Prodigy 106, United 73

The United's unconventional draft day strategy seemed to work to perfection – assuming of course that the ultimate goal was lopsided losses. There certainly were positives in the team's 33-point loss to the Progidy: good production (18 points) from their only true starting RB, Thomas Jones, and a strong performance from QB Chad Pennington who put up 20. But their 1st and 2nd round picks, the 10th and 11th overall picks in the draft, went for just 8 (Harrison) and 6 (Holt) respectively. And that as they say is not good. RB Quentin Griffin led the way for Pop Warner with a huge day: 3 TDs (nearly 4) and 26 points. Despite the win, the day was not without its disappointments for the Prodigy. Top pick Jamal Lewis managed just 3 points against the lowly Browns and the teams top WR, Steve Smith, was lost to a broken fibula. After the injury, the Pop Warner coaching staff wasted no time in having the wide receiver put down. Pop Warner takes on the Wildcats of W. Beverly this week while the United try to take the happy out of the fun ball.
