Cade has become one awesome player this year and I have had a mix between worrying about injuries and nail biting to having the blast of my life watching him play. This year he play linebacker on the defense & tight end on the offense. We've had a great season of wins but we have had a rough patch the last two games however even though we lost to Lone peak by one touchdown the other night Cade had the game of his life. I think they probably said his name over the intercom 20 times. He had about 15 or 20 tackles and also caught an awesome pass on a 4th down which gave them a 1st down.
He's the one on the ground on the picture above
Their team occasionally does a haka, which is a Polynesian war chant before the games and it's really neat and powerful.
He's always sweaty and gross after the games, he for sure rides home with Chris cuz I'm not smelling that.
Farthest player on the field
So the Timpanogos game was interesting...Cade and another team member tackled a boy and the boy left on a stretcher. Cade felt really bad even though he did everything right and it was just one of those things.
He had nightmares about the kid all night long. It's also been a year of doctor visits for us as well. Cade had a back injury during tryouts, then they thought he had a broken jaw during a game with Juan Diego but it turned out he just ripped every muscle he could on his jaw. Actually we still aren't sure it didn't break because it feels different now then the other side but he doesn't want to go back until the season is over. His last injury was a damage to all the growth plates along the toes on his right foot. He's all healed right now though and ready for his game against Spanish Fork on Saturday. He's super excited to play them since they are all of his friends from the old house. Pray for us that he stays safe & keeps playing hard.
