Our 6th grade Orange team worked hard in practice all week, and our conditioning showed today. We never gave up, even when we were down 14-6, with only 1 minute to play in the game. Our kids played hard, and managed a long TD run and 2 point conversion to finish in a 14-14 tie.
I know ties don't sound exciting, but our kids loved that they could come back at the end. The coaches were really proud of the effort, and to me, it shows we are making progress game to game. For me, it's about getting better every week.
Our mental discipline is something we will work on this week in practice. We also told the kids it is hard conditioning from here on out, so we can play 4 quarters, like we did today.
On another note, the program had a significant step forward today with the 5th grade program's first ever victory, against Slinger 6-0. Congratulations, Coach Precord!
And. 8th grade Orange is now 4-0.
Not a bad day for the program. Go, Hartford Football!
