First scrimmage

The 6th grade orange had its first taste of live action against an opponent today with the Cedarburg scrimmage.

Overall, I was happy with the progress we made throughout the course of the scrimmage. Some of the newer players were a little bit overwhelmed at first, and some of the players that played last year were a little rusty. But as the scrimmage went on, there was a lot of improvement and we were able to break a few big plays.

I was especially happy that we were able to get a lot of plays in for many of the players and we got a good look at who fits in at what position. We were also very short-handed today with injuries and absences, and I thank those players who played out-of-position for their unselfish efforts.

A thank you to parents and our team managers for helping the day go as smoothly as a youth football scrimmage can go.

Back to work on Monday...
