Game 3
 

Home Up


 

    Tara told me that they had some more physical practices this week, and it showed in tonight's game. Each team is apparently guaranteed one game at night under the lights, and the 22nd of September was our teams night to shine. We started out strong, with a long run for a touchdown and an 8-0 lead. Tyler did a better job tonight - you can tell that the practices are paying off. We wound up taking a 22-6 lead, but gave up a score and an extra point for a 22-14 lead (in this age bracket the extra point kick is worth 2 points and the 2-point try is only worth 1 point - go figure!). Things got pretty sloppy at the end, with both teams trading turnovers. On the final play of the game Grand Blanc broke free on a long run, but Holly made the game saving tackle near the 1-yard line. This resulted in our first win of the year, a 22-14 final score. Unfortunately for Tyler, he got stepped on by a teammate just above the ankle and had to sit out some of the 4th quarter. He is OK, and won't miss any more time because of it. Another reminder - Tyler is number 53 this year.
