MHS Football 08


Ready or not, the 2008 high school football season is upon us! MHS played it's first game of the season this past Friday night, traveling to Lyons. They came away with a hard fought 21-6 victory. They came out flat at the start of the game, and actually trailed 0-6 at halftime, but they turned it up in the second half and played like we're used to seeing them play.
Brian is number 76 (my old football jersey number), plays right guard, does the kickoffs and kicks the extra points. They have a pretty seasoned team, so we (I) have high hopes for them. They are picked to finish 5th out of 12 teams in the always tough MCAA league. If they play well and not make the silly mistakes, they have a chance to finish much higher than that.
Next up is perennial powerhouse Collegiate. They are the bane of the area, as they are a private 4A school in Wichita. I'm not saying they recruit, but.....
It will take a perfect game for the Warriors to win, but if they play smart football, they can give Collegiate a run for their money.
GO WARRIORS!!

Ah yes, football season. Nothing better than Friday night football. Well,..... maybe elk hunting, or camping in the mountains, or fishing for trout in a mountain stream, (or taking a bath in a mountain stream - brrrr), or eating burritos in a wall tent with no ventilation. Wait, maybe football is more fun than the burrito thing.

Go warriors!!!
