It all started in the beginning of August. We were all standing behind the red line ht seperate football and life. Once we stepped over that line it was all about football. We got ready with our helmets and shoulder pads strapped them up and took a warm-up jog. Then we streched thoroughly for 30 minutes. We did this every day for a whole month until September. That's when the real action started. We started getting all the pads on and tacking and blocking which was so much fun. Our team ran standard drills and plays for about 15 days but that's when we had our first scrimmage. It was hard going against teams because we haven't for a long while. But we pulled through and won all of our games. Things were looking of going our way. WE practiced some more then finnaly the day we were waiting for was here out first seventh grade home game. Once we all ran through a cheer leading tunnel it was time to rumble!! Once again we cam out weaker than our teams full potential. Though we did come back and shutting them out. That happened every week for 7 weeks. I scored two touchdowns in those weeks which is amazing for me because i am a fullback and fullbacks don't score many touchdowns. We won every single came shutting everyone out until we came upon Arrow Head our rivals. They scored a passing touchdown on us which bummed us all out but we kept struggling and came out to win it 27-6. Which was awesome. When our next game came we crushed them 36-0. They were supposed to be the best team we played all season but it turned out they weren't even as good as Arrow Head. So that season went very well for us. An 8-0 season was enough to satisfy our teams hungriness for victory.
