Nighthawks End-of-Season


Oct. 6. Nighthawks v. Poston Butte Broncos. WIN 21-7.

This was a GREAT game! Jacob made several "braggable" plays. The players each wore one pink sock at each game in October for Breast Cancer Awareness month (it's a great cause, but I giggle a bit thinking the boys are a little too young to appreciate it).


They are always good sports, but "good game" is so much easier to say when you win!


You can see Jacob peeling out of the line,


And then in the center of the cheerleader tunnel!


Oct. 13th. Nighthawks v. Jaguars. LOSS 39-0.

(This was a very devastating game. They all told Jacob that if he had been there it wouldn't have been so ugly. We were blissfully having a great time on Fall Break in Utah.)

Oct. 20th. Nighthawks v. Gilbert Dawgs. WIN 20-19.

This was a close one! Put us in the playoffs.



I love this kid.



Oct. 27th. PLAYOFF GAME. Nighthawks v. Chandler Bears. LOSS 7-27.



Nov. 3rd. CONSOLATION GAME. Nighthawks v. Southeast Valley Thunder. LOSS 0-20.

In the end, they only played one playoff game, but were so proud of what they had accomplished this season. I am so grateful to Coach Boxton and his amazing coaching staff who taught respect and hard work, and who demanded excellence in school and at home to earn the right to step on the field. Jacob thrived under their leadership.
