Columbus Sailor Football... - Page 2

Jenson71 · 09-03-2004, 09:49 PM

Tonight was our season opener. This year's varsity team is the same team that went undefeated (9-0) two years ago as Fresh/Sophs. Everything has been leading up to this season. Working out all year long, two-a-days in the summer, camps, and long, tiring practices everyday after school.

We are extremely athletic team, but not real big. Actually, I'm the biggest guy on the team. We do have technique, and we do have a lot of heart. This year, we moved down from 3A to 2A. We also got new, and cooler uniforms too.

So tonight's matchup was against Olewein, a much bigger 3A team.

And we smoked them. 56-13. It was one of the best games I've ever seen. We were sound all the way through our starting seniors to some backup freshman that even played. I'm absolutely confident we are the best 2A team in the state and will go undefeated again, but I'm really not supposed to say that.

Oh well. We rule.

Yes, I looked it up on the internets.

Ah, I see this is cross-thread humor. No, even better. Cross-forum. Now it's really getting exotic.

I actually saw Colgan lose once. Erie beat them in 1994. It was like seeing a UFO.

Don't go crying when Marion blows your undefeated season.

I'll bet any amount of money this is not going to happen, whoman.

$100 good for you or do you want to go higher?

I just moved to Sioux City from Cedar Rapids three months ago. I started hearing the talk about Waterloo Columbus and Marion and I was absolutely blown away.

I went to Cedar Rapids LaSalle for 2 years before they merged with Regis to become Xavier. Even though we never played Columbus or Marion, I remember playing those guys in basketball as part of the good ol' WAMAC conference.

All the talk here is about Heelan (yet another Catholic school). They're in the top 10 I believe.

Jenson71 · 10-29-2004, 10:34 PM

Things were looking grim. After starting the season off with 5 straight wins, we had lost three in a row. One loss was to an 0-6 Osage team. Spirits were low, and our playoff hopes were on life support. In order to get to the playoffs, two things needed to happen. 1.) We beat South Winn tonight. 2.) Union (6-2, and who we've beat) needed to lose to Clarion (5-3, and who we've beat)

South Winn was 1-6. We had to be focused, and treat this game like it was our last. With that in mind, we come out firing, and after a little t-storm break, ended up with a 34-8 win.

And with about 3 minutes left in the game, we hear the announcer (The "Voice of the Sailors") announce a North Fayette victory. I looked up knowing he would give the more meaningful score.

"And it's a final in Clarion. Union - 6." He hesistated just enough to drive me past the brink of insanity. "Clarion - 33."

Words can obviously not describe the feeling of knowing that your team, the team you've killed yourself over with 20 some other guys, has made it to State playoffs. It was incredible.

Our first playoff game is on Wednesday. Is a whole nudda ballgame y'll

You haven't won a playoff game in 17 years.

Well now, we haven't won a playoff game in a little over in hour. We beat some Valley team tonight, 17-9. Despite what the score might suggest, it was an easy win. Our next game is against North Fayette next Tuesday in the UNI Dome. North Fayette was the team that beat us earlier this year for our first loss. Revenge.

Jenson71 · 11-10-2004, 12:11 AM

Tonight, North Fayette was given their first loss...yes, by my Columbus Sailors. We didn't just beat them, we blew the hell out of them. 38-14. We're in the 2A Final Four now. And we don't have practice tomorrow, and our next game is on Monday, which means no school.
