My 5th grade football team played last Saturday for the Championship against Moapa- a team we had never played before and was made up of not only 5th graders but a few 4th graders adn a lot of 6th graders! It was a really exciting game...We have been undefeated to this point. But this game they made the first touch down with in the first quarter. We got to the 5 yard line but fumbled and they got the ball. We finally made a touchdown with only a few seconds left in the first half but we didn't make the extra point, putting the score at 7-6. The other team scored another touchdown in the fourth quarter making the score 13-6 with only 8 minutes left in the game. When they kicked the ball to us after their touchdown, #2 on my team caught it and ran the full field making a touchdown! We made our extra point. The score was tied.......the other team had the ball, and only about 5 minutes left in the game. We held them back and got the ball. With only a minute left in the game we scored. They had the ball with just enough time to make a touchdown but they fumbled the ball and we held the ball for the last 10 seconds. We won 20-13.....We got some really cool trophy's and celebrated with the team for about half an hour. It was the most exciting day of my life!
