2nd and Proud

These kids had such team spirit. They spent the morning making posters to support their older brothers, but weren't allowed to bring them into the stadium so they did the next best thing by becoming their own walking poster. Fremont put up a good fight but wasn't able to overcome the nationally 4th ranked Bingham football team. We lost our starting quarterback a minute into the 2nd quarter and I was worried our boys would simply give up. They never gave up the fight.
Going into halftime we were down 27 - 0, talk about being deflated, but it must have only been the fans feeling the defeat. Our boys came out the second half of the game, rotating 4 different quarterbacks, and fought to the end. 
I am so proud of this team and how they turned the game around. We still lost 30 - 7, but won the second half 3 - 7. It was a win in my mind simply because they never gave up despite the odds against them. 
My nephews may be twins but couldn't be more different in appearance and personality. I thought these after the game shots were priceless.
