    Highland vs. Olympus tonight

    I'm sure there are several former graduates of each school here on this message board. I'm so desperate for the season to start, I just might watch the game.

    I hope you can get the game in Canada!

    Look for my son (27)

    That's the crazy thing—of course I can get the game ... but I won't be able to get half of Utah's games.

    Go Rams!

    I'm even in Salt Lake. But I will not make it to the game.

    Speaking of the amazing Highland Rams, pretty cool article about one of their players. http://www.sltrib.com/sports/4274322...iter-impresses

    He is a great kid. In yesterday's JV game he lined up at fullback and scored from the 1 yard line. It was fun to see the boys celebrate his success.

    That's awesome. I wondered if he ever played. I saw on Twitter that the score going into the 4th was 5-3. Sounds awesome.

    I wasn't playing super close attention but was one of the coaches interviewed sporting the Drum and Feather? I'd like to see more of that in prep football.

    One of the better HS games I've seen in awhile. I'm a Highland alum, but, my kid plays for Oly now --- so the Rams can KISS IT!

    Seriously, after a lot of years in the south, an evening at HS football is just what you do -- the whole town gets involved -- and the atmosphere at those games are unbeatable, but, I've got to admit the atmosphere at the two games I've attended in Utah have been fabulous as well. Pleasantly surprised.

    This Friday -- Highland @ Olympus. 7p.

    Both teams are a bit down but they'll put on a good show anyway I'm sure.

    Well that stunk didn't it? Highland gives payback for last year.

    Fun game for us. Sorry.

    My boy had a good game on defense. Started the game with a forced fumble and a sack. On offense he blocked well but couldn’t haul in a TD at the end.
