Championship Game

Dylan


Dallas

Today was Dylan & Dallas's Championship game. They were playing against the PG Vikings. They were so excited to play. We knew that it was going to be a good game. It started off pretty well and we scored first. 7 - 0

After the first half, they scored a touchdown, but missed their extra point. So the score was 7-6. This is exactly what had happened in the season game that we played against them. Well in the last quarter, the Vikings scored another touchdown, putting the score at 13-7. The Vikings won.


It was such a sad site to see all these 4th grade boys in tears. It brought tears to my eyes. They had worked so hard for the last 3 months having gone undefeated all season....having already beat this same team...to now lose the championship. I stood there watching the awards ceremony as all the boys went up to get their medal. Most all the boys were crying. Dylan & Dallas's coaches are pretty awesome. When they were giving the medals to PG, our coaches were telling the boys to clap and cheer for their team because they had done well and earned it. What great examples their coaches are to those boys.

After the game, the coaches told them how proud they were of them and they loved them. It was such a sad but sweet moment. It was hard for me not to start crying as I was hugging my crying boys telling them how great they had played. They learned so much. I am very proud of them with how hard they worked this year.
