My video won't post so I've typed out the speech. It was a great season and we're so proud of Hayden for doing so well!! Before handing out trophies they said a little about each player. Here's what was said about our boy...
Coach Jon
“Hayden….You looking sharp, you gotta date later?
So Hayden, most of you guys probably know, Hayden didn’t get much rest
on the field. You were out there most of
the time on offense and defense. He went
out there, he’s one of those kids who just did his job, did it well, didn’t say
anything about it, didn’t complain. You
played hard man”
Coach Tory
“You
didn’t even know he was hurt unless you saw him crying”
Coach Jon
“Yeah,
that’s the one thing, if you get hurt, you need to tell a coach! Cause I know we had a game when you weren’t
feeling so red hot. You gotta let us
know. I can’t ask for any more
though. That’s a heart man. You want to get out there and compete. You can’t train people to do that. You either got it or you don’t. Way to play hard, all year long. Thank you.”
Coach Tory
“Hayden. Hayden was
one of those kids that slipped under the radar but I really want to make sure
that when we send him back we give him another big heads up because he was the
biggest part of our team on both sides of the ball, but he wasn’t the
star. You know what I mean? He was that kid who….
Coach Jon
“He was
that piece of the puzzle that’s gotta be there or it’s not gonna work.”
Coach Jeremiah
“We
couldn’t have done it without you”
Coach Tory
“When we
did that commercial he was on the bottom of the pyramid getting crushed and
crying and nobody knew it! Until he
finally couldn’t take it anymore and he collapsed. (something something
something about big heart that I couldn't make out) You’re awesome.”
