So we’re still playing next week. Another easy win by 25 points (apparently that’s the spread against this team). We beat them 25-0 in week 7 and beat them 31-6 this morning.
Our round 2 game is next Saturday morning and should be interesting as we face the team that beat us in week 6. Should be a good rematch. Our boys know what to expect and redemption is always a motivator. Plus, this time we meet at a neutral site rather than us driving the hour and a half to their field – which doesn’t seem like much, but when you have to arrive at 9am, that means leaving by 7:30 which means getting up even earlier. Our boys end up being in a car on the road before they even have to be out of bed. Doesn’t seem like much, but I know the team feels it in that situation.
At any rate, we’re the only Beavercreek team in our age group (of three) to advance – the other two got bumped in round one – so it’d be nice to represent a little longer. If we get past next Saturday’s game we’re guaranteed a game against a team with a losing record on Sunday (not a guaranteed win, but you gotta feel good about that).
So yeah, Round 2 next Saturday morning and it’s gonna be a tough one.
