The Muncie Southside High School Rebel Varsity football team ended its season with a second round sectional loss to the Delta Eagles, 6-28.
The Rebels started strong recovering a fumble on Delta’s first drive. But the tale of the game was a list of turnovers and penalties at crucial times that didn’t allow the Rebels to get any momentum.
At 8-3, this was one of the best seasons in Rebel history – certainly one of the best in recent memory. We say “Thank You” to the players for giving us excitement and pride throughout the year.
The Muncie Southside High School Rebel Varsity football team notched its sixth straight victory by defeating the Marion Giants 35 – 14 in a first round Class 4A sectional game.
After scoring an early touchdown and going up 8 – 0, the Giants were outscored 35 – 6 by the Rebels. With a slim lead of 21 – 8 at the half, the Rebels traded touchdowns and had a 28 – 14 lead when Coty Reynolds snagged an interception late in the game and ran it back for the final score of the game.
The Rebels travel a short distance to Delta Friday, October 29, for the sectional semi-finals. After losing to Delta 6 – 7 in last year’s “Mud Bowl” sectional contest and 14 – 23 in this year’s regular season game, the Rebels are primed to avenge the losses and make it to the sectional finals for the third time in the last four years.
GO REBELS GO!!
The Muncie Southside High School Rebel Varsity Football team put an exclamation point on a fantastic (and possibly historic) season by posting a 34 – 7 win over South Dearborn.
The Rebels traveled two hours to play the Knights and avenged a close loss at home last year. The win puts the Rebels at 7 – 2 and marks the fourth winning season in a row for Coach Mike Paul’s team in his 33rd season.
The team will now gear up for a home sectional contest against Marion. The Giants have won six of their last seven – the only loss in that stretch being a one-point loss in overtime. The Rebels appear to be hitting on all cylinders and will need to be on the top of their game on Friday.
The Muncie Community Schools Board of School Trustees, at their regular meeting on October 12, 2010, voted to accept one of the recommendations of a Blue Ribbon Task Force – that the Board retain two comprehensive high schools; however, the Board would revisit the one vs. two high school issue if ever the district’s total 9-12 grade enrollment fell below 1,700 (current enrollment of the combined high schools is 1,946 students).
This puts to rest, at least for this year, the anxiousness created by not knowing the possible outcome. While there will still be a lot of changes expected due to budgetary constraints, plans can be made for the 2011-2012 school year.
The Muncie Southside High School Rebel Varsity Football Team gave its fans their money’s worth on Senior Night when they hosted the Greenville (Ohio) Green Waves.
With the Rebels trailing 28 – 21, Jackie Thomas and crew marched in for a touchdown with less then 30 seconds remaining. Luckily, the Green Waves hadn’t scouted Coach Paul well enough to know that he doesn’t play for a tie. The Rebels lined up for the tieing extra point kick but pulled off the fake when Nick Dyer took the snap, rolled right and threw a pass that was tipped by a Greenville player into the waiting hands of a Rebel receiver for the win. A one-point win that had the fans on the edge of their seat all night long.
For the second time this season, the Muncie Southside High School Rebel Varsity team has a shutout on their resume. The 60 – 0 drubbing of the Connersville Spartans on Friday came close to equaling their largest shutout of 69 – 0 from 2007, against the same team. The Rebels continue to improve and prepare for the Sectional tournament that is just a few weeks away.
After a short delay for a minor accident on Madison, the Homecoming Parade for the Muncie Southside High School Rebels kicked off on Friday, September 24, 2010. Following are photos of the various entries.
Grand Marshall - W. C. Edwards
A week after blanking the Jay County Patriots (34 – 0), the Muncie Southside High School Rebels Varsity Football team ran over Indianapolis Arlington, 83 – 42. The game started out with the Rebels gaining a 2 – 0 advantage on an early safety and that was all she wrote as the Rebels racked up yardage on the ground and in the air. The improvement is encouraging as we inch closer to tournament time.
Although the Muncie Southside High School Rebels lost to Delta this Friday, the score shows that the team is certainly as good, if not better, then last year. Losing 14 – 23, the Rebels were in the game most of the night. They need to work on committing fewer turnovers and not allowing their emotions to create needless penalties. Next week’s game is at Jay County, a team that is 1-3 and has been outscored 173 to 39. This should be a W but the players will still have to show up to play.
