A day to remember our ancestors, to remember that it was they who fought for this land so we could live on it and pass it on to our children. Don’t put down your brothers and sisters because when you do you’re making fun of everything our ancestors wanted us to have. We should be proud that we are here today and able to get a good education. Education is something our ancestors would’ve been proud to have. Remember, education is the ladder to success.

At these games many friendships were renewed and many more were begun. Although the overall outcome of the season was a 4-6-0 record, a certain pride devel- oped in our players, a pride that put some of them on the All-District Team.
