{ Blazers 35 Wolves 13 } --

We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting to the end
We are the champions, we are the champions
No time for LOSERS, cause

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, OF THE WORLD!!!
-Queen








Ok, maybe not the world, but at least the TCYFL MJV division. Today was championship Sunday for Ayden's football league. The Blazers were battling the Black Hills Wolves. We played and beat the wolves 21-7 back in week 3.

Things didn't start out all that great. The wolves scored quickly on their opening drive to go up 6-0. The Blazers, though showed their true heart and scored 35 unanswered points. The wolves scored with 7 seconds left in the game to make the final score 35-13. Ayden and the rest of the team were pretty excited to be champions. 7-1 is a great finish (too bad they lost by 1-point in OT in week 4).

All their hard work for the past 3 months paid off. Ayden has been on cloud 9 for the day so far. This season was successful for more than just a championship. Ayden learned how to play a game he had never played before, learned responsibility and discipline, didn't quit (or shy away from getting tackeled or giving a hit), learned how to be a TEAM and most of all had FUN.

CONGRATS AYDEN AND THE REST OF THE TIMBERLINE BLAZERS GREEN MJV TEAM!!! You all deserve it!!!
