The Lake Country Chiefs’ 8th Grade Red team got the day started at 9 AM with a 38-6 thrashing of Tosa East that came about in the way a coach always likes to see—through complete control of the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.
If you imagine those challenges, add a few more, and then factor in having two-plus weeks to get your kids ready to play their very first tackle football game, then you have envisioned the life of a 5th-grade football coach.
The start of the regular season is still two weeks out, but from the looks of things at Saturday morning’s scrimmage in Mukwonago, the two seventh-grade teams for the Lake Country Chiefs are both on the right track to be ready.
