The Lights Come Up For Friday Night

A short season has come to a climactic point. The Ambassador boys of fall are defending their 3 time Central Sierra League Championship. This time their nemesis is not in blue and Lantis Field will host the fateful event.

Ambassadors take their highest ranking yet, number 8 in CA, into the Championship game defending their title and an undefeated season. Their formidable opponents, the King Christian Crusaders are ranked 12 in CA after losing to the Ambassadors by 2 in the last regular season game. The last game featured 4 lead changes, 3 in the 2nd half, in a contest that wasn't decided until the Ambassdors forced QB Hurt to fumble the ball with 1:03 left in the game.

The maroon and gold Crusaders brought an undefeated record of their own to the table last week and would like nothing better than to take revenge on the Ambassadors. They'll try to do so with RB Hudson who had averaged 180 yards this season. The Ambassadors trimmed his yardage back, but only to 115 yards. The Ambassadors went to the air, but Travis Hemman definately got into the act  racking up 156 on the ground. The crescendo promises to be deafening this Friday.

What: Central Sierra League (8 man) Championship
