Headin' to State!

For the second year in a row, the Central Catholic Saints are heading to Memorial Stadium for the 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!!! Woo Hoo!!! The big day is next Friday (the day after Thanksgiving). What an awesome season . . . and what a truly special experience for each of the boys on the team. They played an excellent game yesterday and pulled off a 51-28 win. Alex got some playing time toward the end of the game, so that was an added bonus. (Most of the sophomores on the team don't play too much in the playoffs.) The team was HOT yesterday, despite the FREEZING cold temperatures and windy conditions. LOL. Let's hope they play equally as well on Friday. It almost seems surreal that the season is just a week from being over. I won't know what to do when Alex doesn't come dragging in every night at 6:30 - 7:00ish! Seriously, it will be nice to have him 'back' again. It seems like the entire first semester is devoted to football, with the craziness beginning even before school starts in August. Oh, but as hectic as it can be, I do love it that he is part of the team. What great memories he's making, what a ride, what a season!

GO SAINTS!!!
