Track Blocking the Wide Zone Run Concept:Teaching combos on the zone scheme can get expensive, particularly for tempo offenses that prioritize speed to manipulate defenses. Because of this philosophy, and some inexperience up front, prep powerhouse Trinity High School (KY) shifted its teaching into track blocking the wide zone concept, a staple in the Shamrocks offensive menu for years. Blocking the wide zone this way has eliminated negative plays, propelling the Shamrocks to a 15-0 season and a number one ranking in the state. In an exclusive clinic report for X&O Labs, offensive coordinator Andrew Coverdale reveals how he's meshed the tracking principle with this sugar huddle tempo. X&O Labs is releasing this report next Tuesday to its 60,000 readers via email. To ensure you receive this report, click here and enter your email address.
