ABD JR BLUE vs Mansfield Bengals, Week 3

WE WON!!! 16-0
Well the boys played great this week & finally it paid off with a long awaited win. Zoe was back out with us this week & we were happy to have her back on our sideline. The Defense smothered everything they tried to do. Both touchdowns were scored by Bryce, one on Offence & one was an interception ran back. We got a little bit of passing started this week hopefully Coach Phil & the boys can add to that next week, good catch Stefan. I could point to every body on my Defense & say great job for the shut out. Tanner keep going after those fumbles I thought you were going to get it. Next up is Mansfield Pumas @ Ferguson JH.

ABD JR BLUE vs Riverside Eagles, Week 2

Well I really take a lose like this one preaty hard. We beat the Eagles up & down the field & if you were to look at the stats you would of thought we had won. The boys played great. We had the ball om Offence most of the 1st half & when they did get the ball we would sack them for a loss or force a fumble. This continuned in the 2nd half except for 2 plays. A substatution change that went wrong, my bad. Week two was a step in the right direction & this week we have Mansfield Bengals @ Mansfield. The game starts at 1:00PM. We need everybody there at noon for warm ups. Don't forget to email copies of the pictures you take of JR BLUE for the scrap book to Susi suse.f.1028@sbcglobal.net.

ABD Jr Blue vs Blue Raider Raiders, Week 1

Well it started a little slower then we hoped for but by the second half the boys were looking like their old selves on Defense. A few opening day mistakes cost us big but I was proud of the guys for listening to what the coaches had to say at half time the holding them to just one first down for the whole 2nd half. Game one you hope to get a little easier opponent so you can fight through the learning curve. Our luck just had us going against an origination that always fields tough teams. No worries that's why we had a non-conference game this week, it doesn't count. As the defensive coordinator the guys on D drove me crazy early then made me proud late. That's the way coaching is. Don't worry guys we'll get them next time. Next up @ Riverside Eagles.

Weigh-In

Well weigh-in day was hectic. Of course Jr. Blue and the other ABD teams were ready to go on time but due to delays of earlier groups we were over an hour behind. Thanks parents & players at least we did what we were supposed to. There weren't any surprises at weigh-in. We finally got Blayke & Bryce out with the rest of the team & we're glad to have them. Our first game is this coming 1:00PM Saturday, 9/9/06 at Ferguson Jr High against Blue Raider Raiders.
