”BEAT
the IRISH!!!”
Ursuline
week! Week 9 is here already and the dreaded Irish stand in our
way. Cardinal Mooney holds a 36 (wins) – 15 (losses) &
3 (ties) record against their arch-rival from Wick Avenue. Last
season Ursuline ended a 6 game losing streak to the Cards with a
10-7 victory.
We
are ranked 1st in the DIII – Region 9 computer play-off standings.
We are also ranked #1 in the State of Ohio in the AP Division III
rankings. This week will put both of those rankings to the test,
as the 5 & 2 Irish try to spoil the Cardinals undefeated season.
This game is very spirited and very hard fought every year, this
will be no different!
The
Cardinal Nation needs to be there in force to support these young
men, Ursuline will! Believe it or not folks, fans CAN and sometimes
DO play a role in the emotion of the team they root on. If you didn’t
believe that, all you had to do was witness the fan reaction to
adverse conditions this past Friday night in Akron. The fans were
loud and boisterous and cheering on their Cards in spite of the
surroundings. That outpouring did seem to spur on the team and saw
them turn it up even a notch higher. From that point (midway through
the 2nd quarter) on…that football would NOT be denied! So
keep that in mind fans….when it’s cold or raining or
we’re down in a game…these young men DO sense the crowd
behind them and it DOES mean something to them to hear us cheering
for them!
It’s
crunch time gentlemen….let’s see who wants it more!
This
week is Mission #9. The Ursuline Irish! Take care of business!
WE ARE MOONEY
–----- they are not!
Always,
The Rock
