Oh Captain, My Captain

Caz was honorary captain for the DHS football game last Friday night.  He was really excited about it.  It was a battle of league undefeateds, Duxbury versus Hingham.  Winner goes to the playoffs.  If Duxbury loses, their 34 game win streak ends.  Their bid for a 3-peat ends.  It's homecoming.  Under the lights.  The crowd was huge.  He and a plus one got to go out with the Duxbury captains for the coin toss. What more could a 13 year old boy ask for?
     The game was a real thriller.  Duxbury was not playing their best.  Hingham took it to them.  The game ended in regulation as a tie.  OT.  4 Plays from the 10 yard line for both teams.  It was deja vu for me personally. For the crowd, it was nail biting time.  Zac got to be on the sideline for the entire game if he chose to be.  I did notice he was gone for a long stretch.  Apparently, according to his mother, he bought himself a pizza from the concession stand.  And was walking around eating being trailed by half a dozen teenage girls.  It's good to be the king......
