Back For A Replay....First Weekend Of December In Tacoma

Yesterday the Connell Eagles beat up on the Omak Pioneers 55-21. The day started out with snow falling....so beautiful! It was cold when we got up but managed to get to about 32 degrees by gametime (4:00 p.m. at Lampson Field in Kennewick). The Kamiakin Braves beat Capital in the game prior to ours. Go Braves! People came dressed in snow pants and heavy coats, lugging in blankets and hot chocolate. The stands were packed with lots of Connell fans. Omak had its share also, but I bet they were wishing they were back at home. Not to take anything away from Omak, they were a good football team, just not good enough to come close to Connell. The win makes for a repeat of last year in the Tacoma Dome next Saturday, at 10:0 a.m. (Cascade Cristian beat Meridian 21-0.) By the end of the game my feet were frozen! The wind stayed away, thank goodness. The drive home was slow due to the heavy fog....the temp a mere 18 degrees! LOVE WINTER!!!! Go Eagles!! Time for another State Championship!!! Go Eagles!
