Powder-Puff Football Game

by Cody Pearce

October 08, 2009

    The game last Friday was the Wildcats against the…Lady Wildcats?? That is, the 2nd annual WCHS powder-puff football game.
    The game started at 4:00 PM. It was played using flags, not tackling, and they played on the Sharon Springs football field. There were two teams: the Black team, coached by Larry O’Connor; and the Blue team, coached by Virgil Fischer. There were ten girls playing on each team.
    Said Coach O’Connor of his team’s chances, “It’s going to be power vs. speed, and power always wins. Tell them to get ready, ‘cause I’m releasing the rattlesnake.”
Taylor Weinland of the Blue team said, “Our speed is just too much. We’ll dominate.”
    “It’s going to be a circus,” said Coach Fischer.
    Both teams had been preparing all week for the game. The teams played four eight-minute quarters, and at the end of regulation, neither team had scored a touchdown. Kenzi Knobbe was nearing the goal line as the clock ran out of time, but to no avail; she was pushed out of bounds by a Blue defender to end the game in a 0-0 tie.
    Congratulations to all participants and good luck next year.
