I heard 1989 being thrown out tonight… Carson hasn’t won against McQueen since 1989…. And in a remarkable fashion Carson “gritted” it out tonight for a 19-6 win over the Lancers! This one will be remembered at Carson High for some time…
Well what a night! The night started out giving us a little “refreshment” from the sky… it poured for awhile and the game got under way 20 minutes late due to a lightning strike… but just as we were all making our way back to the field we were treated to this…
… and this… you just can’t stand there and NOT take a photo of this stuff… I mean, come on, it’s beautiful!!
When the game starts out like this… (notice the McQueen player launching himself to tackle Joey…) you know it’s going to be a “gritty” game…!
Nevin was a battering ram tonight… working his way “through” people, why bother going around just bowl them over… or pick them up…
And the hits kept coming from Carson… the fellas played with a lot of heart tonight, it was really great to see and be a part of… Here Andrew made a cracking tackle late in the 4th quarter to stop McQueen.
… and all of that great football lead to a lot of these happy faces… Toga… maybe you’re on to something? 🙂
… and a final score… two touch downs, a field goal and a safety. Carson certainly had McQueen’s number tonight… a game which saw a lot of run plays and some tough gritty defense… what fun!
