We improved to 2-1 with a solid win over Vemilion on Thursday. We started in the hole when our QB fumbled on a sack and they returned for 94yrds, but our boys responded with 22 unanswered points. Ty had a couple decent runs, and got in on a lot of tackles, 2 of them showing that he is learning to flip the switch. Nothing better right now than seeing the ah-ha moment the first time a player realizes how fun it is to launch/collide at 100% and the feelings that come with it

Last night was our first home game for varsity, and field dedication wirh the Cleveland Browns and Cross Country Mortgage. While the weather didnt cooperate, it was a nice pregame tailgate, team introductions for all sports and a great tribute to Max and his legacy. There was a medical emergency on the visitors sideline, and 1/2 way through max showed up with a double rainbow and quite the painted sky.......chills.

2-2, half way thru the season. Last Thursday they lost to Huron, the fear of God in their eyes at half time trying to stop their big tailback. They went in 0-8 at half, ended 0-30🫤 Films don't lie, and there were a lot of ah-ha moments yesterday lol. Today a couple more stepped up in tackling drills, hopefully it carries thru for Thursday.

Ty had some good runs, struggled blocking, and was scared to tackle. He shows glimpses of aggression, but as a safety he is still not flying up and helping the run game, which makes up 90% of the game at this age. His punts are working out well.
