They surprised us with an unbalanced line and a quick snap. It took us a drive to figure it out.

There was a loose ball, and he shot it from 3 or 4 feet beyond the line, like it was nothing.

The snap was good, the hold was good, but the kick wasn't good. I was very much surprised where that ball ended up.

The 1,000-meters and 1,500-meters took a lot of snap out of my legs. And I just didn't feel like myself. That's part of the deal whenever you pick five different events and try to go for something spectacular. You end up sacrificing some time in different events.

The students took on the identity with a name, clothing and characteristics of this Colonial figure. They were surprised at how much information they really learned about the era and how much they enjoyed presenting to the other classes. They dressed, spoke and presented their reports as if they were living in the Colonial times.

I never had a father figure so I never missed it.
