Brenton's Third College Game Ottawa vs Baker

The weather was dryer, but definitely colder tonight as the Ottawa JV squad travelled to Baldwin City to take on the Baker Wildcats. They came up short, losing 18-13, but played a tough, physical game. This time, our boy came about 1/2 inch from blocking a punt. Once again, mom was jumping in the stands, going nuts, and missed the shot. Pictures are before and after shots. Alas. (Note: he is Number 29 in the away jerseys.)

This was Brenton's first road game (Shelby was impressed that the team travelled by coach bus - I think she was expecting a school bus). She suffered the cold and was the "fence." It should be noted that I left the "D" and the "fence" in the car until half-time and the Wildcats nevered scored once it was in the stands. Next time I will make sure it is in the stands at the start of the game!

Those curious about Brenton's new friend, Sam - I found out the following. Sam is one of 5 children. She graduated from West Franklin High School where she lettered three years in basketball and volleyball for the Falcons. She also earned four letters in softball. She earned all-league, all-area in basketball, volleyball and softball. She is in Brenton's Intro to Teaching class and she beat Brenton in bowling. Here they are goofing off...
