Kyler 1st (and only) HS Scrimmage

 Kyler wasn't thrilled with football this year but was doing a great job.  He made it through two-a-days and was getting stronger and getting his speed back.  He played cornerback all through junior high but they decided to switch him to defensive end right before the first scrimmage.  He played great and did his job very effectively.  Everything was looking great until he called me from the field house to tell me he dislocated his kneecap again. NOOOOOOOOO!!  That was not a phone call I wanted to get, especially for a second time.  He was so incredibly disappointed.  Not only did he feel great physically, the worst part of football was over, and he was going to be able to play some games.  To make matters worse, the amazing orthopedic surgeon that was in Childress, literally moved the week before.  


I didn't want this football season to go unnoticed because even though it ended so quickly, he played GREAT, and Keyan and Kelli were there to support him which made him feel good too.  We were all sad to see his season end so quickly and tragically, but we're thankful for the videos and success he did have.




Seeing as this was the only time he touched the ball on offense, he did great. He finished the season with a 100% completion percentage!


He almost got there in time!


Got a great block!


Kept the ball inside


Stuck with it and made the tackle


Even though Kyler wasn't the one running the ball, it waw so good to see him run the field. Watch for those red shoes!!
