Parent Night
Parents and Players,
We will be having our Parent Night, this Friday September 24th at 6:15 pm. All parents must report to the track no later than 6:00 pm in order for us to get you in the appropriate order for the celebration. I already have a roster typed up with the players and their parents names in order for this year to go by much smoother than last year. We will begin announcing the parents with their player no later than 6:15 pm.
Also, we will be hosting our mother, father, and special person appreciation nights during our last three weeks of the season. Week seven the players will be honoring their mother and presenting their away game jersey. Week eight, the players will be honoring their father and presenting their home game jersey. For week nine, the players will choose someone special in their life to honor. This could be a relative, neighbor, teacher, coach, etc.... I will keep you posted with the times and dates when we get closer to those dates.
Take care,
Coach Heppner

Week 3 Players of the Week
Parents and Players,
Offense Player of the Week: Jake Duzey
Defensive Player of the Week: AJ King
Special Teams Player of the Week: Bret Kast
Scout O Player of the Week: Micah Safsten
Scout D Player of the Week: Brandon Terry
Big Stick of the Week: Blake Atwell, Lonnie Boldon
Count on Me Player of the Week: Ben Bartnowak
Congratulations to all of our Week 3 Players of the Week! I'd also like to congratulate a young man who has truly risen to the occasion and made himself into an outstanding offensive linemen over the last few weeks. After a tough first week, Joe Colo has quickly made himself into a dominating factor on our offensive line. He, along with Trevor Mason, Jake Collison, Andrew Aurand, Corey Thai, Brandon Wehbe, Brandon Terry, Jon Daniel, Kento Mori, and Donovan Usoro all compete daily to make up our starting five and become the best offensive line in the conference. I feel that all of the "Big Sexies" have experienced a much deserved wake-up call over the last two weeks; and Joe - the youngest in terms of Varsity experience - along with the other lineman, are more than willing to step up and become the dominators I know they can be. Great job Joe!!!
I know from a Varsity standpoint these last two weeks have been frustrating. As we continue to evaluate our players both offensively and defensively, it is evident that we are lacking consistency in all aspects of our game. I'm focusing mainly on the consistency in the belief that we are the best team playing football on Friday nights. No matter what the situation may be, or who we are playing; we will end each week victorious. I'm asking for help from all the parents to continuously remind each player of their tremendous abilities, and how blessed they are to be surrounded by such great teammates. It does not matter if we are up by 60 points, or down by 60 points, we must continue to fight to the very end. We must not forget all the hard work these young men have put in to this off-season. Each and every member of this team must continue to stay focused, constantly study their scouting reports, encourage, and challenge their teammates week-in and week-out. If our players can put all these factors together, along with a "never say die" attitude, we will be unstoppable. Clarkston is now behind us. We must look ahead and fully prepare ourselves for total domination against Royal Oak. Take care, and I'll talk to you soon.
