Game 1 vs. The Cowboys

Game one was a great learning experience for the young Trojans. It was obvious early on, that the forty five minute game delay had taken its toll on the team. The team grew restless on the sideline and started out a little groggy. Everyone, including the coaches, were reacting in slow motion. We definitely received a wake up call from the Cowboys with a couple of early scores in the first half.

A good pep talk form Coach Carl and Coach Phillip seemed to ignite the team in the second half. The young Trojans showed great poise by never quitting and scoring in the second half just before the final seconds. The drive was started by some great blocking by the O-Line and a beautiful run by Quinn the tailback. Just moments later the drive was capped off by a long touchdown run by the Quarterback Ezekiel.

Yes, the Trojans have many issues to be addressed at practice but their never ending desire to score and a no-quitting-attitude sparked a winning flame that will continue to grow as the season progresses. At this point the parents and coaches are very pleased with the promise that these young players have displayed and realize that they will learn valuable lessons about football and life this season.
