CLAYTON VALLEY VS. CARDINAL NEWMAN - 12/13/2008 from ysn365 on Vimeo.

Hey, what can I say?  I'm first and foremost a proud mama. (#58)  Congratulations to the Cardinal Newman football team for a phenomenal season.  They're headed down south to play in the CIF State Football Championships to be held on Saturday, December 20th.  Cardinal Newman will play St. Bonaventure for the state title and win or lose, it will be the experience of a lifetime for the boys, the families, and the fans that have supported them throughout the year.

So, at this time when we should be baking Christmas cookies, sending out cards, stringing lights and filling the stockings, we're booking hotel reservations and lining up transportation to the Home Depot Center in beautiful Carson, CA.  And the boys?  There was no time to savor the championship of this past weekend.  Between reviewing a semester's worth of Algebra, Chemistry, AP History and English and taking final exams, they'll be back on the football field and in the weight room for one last week with the hope that they can bring home the state championship next Saturday night.

Way to go boys.  Good luck on Saturday!
