Tough day in Cardinal-ville ...
Well .... the visiting Raiders did just that. They raided the birdcage and went back home with 3 W's on the day. Tough one for the home team crowd. The little ones (C's - 7 & 8 yr olds) played their opponents pretty tough in the 1st half but kind of ran out of steam in the 2nd. The B's ... :( they kinda-sorta ... well - no good way to put it - they got killed. The 11&12 yr old A's - God bless 'em. They are seriously under manned with only 13 or 14 players in total on the entire team so you know what that means - these kids are playing, almost non-stop, both offense AND defense. The visiting Raiders by contrast are HUGE both in physical size, and in numbers - they must have had easily 30+ players on their side of the field. They are also the #1 ranked team in the state at present for the age division.
Anyway -- congrats are in order to the visiting Apalachin Raiders. I have to score some dinner for myself but figured I'd get this out real quick with a couple of grabs from each of the three games. All of the keepers will be going up to the galleries over the next day or so. Click on any of the images to view them larger.
