Football 2024

The season started off with a few scrimmages and pre-district games. The beginning of the year always starts out shaky as everyone figures out the little details and works through the nerves, but they found a groove by game 3. We struggled with keeping a QB, but were resourceful and managed to win more than we lost. We ended the regular season 9-1 and District Champs again! Now on to Playoffs!!

Kelby was one of the captains for our first home game. He spoke at the pep rally and also did the coin toss before the game. 

Troy was one of the captains for the Iola game. It must have pumped him up because he had a great defensive game that night! 

Troy tried a new position against Crawford…the kicker. He even had a shoe boy that came out to switch and tie his shoe. He only tried the position for two games before they found another guy to do the kicking. 

This year the senior pep rally consisted of all the seniors making a crown and wearing it throughout the day and then “passing the torch” to the 5th grade class, who will be entering high school next year. They each handed them a special item from high school and let them wear it and then they put it in the time capsule. 

The boys’ cheering section was always full from week to week with so many different family members and friends coming to watch them! 

Cross Country

Teague decided to take a break from football this year and is doing cross country again. I’m not sure he really loves cross country, but it will give him a fall sport while he waits for powerlifting to start in the winter.  He gave great effort at every meet and even ran sick in district so the team would make it to regionals. Regionals was in Huntsville and was their last stop of the season. They were able to go down a day early and stay in a hotel and go out to eat..not a bad way to end the season! 

 

Off to Regionals

 

Rangers Suite

We spent the day in Arlington watching the Rangers in the Hall of Fame Suite. The tickets included brunch and great seats. We ate way too much, but the game was amazing with several home runs and a walk off run to win the game! 

Senior football pictures

This year the moms decided to hire a guy to come out and take the boys’ pictures. They all turned out so good and the boys had a lot of fun coming up with different poses and being silly with their friends! 

Year #12

This year I will be stepping into a new role: Dyslexia Specialist. I have moved rooms and will be serving both the elementary and the junior high campuses. I am excited to see what this year holds and hopefully have more time and a little less stress so I can enjoy all the things the boys have going in their senior year! 

2 seniors and a sophomore

Senior Sunrise breakfast

The year is already taking off with a breakfast for the seniors. It’s was super early, so not many came out and even Troy was riding in on two wheels late.  It was fun for the ones that did show up and hopefully they enjoyed the food and the bonding.
