Defense Wins Games!

Team Captains - Nathan, Andy & Joey

There's an old saying in football that says, "Defense wins games"... I have to agree after today's game.  My team went out on the field today ready to avenge last weeks loss and they went out with their war faces on.  We had several sacks, an interception and a couple of blocked passes. 

The game went back and forth with no scores after three quarters and finally in the fourth quarter we scored and stopped the Thunderbolts from running or throwing the ball.  This team is younger and smaller than my other teams in the past but still they seem to listen and work just as well, if not better. 

I am really enjoying this season and we're only three games into it.  Next week we will go out there and work on BLOCKING... This seems to be the Achilles heel of every team. 

My favorite part of the game had to be when we ran a trick play and it worked to perfection. That made me happy! Also, my son barreled his way for two big short yard first downs!

Man, this is what coaching is all about.
