It was "WON" of those DAYS!

"AND the 2011

1A STATE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS ARE....

DUCHESNE HIGH SCHOOL"

Saturday November 12, 2011 proved to be a glorious day for many boys in the small down of Duchesne, but will go down in history as being one of the greatest day's to one senior boy imparticular, Cam Wilkerson, my great big senior son. Cam's been working extremely hard for months for this day to come...the day of STATE FOOTBALL. Many hours of sweat, cold, heat, bruised arms...legs, long hours and a lot of great memories went into preparing for this day that so many teams hope for, but few get to ever see. This is the teams second year in the past 4 years, winning the State Championship...last year Cam didn't get to play much, but this year he was a very big part of the team and was a valuable asset, making it even more exciting to be on the winning team. He played an awesome game and I couldn't be prouder of my amazing senior son!!! We braved the cold, the snow and the wind as we sat there and watched him work his tail off to help bring his team to a victory! It was an amazing game and a fantastic season especially since we went UNDEFEATED the entire season...now that's a team that works hard and sticks together!

Here are a few pictures of the game that will go down in Cam's book as being one of the best days of his high school career!

I would hate to be on the receiving end of THAT sprint"

pushing, shoving, hitting, tackling...sounds like great fun if your a boy~

Cam ready to take the man DOWN!

All that hard work requires alot of water!

"YOU'RE going DOWN!"

Cam says to his opponent, "TAKE THAT!!...you just lay there until

I tell you that you can get up!"....ha ha ha ha ha

"WE did it, WE ARE #1... hallelujah~ happy day!"

A lot of smiles from some pretty happy boys!!

AND the final score IS~ 35-9.... I guess you can say, we WON!

You did an OUTSTANDING job, Cam! The entire football season was filled with memories

that will fill your heart and soul for many years to come.

We, your little family, are proud of you and LOVE YOU so much!
