Football Finally Finished

Oh my! We've been doing the football gig since July 26th. Willie has had 3 or more practices a week since then. Actually, until the games began it was five practices a week plus sometimes on Saturday. It's a huge family commitment -- but well worth it. Just when we thought the season was finished last Saturday, it wasn't because the Hunter Wolverines made the playoffs! The playoff game was this morning, Hunter vs. Bingham. It was a battle and we came up 20 points short.

Willie has had an awesome season -- he improved in every area of the game, especially in speed. He is running faster, hitting faster, and getting a jump on the game in so many ways. He finally got to see some significant defense time after many years of offense only. I loved every minute of every game even the losses.

Until next year -- and that will be high school -- serious business!
