Some unfinished business

[PHJIrish]

I was busy with family matters yesterday and didn't get to post in the Cathedral/Center Grove thread.  I just wanted to say I was happy for Steve Wheat.  Steve and I worked together at an Avon auto dealer for most of 5 years.  It must have brought a smile, or maybe even a tear, to Steve's face to see his grandson run 67 yards for the go ahead TD in the game Friday night.  I also am happy for Grover, who's been a friend of mine for many years.  Don't get me wrong, I wanted my team to win but, as I said before, losing Friday night had no after game consequences.  Both teams now just get on with the business of winning a State Championship.

Cathedral J/V 14 Center Grove 12

Cathedral Frosh 21 Center Grove 0 

Irish teams go 24-2 on the regular season. One J/V loss to St. X and obviously the varsity defeat to CG last Friday. A great regular season.

I will give a shout out to Cathedral's QB Danny O'neil he is the real deal! What he did as a sophomore under those conditions was awesome. I just put him on my 2023 Mr. Football candidate list.

He is the real deal, and he's only going to get better.  He'll have a lot of good receivers back next year to help his progression too.

What year is Parker Spellacy? he is a solid TE; something you don't see much of in high school any more.

Sadly, he's a senior.   Brennan Wooten is the other TE and he's a junior.

Are you the one that told me at the gate,  your dad was the coach in the 1980's?

I'm happy for all those who enjoyed the game Friday night.

I heard the Wheat boys were fast...I looked up Brandon's track performance last year.  Wonder if this speed comes from his Grandpa?  Very impressive.

We still need to raise over $1000 for the Gridiron Digest to cover this seasons bills. If you have not donated to become a booster now would be a good time.

Steve's a lot faster now after having some body parts replaced.
