unexpected 2017 ODYSSEY

Throughout an entire year, those three hundred and sixty five days, each day, something unexpected takes place. Whether it may be starting your first day of high school and it being better than what you expected, a hot day becomes a rainy quiet kind of day, having an unexpected test in one of your classes, walking into class and there is a guest speaker. We often plan for what we expect to happen in our lives. We constantly prepare for the planned and not the unplanned. Unexpected things take place every hour in every day and it often happens to every person.

STEP ASIDE Trailing through the linebacker to get to the quarterback, sophomore Colby Jackson will not let anything stop him.

“They think they can stop me, but little do they know that I am unstoppable,” Jackson said.

Take a break After coming off from offensive, a sip of gatorade is needed to hype back up the lost electrolytes. “ It does get very tiring running and tackling the other oppents, but this is what we are trained to do. This is what we practice for,” freshman and wide reciever Nick Doung said.

number uno Throwing up a one sign with his hands to indicate his team is number one, junior and wide reciever Brad McCann shouts out to the crowd “We makin’ you proud”. “I love to show love to my fans, they need the same attention that they give us,” Mccann said.

Starting fresh and beginning a new season with a winning record

Starting a new year with a whole new team of players, nerovus was an understatement. Afraid of not being able to come together as one and play as a team, they managed to put their fears a side. A total of four hours a practice everyday begnning in summer paid off.

“At first I was upset that the majority of my summer was going to be taken up by footbal, but once we started the first week of practice I realized this will help to better our new team,” Junior and linebacker Mark Cole said.

With streams of sweat and blood running down their bodies, they did not give up. When it came to the first game of the season, the bleachers were filled with almost the entire student body. Not wanting to dissapoint anybody at the school, they managed to give their all and gain a in against DeLand high school.

“I am not going to lie, I was terrified. Terrified of loosing especially with as big of a crowd we had. I do not ever remember having almost the entire student body at a game before. It was amazing to look up into the stands and see everybody screaming and cheering their hearts out for us,” senior Blake Torres said.

Every game was filled with majority of the student body. Home game or away, they were always showing up to the games to show their support. Everybody would always leave with their heads held high and cheering from excitement over pulling another win. This was a clean sweep, a new start to a new beginning for the football team. break time Discussing certain plays need to be made for the next two quarters during half time, Head Coach Bobby Beu Flay and assissant coach Andrew Hamilton pull out an IPad to do so. “One thing that I love is being able to hype the boys up even more during half time.

They come out stronger once half time is over,” Hamilton said.

rush time With full force and agellity, sophomore and wide reciver Johnathan Hudges takes a storll down the fourty yard line. “I will stop at nothing to become better with cathing my opponent so he does not score,” Hudges said.

Down set hike Preparing for take off and passing the ball to a wide reciever, quarter back Billy Nicks will not stop at anything. “I love tricking the other teams, making them do double takes,” Nicks said.
