First Football Game of the Season

Fall is here when the first football game comes up. The weather was perfect tonight for watching Adam's new school play their first game.

They won 26-0 but it was one of the sloppiest first games I've seen in a while. His team has lots of talent if they can get it all going in the same direction at the same time. Adam had a sack and several tackles as a defensive end. The picture above is a decent tackle on a kickoff return.

Head is on the correct side, head is not completely down, wrapped up nicely around the waste but he dropped to his knees just a little early... maybe next time.

I do have to make an excuse for him. Leestown had a couple of offensive tackles that were twice his size, so I can understand taking a rest on his knees during the tackle.

Tates Creek JV wins the 5 Star Classic

It was a long day which contained two battles with a very tough and tradition rich Ryle High School JV team, but the JV Lady Commodores walked away with the championship in the third game.

Playing seven matches in one day made the tournament tough from both a physical and mental fatigue standpoint. We were very proud of Carmen and all her friends. They played well together as a team and endured to the end.
