Win some, lose some

The boys each started their regular season schedules in football this weekend.

Zach's team got off to a good start on Saturday, as they thumped the Sharonville Eagles 31-20. They had a good lead for most of the game, which was good for the kids as a lot of the 2nd teamers played a lot. It was also tough on Zach, because the kid who usually swaps into his spot on the offensive line was not at the game. So, I think Zach played every snap of the 2nd half (offense and defense). He made his first real tackle while playing defensive end, which was a nice one for a five yard loss. He also went in for a series as a half back. And on the first play of that series, they called the one play in which he gets the handoff, but on that play the QB fumbled the ball and they lost possession.


Cole's team wasn't quite as lucky on Sunday. They fell in a heartbreaker to the Kings Knights 7-6. They had the lead up until about 1:30 left in the game, as Kings marched down the field on their last possession and scored to tie it at 6-6, and then pushed in the extra point to take the lead. The Tigers got about half way to the goal in their last drive, but ran out of clock. Cole got to play some D-line, nose guard and tackle. He likes to play the those spots even though he's usually the smallest guy on the line.

I'll follow up with some pics also.
