Luke has now completed his first Football Season as East Noble's head coach and what a great season it was. They lost a hard fought battle last Friday night to Concord in the 1st round of Sectionals, 38-35. Though this game did not end the way Knight Nation wanted it to, it was a great and memorable game...as were so many of the games this year. I can not say enough for his seniors this year, they had heart & desire like no other team I have ever seen before! Those characteristics, in these young men, will take them far in life. I am so proud of the whole team and all of the coaches...I know how hard they work and how much it all means to them:)
They ended the season 7-3 which is a pretty honorable record. As I was talking with Amy (our kiddos Babysitter, though she is much more than that to our family...we love you Amy:) she said something to me that I think hit the nail on the head...a football season's success is much more than just wins/losses. Though we definitely love to win...don't get me wrong:)
The coaching staff, players, fans, and community, gained much more than a winning record this year. You know what I mean Knight Nation:) There was a new excitement in the air. EN pride was something that continued to build throughout the season and it became so commanding that it could not be demolished. However, I think most of all there was something that connected the East Noble players, coaches, fans, and community together that made us unstoppable...I do not mean in the win/lose sort of way, I mean in the appreciate, enjoy, and live life to the fullest way! Now that's SUCCESS! It is amazing what can come out of Football...
Luke & I are proud that our kiddos are Future Knights!
