It was Senior Night, a night where they honor the athletes who are seniors and whose days of high school athletics, especially football, are winding down. It was really nice to see all the parents out on the field to take a moment with their young man or young woman who has been participating in athletics, or band, or drill team.
And then, it was time for football!
Coppell was hosting the Flower Mound Jaguars and it was quite a battle. The Jaguars jumped out to an early lead and by halftime things weren't looking to well for the Cowboys. But after halftime, and I'm sure a spirited lecture by the Coach, the Cowboys came out fighting. For a while it looked as though the Cowboys would overcome the deficit and although they narrowed the margin, they couldn't pull out the win tonight. They still have an opportunity for the post season and I hope that if they go on, that I will get a chance to join Tom and follow their progress.
All in all it was a lot of fun and seeing the good sportsmanship that both teams displayed was really something. Best of luck to both teams as they near the end of their schedules!
