Friday night the Fountain Fort Carson Trojans proved to be worthy of their pre-season ranking. The margin of error at the varsity level against an opponent of this caliber is slim, and we made too many mistakes to bring back a victory.
There were bright spots on both sides of the football, and the effort was evident. The defense played well in the second half, but allowed FFC too many big plays in the first. Offensively we were close to putting together a series or two, but couldn't find the solid consistancy needed to complete a drive with a touchdown.
It is very hard to duplicate the speed of game situations in practice; that's why it is so important to take every practice rep with an attitude of improvement. Every game is important, but once they are done they are gone. Use the lessons learned from your time under the Friday night lights to prepare you for the most important game on our schedule, THE NEXT ONE.

UPON FURTHER REVIEW
-Playing in the shadow of Fort Carson and the reverence they showed in displaying the flag made me proud to be an American, and VERY GRATEFUL for the men and women who serve our country in the Armed Forces
-Those new uniforms were TIGHT; I overheard a couple of Trojans give their approval when you walked by
-FFC has as nice as an on campus facility as I have ever seen
- Special Teams are HUGE - you have to be a play maker every time you take the field on a Special Team
- Execution is VITAL
- The goal line stand on the last play was about one thing : HEART
- The injury to the Trojan quarterback in the forth quarter was scary. I know he felt your prayers and wish him a speedy recovery
- The game day Dress Blacks looked sharp all the way from the freshmen getting on the bus to leave for the game to the varsity loading back up for the ride home
-Thank You to the worlds greatest Boosters who were there all day taking care of any need
