Award for Austin

Yesterday was the season-ending Banquet for the WMU Football Team in Kalamazoo. Patty sent a photo to us of Austin and his roommate, Trevor, receiving the award for outstanding Special Teams play during the year. What an honor, and we are so very proud of Austin for receiving this award as a result of his hard work and dedication. He has been steadily improving in his Special Teams play, and this year it became very obvious to everyone else that he is a talented young man and a main reason for the excellent Special Teams play by the Broncos all year long. Here is the photo that was taken last night:

Next up for Austin is the Bahamas Bowl on Christmas Eve Day. Be sure to watch the game on ESPN at noon on the 24th and watch for #23 on the WMU Broncos Special Teams.

More good football news occurred yesterday as our teams, the Seahawks and the Cardinals both had impressive victories. The Seahawks beat the Minnesota Vikings, 38-7, and are now in "steamroller" mode for the rest of the season. The Cardinals beat the St Louis Rams, 27-3, and are also cruising along through the rest of their schedule. It appears that a showdown is imminent between the Seahawks and Cardinals in the NFC. Don't be surprised if the NFC Champion is decided between those two teams.

It was what you might call a "perfect" ending to a great football day...
