The End of the (High School) Football Season ...



... but what a way to end the season! Hunter's team played yesterday in the Edward Jones Dome (same place where the St. Louis Rams play!) for the 2010 MSHSAA Show Me Bowl! They played a team that was 1) last year's State Champs, 2) undefeated this season and 3) was ranked #23 in the nation by USA Today - pretty intimidating stats!

The Lee's Summit Titans beat Webster Groves 44-21! It was a great game, but (thankfully!) not a real nail biter. I am willing to bet my blood pressure this football season has jumped at least 10 points! I had no idea I could get so excited about football! This year has been a very exciting one!

The Titans won State in 2007 and had shirts created stating: STATE CHAMPS IN 2007; DO IT AGAIN IN 2010! ... and that they did!

In preparation for The Big Game, the team got to practice on the Kansas City Chief's practice field and play on NFL turf! What a great memory for the kids! ... and a great way to ring in Hunter's 17th birthday!
