This Thursday is the Kickapoo varsity game and it is at JFK.  We are the host (home) team and are responsible for the game program.  I am needing 4 people to help hand out the programs and there will also be Kickapoo people helping.  The reason for this is because there will be a special insert promoting the Bond issue.  It is very important for Glendale that this bond issue passes in November.

Please email me if you are willing to help.  We will start handing out the program around 6 and be done around 7:30 or so.  There are 2 entrances so we are trying to put 4 people at each entrance.

Thanks-Tina

It was a clash of winless teams, with both our Glendale Falcons and the Waynesville Tigers coming into the game at 0-4.  Unfortunately it was our Falcons who suffered a 5th straight loss, as the Tigers handed us a 14-43 defeat.

Just like last week, our Falcons came out strong, taking the opening drive for a touchdown, and a 7-0 lead.  But Waynesville would respond with 2 quick touchdowns, to take a 7-14 lead by the end of the first quarter.  With turnovers plaguing the Falcons, Waynesville would tack on another touchdown in the second quarter to build up a 7-21.  But our Falcons were not quite done yet, and a quick 64-yard pass from Adam Noble to Trevor Vaughn resulted in a touchdown, to draw the Falcons within 14-21.  By the end of the half, our Falcons were driving again, but with only 1 timeout left by then, there just wasn’t enough time for a score, as time ran out while Evan Leake had run the ball deep into Tiger territory - 14-21 halftime score.

After a decent first half, the second half got away our Falcons - it would see the Tigers capitalize on more Falcon turnovers (at least 3 Falcon turnovers led directly to Tiger touchdowns), while our offense would stall.  The game ended with the Tigers scoring their first victory of the season, 14-43.

Our Falcons started out last season at 0-5 just like this year, and we still ended up with a 2nd place district finish, to continue into the state playoffs - next week starts district play, meaning it’s time to turn up the intensity.  So come out next Thursday night (not Friday), when our Falcons take on the arch-rival Kickapoo Chiefs (fresh off a loss at Lebanon Friday night, 7-14).  We will be the home team at JFK (Parkview’s stadium), so come out and cheer on our Falcons to their first victory, and an all-important district victory - GO FALCONS!!!

Ok, now we are looking for helpers for next Monday September 28th, when the JV plays Waynesville.  Please email me if you are available.  You will need to arrive around 5:15.  So far we have 1 and we need 5.

Thanks-Tina
