C'mon. folks! This HAS to go to "Touchdown Tina" Shelstrom!
At Stagg's Junior and Senior Powder Puff game on Wednesday Evening she ran for two touchdowns on two carries, one for about 10 yards and the other about 50! She had a tackle to boot!
The score was 27-7 seniors over juniors, so they only let her run twice so as not to embarrass the younger Chargers.
What could top that?LOL

Bloom Township has two teams on their schedule with winning records and one of the teams is Crete-Monee. We going to take them down just like in past seasons, that 4-1 record is full of cupcakes & weak teams. My son's freshman team could beat Fenton & Philips.
