Week 4 HS/MS Football Schedule

It was certainly an exciting game on Friday night and from what I hear there was another good one on Saturday night as the HS program picked up a couple of wins. Sickness and injury provided opportunities and the story of Gideon played out. Our offensive line was tremendous and our defensive forced turnovers when we needed them most including what has to be a school record 3 interceptions by Taylor Brown. You can read more about the game, find out who the Blue Jersey Warriors are, and view all the stats on the website.

The MS had two tough games last week. I have had several questions about the Lutheran North MS team. They draw players from several schools and certainly had some big boys. I have already asked the district president about looking into this issue for next season. However, I do feel that we need to be ready to face any opponent and the next two weeks will be bigger schools as well. The last 3 weeks of the season should be great games against schools that are the same size as us.

MS/HS JV Game Schedules
A game against Northland has been added for the MS on 10/13 at Northland at 5PM. I would like to move the HS JV game on the 10/1 to 10/2 so that game may change. Please check the football website for the latest schedules.

Wednesday Speaker
If you would like to speak to the team please let me know.

Website
The media page has links to a lot of HS pictures from the last several games. We will have pictures from Faith West soon. If any MS parents have been taking pictures and want to provide them to me or set up a site like SmugMug we can get them added to the website.

Dallas Trip (HS Parents Only)
Remember that you have to book your own room. If you can leave when the bus leaves (10AM) please let us know. We would like to have a few players travel in cars to free up seats on the bus. If you have questions please contact Helen Mitchell.

Football Pictures
Football pictures will begin at 3:45 on Wednesday, 9/23 on the football field. Both middle school and high school players will be wearing their BLUE jerseys. They need to wear a complete and clean uniform including cleats. Both teams will practice once pictures are done. Practices will still end at 5:30. There are no make ups for team pictures.

The Flu
Illness continues to be an issue. Please keep your head coach informed as much as possible if your son has to miss practice.

In Christ,

Coach Spenn
