Game Pics - 10/4/08

Bingham Gold vs. Alta Crimson
(7-0 Bingham)

Congrats to our boys on a hard-earned win against Alta Crimson! Cold, wet, and rainy was the name of the game today. It was our team's first time playing on a slippery field this season, and it gave the players some valuable experience to know what it feels like to play ball in bad weather. It was really nice to have a 5-gallon jug of hot chocolate on the sidelines, two easy-ups, and a propane heater to help curb the cold! In spite of numerous fumbles and slips by both teams as they fought to hold onto the ball, our boys managed to break the stale mate and take a touchdown home during the 3rd quarter. They topped it off by scoring an extra point for good measure. It wound up being the only touchdown of the game, and fortunately for us, it worked in our favor. Any way you slice and dice it, 7-0 is still a win and it is still a shut-out! Great job hanging in there boys! You fought hard, and you kept your heads in the game until the very end. Inches make champions! Next up is Park City White who lost 0-32 today against Bingham Silver. Our team remains solidly in second place just behind Riverton Grey, who we will have the chance to meet up with on October 25th. It's going to be a great rival game! Go Bingham Gold! You rock!!
