Scrimmage
 

Home Up


 

    On a rainy August 14th, Tyler's seventh grade football team traveled to Carman-Ainsworth Middle School to play in their first scrimmage of the season. Although the kids were told they would be getting equal playing time, it never quite works out that way. For Tyler that meant that he played one offensive session with the second string offense and no plays on defense. Although he was disappointed not to get much time, he remains upbeat about being on the team (and he realized that this was still a lot more time than some other players received).

    Just a reminder, look for #35 (and the only pair of all-red shoes on the team) on the field to see Tyler. I was unable to take many action shots, as Tyler was stationed on the offensive line on the opposite side of the field from our spot in the bleachers, thus remaining invisible to us during most of the plays.
