Give me a "V-dot the'i'-curl the 'c'-t-o-r-y! VICTORY!










As the team arrived for their team meal following school Monday afternoon, there was a sense of excited anticipation for their final game against their toughest competitor. The boys took the field and on the opening drive scored a TD! However, both teams released several turnovers throughout the game causing a little anxiety, but Genoa was able to stay on top. Two of Alexander's friends scored their first touchdowns of the season! Adding to the excitement of the final game was the question--would the 7th grade team be the first team EVER to have an undefeated season at Genoa? After beginning practice the start of August and practicing 2 hours every afternoon, winning their scrimmage and each game thereafter, the 7th grade football team IS the first team to have an undefeated season!!
Alexander, we are SO proud of your football accomplishments this fall! You started the season having never played tackle football. We struggled the first time we had to add the pads to your practice pants--remember? Thankfully that chore was perfected throughout the season and the initial 1/2 hour was diminished to meer minutes! It's been a great experience and we look forward to next fall! Congratulations to you and your team on a WONDERFUL season!
