Football Week 2 - Edgewood

It's Friday and time for another game! Team meal with the D line...

and our weekly selfie.

Family dinner at Panera.

Local support!

We've never played Edgewood before, as far as I know, but they agreed to play us Week 2 when Withrow didn't re-sign a contract with us. It's about 40 minutes away, kinda in the middle of nowhere. Once again Noah did warmups with the O line.

I got my pregame hug (though the video is on lockdown because Heidi had not told me that I had dirt all over my butt and it's clearly seen in the video) and Noah's sideline prayer.

The game started and we were handling Edgewood pretty easily and yet Noah stayed on the sideline.

And then Vince and Noah got ready to be go in on the next defensive series and we got so excited...and then there was a fumble and Edgewood had the ball on about the 15 and Coach Grothjan called Noah and Vince back off the field and sent in the first string despite the fact that we were up several scores. I was so upset and I knew Noah was too.

A few minutes later one of our O linemen, Mason, went down and did not get back up for several minutes. In went Noah!

Enjoying a wonderful evening of football.

Talking to Mason who hurt his knee while Jackson ties his shoe, ha ha.

Noah ended up playing the rest of the game and did really well with a lot of help from Wade and Jackson.

We got the win!! It's so nice to start the season off so well. We already have two wins, the same amount of wins they got in the whole season last year.

We chatted with Coach Ullery after the game and he had great things to say about Noah's efforts. Obviously there's a lot to work on but he's holding his own.

He was all smiles after the game.
