Riverton vs. East

Difficulties in life are intended to make us better, not bitter. --- Dan Reeves

Word from Coach:

"There is always one thing more important in football than winning and losing! That is the relationships built between players, coaching staff, and parents! During the past ten weeks we have grown from being strangers who were brought together by the love of a game. Now, something bigger has happened, we have become a TEAM! In life, there is nothing greater than knowing that you have someone to lean on when times get tough! Right now, times are tough. However, there are no adversities that this group of kids cannot overcome!! WE ARE A TEAM! Nothing is greater than that!! Lets stand together and rise above! All winning streaks start at #1, and this week is our #1!" -- Jed Thomas

Winning isn't everything, but wanting to win is.

Wolf Pack 2 - 0 and going STRONG!

It was an intense game Saturday as our line faced one of the toughest lines we may face all year. Once again our line came out on top!

With only one touchdown and no extra point at half time, it was still anyone's game. Towards the end of the third quarter, our Wolf Pack scored their 2nd TD with the extra point. Right into the 4th quarter, Kearns scored their 1st TD of the game as well as the extra point. With only 1 more TD and extra point needed, the game was far from over for Kearns.

We put our onside kick return team on the field late in the game and recovered the kick return, only to have the Ref's take it away. With good field position for Kearns to score and win the game, our Defense stepped up and sealed the win with an interception! Congrats on a 13 - 7 win!



*Touch Down Highlights*

1st TD - TD Pass Turner Thomas to Nick Scott
Extra Point - No Extra Point

2nd TD - Anthony Perschon

The "PLAYER OF THE GAME" award goes to Jaden Mayne for his interception, Cade Butterfield for offensive and defensive play, and Turner Thomas for great passes and Quarterback play. Congrats on a 13 - 7 win!

Let's do it again against Alta and practice hard this week, it pays off!
