This past Saturday the Jacks played in Virginia, MN and came away with a 12 to 0 victory.
The defense had an outstanding day limiting Mesabi Range to around 10 yards of total offense.
The offense moved the ball well at times and were hurt by some big penalties that killed a couple of nice drives.
This is homecoming week for the Jacks. Kickoff is set for 12 noon on Saturday and hope to see you at the game. We play another team with a very good defense, so we must work hard to eliminate those drive killing things that have been getting us.
Have a great week and go Jacks.

On Saturday the Jacks traveled to Grand Rapids, MN to take on Itasca CC. The Jacks came out with a 17 to 13 victory in a very hard fought game. The Jacks got on the board first when the defense came up big with a fumble recovery for a touchdown. The offense had a nice drive going and stalled out on a bad snap and had to settle for a field goal to go up 10 to 0. Itasca came right back on a quick drive and scored right before half to make it 10 to 7.
The second half was much like the first half until Itasca got behind our secondary for a touchdown pass that put them ahead 13 to 10. With about 10 minutes to go in the game the Jacks got in the end zone to put us up 17 to 13. That was all the scoring and the final ended up being 17 to 13.
The Jacks had their poorest outing of the year I believe. We had way to many turnovers, bad snaps, blown assignments, blown coverages, and penalty yards. Hopefully we can clean up some of those things this week.
Next week we travel to Virginia, MN for a 1 PM kickoff.
Go Jacks and have a great week.

Good morning Jack fans,
The Jacks played at home this weekend and lost to Central Lakes 45 to 31. The game was not as close as the final score indicates. The Jacks were not able to get anything going on offense and when we did we always did something to hurt us. The defense had trouble shutting down their offense also.
The first half was a good battle back and forth, but the third quarter was a bad one for the Jacks.
Central Lakes got it going on offense and the Jacks couldn't answer back falling behind 38 to 3 at one point. The Jacks were able to get some offense going in the fourth quarter, but the game was already decided.
We have a lot of work to do to try and fix a few things. The Jacks are on the road this week to Grand Rapids, Minnesota.
Hope you all have a great week.
Go Jacks!

Good Morning Jack Fans,
The Jacks traveled to Fergus Falls this past Saturday and came away with a hard fought 24 to 20 victory. The Jacks got on the board first with a field goal after failing to get in the end zone from a couple yards away. Fergus came back with a score and the Jacks fell behind 7 to 3. Once the Jacks got back on top they stayed there the rest of the game.
The offense really had trouble in the red zone as we were down there 4 times and only got 3 points out of it, so that is really disappointing. We need to get better in that area of the field. Overall on offense we did some good things, but the bad things stick out when you don't finish drives. Something to work on this week that is for sure.
The defense had a solid day other than a few big pass plays that we gave up. One we had two guys run into each other, I thought for sure we would intercept it, but it got threw to the receiver and the others we just didn't get good position. Overall I thought the defense played a good game, but we still have things that we need to do better there also.
I thought our special teams were good except our punt return is not were we want it yet. Our kicker was solid both in kick offs, punts, and place kicking.
Thanks for checking on the Jacks.
We play at home next Saturday at noon.
