The High School Football Season is past its halfway point and Taylorville High School has only lost one game on the season. Jake Linder, Play by Play commentator for Miller Media Group and the Taylorville Tornadoes has high expectations for the team where he hopes they peak toward the end of the regular season and beginning of the post season to contend for a state championship.

Linder said he's most impressed with the Tornadoes ability to adapt to situations and roll with the punches. He was shown first hand how the team was able to do it after their first and second string quarterback went down with an injury and are now using the team's defensive leader as their leader on offense.

The Taylorville Tornadoes take on the Charleston High School Trojans at home this Friday night with Linder on the call, with Michael Pickett alongside with color. Linder appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
