While the Trojan defense has had a banner season, the West offense has improved steadily having scor ed 1 28 points in the last three games (42.7 points per game average). Meanwhile, North Brunswick has struggled sincc its 26-0 season opening win over Topsail. The Scorpions have been shut out in three of lour WC games this sea son. Their only points in league play came in a 49-6 loss to South Brunswick on Oct. 4. "North Brunswick has faced a lot of adversity this year," said West Brunswick head coach Marshall Scay. "They have had several key people hurt and there's no question they have struggled this season." "However, we arc preparing for them and working hard to correct mistakes made last week against West Columbus. We want to be a better team this week than we have been in previous weeks." Scay is again stressing to his team this week the importance of getting an early lead. "We stressed this last week in preparing for West Columbus and it worked very good. We started off well but then our offense got a little off-track in the second quarter." The Trojans were quick out the gate in the second half scoring 35 points in the third quarter in perhaps the most productive offensive peri od in school history. Helping to spark the big third quarter was Trojan fullback Aaron Butler who has bccomc more im portant to the West Brunswick of fense in rcccnt .weeks. Scay feels the senior's continuing rise is im portant to the team's success. Butler helped West Brunswick break from a 14-6 at halfume against West Columbus by scoring a pair of second-hall touchdowns on runs of 21 and 19 yards. "He scored both touchdowns with people on his back. Aaron re sponded well last week and he will continue to be a key player on this team added Seay. Both Butler and tailback Aldwin Lance rushed for over KM) yards each against West Columbus and will provide the Trojans with anoth er balanced running attack Friday opposite the Scorpions. The improved Trojan special teams also played a vital role in the victory over the Vikings and will al so be counted on to equally produc tive against the Scorps. "Our kicking game paid high div idends last week," said Scay. "We stole the ball on kickolfs in the first and third quarters and that really helped blow the game open. The Trojans turned die West Columbus miscues into two touch downs to spark the 49- 1 3 romp. Despite his team's perfect record, Seay will still wants the Trojan of fense to become more consistent. "We had scoring opportunities in first half against West Columbus but we weren't able to get the ball in the end /one." Leading 14-0, the Ta>jans used a first-half pass interception to gain gixxl field position but die Vikings kept West Brunswick from scoring.
