The Pender Football Team saw their season come to an end on Thursday as the Pendragons lost 82-3 at Johnson-Brock in the first round of the playoffs.
The Eagles led 34-0 after one and outscored Pender 26-3 in the 2nd quarter to take a 60-3 lead into the locker room.
Johnson-Brock shutout the Pendragons 16-0 in the 3rd quarter to lead 76-3 after three.
The Eagles blanked Pender 6-0 in the 4th quarter to make up the final score.
The defense gave up 386 yards of total offense, including 207 on the ground.
Not the type of game the Pendragons were hoping for in the playoffs I'm sure.
Pender ends the season at 4-5.
It was a slow start to the season for the Pendragons, but Pender won 3 out of their last 4 regular season games to make the playoffs.
The Pendragons says goodbye to Julius Kasiske, Jaydon Jump, Jakob Cady, Sam Mailoux, and Gabriel Perez.
These five seniors will be missed without a doubt, but Pender has to be excited about their future.
Returners for next year include Dylan Vogt, Kaiden Mrsny, Caleb Trimble, Austin Roth, Jaxon Mrsny, Jaxon Maise, Eric Hathaway, Larry McManigal, and Lucas Timm.
The Pendragons were young this year, but appear to be loaded with talent heading into next season.
Pender has to be excited and optimist about their future, and has to feel good about things heading into next year.
The Pendragons have to wake up every day this offseason ready to get to work.
The kids have to work hard in the weightroom and work on individual skills and agility drills over the course of the summer, and maybe even more.
I know a lot of these kids play winter and spring sports, but this team has a great chance to be good at Football next year.
Pender has a very good baseball program, and I know doing that in the summer kind of takes away from football some, but if Pender can devote proper time to Football it could make a big difference heading into next fall.
The Pendrgaons have to get bigger, faster, and stronger, and must take it upon themselves to improve and get better.
I look for Pender to have a nice offseason, and gear up and get ready for big things in 2018.
The Pendragons have to set big goals and have high aspirations for great things next season.
The future is what Pender makes of it.
The sky is the limit for these kids, but they have to put the time and work hard to have another good season next year.
