Different Weekend, Same Results

Well another weekend of football has played out with much similarity to previous weeks. Zach's team won a fun one, 39-26 over the Sycamore Aviators. Zach told us he played "horrible", but he did make a tackle while he was playing defensive end. They also called one play for him to run the ball, but the QB and Zach had trouble with the exchange and it ended up with a fumble to the other team.

Cole's team lost a 7-0 squeaker to the Lakota Tomahawks. It was 0-0 into the 4th quarter and we thought we were going to overtime. The Tigers had a 4th and 4 at the Tomahawk 45 (the farthest penetration of the game) with about 5 minutes to go, but didn't make it. Then Lakota marched down the field, converted a 4th and 2 at the 4 yard line, and then punched the next one over the goal line. In addition to the loss, it was very disappointing that Cole didn't get into the game at all. Because of the close game, Coach Woehler kept the first string guys in the whole time, and about 5 of Cole's teammates didn't get in. The Coach claimed he'd make it up to those kids next game, so we'll see how that turns out.
