Mitch had a great season.
Now I can't tell you all the details
because I didn't make it to every game,
but his team improved form last year
and he LOVES the game so what more
can a mother ask for...
except for no injuries.
So prepare for a long post
as I share a few highlight with you.
I love this photo for several reasons.The first being that Coach Shamo was one
of their coaches and father of the boy's face that you can see.
Well he died of a heart attack after their first game.
Very sad...so the team wore wristbands everygame honoring him.
It really ended bringing the team together.
I did not grow up playing football, but I have loved helping to coach Mitch's team for the past two years. He did a great job for us at running back this year - fun to watch and cheer as his father.
ReplyDeleteMitch, I loved the pictures. You look really good! I love hearing you talk about football. I can tell you really get it and love it. We will have to come for a game next year!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful pictures! Looks like he had an awesome season-- so sorry to hear about the father who passed away... oh that is sad...
ReplyDeleteGREAT PICTURES! I'm impressed. I remember Ben telling me that story. Very sad. What a great tribute though.
ReplyDeleteWe were lucky... the head coach's wife took pictures all season long and then made a great CD for everyone.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Mitch! You look like quite a player. How fun for you and your dad to do sports together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post. So sad to hear that the coach past away. It is always encouraging for me to see others left behind to continue on the journey and endure- but to endure it well with heads held high is even more inspiring. Great job Mitch and Coach Hutchins.
ReplyDeleteOh sad story! What a great experience for Mitchell in so many ways. Did not know he was such a football player! How fun!
ReplyDeleteMitch is such a stud! Wish we could be at his games with you guys.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!
