Owen’s Mitey Mite Lions team had their first game Saturday. They struggled a bit in the first half, and got behind, but really started to pull it together in the second half. Owen played mostly center on offense and linebacker on defense.
He did a good job at center, holding off the nose tackle and had consistently good snaps to the four quarterbacks. I think there was only one bobble on a snap in the whole game. He really started to shine at linebacker late in the game when he was busting through the middle and made a key tackle pretty much on his own, with a little help at the end.
I was also proud that Owen was a great teammate, always right there to pat someone on the back for a good play and cheer up others when things weren’t going well.
Game photos are here. (Owen is #53 — don’t you think his post-game hair kind of looks like Davy Jones in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie? Also, what do you have to do to get your helmet to be so dirty?)
