After overcoming a rough first quarter and some shaky officiating, the Eagles beat up Varina pretty good:  47-21.  We went down 0-14 early but Osbourn just never gives up and we were tied at the end of the first half.  2 quick scores at the beginning of the 3rd set us on the path to win.  I am enormously proud of our Eagles and congratulate them on having the grit to come back from 14 down to win.  Unless I’m mistaken, this is the third undefeated opponent to fall to the Eagles in as many weeks.  Awesome.

Congrats to the City staff for pulling off another good neighborhood conference.  I was one of the speakers and, while I feel that my speech was not a great one, the point of the conference is to enable the people who are trying to save their neighborhoods so my performance didn’t much matter.

This conference and the City’s Neighborhood Services department are crucial in keeping our strong neighborhoods strong and giving our weaker ones a hand up.  I hope that everyone had a good time and learned some things that can help you in your quest.
