PLEASANT GROVE VIKING FOOTBALL

After many years of soccer history in this family, Dylan decided to play football this year. As many of you know, they were on a winning streak at the beginning of the season, taking the first 4 games to victory! Their 5th game was close and they lost by only 1 point. During the next week's practice, Dylan dislocated his elbow and we spent the night in the emergency room. Luckily, nothing was broken and he is just in a splint for a few weeks, but that meant no practice or games. And the Vikings lost their last 2 games. (we like to think if Big D had been in the game, it would have helped) He is their best defensive lineman, after all! Regardless, the game today was exciting! It went into OT and they ended up losing, but not by any fault of their own. The refs made really shitty calls all game and the kids suffered at their stupidity.

They have one game left to play in regular season. If they don't win, they won't make it to the playoffs. Even if they win, they have to win by a lot in order to make up the point difference and make it into the playoffs. Dylan has one more week in ths splint, so he won't be able to play in this last game. If the Vikings can pull it off, there is a week between that game and the playoffs and Dylan should be cleared to play.

Keep your fingers crossed!

I am really going to try to keep up on this blog more often. At least, more than once every 4 months! Love you all and miss you tons! Keep your eyes out for the football videos to come your way!
