Devin's first game of the season. Weather was hot but nice - at least we didn't get poured on. This was a controversial game because they played our Varsity Section 3 and JV team against Manheim Township's Varsity Section 1 team - a good 15 to 20 lbs heavier on average than our team and at least a half an inch taller.

Our boys played very well - they held their own against bigger, stronger players. We lost - the score was 26 to 6. Colin May scored the only touchdown but we had many other good plays. Devin got to play a lot. They put him on the Defensive line as a Defensive End - a new position for him. He played quite well. I thought he would get tossed around by the bigger players but he didn't. He held his own!

Next week our Varsity Section 3 and JV each have their own games so Devin will probably play with the JV. A lot of parent's keep asking why he is on the JV (white) team. Can't answer that one but they were glad to see him playing a lot today and I was there to watch. I had a lot of fun.
