Great Football Weekend

Great football weekend for the Parrys! Jake, Evan & Sam are a combined 14-1 this season. Jake's team and Sam's team are each 5-0 and Evan's team (Bountiful High J.V.) is 4-1 with their only loss coming late in the fourth quarter.

This weekend, Sam's team took their 4-0 record into Park City. Sam scored a running touchdown early in the game which was called back for holding, but later threw the first touchdown pass of his young career. Parry to Foster. They eventually beat Park City 18-0, registering their first defensive shutout. The Park City mountains behind the field showed orange, red & yellow. It was a beautiful fall day (if a little hot at over 80 degrees). Keep winning Sam!

Jake's team faced a Cyprus team yesterday that hadn't won a game. Perhaps this made Bountiful a little over-confident, as the score was tied 6-6 at the end of regulation. Jake's defense was stellar as always (teams often throw away from Jake's corner, because he has a reputation as a hard-hitting, good cornerback). After a 30-minute injury delay that required an ambulance, Jake's team finally finished off Cyprus in overtime, winning 12-6. This brings their overall record to 5-0. Only two teams in the Bountiful Region are undefeated (Jake's & Sam's).

Bountiful High played Mountain Crest this week. Varsity lost 21-7, but the J.V. team chalked up their 4th win of the season, winning 46-10. Evan (#52) had his best game of the season, tackling the kicker for a 20-yard loss and rushing the quarterback. He also did a great job at his O-line position, allowing the running backs to score several touchdowns. Up next for them this week: cross-town rival WX.

We couldn't finish this post without mentioning that BYU moved up to the #8 spot in the national rankings this week. So, overall it was a great football weekend for the Parrys.
