Tim selected for his first All Star team

Tim was one of four boys selected by his own teammates for the sixth grade Little League football All Star game. And he was the only lineman selected. I suspect that the other teams involved will also pick few lineman (lets face it; the line is not the flash place to be in football) so he’s likely to play every down.

in the last two weeks Tim’s team beat Yonkers by a lot to nothing, and then lost last week to White Plains in overtime, 29-28. That’s a great job by Tim’s team, since Ossining runs three teams in the 5th-6th grade league, and Yonkers and White Plains are much bigger locales with a bigger pool of players.

This from the Yonkers game; Tim is #77

 

On the defensive line – check the size of the Yonkers boy to Tim’s right! 6th grade? Did he drive to the field? But Tim did well when he was head to head with him –

 

 

Here’s White Plains – first picture is the pre-game psyche up

 

The White Plains ballcarrier eluded the first tackler – but then Tim buried him …

 

 

Action Man!

    Congratulations to the All Star.
    How very strange to see “Faranda” on the back of a football jersey.

  2. Yeah, and guess who’s getting that jersey when the season is over!
    Hey, he wears my clothes all the time …
