The season is about over for varsity football teams this year. Coach Justin Goodson reported recently that he felt confident that his team would be in the playoffs, having won nearly all their games at that point. Palm Desert High School usually does have a good ball team and the night Bill and Alice attended the Homecoming game was no exception. They soundly crushed Indio High School. We watched the game, of course, but it was more fun to watch the coach down on the field. With three years of coaching behind him now, Justin should have a good idea of what it will be like to be a high school coach, one of his longterm goals!
We also had the opportunity of being in Clovis, CA the night of grandson James' high school Homecoming game. They did not fare as well, however, and have not had a stunning season. It has been a good experience for James, though, as this was both his first AND last year to play football since he is a senior. He has always done Cross Country in the past, so this was a new opportunity for him. As a wide receiver he has still been able to draw on his running skills!
