Senior Night

Parents of Seniors:

Please make sure to be at the game no later than 6:30 to line up for the introduction of Senior players. You are to be at the center gate between the bleachers at 6:30 as the introductions will begin at 6:40.

Prior to the game we invite you to be on the field with us during our warm up. Please feel free to bring a camera and snap pictures as this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for you to be on the field with your son as he plays his last regular season game at HCS.

After you are introduced, we invite all of you to walk with us to the locker room for our pregame prayer. After we pray the players will go back to the field and you can return to your seat to enjoy the game.

This is a special night and we look forward to seeing all of you with us tomorrow night. If, for some reason, you cannot make this event, please let me know so that I can communicate with the Public Address Announcer to remove your name from the introductions.

Go Big Blue,

Coach Qualls

Cathedral Game Cancelled

All,

Our schedule for this next week has been changed. In the past few weeks it has become increasing difficult to have both a JV and Freshman team. This week we are cancelling the Freshman game with Cathedral. As I am sure you could understand, this was a difficult decision for our coaching staff as we want to play as many games as possible. However, in the best interest of our program at this time we felt this was the best decision.

We will be combining our JV and Freshman team to play the Varsity Home School Lions. This game will be a tremendous challenge for our team so we encourage you to come out and support the Eagles.

We are evaluating the remainder of the season as well to determine the best avenue for the remainder of the games. Thank you for your continued support of our football program.

Fall Break Practice/Game

All,

As we gear up for fall break (wow, is that already here) I wanted to make certain that we are all on the same page in regard to practices and expectations. Fall Break begins on Thursday for students. Teachers (and Principals) will be at school attending an in-service. Therefore our practice times for Thursday are as follows:

3:00 - 4:30 on the field (Soccer sectionals to follow so we must be timely)
4:45 - Devotions
5:00 - Dinner
5:30 - Players ready to go home

Friday vs. Park Tudor
At school at 4:00

Saturday am
9:00 - 10:30

All players (Freshman - Seniors) are expected to attend all practices. We will have Freshman/JV games the following week vs. Ritter and want to make sure our teams continue the ability to tune up on Thursday and Saturday's for the following weeks contests.

Friday-Connersville

All,

We are ready for another exciting Friday night. This week, as you know, we are traveling to Connersville. The bus will be leaving HCS at 3:45 so players will need to hustle after school to get their bags packed and ready to leave.
Considering the long distance and the lateness of our return, we will not be taking all freshman on this trip. We do need to take some freshman with us as we have had some injuries, illness, and situations this week with the varsity that may lead us to needing a few of the freshman to be available in substitute roles. The following Freshman will be traveling with the team: McKenzie, McCarthy, Pounds, Bryant, Williams, Marsh, and Christiansen. Any Freshman who may want to travel home with their parents are certainly welcomed to do so as they will have a short nights sleep before returning for the freshman game on Saturday.
We look forward to continuing the win steak and ministering to the Spartans.

Go Big Blue, Coach Q

devotions

All,

I have really enjoyed the devotions this week with our team. Our topic has been centered about total commitment to Jesus Christ and "dying to self". Are we really totally sold out for Jesus Christ in every area of our life.

This team is unique and I am blessed to be a part of the ministry.

Go Big Blue,

NO players will be allowed to drive to this event.
