FHSU vs. Lincoln
October 26th @ Jefferson City, MO
W 45-35
At this point in the season our trips to Missouri were becoming more and more colorful. It was hard to adjust to going east for every away game (instead of south!), but once the leaves started changing it was almost a treat to get to drive through long stretches of Missouri countryside. Jefferson City's Lincoln University had a unique atmosphere. If you've ever seen the movie Drumline that's what you should picture when you think about the performances we witnessed before the game and at halftime. Very different than what we're used to, but such talent!! And so much fun to watch! The Tigers had us on our toes during this game. After an outstanding game against Southwest Baptist the week before we had a hard time keeping up the momentum. Marshall performed well on special teams and held strong blocking for the running game. At this point in the season he looks very confident on the field, both in his play and in his role on the team.

Game #9:
FHSU vs. South Dakota School of the Mines
November 22nd @ Hays, KS
W 63-17
This week we were back at home taking on the Hard Rockers (yes, that IS their nickname...). The Tigers must not have liked what it felt like in the 2nd half vs Lincoln the week before and came out strong for a 63-17 win against South Dakota. Marshall blocked for many touchdowns and continued to show his strength and speed on special teams. The Musil crew had a huge contingent with us this weekend. I can't even express how wonderful it was this season to have an entire area of the stands FULL of friends and family cheering for our Tiger. It was like a little family reunion every other weekend :)

Game #10:
FHSU vs. Central Missouri
November 9th @ Warrensburg, MO
L 34-48
This weekend the Tigers traveled to Warrensburg to battle the Mule-kickers of Central Missouri. Even though the 2nd half of the season had been rolling strong, the team couldn't come out with a win this weekend. It was a hard-fought game, but the Tigers fell back into some of their bad habits from the beginning of the season and came away with the loss. The bright spot in the weekend was enjoying the game with some of our Kansas City family and Marshall's best friends from Osborne. Tim's son Nick and his family joined us from Gladstone, MO and we had such a good time with Ryan and Jada! My dad's cousin Jodi and her family also joined us from Olathe. Her sweet family is always a joy to be around...and there's always laughter involved! Mom's best friend from Osborne, Lisa, had been joining us at many of the FHSU home games. This weekend her son and daughter met us in Warrensburg and Mom and I thoroughly enjoyed catching up with Aubrey and Aaron during the game.
