Mesa went into the 2nd quarter with possession on the Dawgs 19 and within scoring range. Joseph Romero [23] rushed for 8 yards across two plays putting the Soldiers at 4th and 2 from the 11 (penalties pushed the Soldiers back some)  ; Matthew Schoonmaker [7] brought the ball to the 1 yard line on a keeper for the Soldiers 1st down.

Isaiah Wood made a trip to the hospital on Tuesday night. An injury during practice had him dazed with neck and head pain. After spending a few hours at the hospital the doctors cleared him and sent him home.

Isaiah visited his family doctor today to make sure all was well, the family doctor said he should not have contact for a week. Being the Soldier that he is, Isaiah will be at practice on Thursday and will be at our game on Saturday for support.

We are all very glad to hear that Isaiah is doing well and look forward to his return next week.

I was told that the boys came out fighting and came to win. Scoring fairly quickly in the first quarter and kept it going for the rest of the game. The offense put up 20 points while the defense kept the SEV Destroyers from ever reaching the Read the rest of this entry »
