MUD FEST

Yes, football is played in ANY kind of weather. Here I was saying the other day, we had went all season without a rainy, muddy game. (The only other kinda rainy game we played in Corvallis on turf). Well, Lebanon does not have a turf field, especially at 7-Oaks. Two plays into the game and Drake was mud head to toe. It was a really good game to watch, our defense was awesome. Drake had some great hits, wish he would have been hitting like that all season!! He even recovered a fumble, great hustle! Although he was hit pretty hard on one play and was very SLOW getting up, he was hit by his own player (It was a great hit thought, just needed to be one of their players)!! His ribs are a little sore today :D

Offensively, we just couldn't get it done. Drake threw one pass, but it was incomplete. We would have great field position, but just could not get it in. We did have one across, but there was a flag and it was called back.

Needless to say, at the end of regulation, we were tied, in overtime the other team scored and on our possession on our 3rd down there was a fumble, they recovered, game over. I felt so bad for our boys, they played really hard.

Of course this was the one game I took NO pictures, didn't really want my camera in the rain. Yes, it rained, it poured, it was soggy and muddy!!!!

We have one more game left, next Saturday at Truax (next to Reser), no Reser stadium for us, but the game is at 7:00 P.M. and that is the FINAL game of the season. If anyone wants to come watch there is an admission fee of $5:00 per person
