WEEK 1

Outstanding night for football, cool enough to play without sweating to
death.  The only downside was the cloud of mosquitoes that seemed to
wait for us at each huddle.  16 (Not all at the same time) of your Blue
& Gold Warriors fought it out, in a see-saw battle, resulting in a 4 to
4 tie (as we ran out of players).  Bud Selig would have been proud.

Stat-Leaders:  Ken Vosniak with 2 TD Receptions, and 1 INT, and John Zur
with 1 TD Pass, 1 TD Reception and 1 INT.

Play-of-the-Day:  The names might not be right, so feel free to correct
me. From about 10 yards out Andrew Hussli(or was it Dan Rhode) fires a
pass to whomever which get tipped up by Paul Edwards to somehow get
pulled down by Ken Vosniak in the end zone.  Ok, so we are starting out
kind of tame this year.  It was either that or my surprise climbing of
the construction fence, balancing on the stack of shifting scaffolds to
retrieve the ball that Gary Sima bounced into the construction zone near
the back of the end north zone.

The adventures of Chris Mullens' Gray Notre Dame sweatshirt: Where
abouts unknown, The FBI has been called.  (That would be FBI - Foot Ball
Investigations.)

WEEK 2 (Cancelled - Rain)

WEEK 3

Sorry I'm so late, I stayed up north an extra day to get farther on my
chimney stone work.

Another outstanding night for football as your Blue & Gold Warriors
pounded the grid iron.  Blue seemed to have the edge most of the night,
but still only ended up with a 4 to 3 lead.  Our first drive by
shouting, and about 8 fans showed up

Stat-Leader:  There was a tie between Chris Freer and Wayne Schott each
with exactly the same stat record for the game, with 2 Passing TDs,
1 Reception TD and an INT.  

Play-of-the-Day:  Chris Mullens fired a nice on target bullet pass down
field, crossing back to defend it Bill Ray Jr. stabbed a hand directly
in its path tipping back a few yards to a second receiver Ryan August,
who took it a full run another 10 yards.  An honorable mention goes to
the 45 yard lay-out catch by Dave Dubberstein, that one was a long time
coming for Dave.

Injury Status: Dwyer was in and out with a hamstring problem.

WEEK 4

The field was kind of squishy and a stiff cross wind seemed to have
grounded the squadrons of mosquitoes. Dave Dubberstein was right about
the rain stopping, however the rain returned the late in 4th quarter.
Blue got off to a good start and just kept Gold chasing all night, not
unlike the Monday night Packer-Bear game.  Blue's zone defense picked up
4 times as many INTs as Gold's defense which tended toward man to man.
The cross winds were also a factor, but I figure that to be even for
both sides.  Final score was Blue 6 and Gold 3.

Fred Coxey showed up too late for anything but helping to drink a few
beers at Mickey's - no stats for that...

Stat-Leaders:  Ryan August was the leader in stats with 1 Pass TD and 2
Rec TD's and 2 interceptions.  He seemed to be everywhere that the ball
was, al night.
 
Play-of-the-Day: Dan Rhode's 3 bounce 40 yard TD catch on a deep slant
pattern.  Great concentration. Or maybe it was rookie, Osi Aniakudo's 30
yard interception for a TD of Tom Sweinberg's Hit of the day listed
below.  I can't really decide.

Hit of the Day: Goes to Tom Sweinberg who was hit both high and low,
while attempting a catch on a sharp slant pattern, in heavy traffic.
And yes, he hung on to the ball!  Robert Brooks would have been proud.
