2008 Pony Bowl Champions

Matthew and his football team have won the championship! Their team, the Patriots, had a great season. Their record was 6-2 and they were in second place behind the Broncos, whose record of 7-1 was marred only by a loss to the Patriots.

Coming in to the championship game, we knew that we had a strong team. The game got off to a great start and the Patriots wiped the floor with the Broncos. Matt had several hard hitting tackles, even the parents gasped when Matt tackled the other team.

Matt had a huge crowd of supporters including Grandma, Sara, Trevor, Haven, Caitlin, Steve, Erica, Dana and even baby Sasha! Everyone was hoarse from cheering when the game ended with a score of 19-6. The Patriots had won the "Pony Bowl!" (Stillwater's mascot is the Ponies)

After the game the entire team went to Stillwater's Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner and the carousing carried on for quite a while. Coach Randy did a great job with the team and this was our chance to thank him for his devotion to our kids. Sarah K was our server. While we were there, Shaunee came in to get take-out and we got to see her too! I think she and Chris are going to come over next Saturday for a bonfire!
