Well now, let me tell ya about that St. Francis High School football team, bless their hearts. They been playin’ football for quite a while, and folks around here always got somethin’ to say about them, whether they win or lose. Now, I ain’t no expert, but I seen a lot of them games and know a bit about how them boys carry on out there on the field.
So, St. Francis is one of them high schools that’s real proud of their football team, ya know? They call themselves the Lancers, and they sure got a name to live up to. They play all sorts of schools, from big city teams to little ol’ schools like them ones up north. And let me tell ya, sometimes they win, sometimes they don’t, but they always put up a good fight.
Their schedule is packed tight, and every season, folks look forward to them big games. Like this one time, they was playin’ St. Ignatius in the Central Coast Section Open Division title game. Now, that was a game to remember, though it didn’t turn out too good for St. Francis that time. It rained cats and dogs, and the game was a real mud mess. But them boys didn’t give up. They fought to the last minute, but it was a tough one, and they lost 10-7. But even though they lost, you could see they still had their heads held high, ready to fight another day.
That’s the thing about St. Francis, they don’t never back down. I remember another game where them boys had a hard time against Sycamore. But they pushed through it, keepin’ their spirits up, even when it looked like they might not win. They give it their all, every time. I seen ‘em play some real tough teams, and they don’t quit easy. That’s a lot of heart, if you ask me.
And don’t even get me started on their quarterback, Brady Palmer. Now that boy sure knows how to handle a football. I seen him runnin’ for his life a few times, dodgin’ tackles like he was born with wings. Sometimes he’d get knocked around a bit, but he’d always get back up and keep goin’. I reckon that’s what makes a good quarterback, someone who don’t let a little dirt or a few bruises slow ‘em down. He was out there in a big state semifinal game, runnin’ around and tryin’ to keep things goin’ for his team, even when it got real tough. But in the end, that game didn’t go their way neither. The other team, Nazareth, they ended up winning. But like I said, them boys from St. Francis, they don’t just roll over. They fight ‘til the very end.
Now, it ain’t always about win or lose, sometimes it’s about what you learn and how you grow. Every year, them boys play their hardest, and they get better, win or lose. I reckon that’s what the coaches tell ‘em: ‘Ya gotta keep your heads up, no matter how the game turns out.’ And that’s how it goes with St. Francis football. It’s all about tryin’ your best and playin’ with heart, no matter what the scoreboard says at the end of the game.
If you’re lookin’ to know more about the team, well, they got their schedules and rosters up online. You can see who’s playin’, when they playin’, and all that. They got a real full schedule, with all sorts of games lined up every season. And you can find out all about the Lancers, from their coaches to their players. They even keep track of their wins and losses so folks can see how they’re doin’. I reckon that’s pretty neat, so you don’t gotta guess what’s goin’ on. You can just go online and get all the details.
So, whether you’re a fan of St. Francis or just watchin’ from the sidelines, you gotta give ‘em credit. They play with pride, they play with heart, and they don’t ever give up. That’s what makes ‘em a team worth watchin’ every year. Now, let’s hope they keep on playin’ like they been playin’ and make us proud!
