I got sidetracked and forgot to add some more game photos from the State Championship. I better do it today because on Tuesday I start watching basketball!
The day was all about Cardinals.
Newman Catholic are the Fighting Cardinals, Luck is the Cardinals, and the school where we played, Chippewa Falls, also the Cardinals.
Here are some shots from the day, Gage is #6.
Here come the Cardinals!
It didn't take long before Levi score the first of his 5 touchdowns. We all breathed a little easier to be in the lead so quickly.
Which one would it be?
The team and the fans were starting to feel it now.
Happy coaches, happy team.
Lots of photos were taken, fans were not allowed on the field, but it is more about the emotion than the capture of every face on the team.

The welcome home caravan was impressive.
All the emergency vehicles that could be rounded up met the bus just out of town.
With sirens and horns blowing, the bus was escorted down mainstreet up Park Avenue to the school.
At the school, fans gathered to welcome home their champions!
The trophy is presented to the fans by the coaches who helped this team bring it home.
A few words were said, and there was applause and much smiling!
Again, the Seniors hold the hardware high.
A great ending to a fun Championship season.
Well done men!
