struggled to move the ball, generating only 159 yards of total offense. They fought hard, but ultimately could not find the answer to crack the Royal defense. The Rock D fared slightly better, yielding only 13 points, 6 of which came late in the game with the team pressing for a break. Still, they failed to generate a takeaway on a night when the offense really could have used the advantage. Shamrock Special Teams struggled as well, failing to convert a field goal, though the punting game was a consistent area of strength on the night. The game was a low scoring grinder, with the Royals coming up with big plays when needed and the Rocks unable to answer. The Rocks will look to rebound next week.

Special mention should be given to Zach Allen, Jacob Netral, and Leonnel Juarez. These Rocks made significant contributions in preparing the team for the Friday contest. They made sure to RISE to the occasion during the week, providing the best possible look for their fellow teammates.

Next Friday, your Rocks will come home to host the Brownsburg Bulldogs. Kickoff is scheduled for 7pm.
