What is up everybody. I hope you all had a great summer as I did, but summer is over now and you know that means it's football time. Training camp was tough as usual but this year EVERYBODY made it through and no one wussed out. I think that speaks a lot for our freshmen class. Our first game was at number two ranked Whitewater. It was my first game ever playing outside linebacker, since i switched over from running back to the "Dark Side" last spring. We played them tough at the beginning of the game, but their passing  got the best of us. This last week was a game we were all looking forward to, our  non-conference rival Carthage. We haven't beaten them since i have been here, losing each game by less than a touchdown. It was a tough physical game in some crappy weather. On a screen play, I was chasing the receiver inside, when a big Carthage Offensive lineman rolled into my knee. I was out for the rest of the game, and I am not going to lie, it pisses me off, but there is nothing i can do about it. Carthage once again beat us by a touchdown in the last minute of the game.  Our team is there, we are big, fast, and strong, now we just need to mentally play at our potential and no one will stop us. We play UW- Oshkosh this week. They are a good team, and it should be a good game. Ill keep you posted.
