The is the first time in 52 years that the Pirates have had a 0 record. This league is so large that we cant sit back and pat ourselves on the back, said head football coach Sonny Sudbury. The next three games are going to give us an indication of how good we really are. The Pirates will meet undefeated Murray on Friday at Murray High School at 7 p.m. 6-- Ip 6-- ft -- : ?! o Between the defensive and offensive lines, the team is playing all but four seniors with a new philosophy of running the ball as much as they pass it. Right now it is easy to say that its the senior leadership that is winning the games out there, said Sudbury, a Cyprus graduate who left Bingham High School to coach the Pirates this season. They have been playing together for many years.

We have gone out and improved on our game each week. Sudbury said he came into the season expecting each player to pull their own weight and work together as a team, not as individuals That means everyone is treated the same, Sudbury said. Weve had to have some attitude adjustments. The kids had to come in here and know who was the boss and for everyone to be on the same page. That change in leadership has given the team a clearer focus on their game. Our sour point of the program is that these kids have gone through three or four offenses over the last few years, Sudbury said. They had been really confused as to what kind of game they were going to play. Weve taken care of that with the pass and run offense. In the match-u- p against Murray, Sudbury said the team has three goals in mind: Improve from last week, have fun, and win. If we do the first two, then winning will be a direct result of it, Sudbury said. Our kids are stepping up to the challenges. In the last two weeks, Cyrpus players Brian Hammond and quarterback Casey Miller have been recognized by the media and sportwriters as two of the top players in the conference as Hammond was named an outstanding performer after the Bountiful game and Miller was named player of the week after the Pirates 13-- 7 win over East. Miller has completed 70 percent of his passes and thrown for 13 touchdown this season. Against East Miller threw 109 yards and and two touchdowns.

Were only as good as our leadership and right now everyone is looking up to the seniors, Sudbury said. But they all know that everyone on the team is going to be treated fairly, from the stars on the senior line to the bench warmers. Weather has also played a factor in showing what the Pirates can really do. Four of the six games we have played have been in the rain. Its hard to know what kind of passing game we are really capable of if the football is always wet, Sudbury said. Because of the weather our defense has really had to step up.
