Tennessee Day 2

Day 2 started ruff for Alex 7AM he's sick and vomiting every few minutes in the room....I jump up out of bed and address his issues.
Eventually KK and Terri get up but things don't get better for Alex and he ends up not suiting up for the game...
However he does sit n the sideline with the team
and attempts to be a trooper
Tuff day for all of us
but that's football
imitating life
Its not always easy




We win our game 3 22-0 beating the defending champions who beat us last year..we really out played them by far
it was a sweet vengeance game.
I must admit!

Then we returned to our RV to prepare for our last and final championship game and...............

the celebration continued....



Time for the championship game
Alex's stomach virus is not any better so he sits out again
The coaches understood
but I must admit
I did not understand and was not happy with him electing not to get dressed for his final game




We take the field for the 4th time in 2 days after winning
22-0
12-6
and
24-0



but this outcome is different

we get beat by a really good team with a great running back
28-12
if its any consolation we are the only team to have scored on this team the entire tournament
The team that beat us is Ben Davis from Indianapolis

Our coach then gets some alone time with our guys and tells them how much he has appreciated working with them for the past 3 years
tears are flying all over the place
yep even grampa sheds tears

all Team 4 parents and fans were proud and sadden because at this time we all understood
Its over for good
The saga has come to an end!


The boys got 2nd place badges and a 2nd place trophy




We got 2nd place in our divsion out of 100's nof teams across the USA

we head home
back to Cinti


nuff said!
