In other exciting news, the team was invited to play a mini-game against Canon-Mac during half-time at the Steelers-Redskins game last Sunday. The boys and parents were more than thrilled with this opportunity to play at Heinz Field! Neither the rain nor the cold could dampen their spirits!

We are all extremely proud of this team of young men!  Please come and cheer them to victory at the game this Saturday!
