ESPN2 cameras will beam unbeatens across the country in 7A No. 1 vs. 6A No. 2 game.
Sep. 27, 2023, 8:15 a.m.
To a couple of the standout performers set for the showdown, it’s a pretty big deal, but – you know, one-game-at-a-time and all. Walters, a 6-foot-2, 265-pound senior who is starting at right guard, missed last season’s 17-14 win over the Cougars with a shoulder injury. “I remember the whole week was especially hyped up. They were coaching us up in practice. They were a top team in 6A, it’s ‘us against them.’ It was a lot more electric atmosphere during that game. It was two great teams going against each other.
“We pride ourselves that defense wins ballgames and defense wins championships,” Barber said. “It’s nothing that we take lightly. With the success we had last year [Clay-Chalkville allowed 8.3 points a game in an 8-2 season], our goal this year was to be better than we were. We had high standards last year and everybody looked at that and thought, ‘Man, it’s going to be hard to beat that.’ But, this year, we’re beating it by a mile.
“ Coach Freeman says every year is a new creature with a new feature,” Walters said. “Last year’s team is gone. Those seniors are gone and we have to find our own thing and reset. Walters said his game is focused on that hard work. “I like to be myself. I’m very hard-working. There are not many days that I come in and don’t give my best effort. I know our offense as well as any offensive lineman could. I don’t know all the pass routes, but I know some of them. I like to play smart and play physical to drive guys off the line and help my teammates where I can.”
