JV Mites - Week Four

Well, the Defense is still progressing nicely. The Iron Curtain recorded another shut out this past weekend. The visiting team was clearly over matched, as we were up 26-0 by halftime. We created a third string QB on fly. At this point, we need to keep the kids from getting big heads. Managing the game was tough, as we had to keep the big kids (about 6) off the field all of the second half. We know why that has to be, but explaining it to 8 year olds that just want to play can be tough. Be as a good show of character, they took it in stride.

I was very proud of Caz. Not because he scored a TD. But because he finally let go of his cautious nature and ran as fast as he could. Hit kicked it into that extra gear I always new he had. And I told him, the run was nice. Scoring the TD was icing. The fact that he showed his potential and went full out was priceless.
