Dsquire,
Football has been my life for the last five years. We are the oldest school in the county and have been neglected while they have been building new modern schools all over the county. In 1964 a booster club had the field installed. The football plaers built the press box and concession stands. Since that time not much has been done. We have been an active booster club for the past five years and very vocal. We have improved our financial situation year over year by an average of 35%. Our principal was selected as principal of the year in the state this year and came in third in the nation.
we were 951st in Newsweek top 1300 in the nation last year.
We have won as many games so far this year as we did in the last four years put together.
A new coaching staff came in 2005 with a strategy to build a viable program. We started a pound ball league as a feeder program three years ago and brought 6th, 7th & 8th grades teams as a Junior league to feed the program. It is starting to payoff now.
The first year the coach taught me how the field should be lined off and I would get a couple of volunteers each week.
Enough rambling about me. Congratulations of the Championship.
Those are memories that stay with you for a life time. I think we are still a long way from one of those, but a winning season is not out of the question. We have graduated every senior every year and most of them play for Div 1 AA colleges now. I am still rambling about me ain't I.
