ANDOVER Football
A
lthough the 2016 season may not have started the way we would have liked, we have been persistent in our efforts to improve since the beginning of our journey. It would have been easy for us to pack up our bags and call it quits. However, Andover football does not give up that easily. Every player wears their jersey with pride and holds their head high. During practice, we improve together and learn from our mistakes. We are not a group of individuals; we are a unified team. One person cannot carry the entire team on their back. Each teammate must accomplish their individual tasks in order for us to collectively achieve success. In our second year at Andover, we have learned that Big Blue football is more than just a commitment to the game we all love. It is about flying to the ball every single down and never letting up, no matter the situation. Every time we hit the field, we have confidence in each other and know that our teammates have our backs. This year, a strong core of returning players has stepped up to the challenge, filling the void left by last year’s seniors. The experience of the returning players has been crucial to the team dynamic, as they have embodied the group’s values both on and off the field. They also have helped newer players understand the foundations of Andover football. The enthusiasm of our new players, coupled with the leadership of the returning players, has formed bonds that will drive the team to success. In our final game of the season, we are determined to end on a positive note. Let’s Wreck the Ex!
