Spring Football Southside

Alex (40) white jersey,  Austin red jersey.  It is strange to see them out there together.
Alex running for a touchdown during the spring game.  WAY TO GO  


 Spring football has come and gone.  Last night was the Spring game and it was  a great night to watch some football.  Alex is number 40 in the white Jersey.  Austin is one of the quarterbacks so his jersey is red.  

School is almost over.  Alex is out unless he takes a couple of finals.  Austin is almost out of Ramsey Junior High.  He has to take his semester test which are next Tuesday and Wednesday.  We have had great years at both schools.  I can not believe my boys are both going to be at Southside next year.  Alex a senior ( that could make me cry)  and Austin a sophomore.  Time goes by so fast.

Aiden Gregory Gibson

This is the newest member of the Gibson family.  Aiden Gregory Gibson.  They are starting him off right wearing a hog hat.  We will be teaching him to call those hogs very soom.

Lucas Michale



I got to keep Lucas for a little while today and just had to take some pictures of him.  He is already one month old.  He was very good.

Southside 7A state track champions

7A State Track Champions
Alex threw shot for the team and came in fourth.  He only threw a couple of times this season for them and got Second in Conference so he got to go to the state meet and be part of the championship team.

Southside boys won the 7A state track meet on  Saturday  in Conway.  It was a lot of fun to watch all the events.   I could not believe how fast some of those kids were in the running events.  

Spring football

Austin is a quarterback and is practicing with the receivers.  I did not mind practice to much this week because they were not really hitting the quarterbacks.  He was a little safer.  
Alex and Drew will both be seniors next year.  I am already feeling a little sad.
Alex at spring football practice  I need to get some action shots of him.  I had a hard time getting shot indoors last week.  Maybe this will be a better week for outside practice.  

Spring football has been underway for a week now.  With Alex and Austin both playing football for Southside next year we have been able to watch both of them practice.   Austin is in the red jersey.  Alex is number 40 in the  white practice jersey.

Southside 7A state championship game

Alex and Austin  listening to Coach Jones after the 7a state championship game.

Alex at Baum Stadium before the Southside - Fayetteville 7A championship game.
It was a heartbreaker for Southside this weekend.  They lost in the championship game 2-0.  A bad call on a fly ball may have cost them the game.  They had a great year anyway and we are proud of the Southside baseball team.  

Alex will be going with the Southside track team to Conway next Saturday to throw shot put in the State Track Meet.  He qualified last week at the conference meet.  It was his first time to throw shot since his ninth grade year.  We are proud of him for making the State playoffs.
