Oh my! What a game! This week's football game was cursed from the beginning -- Parker lost in the sophomore class election; Marie Sharapova lost at the US Open; and . . . Hunter could not get their offense or defense going. The kids appeared to me to have flat energy -- basically they didn't have the excitement and momentum like other weeks. The game was filled with penalties, interceptions, and lost opportunities. Had we not thrown interceptions and capitalized on a few Davis penalities the outcome may have been different. I really think Davis is overrated -- not a top 5 team in the state. Our kids actually handled them pretty well but not without some injuries -- knees, ankles, tail bones, pride, and more . . . .
This week Hunter has a bye. That means a time to heal injuries and take time to sort through the offense and the defense to put a good game plan together for the next game -- Friday, September 21 @ West High.
On a positive note, the weather was absolutly beautiful -- perfect football game watching weather. Willie had a strong cheering section and the studentbody showed up dressed for a "blackout" game. It was fun!
