Spirit Fingers

Like any other Friday evening in the fall, we are packing up our blankets, foam fingers, and air horns (not really) and following the Madera High School football team to their playing location.

Destination tonight? Lee DaSilva Field, MHS Home, for the annual Homecoming Game.

Stats on our favorite player:

Name: Anthony Mindt
Number: 5
Position: Quarterback, Defensive Linebacker, Tight End
Year: Junior
Height/Weight: 6'2" / 183 lbs.
Future Goals: History Teacher or Athletic Trainer
GPA: 4.2

Little Anthony (not so little, as you can see, but 10 years my minor, so I can still call him that) has many, many years owed to him as a fan. Between my sister and me, we made sure Anthony spent every waking minute at a softball field, soccer field, volleyball court, or golf course. So, remembering that, we show up to every game (okay...most games) with some 'fwends' (a term Anthony coined when he was 4) and cheer him on.

Madera will be playing Clovis High, and we'll be rooting for Madera, the underdogs! So get out your spirit fingers and root for the boys in blue!

Go Madera!
