Are you ready for some football?
Although Tecumseh kicked off the pigskin season last night, other schools had their first game tonight.
A couple of the games were pretty big deals, even though we aren’t in district play yet. Northeastern and Kenton Ridge played one another tonight (forgive me if I’m missing something here and they are always be the first game for one another). And we have the first game in decades for the Springfield High School Wildcats.
My colleague Brian Plasters wrote an interesting opinion piece today on the high school merger here in Springfield. He proposed that the real success tonight wouldn’t be counted by points but by people — how many showed up to support the new combined team.
Did anyone go? What was the crowd like tonight? The game was in Hamilton (Springfield lost) which is a pretty good drive and with gas so expensive and it being so far, it wouldn’t suprise me if only a few made the trek.
So, can anythng tell us: Just how many of our rowdy friends showed up tonight?
