Welcome to Marina Auto Stadium. Site of the 2009 Sectional 5/6 Playoffs. this was a game that North Tonawanda new would be a difficult contest. When I am photographing from the sidelines my friend Schooch normally expresses his worry about the team and the score. I mean when NT was beating up on Williamsville North and ended with a final score of 63-0 he said, “They could come back.” Schooch scared me at the beginning of this game because he took a very different tone. This time he said, “I’m not really worried about this game. The boys should handle this team easily.” The boys handled the team but closed out with their closest score this year. I’m going be a little more concerned when Schooch tells me “he’s worried about this team.” We haven’t spoken about the upcoming contest against Baldwinsville so I’m not sure where we stand yet.
Norm Shreve is the father of Casey and Kyle Shreve. Today he was also known as the “Grill Master.” Nice job on the hamburgers and hot dogs Norm. The food we had was tremendous. I heard something about chowder and gumbo for next week. No wonder I enjoy football games so much or maybe it’s just the tailgating part. No, the football was excellent too.
The Lumberjacks have dominated every team they faced this year. This lead the team to an 11-0 record. The depth of this team at many positions is quite remarkable. Thankfully the team has not known many injuries during their campaign for the 2009 State Championship.
The team fought a difficult battle against a very worthy foe. North Tonawanda fought through many penalties and miscues to be victorious. This victory ensured the team would move on to the next level and continue to advance toward the coveted State Championship title. Winning this contest also gave the ‘Jacks title as the “Section V/VI Regional Champions.” There has not been a previous Lumberjacks team that has ever advanced to this level. Congratulations boys! You, your coaching staff have done a fantastic job. The unbelieveable NT fans will continue to make the trip down the I-90 to support you!
The Lumberjacks play a highly ranked team from Baldwinsville, NY on Saturday, November 21, 2009 at 6:00 PM.
Megan told me how much she enjoys Fall and Winter. Megan came up with a wonderful idea for her ring shot. I love the brilliant colors in this shot. It’s these colors that also bring the warmth of Fall closer to my heart.
This shot was taken in the lot of one of the newer schools in Niagara Falls. I had previously driven by this schoolyard and fell in love with these sculptures. They mean many things to me but enough for now. The rest of the post will be up early next week. Check back next week and see more photos from this fun photo session.
Kujo playing both sides of the ball very effectively.
Kujo was thankful his “O” line did such a fantastic job blocking and opening up running lanes. Seriously, this is a good team!
Kujo broke away from tacklers to secure some of his 174-rushing yards.
