Champions Again

Last Saturday marked an end of an era, as the Fox Valley Force ( www.foxvalleyforce.com ) repeated as champions of the Wisconsin State Football League. The Force knocked off tthe Menomonie & Marinette Timber Jacks 38-9 to cap a 12-0 season. This is the first time in league history a team finised undefeated and won the championship.
It was a great night for football, cold with occasional snow flurries. I started the game and played the first half and the first series of the second half. By then we were up 18-3 and the back-ups started to fill in. Unlike last year, I walked away from this game with no injuries, in fact the knee felt the best it had all season.
It is an end of an era, as the Force will move to the Northern Elite Football League (NEFL) with games beginning in May 2009. I'm going to miss alot of the guys I've battled with over the last 3 years in the WSFL.
