HS Football Week 1

It was a tough hard fought game on Friday night. We were so close to coming away with a big road win to start the season but never got the break we needed down the stretch. I was proud of how hard we played and how we picked each other up. Several players ended up in spots they did not expect and performed very well. This week will also be tough as Northland is coming to CCS but football teams make their biggest improvements between their first and second games so I am expecting to see a lot of progress this week. The best way to get better is to learn from your mistakes and that can be done at the 7AM film session on Monday morning in the field house. Even if your son did not play they can learn a great deal from watching the film.

Season Ticket Holder Tailgate Party
There will be a special tailgate party for the varsity game against Northland from 6:45 to 7:20. Season ticket holders will get a free meal in left field of the baseball diamond. There is still time to purchase season tickets at www.CypressChristian.org/Football/Tickets1.cfm. If you have already ordered your tickets they will be available for pickup at the gate for the Northland game on Friday night.
