Good morning sports fans, this is Newshound
Hurst with your morning sports report. Yesterday’s Silver Cup Classic will go
down in history as one of the greatest games ever played in the 42 year old
history of the game. Justin L’s two long distance touchdown runs proved to
be the difference as the Bill’s defeated the Jets by a score of 13-7. Eric
M added a convert for the Bills. Ryan R had a Touchdown for the Jets
and Touchdown Tony Brown added a convert. Congratulations to Justin for
being named the Admiral Sub player of the game.
Winning Silver Cup Coach Mr. Russell called
this year’s Bills Team “The most complete team he has ever had the honour of
coaching”. Coach Russell also singled
out Nathan L, Justin W, Arvin C and rookies Alex A and Tyler C for their outstanding play in the Championship game. Coach Russell also had a word
of praise for the referees.” Mr. Koenig and Mr. Breuls did an outstanding job
controlling the game and allowing the players to decide the outcome.” At the
end of our interview Mr. Russell asked me to remind all of the WRMS students
and my fellow sports correspondent Ace Aitken that in the immortal words of WWE
Superstar Ric Flair “diamonds are forever and so is Mr. Russell. WOOOOOO”.
Coach Alfano was gracious in defeat. He
said he was proud of his team for the way they competed and was already planning
for next year’s game. Coach Alfano mentioned Julia F, Drew H,
Brice P, Emma R and T.J. G for outstanding efforts. “This was a
learning experience for me and my team and we will be back bigger and better
next year.” He also added that he was humbled and honoured to be part of the
Silver cup tradition here at the School.
On behalf of the Silver Cup committee I
would like to thank all of the staff and students who were involved as coaches,
players, cheerleaders, cheerleader coordinators, referees, linesman, field
ground crew, the dining room staff for the great BBQ, the “Nerd Herd” for supplying
the music and most of all, the staff and students that showed great school spirit
and came out and cheered at the pep rally and the game.
That’s it for the sports, have a happy and
safe Thanksgiving. I’m Newshound Hurst and I am out of here.
