Quoting Coach Beckett

on Valley Head

"They certainly showed improvement this season. Seamingly gotten better every game. That's a sign of a hungry well-coached team. I'm very impressed by inside linebacker Trever Manley and quarterback Benjamin Kirby. The offensive line is very physical and gets better each week. Omar Boyzo, Jacob Hodges, Adam Miller and Christian Muir are all very good. Dallas and Joshua Gregory are very good running the ball."



"This is a county and region rivalry. So, I'm sure Valley Head will bring their 'A-Game'."



on Collinsville's keys to the game

"We will have to play well up front. Our offensive line has worked very hard late and has graded out well. We have to do a good job of keeping Valley Head's offense off the field."



on last week's 42-6 win over Gaylesville

"I thought we played a very well. Coach Edwards had a good plan and we stopped a good back. We were able to set a good pace offensively that seemed to keep them off-balenced. Our effort was at a really good level."
