Gratitude.
The 2024 MMS Vikings Football season came to a close this week, with the 7th grade beating Emmett on Monday night, and the 8th grade suffering a tough loss to the Huskies on Wednesday night.
While it was a disappointing way to end the season for the 8th grade team, the loss does not define them, nor does it diminish their overall success and potential. Those boys will go on and do great things in the years ahead.
Football is a sport that requires a unified team effort. Coaching football is not much different. The MMS Vikings Football Program was fortunate to have these 4 dedicated men come together to help out over the course of the last two years:
Offensive Coach Allen Boshaw
Defensive Coach Travis Emery
Receivers & DBs Coach Mark Pittard
Linemen Coach Jacob Fowler
These gentlemen showed a deep and genuine care for every player on the team, and they all made various personal sacrifices in order to be at practice everyday, and assist in any way they could. They showed tremendous buy-in, and often put their pride and ego aside for the sake of the team, and the mission. While they all came from different backgrounds, with different perspectives, they all were unified in wanting what was best for these boys, not only in football, but in life. Each of them provided a daily example of what it means to be a good man, a good father, and a good husband. In short; They're good human beings.
The MMS Vikings Football Program would be remiss if it did not recognize, acknowledge and thank these fine men for their commitment and hard work throughout these last two seasons.
Gentlemen, your help has been invaluable, your contributions have been incalculable, and your influence has been immeasurable. The impact you have made will ripple for generations.
Thank you.
